BASP 51 (2014)



BASP 51 (2014) has arrived. See the table of contents below. BASP 52 (2015) still welcomes submissions in a "congress language" (English, French, German, and Italian). Please submit your manuscripts to me (peter.vanminnen@uc.edu) for consideration.
Thanks in part to the technical support made possible by the Semple Fund of the University of Cincinnati, BASP is the cheapest papyrological journal around, made available to members of the American Society of Papyrologists for an annual subscription of $35 ($16 for student members) and to institutions for an annual subscription of $65 (plus shipping). Check out http://papyrology.org/index.php/membership
Copies of books for review can be sent to the reviews editor: Arthur Verhoogt (Department of Classical Studies, University of Michigan, 2160 Angell Hall, 435 S. State Street, Ann Arbor, MI 48109-1003, USA).
