The most up-to-date history of Greek literature from its Homeric
origins to the age of Augustus. Greek literary production
throughout this period of some eight centuries is embedded in its
historical and social context, and Professor Dihle sees this
literature as a historical phenomenon, a particular mode of
linguistic communication, with its specific forms developing both
in an organic way and in response to the changing world around. In
this it differs from conventional humanist approaches to Greek and
Latin literature which analyse the works as objects of timeless
value independent of any historical setting or purpose.
This magisterial survey by one of the leading European authorities
on classical literature will establish itself, as it already has in
Germany, as the standard account of the subject.
