{"product_id":"repeat-performances-laurel-fulkerson-9780299307509","title":"Repeat Performances: Ovidian Repetition and the Metamorphoses","description":"Although repetition is found in all ancient literary genres, it is especially pervasive in epic poetry. Ovid's \u003ci\u003eMetamorphoses\u003c\/i\u003e exploits this dimension of the epic genre to a great extent; past critics have faulted it as too filled with recycled themes and language. This volume seeks a deeper understanding of Ovidian repetitiveness in the context of new scholarship on intertextuality and intratextuality, examining the purposeful reuse of previous material and the effects produced by a text's repetitive gestures.\u003cbr\u003e A shared vision of the possibilities of Latin epic poetry unites the essays, as does a series of attempts to realize those opportunities. Some of the pieces represent a traditional vein of allusion and intertextuality; others are more innovative in their approaches. Each, in a sense, stands as a placeholder for a methodology of theorizing the repetitive practices of poetry, of epic, and of Ovid in particular. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Contributors: Antony Augoustakis, Neil W.
