A Short History of Greek Literature provides a concise yet
comprehensive survey of Greek literature - from Christian authors -
over twelve centuries, from Homer's epics to the rich range of
authors surviving from the imperial period up to Justinian. The
book is divided into three parts. The first part is devoted to the
extraordinary creativity of the archaic and classical age, when the
major literary genres - epic, lyric, tragedy, comedy, history,
oratory and philosophy - were invented and flourished. The second
part covers the Hellenistic period, and the third covers the High
Empire and Late Antiquity. At that tine the masters of the previous
age were elevated to the rank of 'classics'. The works of the
imperial period are replete with literary allusions, yet full of
references to contemporary reality.
