Dialect, Diction, and Style in Greek Literary and Inscribed Epigram

This collective volume includes twenty-one contributions by an international team of scholars addressing a neglected topic of classical scholarship, namely dialect, diction, and style in literary and inscribed epigram. By combining traditional methods with modern viewpoints, the authors explore the interplay between rhetoric, design, and thematics in Greek epigram as a key to its fuller understanding as an art form.
