The Culture of Kitharoidia - Hellenic Studies Series
Timothy Power
This book, the first study dedicated exclusively to the art, practice, and charismatic persona of the citharode, traverses a range of poetic and prose texts, iconography, and inscriptions. Power offers a nuanced account of aesthetic and sociocultural complexities of citharodic song and examines the role of the songmakers in the popular imagination.
