"33 essays on Catullus, Tibullus, Sulpicia, Propertius, and Ovid, their Greek and Roman predecessors, and later writers influenced by their work. ... Some articles focus on specific writers or texts, [while] others center on the historical and material context, Greek and Roman influences on the elegists, style, meter, translation, aspects of production, and different critical approaches."--Jacket.
