Summary

"Recent decades have seen the publication of several papyri devoted to ancient epigram, one of the most successful poetic forms of antiquity. Of these the most enigmatic is the Yale papyrus codex; its date, authorship and content have been vigorously debated. The codex allows us a glimpse of the wealth of material now lost to us and enriches our perception of the genre's dynamism, its thematic richness, and the process of anthologisation and dissemination. This volume offers the first collection of essays by experts in the genre dedicated to this fascinating and elusive text of the imperial period. Contributors are: Rodney Ast, Chris Carey, Lucia Floridi, Kathryn Gutzwiller, William J. Henderson, Maria Kanellou, Ginevra Vezzosi"--
