Beskrivning

Herodotus famously credits Homer and Hesiod with shaping the Greeks' image of their gods. Yet the contribution of the Archaic and Early Classical lyric poets was equally, if not more, important. This book explores images of intimate interactions of mortals and immortals in sacred and profane locales, and assesses how performance sub specie divinitatis fired poets’ imagination, taking into account both new scholarly approaches to lyric and Greek religion and the discovery of important new fragments.
