This volume collects the most recent essays of Richard Hunter, one
of the world's leading experts in the field of Greek and Latin
literature. The essays range across all periods of ancient
literature from Homer to late antiquity, with a particular focus
not just on the texts in their original contexts, but also on how
they were interpreted and exploited for both literary and more
broadly cultural purposes later in antiquity. Taken together, the
essays sketch a picture of a continuous tradition of critical and
historical engagement with the literature of the past from the
period of Aristophanes and then Plato and Aristotle in classical
Athens to the rich prose literature of the Second Sophistic.
Richard Hunter's earlier essays are collected in On Coming After
(Berlin 2008).
