This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book on Catullus, who lived and wrote in the years immediately preceding the rise of the Roman Empire, presents an examination of his poems, providing a wealth of information for academics and scholars. It offers insights into the poetic techniques of a writer who was a master of rhythm, vivid language, and the interplay of wit and emotion. The author creates a vivid picture of the Hellenistic world of Catullus, with its distinctive culture, social structure, and religious beliefs that permeated literature and art of the time. Also discussed are the complexities of Catullus's love life, his circle of friends, and the political and cultural debates raging in Rome during this tumultuous period. The author positions Catullus's poetry within the literary landscape, and convincingly argues that his work stands apart due to its exploration of personal and public emotions, opening the door for other Latin poets to follow suit. A nuanced and illuminating study, this book will appeal to a multidisciplinary audience with interests in Latin literature, the late Roman Republic, and ancient history. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781332008056_0
