grbs-1201	Hunt, Jeffrey M.	Bucolic Experimentation in Theocritus’ Idyll 10	2009	22	.pdf	application/pdf	8466	333	53	They, along with the Nymphs, often appear in the bucolic world and typically are mentioned in a shepherd-poet’s appeal for inspiration or as deities favorable to those with exceptional poetic skill.35 The Muses, invoked in a variety of generic contexts, are appropriate to Bucaeus’ bucolic love song and further suggest his alignment with the bucolic world’s love-centered fiction. Theocritus enacts a literary experiment in Idyll 10 that brings a bucolic shepherd-poet, Bucaeus, into the world of the “reaper- poet” Milo, whose work song challenges and to some degree deconstructs Bucaeus’ attempt at bucolic song.	cache/grbs-1201.pdf	txt/grbs-1201.txt
