Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. In writing this book on the plays of New Comedy the author's aim is to fill a gap in the existing literature by concentrating on what one might look for in watching and reading these plays and why such an exercise might be pleasurable.

Cambridge University Press, Cambridge (.), 1999. XI,308p. Paperback. Nice copy. Like new. 'This splendid volume offers text and commentary on eight of the Idylls of Theocritus. The introduction offers sections on Theocritus, bucolic poetry, the locus amoenus, metre, language, and transmission. The discussion of bucolic poetry and its terminolgy is particular useful. (.) The introductions to the individual poems are as suggestive as they are informative. (.) H.'s eye for allusion is one of the great strenghts of this commentary. (.) This is a stimulating and learned volume, which will do much to encourage all areas of Theocritean studies.' (BRUCE GIBSON in The Classical Review (New Series), 2001, pp.234-36).…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This is the first full-scale commentary on poems by Theocritus since Gow's edition of 1950, and the first to exploit the recent revolution in the study of Hellenistic and Roman poetry; the poems included in this volume (Idylls 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 10, 11 and 13) are principally the bucolic poems which, through their influence on Virgil, established the Western pastoral tradition. The focus of the commentary is literary - both on how Theocritus exploited the classical heritage for a new type of poetry, and on what that poetry meant in the third century BC. The commentary, together with the introductory essays to each poem, makes a major contribution to the understanding of this extraordinary poetic form. The Introduction explores the meaning of 'bucolic', the presentation of a stylised countryside, the importance of eros in the bucolic world, and Theocritus' verbal and metrical style.…
