      This paper classifies those circulant graphs for which both the graph and its complement are edge-transitive. The author shows that such a graph must be either a disjoint union of copies of a complete graph, or the complement of such a disjoint union, or a Paley graph on a prime number of vertices. The proof is short, using a result of Schur on Burnside groups and a result of Chao on symmetric graphs with prime order. A digraph version of the result is also given.
