As a poet and an editor of an anthology that transmitted the poetry of many Hellenistic epigrammists to modern times, Meleager is an important literary figure, and this text provides an excellent introduction to his poetry. The total of 132 epigrams is encompassed in a little more than 800 lines, allowing a complete reading within a reasonable time. The volume includes notes, vocabulary, and proper name and epigram source indices.

Bolchazy-Carducci, Wauconda, 1992. VII,160p. Paperback. 'This elegant, but self-admittedly unpretentious, edition aims to render M.'s poetry accessible to undergraduates. (.) A consolidated bibliography seems the major omission. (.) What students (and tehir instructtors) may miss is general guidance on Hellenistic literature, on epigram as a genre, on its importance for Roman elegiac tradition. (.) The introduction is lucid, but dense. (.) There are things here that users will find frustratingly facile or subjective, others too terse and allusive. (.) But M. is a fascinating poet; C.'s presentation of him is useful, so far as it goes; and it is to be hoped that students and teachers may take up the challenge.' (JOHN H. BETTS in The Classical Review (New Series), 1994, pp.20-21). From the library of Prof. Carl Deroux. Seller Inventory # 50005
