A Companion to Roman Love Elegy, edited by an eminent figure in the discipline, is the first comprehensive work dedicated solely to the study of love elegy. Original essays from respected experts look back to earlier works on Roman elegy and offer a retrospective view of the state of the discipline, whilst also delivering essays devoted to developing approaches in the field; these essays reveal the new layers of meaning currently being exposed in Roman elegy and their influence on a wide range of academic disciplines.
