Book Synopsis Leaving words to remember [electronic resource] by : Katharine Derderian
Book excerpt: This volume examines the influence of literacy on the development of mourning in ancient Greece. Considered against the oral tradition of Homeric lament, archaic and classical memorials are shown to evolve into an increasingly civic and historical medium of memory.
