Sobre este artículo
Oxford University Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1983. Hardcover. 0198148542 . Foxing to top of textblock. Scholar's bookplate to inner cover (G. P. Goold). DJ spine a bit sunned. ; A large number of Greek religious poems in hexameter were attributed to Orpheus, as they were to similar miracle-man figures like Bakis, Musaeus, Abaris, Aristeas, Epimenides, and the Sybil. Of this vast literature, only two examples survive whole: a set of hymns composed at some point in the 2nd or 3rd century AD, and an Orphic Argonautica composed somewhere between the 4th and 6th centuries AD. Earlier Orphic literature, which may date back as far as the 6th century BC, survives only in papyrus scraps or in quotations by later authors. ; 296 pages .
