The Hellenizing Muse: A European Anthology Of Poetry In Ancient Greek From The Renaissance To The Present (Trends In Classics - Pathways Of Reception) - 9783111255965

This is the first Anthology ever to present a representative selection of poems in ancient Greek written by European scholars, erudites and amateurs since the return of Greek language and culture in humanistic times. A major cultural indicator of the spreading and pervasiveness of Greek culture in the West beyond political and religious boundaries, this kind of poetry, which in some places is still alive even today, also yields some so far largely neglected masterpieces.
