De Callimachi Aetiis [Latin]

By Wilhelm Lange

De Callimachi Aetiis presents a scholarly examination of Callimachus's "Aetia," a collection of elegiac poems from the Hellenistic period. Wilhelm Lange's work, written in Latin, provides valuable insights into the fragments and interpretations of this significant work of classical literature. This study offers readers a detailed exploration of Callimachus's poetic style, mythological allusions, and the historical context of his writings.

"Aetia," meaning "causes" or "origins," explores the founding myths and customs of various Greek cities and religious practices. Lange's analysis contributes to a deeper understanding of Callimachus's influence on subsequent poets and the enduring importance of his contribution to the literary landscape of ancient Greece. This volume remains a valuable resource for scholars and students interested in classical studies and Hellenistic poetry.
