Dear friends and colleagues,

I am pleased to send you the following announcement.  Donald Mastronarde

First Open-Access Digital Book from New Series

California Classical Studies is pleased to announce the publication of
a digital edition of Leslie Kurke, The Traffic in Praise: Pindar and
the Poetics of Social Economy, a reprint with corrections of the
edition of 1990. The book is available as a Print on Demand paperback
($29.95) and may be read in page view at the open-access eScholarship
repository operated by the California Digital Library of the
University of California. In addition, thanks to the support of a
grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and of endowed funds at the
University of Calfornia, the short embargo period has been waived to
celebrate the first title published in the series, and so the full PDF
is also downloadable immediately at the repository. It is expected
that the title will also be sold in ePub format in the near future.

The editors of California Classical Studies are eager to receive
submissions of long-form scholarship for peer-review, including hybrid
works that include an extended textual element suitable for printing
along with associated files to be offered in digital form only. The
series aims to disseminate basic research (editing and analysis of
primary materials both textual and physical), data-heavy research, and
highly specialized research. For more about the profile of the series
and the process of submission, please visit
