The multifaceted agōn - a 'contest of words' - is a force formulating classical literary tradition. This book reflects on facets of the agōn and its representations in classical literature across a variety of genres and ideological contexts, from Homer to lyric poetry, drama, law, rhetoric and historiography, and the pivotal role of competition in ancient Greek thought. It examines the agōn as a literary, structural and dialectic form, as a means of authority and power, and as a competitive element in poetic diction and performance.
