Description

Explore the first comprehensive study of Latin figures of repetition with this essential poetic handbook from Oxford University Press. Professor Wills provides a systematic treatment of stylistic markers such as gemination, epanalepsis, polyptoton, and anaphora, which were previously relegated to simple commentary notes. This scholarly work includes over ten thousand quotations spanning from Ennius to Juvenal, offering deep insight into authorial preferences and genre traditions. To provide a complete context, the text features numerous examples from Latin prose and Greek literature for comparison. By examining figures arising from positional and framing structures, this book serves as a vital resource for understanding the mechanics of classical poetic style. It is an indispensable tool for students and scholars of Latin literature and literary theory.
