Wiseman examines the evidence for the oral delivery of 'literature' to mass public audiences. The treatment is chronological, utilising wherever possible contemporary sources and the close reading of texts. Presenting the history of Roman literature as an integral part of the social and political history of the Roman people, he draws some unexpected inferences from the evidence that survives. In particular, he emphasises the significance of the annual series of 'stage games', and reveals the hitherto unexplored common ground of literature, drama and dance. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Latin literature|xHistory and criticism.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008106708 650 0 Popular culture and literature|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2007008526|zRome.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79039816-781 650 7 Latin literature.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 993331 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Criticism, interpretation, etc.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 776 08 |iPrint version:|aWiseman, T.
