More about the book

Focusing on the high poetry of Ptolemaic Alexandria and later narrative literature, this collection of essays by Richard Hunter explores the evolution of Greek literature post-Alexander. It delves into various genres, including comedy and ancient literary criticism, while examining themes such as the recreation of the past, poetic allusion, and the moral purposes of literature. Hunter presents a dynamic view of literature that embraces experimentation and interaction with both historical and contemporary influences, rather than being constrained by them.
