Wandering Poets in Ancient Greek Culture: Travel, Locality and Pan-Hellenism
Richard Hunter
Poets in ancient Greece travelled in search of commissions and to celebrate local communities, rather than staying put in and only writing for their own cities. This volume explores this central feature of ancient culture, setting wandering poets within the wider context of ancient networks of exchange, patronage and affiliation.
