Reviews

"The author is to be praised for not limiting herself to merely collecting funny or amusing bits and pieces, but for discussing thoroughly all the categories and instances. As such the book offers both a systematic collection of the relevant material and a serious study, in which the history of each of the types of play is traced from their first attestations till late antiquity. The author’s comments on individual words or even single letters are insightful and detailed. [...] This will certainly become a standard work for those interested in technopaignia and many related topics." Floris Overduin in Bryn Mawr Classical Review , 2011.03.61
