Authorship and Greek Song is a collection of papers dealing with
various aspects of authorship in the song culture of Ancient
Greece. In this cultural context the idea of the poet as author of
his poems is complicated by the fact that poetry in archaic Greece
circulated as songs performed for a variety of audiences, both
local and "global" (Panhellenic). The volume's chapters discuss
questions about the importance of the singers/performers; the
nature of the performance occasion; the status of the poet; the
authority of the poet/author and/or that of the performer; and the
issues of authenticity arising when poems are composed under a
given poet's name. The volume offers discussions of major authors
such as Pindar, Sappho, and Theognis.
