Klooster (classics, U. of Amsterdam) presents a revision of her 2009 PhD dissertation at the University of Amsterdam, in which she contributes a new perspective to the recently revived interest in third-century BC Greek poetry. Concentrating on the interaction between contemporary poets, she examines the dynamics of imitation and reception in light of poetical self-positioning. In the courtly Alexandrian surroundings, she explains, choosing a poetic model and affiliation determined a poet's position in the cultural field. She discusses poetic predecessors in epigram; coming to terms with poetic models; appropriating mythical poets; criticizing and praising contemporaries; persona, alias, and alter ego in sphragix poetry; and authority and inspiration in the age of the museum.
