On Imitation in Latin Poetry

In the first part of this volume on the literary technique of imitation, the author analyses Virgil’s working over the text of Homer which paradoxically represents a true act of artistic originality. In the second chapter, the author reconstructs the presuppositions of a method and explores at the same time its limitations.
