Reprint 1st ed.1969. A few light, erasable pencil markings and underlinings from NH. 'Professor Rosenmeyer's full-length study treats Theocritus not merely as a source for Vergil and later writers but as a poet - a significantly worthy poet - in his own right. This is a fully documented literary study of theocritus that cannot help but provide the student with deep insight and steady appreciation of a notable Hellenistic author and a persistent literary genre.'
