The Dance of the Muses: Choral Theory and Ancient Greek Poetics by A. P. David
English | 28 Sept. 2006 | ISBN: 019929240X | 300 Pages | PDF | 1 MB

This book develops an authentic and at the same time revolutionary musical analysis of ancient Greek poetry. It departs from the abstract metrical analyses of the past in that it conceives the rhythmic and harmonic elements of poetry as integral to the whole expression, and decisive in the interpretation of its meaning.
