Quintus Smyrnaeus' Posthomerica (3rd century C.E.), the 14 book Greek epic on the Trojan War, is a text which has traditionally been overlooked in the main canon of Classical authors, and in fact until only recently has been largely ignored as a literary work. This book, the first monograph in English on the poem since 1904, examines the Posthomerica’s close relationship with the Homeric epics, with a focus on the originality and Late Antique interpretative bias of Quintus in his readings and emulation of Homer. The study deals specifically with three separate aspects of poetics, and their Homeric intertextuality: ecphrasis, gnomai, and similes, and their role within the poem’s narrative strategies, themes, and aims.

Henry Savery was Australia's first novelist and a convict transported to Port Arthur, Tasmania. It is widely acknowledged that his writing is more significant for its historical value than for its literary merit. Excerpt: The events of Savery's life and the autobiographical novel he has left us to give some insight into the man. He was, so far as can be learned, not striking in appearance. All we gain from the prison record is that he was five feet eight inches in height and that he had brown hair and hazel eyes. But he was not commonplace in temperament...The picture Savery gives in Quintus Servinton is then mostly true in analysis of what he was, less true in description and narration of what he did.
