Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the life and work of Pindar, a renowned Greek lyric poet whose career coincided with the flourishing of classical Greece. The author examines Pindar's poetry, particularly his epinikia - odes celebrating athletic victories - in the context of the religious and cultural significance of the ancient Greek games. The book explores the poet's intimate connection with Delphi and the Delphic priesthood, his eclectic approach to mythology, and his insightful reflections on the nature of human fortune and the role of divine intervention in human affairs. The author also examines the influence of artistic trends, particularly those of sculpture and architecture, on Pindar's poetic imagination and expression. Pindar's work is presented as a reflection of his time, revealing the spirit of classical Greece, its values, beliefs, and anxieties. The author skillfully illuminates Pindar's unique poetic voice, his mastery of language and imagery, and his enduring impact on subsequent generations of writers and thinkers. This book offers a compelling exploration of Pindar's life and works, providing readers with a rich and insightful perspective on a pivotal period in ancient Greek history and literature.
