From the publisher
From the rear cover
"In Arion's Lyre, Benjamin Acosta-Hughes deftly manages to capture the atmospheres and contexts that underlay the Archaic fragments and their reconstructions or deconstructions in Hellenistic texts. In doing so, he skillfully and subtly illuminates both Archaic culture and Hellenistic poetry."--Marco Fantuzzi, Columbia University and Universit di Macerata
"This is a massively erudite treatment of an important topic. Benjamin Acosta-Hughes is a sensitive reader of Archaic lyric and Hellenistic poetry. He knows these poetic traditions intimately and is in close, deep engagement with other scholars. This is an important book."--David Wray, University of Chicago
