The Fragments of Archilochus Illustrated - ebook
Chief among the iambic poets of ancient Greece was the seventh century lyric poet Archilochus. Notorious for his outspoken and vituperative verses, he flourished in a time of great colonisation and vigorous intellectual movement, questioning the prevailing aristocratic ideals. Celebrated for his versatile use of poetic metres, Archilochus is the earliest known Greek author to devote his poetic compositions almost entirely to his own emotions and experiences. He developed a modern form of poetry that contrasts strongly with Homer’s grand heroism. Delphi’s Ancient Classics series provides eReaders with the wisdom of the Classical world, with both English translations and the original Greek texts. This eBook presents Archilochus’ collected fragments, with illustrations, an informative introduction and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1)
