Description

Scholar's name and short note by her to ffep (R. E. Fantham). Top corners are bumped. Dustjacket is intact but has tears and writing to DJ flap in pen. A bit of loss to DJ . ; Combats the common notion that the Thebaid is an exercise in anachronism, an episodic narrative of the Theban saga. He shows that the poem can and indeed must be reat as an elaborate and sustained allegory of the emotions-- a study in the extremes of human behaviour. ; 366 pages
