Synopsis

A Manual of the History of Greek and Roman Literature by August Heinrich Matthiae is a comprehensive guide to the literary works of ancient Greece and Rome. The book provides a detailed overview of the major literary genres of these two civilizations, including epic poetry, tragedy, comedy, history, and philosophy.

He then proceeds to examine the major works of Greek and Roman literature in chronological order, providing a detailed analysis of each work's themes, structure, and historical context. Throughout the book, Matthiae emphasizes the continuity and evolution of literary traditions across different periods and genres, highlighting the ways in which later writers built upon and transformed earlier works.
