| Sumario: | "In the first monograph in English devoted to Bacchylides' poetry in over twenty years, David Fearn offers an original and wide-ranging approach to the Greek lyric poet, exploring his engagement with poetic tradition and evaluating the complex relationship of the poetry to its multiple contexts of performance. Fearn shows how specific details of poetic language in Bacchylides' manipulation of the style, diction, and mythology of the lyric and epic traditions form the heart of cultural and political engagements with a variety of patrons, commissioning states, and performance circles."--Jacket. |
