INTERESTS: My research and publication have focused on the development of ancient Greco-Roman literary genres and their reflexes in later literature. I have been engaged with the evolution and mixture of these genres, especially in epic, lyric, tragedy, and satire. Other work has treated the influence of Renaissance Neo-Latin on seventeenth-century English poetry, and also the relationship of writers and rulers in first-century Rome.
