Ranging between the dates 650 BC and AD 920, the book contains a myriad of poems all concerned with the subjects of love and beauty. There is broad range of authorship contained, encompassing the acclaimed Plato to anonymous and complete poems included as well as intelligible and intriguing fragments. Edmonds also provides a comprehensive introduction to the poems, in which he outlines their origin and ideology. This book is a must read for literature scholars and will be of considerable interest to scholars in cognate fields such as classics, philosophy and literary translation.
