Description

First published in 1994. Lyric Texts and Lyric Consciousness presents a model for studying the history of lyric as a genre.

Professor Miller drawls a distinction between the work of the Greek lyrists and the more condensed, personal poetry that we associate with lyric.

He then confronts the theoretical issues and presents sophisticated, Bakhtinian reading of the development of lyric form from its origins in archaic Greece to the more individualist style of Augustan Rome.

This book will appeal to classicists and since English translation of passes from ancient authors are provided, to those who specialise in comparative literature.
