Description

Even the most determined enemy of Festschriften might baulk at refusing one to Walter Burkert, for there are few scholars whose work has been more universally admired and applauded. On the occasion of his 65th birthday in 1996 a group of former pupils (Graf, Riedweg and Szlezák) and fellow scholars of Greek religion gathered at the Römerstiftung René Clavel in Augst near Basel to celebrate his achievement with a symposium. The proceedings constitute this volume, with one exception; Martin West's contribution has since appeared as chapter 3 of The East Face of Helicon (Oxford 1997). In its place in the Festschrift he offers a Greek carmen gratulatorium of singular charm.
