Lyric Texts and Lyric Consciousness presents a model for studying
the history of lyric as a genre. Prof Miller draws a distinction
between the work of the Greek lyrists and the more condensed,
personal poetry that we associate with lyric. He then confronts the
theoretical issues and presents a sophisticated, Bakhtinian reading
of the development of the lyric form from its origins in archaic
Greece to the more individualist style of Augustan Rome. This book
will appeal to classicists and, since English translations of
passages from the ancient authors are provided, to those who
specialise in comparative literature.
