Vandaag op Bryn Mawr Classical Review een zeer lovende recensie van de bundel ter ere van Jos de Waele:
This lavish and generously illustrated volume in honor of Jos de Waele (who died in an accident in 2001) is a special edition of the elegant series of Studi della Soprintendenza archeologica di Pompei. Its 34 articles are divided evenly between studies of Classical architecture and Pompeiana, reflecting the wide interests, projects and personality of de Waele. These are recounted by Roger J.A. Wilson (pp. 9-17), who notes de Waele’s research on ancient metrology, architecture, and the sites of Agrigento and Heraclea Minoa; his last project was at Pompeii. De Waele’s practicality and spirit of enquiry have inspired the tone of many of the articles here; his published works are listed on pp. 16-17.
…
It would be a pity if scholars overlooked some of these articles because they assumed that Omni pede stare encompassed only Pompeii, Roman architecture, and classical metrology. I have cited page references to aid any who may need to request isolated articles; relevant bibliography is included in each entry. In variety, interest and technical acumen as well as lavish format, this medley is a fitting tribute to a scholar whose own work touched upon so many fields.
