My interests, broadly speaking, revolve around the theories and practice of Greek poetry from Homer to the Hellenistic period. My doctoral dissertation, which I am currently revising for publication, examines how historical developments at the beginning of the fifth century B.C. (especially the rising importance of written scripts to facilitate poetic (re)performance) influenced the poetry of Pindar and Aeschylus. I argue that these two poets responded in similar ways to concerns about the shifting character of their compositions, and that their work is connected by what I call a shared 'scriptory poetics'.
