Excerpt from Selections From the Roman Elegiac Poets: With Introduction and Notes
A large part of the pleasure which the preparation of this book has brought me has come in the form of suggestions and advice from others. For these I am indebted to my colleagues, notably to Professor Westcott, and to the editors of the series, Professor Gildersleeve, Professor Lodge, and Professor Slaughter.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book traces the evolution of the Latin love elegy as a literary form from its origins in the Greek elegiac poets such as Callimachus through its classic development in the Augustan age to its reception by later poets. The author examines the work of the major Augustan elegists: Gallus, Tibullus, Propertius, and Ovid, discussing their relationships with one another and with other poets of the time, and their participation in the social reforms of Augustus. In particular, the book focuses on the way these poets develop and refine the elegy as a means of personal expression, exploring themes of love, loss, and the search for meaning in life.
