December 22, 1898 issue

This article presents information on the book "Pausanias's Description of Greece," translated by J.G. Frazer. Greek historian and geographer, Pausanias's description of Greece in the second century A.D., is supposed to be a landmark upon the constantly expanding domain of Hellenic Archaeology. His commentary brings into focus the scattered dissertations of specialists and the elusive broadsides of controversialists. Moreover, he has shown a surprising skill in digesting and clarifying for the judicious reader the important gist of those portentous tomes which register the resister results of vastly planned excavations.
