'Genre' has classical roots: both in the etymology of the word and in the history of genre criticism, which begins with Aristotle. In a similar vein, recent developments in genre studies have suggested that literary genres are not given or fixed entities, but subjective and unstable (as well as historically situated), and that the reception of genre by both writers and scholars feeds back into the way genre is articulated in specific literary works. Classical scholarship, literary criticism, and genre form a triangle of key concepts for the volume, approached in different ways and with different productive results by contributors from across the disciplines of Classics and English literature. Covering topics from the establishment of genre in the Middle Ages to the invention of female epic and the epyllion, and bringing together the works of English poets from Milton to Tennyson to Josephine Balmer, the essays collected hereargue that the reception and criticism of classical texts play a crucial part in generic formation in English poetry."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 410 0$aBloomsbury studies in classical reception. 606 $aEnglish poetry$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish poetry$xClassical influences 615 0$aEnglish poetry$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish poetry$xClassical influences. 676 $a821.009 702 $aBa?r$b Silvio 702 $aHauser$b Emily$c(Fiction writer), 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793253203321 996 $aReading poetry, writing genre$93829452 997 $aUNINA
