  • Exemplary Traits. Reading Characterization in Roman Poetry. Oxford University Press, 2013. 240p. Hardback. In this theoretically informed study of Roman epic and tragedy, J. Mira Seo demonstrates how intertextuality both shapes and interrogates character. This is an important book whose compelling new readings of Virgil's Aeneid, Lucan's Bellum Civile, Statius' Thebaid, and Seneca's Oedipus and Phaedra invite reassessment of the Latin literary canon.
