On Imitation in Latin Poetry

Ajutor

Copertina de Gian Biagio Conte: Stealing the Club from Hercules (PDF)

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.
