The Lives and Characters of the Ancient Grecian Poets is a book written by Basil Kennett and published in 1735. The book provides a comprehensive account of the lives and works of the most prominent poets of ancient Greece, including Homer, Hesiod, Pindar, and others. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a particular poet and their contributions to Greek literature. Kennett provides a detailed analysis of each poet's style, themes, and historical context, as well as their impact on subsequent generations of writers.In addition to discussing the poets themselves, Kennett also explores the broader cultural and historical context in which they lived and worked. He examines the social, political, and religious factors that influenced Greek literature, and explains how these factors shaped the works of the poets he discusses.Overall, The Lives and Characters of the Ancient Grecian Poets is an important work of literary criticism and historical analysis. It provides a valuable resource for scholars and students of ancient Greek literature, and remains a classic text in the field to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
