This collection of essays explores the extensive use of Latin and
Greek literary texts in a range of recent poetry written in
English. It contains both contributions from poets, who include
Tony Harrison, Seamus Heaney, and Michael Longley, talking about
their uses of classical literature in their own work in lyric
poetry and in theatre poetry, and essays from academic experts on
the same topics. Living Classics asks why contemporary poets are
returning to making versions of and allusions to Greek and Roman
literature in their work, and interrogates the parallel interest of
modern classical scholars in the contemporary reception of
classical texts.
