Journal Title: Collectanea Philologica - Year 2014, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
Among all the emotions and feelings characteristic to man, Theocritus devoted most attention to love. The concept of love is verbalized by lexis belonging to the cognominal thematic row which is included within the thematic group “mental state of man”. The feeling of love is also depicted by many metaphors and comparisons that give significant artistic value to the works of Theocritus.
