This book is an anthology of Greek poetry written during the third
to first centuries BC, the Hellenistic period. It is intended to
make available to undergraduates and graduate students a selection
of texts which are for the most part not easily accessible
elsewhere. The volume contains a wide and representative range of
poetry including hymns, didactic verse, pastoral poetry, epigrams
and epic. An introduction provides cultural and historical
background, and a full commentary elucidates problems of language
and reference in the texts. In this second edition, many notes have
been rewritten and the bibliography has been updated. The selection
has also been augmented with three hundred more lines of Greek text
(Theocritus poems 5 and 15), and is now more than 2000 lines in
length.
