Drawing on an extensive knowledge of the critical history of
Olympian One, Professor Gerber here presents a thorough analysis of
the language thought, myth, structure, and poetic technique of
Pindar's most famous ode. He deals with virtually every word in the
poem, elucidating disputed passages, defining Pindar's use of
imagery and myth and his structural techniques, and revealing the
significance of his statements about the gods, the victor, and his
own poetic practice. In doing so he makes a major contribution to
Pindaric studies, aiding an understanding of this ode in
particular, and of the poet's other works in general.
