Publisher's Synopsis

Selections From The Greek Anthology is a book compiled by Graham R. Tomson and first published in 1889. The book is a collection of Greek poetry and prose from various authors and periods, including works by Sappho, Anacreon, and Pindar. The anthology covers a wide range of themes, including love, nature, politics, and mythology. The book is divided into sections based on the type of work, such as epigrams, elegies, and hymns. Each section is introduced with a brief overview of the type of work and its history. The translations are in English and attempt to capture the essence of the original Greek, while also making the works accessible to modern readers. The book is an excellent resource for scholars of Greek literature, as well as anyone interested in exploring the rich tradition of Greek poetry and prose.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
