Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the Hesiodic tradition, a major chapter in Greek Literature that had a crucial influence throughout Western civilization. Consisting of essays by noted scholars, the book presents original insights on Hesiod's "Works and Days" showing the wealth of information it preserves about the economic and cultural history of archaic Greece. From the ancient farming techniques and methods of archaic economic life the essays go on to the folk tradition embedded in the poem, and the deep religious convictions of Hesiod, offering innovative interpretations on the themes of justice, genealogy, and myth prevalent in his work. The book not only illuminates the "Works and Days" by closely analyzing its verses but also demonstrates Hesiod's continuing relevance as a major thinker and a genuine voice of ancient Greece. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
