Hexametrical Genres from Homer to Theocritus
Faraone, Christopher Athanasious (Edward Olson Professor of Classics, Edward Olson Professor of Classics, University of Chicago)
The book discusses short, non-epic, and under-appreciated hexametrical genres, such as oracles, incantations, and laments, and gains new insight into their ritual performance, their early history, and how poets from Homer to Theocritus embedded or imitated these genres to enrich their own poems.
