Callimachus was one of the most important Greek poets, and can also
be one of the most rewarding to read. He was a pivotal figure in
the history of ancient literature and an influential presence in
later ancient poetry, including Catullus and Vergil. Yet his work
is not read and enjoyed as much as it could be. This new volume in
the popular Ancients in Action series seeks to bring Callimachus to
a wide audience, addressing the problems with currently available
scholarship, which assumes a professional level of expertise,
including full knowledge of Greek. Rawles presents a much-needed
introduction to Callimachus' poetry and is intended for the
non-specialist reader and student, assuming no knowledge of Greek.
The book is organised in thematic chapters, rich in quotation (in
translation), with selective annotations and guidance for further
study and reading.
