This book analyzes the genesis of Roman literature from its beginnings to its arrival as a new and independent force on the wider stage of world literature. Beginning with the basic forms of chanting and dance in pre-literary Roman society, the author explores the role of poets and the task of poetry as this unique voice began to express personal and national identity through the adoption and adaptation of literary forms from Greece. Through a close examination of Roman authors and their significant contributions, the author uncovers and explicates the wisdom, insights, and creativity that has made the literary output of the early Roman Republic a cornerstone of Western culture.
