This book examines the arrangement and interpretation of the
papyrus fragments named the "new Simonides." Specifically, it
considers what evidence these fragments offer for Simonides'
elegiac compositions on the Persian Wars. The current orthodoxy is
that they represent three separate elegies on individual battles,
one on Artemisium, one on Salamis, and one on Plataea. Kowerski
evaluates what evidence these fragments provide for these
compositions, and in doing so, questions the validity of the
current interpretation of the "new Simonides."
