An accomplished poet and classical scholar, Barbara Hughes Fowler brings Hellenistic poetry to life for the contemporary reader. Her selections engage us with the full range of Hellenistic poetic genres, styles, themes, and moods. The anthology includes Fowler’s new translation of the entireArgonauticaof Apollonius of Rhodes, and eight of Theocritus’Idylls, including the beautiful, sensuous description of late summer inIdyll VIIand the shrewdly comical description of two young matrons venturing into the noisy streets of Alexandria inIdyll XV. There are translations of four hymns of Callimachus, as well as poems by Aratus, Bion, Herodas, Moschus, Pseudo-Moschus, and a substantial selection from theGreek Anthology.
An ideal companion to her recently published book,The Hellenistic Aesthetic,Barbara Fowler’sHellenistic Poetryis both a major contribution to classical studies and an invitation to all interested readers to discover the beauty and richness of Hellenistic poetry.
