A Companion to Byzantine Poetry lead image
In sum, this is a well conceived and organised book, covering a wide ran­ge of subjects concerned with Byzantine poetry, that will prove a useful tool for scholars of all levels. The individual contributions take into account the most recent developments in the relevant scholarship and are bibliographically up to date (some minor omissions are indicated in the endnotes), thus offering a good starting point for further research.
