[PU: Cambridge, London: Harvard University Press], 207 p. Cloth with dustjacket. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Schutzumschlag weist Randläsuren und kleine Einrisse auf, Verschmutzung auf Buchrücken des Schutzumschlags, sonst guter Zustand / dust jacket has edge wear and small tears, soiling on spine of dust jacket, otherwise good condition. - Anne Burnett shows us the art of Bacchyl- ides in the context of Greek lyric traditions. She discusses the beginnings of choral poetry and the functions of the choral myth; she describes the purposes of the victory song in particular and the practices of Bac- chylides and Pindar as they fulfilled their victory commissions. In analyzing individual poems Burnett’s approach is two-fold, for each ode is seen as a choral performance reflecting archaic cult practice, while it is also studied as the expression of a particular poetic vision and sensibility. Thus the formal elements of the Bacchylidean victory songs are recognized as the response of a chorus which must give semi-religious praise to a noble athlete or prize-winning prince in times of increasing democracy. At the same time an artistry and an ethic peculiar to Bacchylides are discovered in the manipulation of fictions and mythic materials. / CONTENTS Introduction 1. The Choral Mode 2.
