Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Although Greek and Latin poetry from late antiquity each poses similar questions and problems, a real dialogue between scholars on both sides is even now conspicuously absent. A lack of evidence impedes discussion of whether there was direct interaction between the two language traditions. This volume, however, starts from the premise that direct interaction should never be a prerequisite for a meaningful comparative and contextualising analysis of both late antique poetic traditions. A team of leading and emerging scholars sheds new light on literary developments that can be or have been regarded as typical of the period and on the poetic and aesthetic ideals that affected individual works, which are both classicizing and 'un-classical' in similar and diverging ways. This innovative exploration of the possibilities created by a bilingual focus should stimulate further explorations in future research. Adopts and promotes a bilingual focus on the Greek and Latin poetry of late antiquity. Sheds light on the literary developments regarded as typical of the period and explores the poetic and aesthetic ideals that affected individual Greek and Latin poems.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'In the past few years, it has been possible to notice parallel developments in the study of both Latin and Greek late antique poetry, two neighbouring and growing scholarly fields. Recently published studies reveal an increased focus on the contemporary context and, in relation to that, on the 'otherness' of late antique aesthetics, when compared with the poetics of earlier periods that classically trained scholars have been taught to admire. Long considered poetry of bad taste from a period of decline, late antique poetry fascinates classicists today mainly because of its otherness, its productive reception of the classical period, its innovations in terms of literary forms, and the creativity with which it responds to the 'seismic cultural changes' of late antique society'--.
