...Dr. Henry Bender has vast experience in such preparation, since he has been teaching the AP syllabus for 12 years... Dr. Phyllis Forsyth has extensive publications on Catullus, including a student edition. Students and teachers alike are thus in capable hands.
Both new and experienced AP instructors will find the texts extremely valuable in preparing their students for the Latin Literature Exam. -- Helena Dettmer, University of Iowa, The Classical Outlook
...the main introduction to the student volume contains a concise but balanced picture of current scholarly thought about Catullus. It gives a wide range of views on his life and work and sets the man clearly in his historical context. A real effort has been made to avoid trotting out the usual textbook platitudes. The metrical explanations are also particularly helpful in dealing with the varied style of Catullan poetry. -- Lisa Bligh, University of Edinburgh, Prudentia
This text is an excellent choice for high-school AP classes and [...] it is an acceptable choice for college courses as well. -- Reginald L. Hannaford, New England Classical Journal, vol. XXV, no. 2
This well organized student text and accompanying teacher's manual make available the classroom material developed be an experienced and successful highschool teacher of Advanced Placement Catullus. Bender credits his co-author Phyllis Forsyth for many suggestions and corrections as well as complete revision of the intoduction and bibliography. -- New England Classical Journal
