Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book focuses on the works of the Roman poet Catullus, who lived in the late 1st century BC. The author examines the strong influence of Hellenistic poetry on Catullus's work, as well as the ways in which Catullus sometimes departed from his Greek models. The author highlights the Alexandrian poets, such as Callimachus, as significant influences on Catullus, and traces the ways in which Catullus adapted Alexandrian themes, meters, and diction in his own poetry. The book also explores the ways in which Catullus's poetry differed from that of his predecessors, such as his experimentation with personal and erotic themes. The author argues that Catullus's work represents a significant turning point in Roman poetry, as it marked a shift away from the more traditional, didactic style of earlier Roman poetry towards a more personal and subjective style. The author concludes by emphasizing the continuing influence of Catullus's poetry on later writers, including Horace and Ovid, and its importance in the development of Latin literature as a whole. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
