Inspired by Theodore Papanghelis' Propertius: A Hellenistic Poet on
Love and Death (1987), this collective volume brings together
seventeen contributions, written by an international team of
experts, exploring the different ways in which Latin authors and
some of their modern readers created narratives of life, love and
death. Taken together the papers offer stimulating readings of
Latin texts over many centuries, examined in a variety of genres
and from various perspectives: poetics and authorial
self-fashioning; intertextuality; fiction and 'reality'; gender and
queer studies; narratological readings; temporality and aesthetics;
genre and meta-genre; structures of the narrative and transgression
of boundaries on the ideological and the formalistic level;
reception; meta-dramatic and feminist accounts-the female voice.
Overall, the articles offer rich insights into the handling and
development of these narratives from Classical Greece through Rome
up to modern English poetry.
