Lines of Enquiry: Studies in Latin Poetry
ISBN: 9780521611862 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) In these studies of Latin poetry Niall Rudd demonstrates a variety of critical methods and approaches. He shows how it can be fruitful at different times to consider the historical background of a poem, its language or structure, its place in a literary tradition, the role of critical paradigms, and so on.
