Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
A collection of largely unpublished papers by the distinguished Hellenist W. S. Barrett.They include detailed discussions of Stesichorus' Geryoneis and various odes of Pindar and Bacchylides, a major study of Pindar's metrical practice, substantial pieces on Tragedy, and notes on other authors including Thucydides, Menander, and Seneca.
MoreLong description:
W. S. Barrett (1914-2001) was one of the finest Hellenists of the second half of the twentieth century, known above all for his celebrated edition of Euripides' Hippolytus. This volume of his collected scholarly papers includes five articles published between 1954 and 1978, together with a much larger number of others that remained unpublished in his lifetime and are made known here for the first time. They deal mainly with Greek lyric poetry (Stesichorus, Pindar, Bacchylides) and Tragedy. Students of Greek literature will welcome this unexpected posthumous addition to Barrett's oeuvre, as well as the reappearance of the published articles.
Few scholars are as meticulous in their writings as Barrett was or have his command of Greek and we should be grateful to West for making these unpublished works available.
