Acerca deste libro electrónico
Judged by some as second only to Homer, Panyassis of Halicarnassus was a fifth-century BC epic poet, who was the uncle of Herodotus. His chief literary achievement was the epic poem ‘Heraclea’, composed of 14 books, narrating the adventures of Heracles in various parts of the world, including the undergoing of his fabled Twelve Labours. The fragments that have been preserved reveal an elegant and graceful style, noted for its harmonious rhythm. Delphi’s Ancient Classics series provides eReaders with the wisdom of the Classical world, with both English translations and the original Greek texts. This eBook presents the fragments of Panyassis’ lost epic, with illustrations, an informative introduction and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1)
