THE ORPHIC POEMS
Oxford University Press. Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1998. Hardcover. 0198148542 . Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing. ; 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; Sandpiper reprint of 1983 Edition. .
