Minor rubbing to boards.; 250 pages; Themistocles (ca. 525 BC-460 BC) was a leader in the Athenian democracy during the Persian War.

This book brings a new approach to the study of the early Greek lyric poets. Instead of concentrating on the poetry as literature, Podlecki has chosen to examine the life and works of the leading poets of the eighth to fifth century B.C. in the context of the military and historical events of the period. Ranging over the extent of the Greek world at this time, the book is a survey of the many poets who lived in widely scattered places, from Asia Minor in the east to Sicily in the west, who wrote in diffuse poetic idioms, and for varied audiences. Products of different historical and political backgrounds, these poets cannot be appreciated fully, or, in some cases, even understood without considering the milieu in which they lived. On the other hand, their poetry often casts new and interesting light on the historical currents of the archaic period of Greece. Podlecki begins by examining the Homeric period and its historical background, following which he deals with three poets of Asia Minor and the adjacent islands-Archilochus, Callinus, and Mimnermus. He moves on to the island of Lesbos, the home of the two famous seventh century poets Alcaeus and Sappho and then to poets living in mainland Greece-Terpander, Tyrtaeus, and Alman of Sparta, Solon of Athens, and Theognis of neighbouring Megara. Moving farther west, Podlecki deals with the poets of the Greek cities of Sicily - Stesichorus, Ibycus, and Xenophanes. Anacreon and Simonides, who both settled in Athens in the beginning of the fifth century, are then discussed, while the final chapter is devoted to the two greatest lyric poets of the fifth century, Pindar and Bacchylides. Bridging the gap between history and literature, this book will greatly add to the appreciation of the works of these poets and broaden our knowledge of the historical currents and development of thought during this complex period.…
