Intertextuality and the Reading of Roman Poetry by Lowell Edmunds
Intertextuality is a matter of reading.
Studded with striking observations and suggestive formulations-- Charles Platter Religious Studies Review Lowell Edmunds has written a book that provides what is expected and appreciated in a theoretical study: the scholarship is extensive and well organized into arguments which are themselves descriptive, provocative, challenging, and supported by a close reading of a variety of selections from Catullus, Horace, Vergil, and Ovid. -- David J. Kuyat Bryn Mawr Classical Review For the graduate student and for the consenting Latinist, this is a book which enters a debate with verve and commitment that should provoke yet further discussion. -- Simon Goldhill Classical World
Lowell Edmunds is a professor of classics at Rutgers University. His many books include Approaches to Greek Myth; Oedipus: The Ancient Legend and Its Later Analogues; and Poet, Public, and Performance in Ancient Greece all available in paperback from Johns Hopkins.
