{"product_id":"pic-pastures-9783111529134","title":"Εpic Pastures","description":"\u003cp\u003eAlthough nearly all scholars acknowledge that the \u003cem\u003eMetamorphoses\u003c\/em\u003e appears to engage with pastoral poetry, there has not been a monograph specifically designed to address and explore the interaction between pastoral and epic in the \u003cem\u003eMetamorphoses\u003c\/em\u003e. This book fills in this gap, building on modern approaches to intertextuality, Ovidian, and pastoral studies. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe present book is comprised from five main chapters: 1. Pastoral Encounters, 2. Female Pastoral, 3. Mourning Pastoral, 4. Pastoral Ascent in the \u003cem\u003eMetamorphoses\u003c\/em\u003e, 5. Pastoral, Golden Age and the\u003cem\u003e Metamorphoses\u003c\/em\u003e). The chapters are often in dialogue with one another, thus offering a more sustained examination of the topic. Alongside the lack of comprehensive monograph on pastoral in the \u003cem\u003eMetamorphoses\u003c\/em\u003e, the preseny book’s originality and contribution lie on the exploration of pastoral in the \u003cem\u003eMetamorphoses\u003c\/em\u003e through the lenses of fiction, heroics, and gender, notions which are interwoven throughout the chapters. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis modern approach to generic interaction will be useful for scholars working on Ovid and across the range of Greek and Roman literature, as well as for students of Classics. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eleni Ntanou","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48265218130171,"sku":"9783111529134","price":141.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/CoreSourceHub_d90d3f5b-def8-4367-9735-f6632644f518.jpg?v=1776638432","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/pic-pastures-9783111529134","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
