Her selections engage us with the full range of Hellenistic poetic genres, styles, themes, and moods. The anthology includes Fowler's new translation of the entire "Argonautica" of Apollonius of Rhodes, and eight of Theocritus' "Idylls," including the beautiful, sensuous description of late summer in "Idyll VII" and the shrewdly comical description of two young matrons venturing into the noisy streets of Alexandria in" Idyll XV." There are translations of four hymns of Callimachus, as well as poems by Aratus, Bion, Herodas, Moschus, Pseudo-Moschus, and a substantial selection from the "Greek Anthology." An ideal companion to her recently published book, "The Hellenistic Aesthetic, "Barbara Fowler's "Hellenistic Poetry" is both a major contribution to classical studies and an invitation to all interested readers to discover the beauty and richness of Hellenistic poetry.Hide synopsis
