This book offers a new edition and comprehensive commentary of the
extant fragments of genealogical and antiquarian epic dating to the
archaic period (8th-6th cent. BC). By means of a detailed study of
the multifaceted material pertaining to the remains of archaic
Greek epic other than Homer, Hesiod, and the Homeric Hymns, it
provides readers with a critical reassessment of the ancient
evidence, allows access to new material hitherto unnoticed or
scattered in various journals after the publication of the three
standard editions now available to us, and offers a full-scale
commentary of the extant fragments. This book fills a gap in the
study of archaic Greek poetry, since it offers a guiding tool for
the further exploration of Greek epic tradition in the archaic
period and beyond.
