MISCELLANEA; Bibliography; IndexPindar is one of the greatest Greek poets, but while the metre of half of his poems is easy to grasp, that of the other half has so far remained obscure. Kiichiro Itsumi presents a new account of their metre. He separates the metre into two types and identifies a series of precise entities from which the verses are made, in this way imposing a new clarity and discipline on what had previously seemed a much vaguer process. Itsumi's analyses of individual poems include a discussion ofstanzaic structure, of textual problems, and of particular lines in the stanza and their exploitation within the Greek languageMetrics and rhythmicsGreek languageMetrics and rhythmics.884.01Itsumi Kiichiro629671MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996209685003316Pindaric metre1226105UNISA
