Description

Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing. Top corner lightly bumped. ; Nagy challenges the widely held view that the development of lyric poetry in Greece represents the rise of individual innovation over collective tradition. Arguing that Greek lyric represents a tradition in its own right, Nagy shows how the form of Greek epic is in fact a differentiation of forms found in Greek lyric. ; 1.75 x 9.75 x 6.5 Inches; 414 pages
