"This volume provides a welcome redirection of these efforts by starting from the idea that didactic is first and foremost poetry and therefore explicable by the major approaches usually followed in the analysis of ancient poetry (especially intertextuality). (...) As a result, the book under review will be essential reading for all scholars of ancient hexameter poetry and for those who work on any didactic poet covered in its various chapters. (...) The editors are to be commended for providing a remarkably cohesive volume of papers written by a group of renowned scholars at the top of their powers. Cumulatively, these essays make an important contribution to most of the major scholarly issues involved in the study of didactic poetry. Essential reading, then, that will remain so for the foreseeable future." Jason Nethercut, BMCR 2022.10.02
