Description

This is the first compendium of the extant remains of the important Hellenistic poet and mythographer, Parthenius of Nicaea, reputed to have been Virgil's tutor in Greek and a major literary figure in his own right. The book includes a newly-edited text, translation, commentary, and contextual study of the whole of the writer's extant works, including the poetic fragments and his love stories.
