In the context of recent challenges to long-standing assumptions
about the nature of Ennius' Annals and the editorial methods
appropriate to the poem's fragmentary remains, this volume seeks to
move Ennian studies forward on three axes. First, a re-evaluation
of the literary and historical precedents for and building blocks
of Ennius' poem in order to revise the history of early Latin
literature. Second, a cross-fertilization of recent critical
approaches to the fields of poetry and historiography. Third,
reflection on the tools and methods that will best serve future
literary and historical research on the Annals and its reception.
Adopting different approaches to these broad topics, the fourteen
papers in this volume illustrate how much can be said about Ennius'
poem and its place in literary history independent of any
commitment to inevitably speculative totalizing interpretations.
