Literary and Artistic Patronage in Ancient Rome
Barbara K Gold
This book explores all the important aspects of patronage—a topic crucial to the study of literature and art from Homer to the present day.
Publisher Marketing: Virgil, Horace, Catullus, Propertius-these are just a few of the poets whose work we would be without today were it not for the wealthy and powerful patrons upon whose support the Roman cultural establishment so greatly depended. Who were these patrons? What benefits did they give, to whom, and why? What effect did the support of such men as Maecenas and Pompey have on the lives and work of those who looked to them for aid? These questions and others are addressed in this volume, which explores all the important aspects of patronage-a topic crucial to the study of literature and art from Homer to the present day.
Contributor Bio: Gold, Barbara K Barbara K. Gold is Edward North Professor of Classics at Hamilton College.
