The History of Roman Literature by Michael von Albrecht is a modern, comprehensive, and multifaceted approach to Latin literature from its beginnings to the 6th century AD.
In this two-volume work, published in German in 1994, broader considerations of Roman literary periods and individual literary genres are combined with specialized chapters where Roman authors are illuminated through various and consistently returning lenses: their life and work, their models and sources, literary technique, language and style, literary reflection, manuscript tradition, and their influences to this day.
Based on contemporary scientific data, the Greek receptions, the originality and value of the authors, and their profound influence on modern European literature are highlighted.
This volume presents Roman literature of the post-classical period, up to the end of Late Antiquity.
