We have received The School Calendar and Handbook of Exami-
ft-ail:Ms and Open Scholarships, 1892. With a Preface by F. Storr. (Whittaker and Co.)—Mr. Storr is, we take it, adverse to compulsory Greek, but very properly hopes that "the old Universities, baying taken their stand upon Greek, will have the courage of their opinions, and make the study a reality instead of the wretched pretence that has made 'Little-Go Greek' a by- word."—The sixth volume of " The Cambridge Shakespeare," Works of William Shakespeare, edited by William Aldis Wright (Macmillan and Co.) The volume contains Troilus and Cressida, Coriolanus, Titus Andronicus, and Romeo and Juliet. —The annual volume (the fifth) of the Classical Review (David Nutt). It contains, besides the usual miscellany of reviews of classical books, English and foreign, disquisitions on topics, philological, antiquarian, &c., notes on passages in the classics, a number of specially valuable remarks on the two recent finds, the Aristotle and the Herondas papyri. We are glad to see that the Review prolongs its existence, and has a prosperous appearance. We wonder whether it would be possible to make it a little more interesting to the scholar whose tastes are chiefly of the literary kind.
