PREFACE

This book derives from a conference held in Aberdare Hall, Cardiff, 1921 September, 1995. We are grateful to the University of Wales Institute of Classics and Ancient History for including both the original conference and the present volume in its programmes, and to all those who contributed to the Cardiff conference as speakers, chairs, and participants, and made it such a lively and enjoyable occasion. In particular, we should like to thank the British Academy for its contribution towards the expenses of our overseas speakers; the Warden of Aberdare Hall (now, very sadly, no longer with us) and her staff for providing excellent facilities and constant, friendly service; the School of History and Archaeology of the University of Wales Cardiff, for general support; and Karen Pierce and Louis Rawlings for ensuring that everything ran smoothly and an appropriately convivial atmosphere was created.

The publication of this volume was much helped by all our contributors prompt submission of revised papers and proofs, by the unfailing advice and assistance, academic and technical, of Anton Powell, as Director of the Institute and manager of the Classical Press of Wales, and finally by Ernest Buckleys rapid and expert production of copy.

Note that in the application of conventions we have aimed for consistency within each chapter, but have allowed authors their own preferred spellings of Greek names (thus both Alkaios and Alcaeus appear) and transliterations of Greek words (with or without indicating long vowels), as well as their choice of American or English spelling, and dates rendered as BC or BCE.
