The past decade has seen a flurry of interest in the Hesiodic corpus and its reception. This edited volume builds on that interest by focusing on Hesiodic fragments—terrain which is itself far from untrodden. Like many edited volumes, the book is a mixed bag, with some excellent and intriguing contributions, but it displays an occasional lack of consistency and coherence, perhaps reflected in the very vagueness of the editor’s mission statement: the volume ‘aims at bringing together a number of studies treating different aspects of this variegated material,’ exploring ‘questions of the three more common facets of Hesiodic research on fragmentary poems:’ genre and context, the Catalogue, and later receptions (p. xix). Within this wide remit, the volume’s contributors have produced a similarly variegated range of readings.
