Add to basketReprint, stapled. Condition: Gut. pp. 961-964. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - With dedication by the author. - Author's name handwritten on first page, otherwise good and clean. - From the text: We confront the problem of class…ifying literature as soon we begin to survey its expanse over any extended period of time and reflect systematically on the kinds or types of literary works, what Aristotle calls their e?d? However unsatisfactory classification by genre is, there are few other relatively objective ways of understanding the interrelationships among works and authors of widely different periods. In the case of classical literature, which remains deeply rooted in the traditions of a given form and much concerned with previous models, genre must often be the necessary starting point for assessing a given authors development and originality. A good recent example is Oswyn Murrays comparison of Horaces sympotic poetry to that of Alcaeus and the Hellenistic epigram. - Wikipedia: Charles Paul Segal (March 19, 1936 January 1, 2002) was an American classicist renowned for his application of critical theory to ancient texts. Although his work spanned a variety of Latin and Greek genres, he is best known for his work on Greek tragedy. His most influential work is Tragedy and Civilization: an Interpretation of Sophocles (1981), in which he presents a structuralist approach to Greek theatre. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550.
