Talking books is a latin poetry, greek poetry book by G. O. Hutchinson.
About this book
"The study of Latin poetry-books, though seen as important, has suffered from limited engagement with Greek literature and papyri. This book, which combines unpublished and recently published pieces, uses papyri intensively, applying new texts and exploiting evidence for making and reading books. It treats both Hellenistic and Latin poetry, and both books which consist of short poems and book which make part of long ones. Talking Books offers a wealth of material and many lines of thought, and should give new impetus to scholarship in this field."--Jacket.
