| | Greek Anthology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Greek Anthology (also Anthologia Graeca) is a collection of poems, mostly epigrams, that span the Ancient and Byzantine periods of Greek Literature. | | | Prefaces to the editions of Philip of Thessalonika and Agathias were preserved in the Greek Anthology to attest to their additions of later poems. | | | His anthology was the only one known to Western Europe (his autograph copy, dated 1301 survives; the first edition based on his collection was printed in 1494) until 1606 when Claudius Salmasius found in the library at Heidelberg a fuller collection based on Cephalas. |

| | The collection called the Garland of Meleager, which is the basis of the Greek Anthology as we possess it, was formed by him in the early part of the first century B.C. The scholiast on the Palatine MS. | | | All important deviations from the received text of the Anthology are noted, and referred to their author in each case; but, as this is not a critical edition, the received text, when retained, is as a rule printed without comment where it differs from that of the MSS. | | | XII Though fate and death make a dark background against which the brilliant colouring of Greek life glitters out with heightened magnificence, the comedy of men and manners occupies an important part of their literature, and Aristophanes and Menander are as intimately Greek as Sophocles. |

| | Anthology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | In the twentieth century anthologies became an important part of poetry publishing, for a number of reasons. | | | In fact the concept of 'modern verse' was fostered by the appearance of the phrase in titles such as the Faber and Faber anthology by Michael Roberts, and the very different W. | | | Academic publishing also followed suit, with the success of the Quiller-Couch Oxford Book of English Verse encouraging other collections not limited to modern poetry. |

| | Chris Kuipers, A Field Theory of the Canon |
| | Thus the canon of the Greek Anthology is characterized by the canonizing of both the corpuscular poet and the anthological editor. | | | The Greek word anthologion as a book title does not appear until the early second-century A.D. collection of Greek epigrams by Diogenianus of Heraclea, and the term was not associated with the full Greek collection until Cephalas. | | | There are also alternations between the forces: the two-volume Nortons are anthologized in shorter one-volume editions; the hefty corpus of the Greek Anthology is winnowed by a series of editors for their contemporary audiences, as Maximus Planudes did, and as almost all of the many English versions of the Greek Anthology have done. |

| | Alciato and Greek Anthology |
| | The Greek Anthology is a series of cycles of Greek lyric and epigrammatic poems by scores of writers both ancient and medieval Christian, assembled in a series of collections from antiquity onwards. | | | Like most scholars interested in Greek literature, Alciato was fascinated by the Planudean Greek Anthology and in the early 1520's he began to work on the poems. | | | Of the 104 emblems in the first unauthorized edition of Alciato's Emblematum liber (1531), 31 were based on poems from the Greek Anthology. |

| | But it is evident that in this fact-in the fact that among the Greeks the love of women was considered for the most part sensual, while the romance of love went to the account of friendship, we have the strength and the weakness of the Greek civilization. | | | When we come to the higher culture of the Greek age the material fortunately is abundant-not only for the customs, but (in Greek philosophy and [4] poetry) for the inner sentiments which inspired these customs. | | | Strength, because by the recognition everywhere of romantic comradeship, public and private life was filled by a kind of divine fire; weakness, because by the non-recognition of woman's equal part in such comradeship, her saving, healing, and redeeming influence was lost, and the Greek culture doomed to be to that extent one-sided. |

| | Sample Chapter for Hine, D., trans.: Puerilities: Erotic Epigrams of The Greek Anthology. |
| | Poets in particular, wishing to exploit all the possibilities of their language--and a poet can only convincingly write in his native tongue, however elaborated or diluted by education--can either stick to what they suppose is standard speech, or, like Shakespeare, vary their discourse for surprising but appropriate effect. | | | The overall effect is one of witty wistfulness rather than rampant, reciprocated lust, of longing--what the Greeks called pothos--rather than satisfaction, and also of regret. | | | I trust that these epigrams, so often but pleasantries, will stand as valid poems in their own light: not symphonies like the Homeric poets and all their imitators, but bagatelles. |
