Book Overview
""The Poetic Plural of Greek Tragedy in the Light of Homeric Usage"" is a scholarly work written by Horace Leonard Jones and published in 1910. The book explores the use of plural nouns in Greek tragedy, specifically in relation to their usage in Homer's epic poems. Jones argues that the poetic plural in tragedy serves a variety of functions, including emphasizing the universality of human experience, creating a sense of community among the characters, and highlighting the tragic nature of the events depicted. Drawing on extensive analysis of Greek texts, Jones provides a detailed examination of the linguistic and literary techniques employed by tragedians in their use of the poetic plural. This book is a valuable resource for scholars of Greek literature and language, as well as anyone interested in the history and development of tragic drama.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
