{"product_id":"apollonius-of-rhodes-apollonius-of-rhodes-9781107636750","title":"Apollonius of Rhodes: Argonautica Book IV","description":"Apollonius' epic, the Argonautica, is not just a masterpiece of Hellenistic poetry drawing on the entire tradition of previous Greek literature, but was enormously influential on Latin epic, especially Virgil's Aeneid. Book IV tells the story of the Argonauts' return to Greece with the Golden Fleece, their nightmarish trips through the uncharted rivers of central Europe and the desert wastes of North Africa, the terrible killing of Medea's brother, and the anguish of the young girl which foreshadows her bloody future. This is the first modern commentary in English. Problems of syntax and language are fully explained, and there is a sophisticated discussion of the poem as literature. It will be useful for advanced undergraduates and graduate students studying Greek poetry, as well as of interest to scholars.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Apollonius of Rhodes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1107636752\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781107636750\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/10\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 348\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.80d","brand":"Apollonius of Rhodes","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43924072988927,"sku":"9781107636750","price":43.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_f5e69763-f83b-4939-88eb-3270b1554f36.jpg?v=1681068314","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/apollonius-of-rhodes-apollonius-of-rhodes-9781107636750","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
