The book delves into the emergence of artistic subjectivity in Archaic and Classical Greek art and literature, highlighting the interplay between vase-painting and poetry. It examines how poets like Archilochos and Hipponax aligned themselves with the character of Odysseus, while vase-painters drew inspiration from the resourceful Hephaistos. Hedreen reveals a shared image of the artist as socially marginal yet masterful, providing a fresh perspective on the connections between poetry and visual art in ancient Greece.
