The volume,&lt;br&gt;concentrating on the poetic works of Silius Italicus, Statius and Valerius&lt;br&gt;Flaccus, consists of eight original contributions, two by the editors&lt;br&gt;themselves and a further six by experts on Flavian epic. The volume is&lt;br&gt;preceded by an introduction by the editors and it concludes with an&lt;br&gt;‘Afterword’ by Carole E. Newlands.&lt;br&gt;Among key themes analysed are narrative patterns, strategies or type-scenes&lt;br&gt;that appear to derive from tragedy, the Aristotelian notions of hamartia and&lt;br&gt;anagnorisis, human and divine causation, the ‘transfer’ of individual&lt;br&gt;characters from tragedy to epic, as well as instances of tragic language and&lt;br&gt;imagery.&lt;br&gt;The volume at hand showcases an array of methodological approaches to the&lt;br&gt;question of the presence of tragic elements in epic. Hence, it will be of&lt;br&gt;interest to scholars and students in the area of Classics or Literary Studies&lt;br&gt;focusing on such intergeneric and intertextual connections; it will be also of&lt;br&gt;interest to scholars working on Flavian epic or on the ancient reception of&lt;br&gt;Greek and Roman tragedy.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
