Riassunto

Within the context of ancient Greek poetry as linked to the realities of social and political life, nine contributors to a 1994 conference of the American Academy in Rome reconstruct the performance context of a wide array of Greek poetry, including the epic, tragedy, lyric elegy, and proverb. No index. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.

Recensione

"It is with real enthusiasm that I recommend Poet, Public, and Performance in Ancient Greece. It brings together the perspectives of both American and Italian scholars influenced by the work of Bruno Gentili. Gentili's vision of archaic Greek poetry as context-bound and performed before a public has created the horizon within which these essays take their orientation. Each and every one of these contributions calls our attention to the public and performed character and contexts of the variety of poems and speech acts discussed." -- Diskin Clay, Duke University
