200512188Brill. 2005. Hardcover. Near Fine in No Dust Jacket dust jacket. Gift inscription to R. E. Fantham from author on ffep includes tipped-in note from author. Dust-soiling to one small area of textblock.; This book analyses the mythical and legendary narratives in Ovid's Fasti as narrative and concentrates on the neglected literary aspects of these stories. It combines traditional tools of literary criticism with more modern techniques taken especially from narratology and intertextuality. From a narratological viewpoint it covers important features such as aperture closure characterization internal narrators description space time and cinematic technique. On the intertextual level it examines the narratives' complex relationship with Virgil Livy and Ovid's own earlier works. Recent criticism on the Fasti has addressed various elements religious historical political astronomical etc. but detailed narrative study has been wanting. This book fills that gap to provide a more informed and balanced appreciation of this multifaceted poem aimed at classicists and literary critics in general for whom all the Latin is translated.; Mnemosyne: Bibliotheca Classica Batava Supplementum; 306 pages; Signed by Author . 9004143203 .
