Om Iambi et Elegi Graeci
Since the appearance of the first edition in 1971-72, Iambi et Elegi Graeci has been widely acknowledged as the standard critical edition of the early Greek iambic and elegiac poets. The work has now been thoroughly revised and brought up to date by the incorporation of the latest new material. In this second volume the major additions are the important new fragments of Simonides' elegies, some from a long narrative poem on the Battle of Plataea, others from personal poems of high literary interest and quality. There are also new fragments of the comic poem Margites attributed to Homer, and of Tyrtaeus. A supplementary word index has been added to take account of the changes and additions in the two volumes since the first edition.
