Questions about how ancient Greek texts establish their authority,
reflect on each other, and project their own truths have become
central for a wide range of recent critical discourses. In this
volume, an influential group of international scholars examines
these themes in a variety of poetic and rhetorical genres. The
result is a series of striking and original readings from different
critical perspectives that display the centrality of these
questions for understanding the poetic and rhetorical aims of
ancient Greek texts. Characterized by a combination of close
attention to philological detail and theoretical sophistication,
the essays in this volume make a compelling case for this kind of
focused, critically informed dialogue about the nature of ancient
textual praxis. Students of classical literature will find a wealth
of critical insights and challenging new readings of many familiar
texts.
