The writers of Greece and Rome regularly imitated and alluded to the great authors of the past. Such imitations were not considered plagiarism, but as essential to the creation of a new work. Here the contributors analyse selected passages of Greek, Latin and English authors and illustrate how they created new works of art by imitating earlier passages.
