- Synopsis
- From the preface: "This anthology of translations is drawn from the little that remains of the lyric poetry produced in the Greek world during the seventh, sixth, and fifth centuries B.C. Following ample precedent, it includes not only monody and choral lyric but also short poems and frag-ments in the elegiac and iambic meters, even though the latter do not fit the etymological definition of lyric as "poetry composed to be sung to the lyre."
