Description
Pindar was the single most important, canonical and influential lyric poet in the ancient Greek world, and he remains one of the most demanding and rewarding poets whose work has come down to us from antiquity. This volume represents the most comprehensive introduction to the poet and his reception yet published. Eighteen leading contemporary scholars contribute individual chapters that together help to provide a holistic understanding of Pindar's poetry, its major themes and its subsequent reception throughout more than two millennia. The book will be invaluable for students, teachers, and scholars, as well as those with a general interest in poetry.
