    Provides the necessary context to read elegiac and lyric poetry, designed for novice and experienced Classics and Latin students alikeA Guide to Latin Elegy and Lyric explores the language of Latin poetry while helping readers understand the socio-cultural context of the remarkable period of Roman literary history in which the poetry was composed. With an innovative approach to this important area of classical scholarship, the authors treat elegy alongside lyric as they cover topics such as the Hellenistic influences on Augustan poetry, the key figures that shaped the elegiac tradition of Rome, the motifs of militia amoris ("the warfare of love") and servitium amoris ("the slavery of love") in Latin love elegy, and more.Organized into ten chapters, the book begins with an introduction to the literary, political, and social contexts of the Augustan Age.- The next six chapters each focus on an individual lyric and elegiac poet--Catullus, Horace, Tibullus, Propertius, Ovid, and Sulpicia--followed by a survey of several lesser-known poets and post-Augustan elegy and lyric. The text concludes with a discussion of major tropes and themes in Latin elegy and lyric, and an overview and analysis of key critical approaches in current scholarship.- This volume:* Includes full translations alongside the Latin throughout the text to illustrate discussions* Analyzes recurring themes and tropes found in Latin poetry such as sexuality and gender, politics and patronage, myth and religion, wealth and poverty, empire, madness, magic, and witchcraft* Reviews modern critical approaches to elegiac and lyric poetry including autobiographical realism, psychoanalysis, narratology, reception, and decolonization* Includes helpful introductory sections: "How to Read a Latin Elegiac or Lyric Poem" and "How to Teach a Latin Elegiac and Lyric Poem"* Provides information about each poet, an in-depth discussion of some of their poetry, and cultural and historical background* Features a dedicated chapter on Sulpicia, offering readers an ancient female viewpoint on sex and gender, politics, and patronagePart of the acclaimed Blackwell Guides to Classical Literature series,-

    In A Guide to Latin Elegy and Lyric, authors Barbara K. Gold and Genevieve Liveley offer an innovative approach for exploring the language of Latin poetry and understanding the social, political, and cultural context of the time in which the poetry was produced. Treating elegy alongside lyric, the authors focus on the poetry of Catullus, Horace, Tibullus, Propertius, Ovid, and Sulpicia. Readers are presented with a diverse range of topics ranging from the Hellenistic influences on Augustan poetry to typical themes of militia amoris ("the warfare of love") and servitium amoris ("the slavery of love").Ideally suited for those encountering the poetry for the first time--with or without previous knowledge of Latin--the book includes complete translations, cultural and historical background, and helpful sections explaining how to read and teach a Latin elegiac or lyric poem. The authors outline and address autobiographical realism, psychoanalysis, narratology, and other modern critical approaches to Latin poetry, and analyze many of the tropes incorporated by the Roman poets: sexuality and gender, politics and patronage, myth and religion, wealth and poverty, empire, madness, magic, witchcraft, and many more.A Guide to Latin Elegy and Lyric provides novice and experienced Classics and Latin students with the knowledge and context necessary to read elegiac and lyric poetry while contributing original insights about the major poets and poetry of Rome's Augustan Age.

"In our Guide to Latin Elegy and Lyric, we hope to reach both students of Classics and Latin poetry at various levels and those who are interested in the ancient world in an avocational way. When I (Barbara Gold) first reached out to Genevieve Liveley about being my co-author, I don't think that either of us had any idea how hard it would be to write about Latin elegy and lyric for people who might not know any Latin. But now that we have tackled writers like Catullus, Horace, Tibullus, Propertius, Ovid, and Sulpicia with exactly that audience in mind, I think that the two of us understand Latin elegy and lyric in a different and exciting way. We hope that our readers will be equally excited about this fantastic poetry and might even be tempted to learn a bit of Latin so that they could have a different sort of entry into the poetry. We have included lots of Latin to help illustrate our discussions and offer a pathway towards some deeper insights into this poetry, but we have included our own translations for everything. We have tried to give some historical and cultural context for each of the authors and then to open up the world of each author by looking at themes, language and ideas in their poems as well as possible modes of reception. We are very aware that reception of this poetry or any literature will vary depending upon who is doing the reading so we hope that our understanding of this poetry will allow other, different interpretations that will open up the poetry in interesting and unforeseen ways. We have included ten chapters: seven are devoted to individual authors or a set of authors, one to contexts of the poetry, one to major themes, and one to critical approaches. We have also written a preliminary chapter of Introduction on "How to Read a Latin Lyric or Elegiac Poem" and a pedagogical section, "How to Teach Latin Lyric and Elegiac Poetry""--
