Focusing on the so-called ''new Posidippus'', Margherita Maria Di Nino''s I fiori campestri di Posidippo investigates the main linguistic and stylistic features of the recently-discovered Posidippean epigrams as well as the sources from which the poet drew his inspiration. The book provides a detailed commentary of the 7th and the 8th sections of P.Mil.Vogl. VIII 309, which contain epitaphs for sea victims (Nauagika) and epigrams recording Asclepius'' miraculous healings (Iamatika). The strictly philological analysis of the poems is complemented by a detailed comparison between Posidippus'' poetic lexis and the language documented in literary and inscriptional epitaphs for sea victims as well as in the shrine inscriptions from Lebena, Epidaurus and Rome.

Colin Austin (1941–2010), Professor of Greek at Cambridge and distinguished editor of poetic texts, was renowned for the precision and brilliance of his scholarship. This collection of studies, offered by some of his pupils, aims to honour his memory. The papers combine philology and textual criticism with a strong interest in setting the works under examination in their literary and cultural context. Individual contributions are devoted to the establishment of the text of the comic poet Menander and the epigrammatist Posidippus of Pella, while one chapter offers a new critical edition of and the first detailed commentary on a number of erotic epigrams. Other essays explore poetic, performative and narratological features in Socratic works of Plato and Xenophon. The volume also includes an analysis of the trope of pathetic fallacy in the bucolic poem Epitaph for Bion and a study of the concept of ‘frigidity’ in ancient literary criticism.
