| Abstract
|
:
|
Morrison re-examines the relationship of Hellenistic poetry to Archaic poetry. He demonstrates how Callimachus, Theocritus and Apollonius developed their primary narrators by exploiting and adapting models from Archaic poets, including Homer and Hesiod, and genres such as 'The Homeric Hymns' and early elegy.
