Descrizione Pindar and the Construction of Syracusan Monarchy in the Fifth Century B.C.
This book situates Pindar's victory odes for Hieron of Syracuse within the tumultuous context of Syracuse and Greece in the early fifth century BC. It combines exploration of the material and musical culture of Hieron's Syracuse with literary analysis to demonstrate how Pindar's poetry manipulates epinician form to effect political legitimation.
