Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book presents a comprehensive exploration of Tibullus' poetry, analyzing its textual transmission from antiquity to the present day. It examines the various manuscript traditions and scholarly editions of Tibullus' works, tracing their development and influence on our understanding of the poet. The author argues that Tibullus' poetry has been subject to significant interpolation and emendation over the centuries, both by ancient scribes and later humanists. By carefully comparing different manuscript versions and early printed editions, the book sheds new light on the authenticity of certain passages and the evolution of the text. The author also explores the broader literary and historical context of Tibullus' work, examining his relationship to other Roman poets and the influence of Greek literature on his writing. The book provides valuable insights into the themes and motifs that permeate Tibullus' poetry, including love, loss, and the bittersweet nature of human existence. Ultimately, this book offers a fresh perspective on Tibullus' poetry, challenging traditional assumptions about its textual integrity and highlighting its enduring significance in the study of Roman literature. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
