Literature in the Greek and Roman Worlds: A New Perspective

by Oliver Taplin (editor)

This book consists of seventeen essays by a team of international scholars exploring aspects of the reception of literature from the earliest surviving Greek poetry to the demise of classical literature at the end of the Roman empire. Deploying fresh insights to map out lively and provocative
surveys, the contributors examine all genres of the classical world--epic, lyric, tragedy, comedy, history, philosophy, rhetoric, epigram, elegy, pastoral, satire, biography, epistle, declamation, panegyric--in search of answers to the questions of who were the genres for and what did these people
make of them.

Hea asi. Stiililt enamasti pagana raskepärane, aga seda väärt (IQ kohe tõusis :)). Mõningaid faktipärleid oli muidugi ka, ehkki kahjuks vähevõitu mu jaoks.
