Římská literatura a její kontexty

Tato série se ponořuje do bohatého světa starověké římské literatury a zkoumá její hluboké spojení s historickými, kulturními a společenskými silami, které ji formovaly. Každá kniha nabízí originální výzkum a pronikavé eseje, které záměrně podněcují diskusi mezi čtenáři latinských textů i klasiky. Cílem je obohatit porozumění římskému písemnictví a jeho trvalému odkazu.

    Focusing on the Roman response to Greek poetry from the last three pre-Christian centuries, this book delves into critical readings that reveal the complexity of Hellenistic poetry. It highlights the significance of Callimachus and his contemporaries while examining the unique contributions of Roman poets like Catullus, Virgil, and Horace. The studies explore themes such as poets' perspectives on their work, the symbolism of Dionysus/Bacchus, and the transformation of Greek bucolic into Latin pastoral, offering a richer understanding of these literary figures.
