Isbn: 9780199271344 - a commentary on ovid's fasti, book 6 (4 Ergebnisse)

Zustand: Wie Neu. Zustandsbeschreibung: textsauberes Exemplar mit leichten Gebrauchsspuren, leicht berieben/clean text pages, minor traces of use, slightly rubbed. This comprehensive and scholarly study explores the close correlation between the poem and Augustan culture, dynastic politics, and Roman religion. In her study of the final book, Joy Littlewood analyses Ovid's account of the origins of the festivals of June, demonstrating that Book 6 is effectively a commemoration of Roman War, and elegantly provides a framing bracket to balance the opening celebration of Peace in Book 1. She explores the subtle interweaving of pietas and virtus in Roman religion and its relationship to Augustan ideology, the depth and accuracy of Ovid's antiquarianism, and his audacious expansion of generic boundaries.
