Descriere

Much of the detail we have on the life of Crinagoras of Mytilene comes from his fifty-one surviving epigrams. This edition, comprising a new critical text of the poems supplemented by introduction and word-by-word commentary, offers a detailed analysis of this eloquent and dynamic body of work which is both authoritative and accessible.
