Book excerpt: Papyri Vergilianae rappresenta una novità el campo della filologia e della papirologia latina: si tratta della prima raccolta completa ed esaustiva dei papiri di Virgilio, frutto di acribia ecdotica e dell'esame autoptico dei testi, che vengono analiticamente schedati e di cui è data l'edizione critica. Si propone come strumento per un approccio filologico alle trentacinque testimonianze papiracee - inclusi frammenti membranacei, tavolette lignee ed ostraka - che, provenienti dalle province eccentriche dell'Impero (ed in particolare dalla pars Orientis), costituiscono parte della 'Storia della Tradizione' in quanto espressione della ricezione dell'opera di Virgilio e segno di una funzione ed una circolazione differenziata nei milieux culturali ed intellettuali provinciali tra I e VI secolo d.C. Il nucleo del volume è costituito dalla schedatura analitica dei documenti e da un'edizione dei loro testi 'a fronte' rispetto a quella virgiliana nota dal resto della tradizione manoscritta in base ad un'edizione critica di riferimento (rispettivamente 'Parte Seconda' e 'Parte Terza'), incorniciate da un'introduzione ('Parte Prima') ed una sezione contenente testi che, pur non essendo esametri virgiliani, ne documentano parimenti la fortuna ('Parte Quarta').
Download or read book Fakes and Forgers of Classical Literature written by Javier Martínez and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-01-16 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Right from the beginning, classical literature has been embroiled with questions of authenticity, fakes, frauds, and, of course, scandal. Issues of dubious authorship, and contested authority confront philologists, critics and publishers today as surely as they did in the classical era itself. The new era of postmodernism, however, encourages us to look at the work of the forger with fresh eyes, and recent scholarship reflects this in an interdisciplinary approach which goes well beyond the conventional academic endeavor to separate the authentic from the fake. Fakes and Forgers of Classical Literature comprises essays from an international cast of scholars who, in their diverse and creative approaches to questions of authenticity both old and new, radically revise the position of the forged text in the literary tradition and, in light of modern approaches of philology and literary criticism, offer exciting new strategies for understanding forgery and the play with authenticity within ancient literature itself.

Download or read book Greek Dialogue in Antiquity written by Katarzyna Jażdżewska and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-01-30 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Greek Dialogue in Antiquity reexamines evidence for Greek dialogue between the mid-fourth century BCE and the mid-first century CE - that is, roughly from Plato's death to the death of Philo of Alexandria. Although the genre of dialogue in antiquity has attracted a growing interest in the past two decades, the time covered in this book has remained overlooked and unresearched, with scholars believing that for much of this period the dialogue genre went through a period of decline and was revived only in the Roman times. The book carefully reassesses Post-Platonic and Hellenistic evidence, including papyri fragments, which have never been discussed in this context, and challenges the narrative of the dialogue's decline and subsequent revival, postulating, instead, the genre's unbroken continuity from the Classical period to the Roman Empire. It argues that dialogues and texts creatively interacting with dialogic conventions were composed throughout Hellenistic times, and proposes to reconceptualize the imperial period dialogue as evidence not of a resurgence, but of continuity in this literary tradition.

Download or read book Xenophon s Anabasis and its Reception written by Tim Rood and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2022-10-24 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume constitutes the first large-scale collaborative reflection on Xenophon’s Anabasis, gathering experts on Greek historiography and Xenophon. It is structured in three sections: the first section provides a linear reading of the Anabasis through chapters on select episodes (from Book 1 through Book 7), including the opening, Cyrus’ characterisation, the meeting of Socrates and Xenophon, Xenophon’s leadership, the marches through Armenia and along the Black Sea coast and the service under Seuthes in Thrace. The second section offers an in-depth exploration of hitherto overlooked recurrent themes. Based on new approaches and scholarly trends, it focuses on topics such as the concept of friendship, the speeches of characters other than Xenophon, the suffering of the human body, the role of rumour and misrepresentation, and the depiction of emotions. The third section offers a more thorough investigation of the manifold reception of this work (in Antiquity, Byzantium, Renaissance, modern period, in cinema studies and illustrations). Finally, in acknowledgement of the Anabasis’ long history as a pedagogical text, the volume contains an envoi on the importance and benefits of teaching Xenophon and the Anabasis, more specifically.
Download or read book Theodoros Prodromos Miscellaneous Poems written by Nikos Zagklas and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-05-25 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In twelfth-century Byzantium, poetry played a key part in various contexts of textual production and consumption. One of the leading poets of this period was Theodoros Prodromos, whose surviving corpus comprises approximately 17,000 verses. Even though most of his poetry has been presented in modern critical editions, a group of his works has been overlooked by modern philologists and literary scholars alike. The selected corpus--conventionally designated as Miscellaneous Poems--consists of texts on various themes and in a wide range of genres, ranging from cycles of religious and secular epigrams to riddles, ethopoiiai, and works of a self-referential and essayistic nature. This book includes the first critical edition and study of these poems, accompanied by English translations and commentaries. Their study contributes to a more nuanced picture of Prodromos' intellectual profile, expanding his image as the 'poet laureate' of the Komnenian court and providing entirely new insights into his activity in the different settings of Constantinopolitan intellectual life. The book also sheds new light on the complex relationship between patronage and other aspects of literary activity and the circulation of the same text in different performative contexts.
