The Works of Callimachus is a collection of poems translated into English verse by the ancient Greek poet Callimachus. The book includes his hymns and epigrams, as well as the Coma Berenices. The hymns are religious poems dedicated to various gods and goddesses, while the epigrams are short, witty poems that often satirize human behavior. The Coma Berenices is a longer poem that tells the story of Queen Berenice's sacrifice of her hair to the gods. This translation was first published in 1793 and is a valuable resource for those interested in ancient Greek poetry and literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
