Catulls Epigramme Im Kontext Hellenistischer Dichtung

ISBN: 9783110194661 出版年：2012 页码：248 Hartz, Cornelius De Gruyter

The Roman poet Catullus is regarded as the founder of private love poetry. As a member of the group of poets known as "Neoterics" he had a particular influence on the literary life of Rome in the first century BC. To date, however, insufficient attention has been paid to his shortest poems, the epigrams, and neither their artistry has been adequately appreciated, nor how much they owe to Hellenistic poetry. This is now demonstrated for all 48 of Catullus´ epigrams using methods of modern literary scholarship.
