Beschreibung
Q. Curtius Rufus (1st century CE) is one of the most important historians of Alexander the Great. However, existing editions in use today are philologically unsatisfactory for a number of reasons, and the aim of this work is to present a sounder text. This edition is the first to pay adequate attention to the second family of manuscripts, as well as placing the conjectures of the respective philologists in their correct context.

Rezension
"Es bleibt zu hoffen, dass das wertvolle Arbeitsinstrument der historischen und vor allem der philologisch-literaturwissenschaftlichen Curtiusforschung neue Impulse geben wird."Hartmut Wulfram in: Museum Helveticum Universität Basel Vol. 67 Fasc. 4 (2010) "Alexander scholars and those interested in an author who presents numerous interesting textual problems will find an invaluable aid in Lucarini’s new edition, which serves both to sum up the current state of Curtian textual studies and to provide a reasonably sound text of this important source. Lucarini succeeds admirably in preserving much of the best work of his predecessors, especially Hedicke and Bardon."Lee M. Fratantuono in: Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2010.08.06
