Battle and Culture

Sonya Nevin, University of Roehampton, UK This bold new history examines how the conflict of the Battle of Marathon unfolded, who was involved, and what it meant to the Athenians. After immersing the reader in the battle, this work explores the ideas attached to Marathon in antiquity and beyond. Marathon shaped how the ancient Athenians thought about themselves and how they related to others. It has influenced over years of education, thinking and expression. Sonya Nevin shows how the Battle of Marathon continued in the ages after antiquity, even into the present era, in which it has a remarkable role in sport, film, and children's literature.

Chaos, Cosmos and Creation in Early Greek Theogonies An Ontological Exploration

Olaf Almqvist, University College Dublin, Ireland

Military Departures, Homecomings and Death in Classical Athens Hoplite Transitions

Owen Rees, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK This volume sheds new light on the experience of ancient Greek warfare by identifying and examining three fundamental transitions undergone by the classical Athenian hoplite as a result of his military service: his departure to war, his homecoming from war having survived, and his homecoming from war having died. Taking each in turn, Owen Rees examines the transitions both from the perspective of the hoplite as a member of an oikos and as a member of the army, effectively mapping his experience as he moves between his domestic and military duties and allowing us to identify moments with the potential for a traumatic impact on the individual.

A Vocabulary of the Ancient Commentators on Aristotle

Combining the Greek–English Indexes from the Eponymous Series Spanning Works from the 2nd Century CE to Late Antiquity

Combining approaches from classical studies, anthropology and philosophy, this book studies three competing cosmologies of the early Greek world: Hesiod’s Theogony; the Orphic Derveni Theogony; and Protagoras’ creation myth in Plato’s eponymous dialogue. Olaf Almqvist argues that they offer very different answers to an ongoing debate on what it is to be human, how the world is composed, and humanity’s place within it. Engaging closely with the work of Philippe Descola, this book outlines three key sets of ontological assumptions – analogism, pantheism, and naturalism – in early Greek literature and explores how these competing ontological assumptions result in very different attitudes to rituals such as prayer and sacrifice.

An astounding project of analysis on translations of ancient philosophical texts, this index of words found in the Ancient Commentators on Aristotle series is a unique dictionary of philosophical terms and an essential reference tool for any scholar working on the meaning of ancient philosophical texts. McKirahan has combined each word entry from the ACA indexes and has analysed how many times particular translations occur, and shows how often each meaning has been used.

Pindar and the Sublime

Greek Myth, Reception and Lyric Experience Robert L. Fowler, University of Bristol, UK Pindar has often been taken as the archetype of the sublime poet: soaring into the heavens on wings of language and inspired by visions of eternity. In this much-anticipated new study Robert L. Fowler asks in what ways the concept of the sublime can still guide a reading of the greatest of the Greek lyric poets. Working with ancient and modern treatments of the topic, he develops the case for an aesthetic appreciation of Pindar’s odes as literature. Building on recent trends in criticism, he shifts the focus away from the first performance and the orality of Greek culture to reception and the experience of Pindar’s odes as text.

Future Fame in the Iliad

Epic Time and Homeric Studies Yukai Li, Carleton University, Canada When Homeric heroes think about the meaning of their actions, they expect this to take the form of kleos, 'fame', in a future song. This volume explores the consequences of this mode of thinking in the Iliad in particular, and argues that the form of kleos and the interposition of a gap of time between event and meaning produces widespread effects, not only for the thought and psyche of the heroes, but also for the nature of poetry and scholarship in the Homeric tradition.

Tacitus’ Wonders

Empire and Paradox in Ancient Rome Edited by James McNamara, University of Potsdam, Germany & Victoria Emma Pagán, University of Florida, USA This volume approaches the broad topic of wonder in the works of Tacitus, encompassing paradox, the marvellous and the admirable. Recent scholarship on these themes in Roman literature has tended to focus on poetic genres, with comparatively little attention paid to historiography: Tacitus, whose own judgments on what is worthy of note have often differed in interesting ways from the preoccupations of his readers, is a fascinating focal point for this complementary perspective.

Bloomsbury Ancient Comedy Companions C.W. Marshall, University of British Columbia, Canada and Niall W. Slater Emory University, USA

Plautus: Menaechmi

V. Sophie Klein, Boston University, USA Part of the Bloomsbury Ancient Comedy Companions series, this book is perfect for students coming to one of Plautus' most whimsical, provocative, and influential plays for the first time, and a useful first point of reference for scholars less familiar with Roman comedy. It analyzes the power dynamics at play in the various relationships, especially between master and slave and husband and wife, in order to explore the meaning of freedom and the status of slaves and women in Roman culture and Roman comedy. These fundamental societal concerns gave Plautus’ Menaechmi an enduring role in the classical tradition, which is also examined here, including notable adaptations by William Shakespeare (The Comedy of Errors), Jean François Regnard, Carlo Goldoni, and Rodgers and Hart.

Plautus: Mostellaria

George Fredric Franko, Hollins University, USA Plautus' Mostellaria is one of ancient Rome’s most breezy and amusing comedies. This is the first book to offer an in-depth study of the play in its literary and historical contexts, and aims to help readers appraise the script as both cultural document and performed comedy. In Mostellaria’s farce, sleek simplicity replaces complexity as Plautus aggrandizes his comic hero by stripping plot to the minimum and leaving Tranio to operate alone with no resources other than his quick wit. The enduring appeal of the genre is explored in a chapter on the play's reception, which reveals modernity’s continuing fascination with farce and shifting engagement with Roman culture.

Screening Love and War in Troy: Fall of a City Edited by Antony Augoustakis, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, USA & Monica S. Cyrino, University of New Mexico, USA

This is the first volume of essays published on the television series Troy: Fall of a City (BBC One and Netflix, 2018). Covering an engaging range of topics, such as gender, race and politics, international scholars in the fields of classics, history and film studies discuss how the story of Troy has been recreated on screen to suit the expectations of a modern audience. Divided into discussions on epic narrative, cast and character, as well as tragic resonances, this work handles important issues, such as race and gender, which affected the mythical city of Troy and which continue to impact our present society.

Geographies of Myth and Places of Identity The Strait of Scylla and Charybdis in the Modern Imagination Marco Benoît Carbone, University College London, UK Straddling the line between reality and myth, the Strait of Messina conjures images of ancient Greece, picturesque South Italy, and the mythical Scylla and Charybdis. From this geographical springboard, Marco Benoît Carbone traces the reflections of antiquity in modern-day popular culture centred on the Strait, exploring how the real village of Scilla has become a place-myth in contemporary imagination and media—a chronotope, elsewhere in space and time, defined chiefly by its literary aura.

Faulkner’s Reception of Apuleius’ The Golden Ass in The Reivers Vernon L. Provencal, Acadia University, Canada Vernon L. Provencal studies the presence of The Golden Ass in Faulkner’s final novel, The Reivers, by examining key intertextual parallels in genre, narrative, characters, plot, events, motifs and themes. Chief among these are parallels between the semiautobiographical protagonists Lucius Priest and the priest Lucius Apuleius, their picaresque adventures and the magical and famous metamorphosis into an ass.

Bloomsbury Studies in Classical Reception Gender, Creation Myths and their Reception in Western Civilization

Prometheus, Pandora, Adam and Eve Edited by Lisa Maurice, Bar-Ilan University, Israel & Tovi Bibring, Bar-Ilan University, Israel Chapters explore the role of gender in GrecoRoman and Judaeo-Christian creation myths and their reception traditions, demonstrating how perceptions of 'male' and 'female' dating back to antiquity have become embedded in and significantly influenced subsequent perceptions of gender roles. Focusing on the figures of Prometheus, Pandora, Adam and Eve and their instantiations in a broad range of narratives and media, the volume examines how variations on their stories reflect the concerns of the societies producing them and offers a comparative overview of the Judaic, Christian, Greek and Roman myths and their enduring relevance in the modern world.
