Omschrijving
"As always, Hardie’s work is erudite and articulate, displaying the author’s extensive knowledge of both early and late Latin poetic corpora. This recent work advocates for the uniqueness and vitality of late antique Latin poetry against the still-widespread stereotype of the period as one marked by decadence and degeneration. It should be widely appreciated by specialists in Latin poetry, late antiquity, and anyone interested in the complex interactions between ‘classical’ and Christian culture in the later Roman world. It is highly recommended."
