Statius and the Silvae. Poets, Patrons and Epideixis in the Graeco-Roman World

Auteur: Hardie, A.
Editeur: Francis Cairns Publications Ltd
Although writing in Latin, Statius (first-century AD) was, by origin and training, a Greek poet, and his collection of "occasional" poems, the Silvae, are a Roman extension of contemporary trends in Greek display poetry. No reading of the Silvae can be accurate without an understanding of this Graeco-Roman poetic milieu.
