A Companion to Catullus

A Companion to Catullus addresses the central themes in Catullan studies, providing readers with the fundamental knowledge necessary to appreciate and understand the poet's work.

This significant collection of essays from internationally renowned scholars includes discussions about production, genre, style, and reception, as well as interpretive essays on key poems and groups of poems. Grounding the author firmly in the socio-historical world around him, this Companion reflects the most recent trends in the field. Chapters provide convenient surveys of complex issues and challenge received wisdom by presenting original readings of major poems and suggesting new interpretations of biographical evidence.
