Wedding, Gender, and Performance in Ancient Greece (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book reconstructs the wedding song tradition in Ancient Greece, and looks at how the wedding song tradition has shaped some of the great surviving literature, most notably epic and lyric poetry. By recovering a lost genre, we can detect important voices from the ancient Greek world, and see the nuances with which different poets used it.
