In discussing both poets and scholars from a broad historical span, with emphasis on the German legacy of genius, Hamilton investigates how Pindar’s obscurity has been perceived and confronted, extorted and exploited. This study addresses a variety of pressing issues, including the possibility or impossibility of a continuous literary tradition.
