Focuses narrowly on bibliographical and information resources rather than on general scholarship to provide a resource for reference librarians, general readers, and classicists who have wandered outside their specialty. Describes and evaluates at length reference materials relating to Greek and Roman civilization from the Bronze Age through the sixth century A.D. Includes such fields as art and archaeology, history, language and literature, philology, and the history of the field of classicism itself. Most of the 667 cites works are in English and published through the end of 1994, though a few from 1995 are included. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
