Summary |
The author seeks to demonstrate in the first chapter (which analyzes Virgil's working over of the text of Homer) that "on the contrary, imitation very often is the actual path of originality, the condition thanks to which it is brought into being--at least in the classical literatures, and as I believe, not only there. In the second chapter I reconstruct the presuppositions of a method." |
