Supplementum Epigraphicum Graecum OnlineEdited by A. Chaniotis, T. Corsten, R.S. Stroud and R.A. Tybout

Supplementum Epigraphicum Graecum (SEG) is an annual publication collecting newly published Greek inscriptions and studies on previously known documents. Material later than the 8th century A.D. is not included. Supplementum Epigraphicum Graecum (SEG) presents complete Greek texts of all new inscriptions with a critical apparatus; it summarizes new readings, interpretations and studies of known inscriptions, and occasionally presents the Greek text of these documents. Inscriptions are listed by their provenance, e.g. Dodona or Abdera. These place names are grouped into regions, such as Attica or Illyria. In the SEG Online, in order to keep lists and loading times short, these regions are grouped into several larger areas: 1. Greece2. North3. Aegean4. West5. Asia Minor6. East

This list serves as the table of contents of the SEG Online. You can click on an area to go to the list of regions and click on a region for the list of place names and click on a place name for the inscriptions found there.

Lemma StructureEach lemma has a unique identifi er made up from the printed volume and sequence number, e.g. 50-326. (Note that the SEG Online uses Arabic numerals, not Roman). This number is followed by a heading stating origin, type and date of the inscription, e.g. Kos. Funerary epigram for Nikaia, 2nd cent. A.D.

Money in the Late Roman RepublicDavid B. Hollander

Relying on a variety of literary, documentary and archaeological sources, this work explores the Roman military supply system from the Punic Wars to the end of the Principate. Each chapter is devoted to a different aspect of logistics: supply needs and rations; packs, trains and military servants; foraging and requisition; supply lines; sources of supply; administration; and the impact of logistics on Roman warfare. As a whole the book traces the development of the Roman logistics into a highly sophisticated supply system - a vital element in the success of Roman arms. In addition, it makes a critical study of important technical questions of Roman logistics, such as the size of the soldier’s grain ration, the function of military servants, and the changes in logistical management under the Republic and Empire.

This volume on Thucydides, the most important historian of the ancient world, comprises articles by thirty leading international scholars. The contributions cover a wide range of issues, including Thucydides’ life, intellectual milieu and predecessors, Thucydides and the act of writing, his rhetoric, historical method and narrative techniques, narrative unity in the History, the speeches, Thucydides’ reliability as a historian, and his legacy through the centuries. Other topics dealt with include warfare, religion, individuals, democracy and oligarchy, the invention of political science, Thucydides and Athens, Sparta, Macedonia/Thrace, Sicily/South Italy, Persia, and the Argives. The volume aims to provide a survey of current trends in Thucydidean studies which will be of interest to all students of ancient history.

Brill’s Companion to Thucydides was awarded Choice Outstanding Academic Title 2007.

Roman monetary history has tended to focus on the study of Roman coinage but other assets regularly functioned as, or in place of, money. This book places coinage in its broader monetary context by also examining the role of bullion, financial instruments, and commodities such as grain and wine in making payments, facilitating exchange, measuring value and storing wealth. The use of such assets reduced the demand for coinage in some sectors of the economy and is a crucial factor in determining the impact of the large increase in the coin supply during the last century of the Republic. Money demand theory suggests that increased coin production led to further monetization, not per capita economic growth.

Their literary qualities, never in dispute, can be more fully appreciated in the light of recent developments in the study of pragmatics, narratology, and orality. Their intellectual status has been radically reassessed: no longer regarded as naïve and ‘archaic’, the Histories are now seen as very much a product of the intellectual climate of their own day - not only subject to contemporary literary, religious, moral and social influences, but actively contributing to the great debates of their time. Their reliability as historical and ethnographic accounts, a matter of controversy even in antiquity, is being debated with renewed vigour and increasing sophistication. This Companion offers an up-to-date and in-depth overview of all these current approaches to Herodotus’ remarkable work.

This volume on the Roman poet Ovid (43 BCE – 17 CE) comprises articles by an international group of fourteen scholars. Their contributions cover a wide range of topics, including a biographical essay, a survey of the major manuscripts and textual traditions, and a comprehensive discussion of Ovid’s style. The remaining chapters are devoted to focused studies of each of Ovid’s major works, with emphasis given where appropriate to the poet’s interest in genre and narrative techniques, his engagement with the poetry that preceded his oeuvre, his response to the political, religious, and social realities of Augustan Rome, and his enduring legacy in the European literary traditions of the first 1300 years after his death. Brill’s Companion to Ovid combines close analysis of each of Ovid’s major works with a comprehensive overview of scholarly trends in the study of Latin poetry and Roman literary culture. It will be a valuable resource for students and scholars of Latin literature alike.

Brill’s Companion to Greek and Latin Epyllion and Its ReceptionEdited by Manuel Baumbach and Silvio Bär

In classical scholarship of the past two centuries, the term “epyllion” was used to label short hexametric texts mainly ascribable to the Hellenistic period (Greek) or the Neoterics (Latin). Apart from their brevity, characteristics such as a predilection for episodic narration or female characters were regarded as typically “epyllic” features. However, in Antiquity itself, the texts we call “epyllia” were not considered a coherent genre, which seems to be an innovation of the late 18th century. The contributions in this book not only re-examine some important (and some lesser known) Greek and Latin primary texts, but also critically reconsider the theoretical discourses attached to it, and also sketch their literary and scholarly reception in the Byzantine and Middle Ages, the Renaissance, and the Modern Age.

Die dramatische Zeit in Senecas TragödienAndreas Heil, Technische Universität Dresden

In four separate studies, Andreas Heil shows that Seneca, in his tragedies Thyestes, Hercules furens, Troas (Troades) and Medea, handles dramatic time less experimentally than has been assumed before. In all of these plays, taking into consideration the accompanying action on the stage and the characters’ respective points of view, a gradually developing plot can be reconstructed. Thus, the survey considerably deepens our understanding of Seneca’s dramatic technique.

A Commentary on Augustine’s De cura pro mortuis gerendaRhetoric in PracticePaula J. Rose

In De cura pro mortuis gerenda Augustine interweaves an assessment of burial near the memorial of a martyr with a series of dream narratives. The seeming lack of coherence between argument and narrative in this treatise has puzzled many scholars. Combining an analysis of the overall structure of the argument and a detailed philological commentary, this study shows that Augustine’s text forms a well-composed unity. The study is based on discourse-linguistic and narratological concepts as well as an analysis of the global structure of the narratives. Relying on this combined approach Rose demonstrates how Augustine explores the full breadth of his narrative material in the service of his argument. In addition, this book situates Augustine’s text in its cultural-historical context.

Commenter la Thébaïde (16e-19e s.)Caspar von Barth et la tradition exégétique de StaceValéry Berlincourt, University of Geneva

Performance in Greek and Roman TheatreEdited by George W. M. Harrison, Concordia University, and Vayos Liapis, Open University of Cyprus

Images of Eternal Beauty in Funerary Verse Inscriptions of the Hellenistic and Greco-Roman PeriodsAndrzej Wypustek, University of wrocław

Early modern commentaries on Statius’ Thebaid have been little studied; even that by Barth (1664-5), which holds a conspicuous place among them, has only been taken into account now and then, and often in a rather superficial way. The present book, which makes use of unpublished archival material, offers a comprehensive overview of these works (contexts, contents, interconnections). It is particularly interested in 16th-17th commentators and strives to give Barth’s achievement the attention it deserves. By closely looking at the various ways in which the commentaries respond to Statius’ poem, but also at the various kinds of discourse they present, it casts a new light on the reception of the Thebaid and on the early modern practice of commentary-writing.

In recent years, classicists have begun aggressively to explore the impact of performance on the ways in which Greek and Roman plays are constructed and appreciated, both in their original performance context and in re-performances down to the present day. While never losing sight of the play scripts, it is necessary to adopt a more inclusive point of view, one integrating insights from archaeology, art, history, performance theory, theatre semiotics, theatrical praxis, and modern performance reception. This volume contributes to the restoration of a much-needed balance between performance and text: it is devoted to exploring how performance-related considerations (including stage business, masks, costumes, props, performance space, and stage-sets) help us attain an enhanced appreciation of ancient theatre.

In Images of Eternal Beauty in Funerary Verse Inscriptions of the Hellenistic and Greco-Roman Periods Andrzej Wypustek provides a study of various forms of poetic heroization that became increasingly widespread in Greek funerary epigram. The deceased were presented as eternally young heroes, oblivious of old age and death, as stars shining with an eternal brightness in heavens or in Ether, or as the ones chosen by the gods, abducted by them to their home in the heavens or married to them in the other world (following the examples of Ganymede, Adonis, Hylas and Persephone). The author demonstrates that, for all their diversity, the common feature of these verse inscriptions was the praise of beauty of the dead.

Aesthetic Value in Classical AntiquityEdited by Ineke Sluiter and Ralph M. Rosen

Parthenope, The Interplay of Ideas in Vergilian BucolicGregson Davis, New York University

Tacitus the Epic SuccessorVirgil, Lucan, and the Narrative of Civil War in the HistoriesTimothy A. Joseph, The College of the Holy Cross

How do people respond to and evaluate their sensory experiences of the natural and man-made world? What does it mean to speak of the ‘value’ of aesthetic phenomena? And in evaluating human arts and artifacts, what are the criteria for success or failure? The sixth in a series exploring ‘ancient values’, this book investigates from a variety of perspectives aesthetic value in classical antiquity. The essays explore not only the evaluative concepts and terms applied to the arts, but also the social and cultural ideologies of aesthetic value itself. Seventeen chapters range from the ‘life without the Muses’ to ‘the Sublime’, and from philosophical views to middle-brow and popular aesthetics. Aesthetic Value in Classical Antiquity should be of interest to classicists, cultural and art historians, and philosophers.

This study of the Eclogues focuses on Vergil’s exploration of issues relating to the subject of human happiness (eudaimonia)–ideas that were the subject of robust debate in contemporary philosophical schools, including the community of émigré Epicurean teachers and their Roman pupils located in the vicinity of Naples (“Parthenope”). The latent “interplay of ideas” implicit in the songs of the various poet-herdsmen centers on differing attitudes to acute misfortune and loss, particularly in the spheres of land dispossession and frustrated erotic desire. In the bucolic dystopia that Vergil constructs for his audience, the singers resort to different means of coping with the vagaries of fortune (tyche). This relatively neglected ethical dimension of the poems in the Bucolic collection receives a systematic treatment that provides a useful complement to the primarily aesthetic and socio-political approaches that have predominated in previous scholarship.

Allusions to the epic poets Virgil and Lucan in the writing of the Roman historian Tacitus (c. 55 – c. 120 C.E.) have long been noted. This monograph argues that Tacitus fashions himself as a rivaling literary successor to these poets; and that the emulative allusions to Virgil’s Aeneid and Lucan’s Bellum Civile in Books 1–3 of his inaugural historiographical work, the Histories, complement and build upon each other, and contribute significantly to the picture of repetitive, escalating civil war in the work. The argument is founded on the close reading of a series of related passages in the Histories, and it also broadens to consider certain narrative techniques and strategies that Tacitus shares with writers of epic.

The Use of Anonymous Characters in Greek TragedyThe Shaping of HeroesFlorence Yoon, University of British Columbia

Quintus Smyrnaeus’ PosthomericaEngaging Homer in Late AntiquityCalum Alasdair Maciver

Society, Medicine and Religion in the Sacred Tales of Aelius AristidesIdo Israelowich

Anonymous characters appear in almost every extant Greek Tragedy, yet they have long been overlooked in critical scholarship. This book argues that the creation and use of anonymous figures is an important tool in the transformation of traditional mythological heroes into unique dramatic characters. Through close reading of the passages in which nameless characters appear, this study demonstrates the significant impact of their speech, actions, and identity on the characterization of the particular named heroes to whom they are attached. Exploring the boundaries between anonymity and naming in mythico-historical drama, the book draws attention to an important but neglected aspect of the genre, suggesting a new perspective from which to read, perform, and appreciate Greek Tragedy.

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.

Aelius Aristides’ Sacred Tales offer a unique opportunity to examine how an educated man of the Second Century CE came to terms with illness. The experiences portrayed in the Tales disclose an understanding of illness in both religious and medical terms. Aristides was a devout worshipper of Asclepius while at the same time being a patient of some of the most distinguished physicians of his day. This monograph offers a textual analysis of the Sacred Tales in the context of the so-called Second Sophistic; medicine and the medical use of dream interpretation; and religion, with particular emphasis on the cult of Asclepius and the visual means used to convey religious content.

Water and Roman UrbanismTowns, Waterscapes, Land Transformation and Experience in Roman BritainAdam Rogers, University of Leicester

Individuals and Society in Mycenaean PylosDimitri Nakassis, University of Toronto

Water and Roman Urbanism: Towns, Waterscapes, Land Transformation and Experience in Roman Britain offers a new perspective for investigating Roman settlement and how urban spaces were created and experienced by focusing on the relationship between settlement and water and the meanings attributed to these places. Rather than a descriptive approach to the urban fabric it emphasises social context and cultural meaning through interpretative frameworks of analysis. Central are the cultural and experiential implications of water forming part of towns, rather than economic and practical arguments, and the way in which these places were used and altered over time. The book emphasises a social approach and has considerable implications for our understanding of life in the Roman period as a whole.

This book revises our understanding of Mycenaean society through a detailed analysis of individuals attested in the administrative texts from the Palace of Nestor at Pylos in southwestern Greece, ca. 1200 BC. It argues that conventional models of Mycenaean society, which focus on administrative titles and terms, can be improved through the study of named individuals. A new, methodologically innovative prosopography demonstrates that many named individuals were not only important managers of palatial affairs but also high-ranking members of the community. This work significantly broadens the elite class and suggests that the palace was less of an agent in its own right than an institutional framework for interactions amongst individuals and social groups.

Disabilities in Roman AntiquityDisparate Bodies A Capite ad CalcemChristian Laes, Free University of Brussels, University of Antwerp, Chris Goodey, The Open University, and M. Lynn Rose, Truman State University

The Ancient Sailing SeasonJames Beresford, Lahore University

The Julio-Claudian SuccessionReality and Perception of the “Augustan Model”Edited by A.G.G. Gibson, University of St Andrews

This is the first volume ever to systematically study the subject of disabilities in the Roman world. The contributors examine the topic a capite ad calcem, from head to toe. Chapters deal with mental and intellectual disability, alcoholism, visual impairment, speech disorders, hermaphroditism, monstrous births, mobility problems, osteology and visual representations of disparate bodies. The authors fully engage with literary, papyrological, and epigraphical sources, while iconography and osteo-archaeology are taken into account. Also the late ancient evidence is taken into account. Refraining from a radical constructionist standpoint, the contributors acknowledge the possibility of discovering significant differences in the way impairment was culturally viewed or assessed.

Providing a comprehensive examination of the capacity of ancient ships and seafarers to cope with seasonally changing sea conditions, this book draws on a wide range of ancient literary sources while also taking account of modern weather records, hydrological data, and recent archaeological discoveries. Taking a fresh look at the various ways in which seasonality affected maritime transport across the sea-lanes of the ancient world, this book offers new perspectives on the nature of seaborne trade, naval warfare and piratical operations. The result is a volume that questions many long-held scholarly assumptions concerning the strength and seaworthiness of ancient vessels, as well as the abilities of Greek and Roman mariners, to regularly undertake voyages across hazardous stretches of sea.

This collection of essays considers the challenging questions around the formation, establishment and continuation of the Julio-Claudian principate from the coming to power of Augustus. Augustus laid down the ground rules for a princeps, and the essays explore the subsequent transition of power, and how the succession and subsequent rule manifested itself, even though there was no formal mechanism for such a transfer. These essays fully utilize the extant literary, epigraphic, numismatic and visual record to evaluate Augustus’ “political legacy”. The representation, and retention, of power was a critical issue for the princeps and his subjects, and the contributors provide fresh political and literary analysis of aspects of the principates of Augustus, Tiberius, Claudius and Nero.

Xenophon: Ethical Principles and Historical EnquiryEdited by Fiona Hobden and Christopher Tuplin

Religion and Social Transformations in CyprusFrom the Cypriot Basileis to the Hellenistic StrategosGiorgos Papantoniou, Trinity College, Dublin

Processes of Integration and Identity Formation in the Roman RepublicEdited by S.T. Roselaar

Xenophon’s personal history was exceptional for its combination of Socratic education and the exercise of military leadership in a time of crisis. His writings provide an intellectually and morally consistent response to his times and to the issue of ethical but effective leadership, and they play a special role in defining our sense of the post-Athenian-Empire Greek world. Recent Xenophontic scholarship has established the general truth of these claims. The current volume will not only reinforce them but also contribute to greater understanding of a voice that is neither simply ironic nor simply ingenuous and of a view of the world that is informed by an engagement with history.

This monograph focuses on religion to explore how the socio-cultural infrastructure of Cyprus was affected by the transition from segmented administration by many Cypriot kings to the island-wide government by a foreign Ptolemaic correspondent. It approaches politico-religious ideological responses and structures of symbolism through the study of sacred landscapes, specific iconographic elements, and archaeological contexts and architecture, as well as through textual and epigraphic evidence. A fresh approach to the transition is put forward, connecting the island more emphatically with its longue durée. Moving beyond the field of Cypriot studies, this work also serves as a paradigm for the study of religion in relation to social power in other fields of classics and, in particular, for the enrolment of other areas of the Mediterranean into the political and cultural Hellenistic oikoumene.

This volume is the result of a conference, held at Manchester in July 2010, on processes of integration and identity formation in the Roman Republic. This book focuses especially on day-to-day contexts in which Romans and Italians interacted, which are essential for understanding long-term developments. The book discusses settlement patterns (e.g. Roman colonies), the Roman army, and the administration of Italy, as well as the long-term consequences of contact, such as growing social and economic networks, linguistic, religious, and cultural changes, transformations of identity in Rome and Italy, and demands for Roman citizenship by Italians. It combines new archaeological evidence with literary and epigraphic evidence, and thus gives an overview of current research on integration and identity in the Roman Republic.

Rome, a City and Its Empire in Perspective: The Impact of the Roman World through Fergus Millar’s ResearchRome, une cité impériale en jeu : l’impact du monde romain selon Fergus MillarEdited by Stéphane Benoist

Coining Images of PowerPatterns in the Representation of Roman Emperors on Imperial Coinage, A.D. 193-284Erika Manders

Fergus Millar’s works have renewed our approach of the Roman world. He had studied the functioning of the Roman Empire in the perspective of the Emperor’s activities, from Augustus to Constantine; as well as the Republic during the last two centuries BC in order to revalue the people within the institutions; and finally the Near East from Augustus to Constantine, and then to the Muslim conquest. He uses to be engaged with the whole evidence (literary, epigraphic, papyrological, juridical and archaeological) that he examines closely with revived view-points. Distinguished and younger scholars have dealt, during a seminar, with the main aspects of Millar’s research, its reception and the reactions it has raised, and proposed surveys about current inquiries, as well as perspectives for future studies.

Current scholarship on Roman imperial representation addresses both the ways in which individual rulers presented themselves to their subjects and how particular aspects of imperial representation developed over time. This book combines these two approaches. It examines the diachronic development of the representation of Roman imperial power as a whole in one medium over a longer period of time. Through a quantitative and qualitative analysis of coin types issued between A.D. 193 and 284, patterns in the representation of third-century Roman emperors on imperial coinage are made visible. The result is a new perspective on the development of imperial ideology in times of crisis.

Trading Communities in the Roman WorldA Micro-Economic and Institutional PerspectiveTaco T. Terpstra, Columbia University

Ancient Roman trade was severely hampered by slow transportation and by the absence of a state that helped traders enforce their contracts. In Trading Communities in the Roman World: A Micro-Economic and Institutional Perspective Taco Terpstra offers a new explanation of how traders in the Roman Empire overcame these difficulties. Previous theories have focused heavily on dependent labor, arguing that transactions overseas were conducted through slaves and freedmen. Taco Terpstra shows that this approach is unsatisfactory. Employing economic theory, he convincingly argues that the key to understanding long-distance trade in the Roman Empire is not patron-client or master-slave relationships, but the social bonds between ethnic groups of foreign traders living overseas and the local communities they joined.

Aristotle’s Metaphysics LambdaAnnotated Critical Edition Based upon a Systematic Investigation of Greek, Latin, Arabic and Hebrew Sources Stefan Alexandru

Simplicius on the Planets and Their MotionsIn Defense of a HeresyAlan C. Bowen

In this annotated critical edition of Aristotle’s Metaphysics Lambda Stefan Alexandru explores and utilizes for the first time numerous previously neglected textual sources, written in Greek, Latin, Arabic, and Hebrew. The twelfth book of the Metaphysics, originally an independent treatise, is crucial for the understanding of Aristotle’s philosophy, primarily because the doctrine of the Unmoved Mover is nowhere else set forth in greater detail. All the forty-two formerly known Greek codices have been collated, with additional commentaries and translations. Moreover, a hitherto undiscovered, independent manuscript, representing a tenuous and particularly valuable branch of the direct tradition, is minutely investigated. The document in question, preserved in the Vatican, is an autograph of the Byzantine humanist and Ecumenical Patriarch Gennadios II Scholarios.

Though the digression closing Simplicius’ commentary on Aristotle’s De caelo 2.12 has long been misread as a history of early Greek planetary theory, it is in fact a creative reading of Aristotle to maintain the authority of the De caelo as a sacred text in Late Platonism and to refute the polemic mounted by the Christian, John Philoponus. This book shows that the critical question forced on Simplicius was whether his school’s acceptance of Ptolemy’s planetary hypotheses entailed a rejection of Aristotle’s argument that the heavens are made of a special matter that moves by nature in a circle about the center of the cosmos and, thus, a repudiation of the thesis that the cosmos is uncreated and everlasting.

Philosophia AntiquaA Series of Studies on Ancient PhilosophyEdited by K.A. Algra, F.A.J. DeHaas, J. Mansfeld, C.J. Rowe, D.T. Runia and Ch. Wildberg

Previous Editors: J.H. Waszink†, W.J. Verdenius† and J.C.M. Van Winden

From its foundation in the late forties, Philosophia Antiqua has been the premier series of monographs on the history of ancient philosophy in the scholarly world, covering all periods from the Presocratics to the later Neoplatonists. The series now emphasises areas that have been less well represented in past literature: Hellenistic philosophy, the Sceptical tradition, Galen and other non-Platonist authors of later antiquity. Alongside traditional text-orientated works (editions, translations, commentaries and analyses of particular texts and authors), the series offers a forum for works showing the interaction of ancient and modern topics of philosophical interest and between ancient and modern forms of philosophical analysis. Such less-traditional studies will no longer assume a thorough knowledge of ancient Greek and Latin on the part of the reader. Volumes are published in English, French and German. The series does not include Festschriften.

Theoria, Praxis, and the Contemplative Life after Plato and AristotleEdited by Thomas Bénatouïl and Mauro Bonazzi

Studies of the notion of theoria and of the contemplative life have often been restricted to Plato and Aristotle. This volume shows that aspirations to contemplation and the life of the intellect survived long after the classical period, turning into topics of heated debates, powerful arguments and original applications throughout the Hellenistic, imperial, and late antique periods. The introduction attempts to reconstruct all the problems pertaining to the contemplative life in Antiquity, and the twelve papers, written by distinguished scholars, offer a thorough study of the appropriation, criticism and transformation of Plato’s and Aristotle’s positions on the contemplative life, including its epistemological and metaphysical foundation. The volume ranges from Theophrastus to the end of Antiquity, including Jewish and Christian authors, with a focus on Platonism from Cicero to Damascius.

The Eudemian Ethics on the Voluntary, Friendship, and LuckThe Sixth S.V. Keeling Colloquium in Ancient PhilosophyEdited by Fiona Leigh

Reflecting the relatively recent high level of scholarly interest in Aristotle’s Eudemian Ethics (EE), each paper in this collection is concerned first and foremost to understand the arguments from the EE it examines in terms of that work alone. The papers, by David Charles, Christopher Rowe, M.M. McCabe, Jennifer Whiting, and Friedemann Buddensiek, focus variously on the topics of the voluntary, friendship and luck, only drawing on other texts in the service of illuminating the EE. The result is a volume containing novel, at times even conflicting, readings of questions central to understanding this important text and Aristotle’s ethics in general.

Plutarch in the Religious and Philosophical Discourse of Late AntiquityEdited by Lautaro Roig Lanzillotta, University of Groningen, and Israel Muñoz Gallarte, University of Córdoba

The works of Plutarch, notably his Moralia, provide us with exceptional evidence to reconstruct the spiritual and intellectual atmosphere of the first centuries CE. As a priest of Apollo at Delphi, Plutarch was a first range witness of ancient religious experience; as a Middle Platonist, he was also actively involved in the developments of the philosophical school. Besides, he also provided a more detached point of view both regarding numerous religious practices and currents that were permeating the building of ancient pagan religion and the philosophical views of other schools. His combining the insider and the sensitive observer’s perspectives make Plutarch a crucial starting point for the understanding of the religious and philosophical discourse of Late Antiquity.

Studies in Platonism, Neoplatonism, and the Platonic TraditionEdited by Robert M. Berchman, Dowling College and Bard College, and John. F. Finamore, University of Iowa

Originally conceived, the series covers studies in Platonism, Neoplatonism, and the Platonic Tradition, which means it covers ancient philosophy in general but also the tradition in its medieval, modern, and post-modern “horizons.” This means that the subseries publishes works, historically and thematically, across the whole “Platonic tradition.”

Studies on Plato, Aristotle and ProclusThe Collected Essays on Ancient Philosophy of John ClearyBy John Cleary, and edited by John Dillon, Trinity College Dublin, Brendan O’Byrne, Trinity College Dublin, and Fran O’Rourke, University College Dublin

John Cleary (1949 – 2009) was an internationally recognised authority in many aspects of ancient philosophy. As well as penetrating and original studies of Plato, Aristotle, and Proclus, he was particularly interested in the philosophy of mathematics, and ancient theories of education. The essays included in this collection display Cleary’s range of expertise and originality of approach. Cleary was especially attentive to the problems involved in the interpretation of a philosophical text: in his reading of Plato he recognised the special status of dialogue as a privileged mode of philosophical writing. His underlying concern was the open-ended character of philosophy itself, to be pursued with intellectual rigour and respect both for the question and one’s interlocutor. These collected essays are representative of John Cleary’s philosophical life’s work.

Iamblichus and the Foundations of Late PlatonismEdited by Eugene Afonasin, John Dillon, and John F. Finamore

Art, Intellect and PoliticsA Diachronic PerspectiveEdited by Giusy Maria Ausilia Margagliotta and Andrea Aldo Robiglio

Iamblichus of Chalcis (c. 240-c. 325 C.E.), successor to Plotinus and Porphyry, gave new life to Neoplatonism with his many philosophical and religious refinements. Once regarded as a religio-magical quack, Iamblichus is now seen as a philosophical innovator who harmonized not only Platonic philosophy with religious ritual but also Platonism with the ancient philosophical and religious tradition. Building on recent scholarship on Iamblichean philosophy, the ten papers in this volume explore various aspects of Iamblichus’ oeuvre. These papers help show that Iamblichus re-invented Neoplatonism and made it the major school of philosophy for centuries after his death.

The volume explores the relationship of artists and intellectuals from ancient Greece to modern times. Special attention is paid to Plato, Augustan poets (including the reception), Soviet art (Mayakowsky) and Jewish intellectuals. Non European contexts (China, Turkey) are treated as well.

International Studies in the History of RhetoricEdited by Laurent Pernot and Craig Kallendorf

Peer-reviewed scholarly monographs on the history of rhetoric in its broadest sense, i.e. original and innovative research concerning the theory and the practice of rhetoric in all periods and all languages, and the connections between rhetoric and poetics, theory and literary criticism, philosophy, politics, religion, law and other aspects of culture and society. Original sources and documents, as well as critical editions of texts will also be considered. Manuscripts in English, French, German, Italian and Spanish are accepted for review.

Enargeia in Classical Antiquity and the Early Modern AgeThe Aesthetics of EvidenceHeinrich F. Plett, Universität Duisburg-Essen

Treatise on Biblical RhetoricRoland Meynet

The present study provides an extensive treatment of the topic of enargeia on the basis of the classical and humanist sources of its theoretical foundation. These serve as the basis for detailed analyses of verbal and pictorial works of the Classical Antiquity and the Early Modern Age. Their theoretical basis is the tradition of classical rhetoric with its principal representatives (Aristotle, Cicero, Quintilian) and their reception history. The ‘enargetic’ approach to the arts may be described as rhetoric of presence and display, or aesthetics of evidence and imagination. Visual imagination plays a major role in the concepts of effect in oratory, poetry, and drama of the Classical Antiquity and the Early Modern Age. Its implementations are manifested in the Second Sophistic and in the Early Modern Age, there above all in the works of William Shakespeare.

The specific laws of composition of biblical texts, which were first discovered from the mid-eighteenth century, are becoming increasingly well-known. This Treaty represents the sum of Biblical and Semitic rhetoric, in an abridged translation of the French original. The first chapter traces the history of the discovery of biblical rhetoric, the last chapter opens future prospects. The main text of the book is organized into three sections covering the three major fields of research: 1. Composition: The Levels of Composition, The Figures of Composition, Rewriting. 2. Context: Intratext, Intertext, The Center of concentric constructions. 3. Interpretation: Editing and translating, Composition and Interpretation, Intertext and Interpretation, The gift of interpretation. Numerous examples illustrate this methodical and rigorous exposition.

Gratia in Augustine’s Sermones ad Populum during the Pelagian ControversyDo Different Contexts Furnish Different InsightsAnthony Dupont, katholieke Universiteit Leuven

Augustine beyond the BookIntermediality, Transmediality and ReceptionEdited by Karla Pollmann and Meredith Gill

Art, History and the Historiography of Judaism in the Greco-Roman WorldSteven Fine, Yeshiva University

During the last decades, the doctrine of grace of Augustine of Hippo (354-430) has been studied in depth. The occurrence of grace in Augustine’s ca. 580 sermones ad populum has not yet been systematically analysed. This monograph studies the presence of grace in sermones preached during the period of the Pelagian controversy – a debate precisely on the relation between divine grace and human freedom. Does Augustine deal with grace differently in these sermones and his anti-pelagian tractates? First, the gratia content of the sermones does not differ from that of the systematic treatises. Second, the treatment of this topic differs on occasion, a difference determined by the biblical, liturgical, rhetorical and contextual framework of the sermones. This book explores the anthropological-ethical perspective of grace in Augustine, which results in a correction of the image of an Augustine overemphasising God and neglecting man, and in a plea to see continuity in his thinking on grace.

Augustine of Hippo (354-430) is arguably the most influential thinker and Latin author of the Early Christian period. His widespread legacy has been explored to date only in part, and largely with respect to his textual reception. This interdisciplinary volume attempts to redress this emphasis with a set of analyses of Augustine’s impact in the visual arts, drama, devotional practices, music, the science-faith debate and psychotherapy. The included studies trace intricate and occasionally surprising instances of Augustine’s ubiquitous presence in intellectual, spiritual and artistic terms. The result is a far more differentiated and dynamic picture of the mechanisms by which the legacy of an historical figure may be perpetuated, including the sometimes supra-rational and imaginative dimensions of transmission.

Art, History and the Historiography of Judaism in the Greco-Roman World explores the complex interplay between visual culture, texts and their interpretations, arguing for an open-ended and self-aware approach to understanding Jewish culture from the first century CE through the rise of Islam. The essays assembled here range from the “thick description” of Josephus’ Bezalel son of Uri as a Roman architect through the inscriptions of the Dura Europos synagogue, Jewish reflections on Caligula in color, the polychromy of ancient Jewish artifacts and new-old approaches to the zodiac and to the Christian destruction of ancient Jewish artifacts. Taken together, they suggest a humane approach to the history of the Jews in an age of deep and long lasting transitions-- both in antiquity, and in our own time.

Bodies of Knowledge in Ancient MesopotamiaThe Diviners of Late Bronze Age Emar and their Tablet CollectionMatthew Rutz, Brown University

The Letters of Symmachus: Book 1Translated by Michele Renee Salzman, University of California at Riverside, and Michael Roberts, wesleyan University

In Bodies of Knowledge in Ancient Mesopotamia Matthew Rutz explores the relationship between ancient collections of texts, commonly deemed libraries and archives, and the modern interpretation of titles like ‘diviner’. By looking at cuneiform tablets as artifacts with archaeological contexts, this work probes the modern analytical categories used to study ancient diviners and investigates the transmission of Babylonian/Assyrian scholarship in Syria. During the Late Bronze Age diviners acted as high-ranking scribes and cultic functionaries in Emar, a town on the Syrian Euphrates (ca. 1375-1175 BCE). This book’s centerpiece is an extensive analytical catalogue of the excavated tablet collection of one family of diviners. Over seventy-five fragments are identified for the first time, along with many proposed joins between fragments.

This introduction to, commentary on, and translation into English of the first book of letters by Quintus Aurelius Symmachus shows the leading orator and statesman of the fourth-century Roman Senate deeply engaged in conversation with the leading men of the empire. The book highlights the influence of the late Roman aristocracy that flourished in the century after Constantine and demonstrates that it did not become powerless in the face of the bishops and the new Christian elite. Shared goals united the late Roman elites far more than religion divided them, helping explain the relatively nonviolent and gradual conversion of the western Roman aristocracy. One hundred and seven letters—crafted to match the recipient’s personality, status, and interest—discuss literature, religion, politics, and social life. They provide a unique window into the private lives of Rome’s leaders, pagan and Christian, in late antiquity.

JANER defines Ancient Near Eastern civilization broadly as including not only the Biblical, Hellenistic and Roman world but also the impact of Near Eastern religions on the western Mediterranean. JANER is the only peer-refereed journal specifically and exclusively addressing this range of topics, and is intended to provide an international scholarly forum for studies on all aspects of ancient religions. JANER welcomes submissions that introduce new evidence, revise old understandings, and advance debates on ancient Near Eastern ideas and practices of the otherworldly.

The Ceremonial Sculptures of the Roman GodsBrian Madigan, wayne State University

Monumenta Graeca et RomanaEditor-in-Chief: John M. Fossey, McGill University Associate Editor: Angelo Geissen, University of Cologne

Volumes in this peer-reviewed series treat subjects concerning the material and visual culture of the Greek and Roman world from later prehistory to Late Antiquity (that is from the middle of the 2nd millennium BCE to the third quarter of the 1st millennium CE). Geographically the area covered ranges from Western Europe to the Near East, from the Black Sea to Northern Africa. Monumenta Græca et Romana will continue to house monographs on the type of thematic subjects in the area of the history of ancient art already produced in the series; henceforth it will also contain volumes which constitute full, analytical catalogues raisonés of similar classes of material in the collections of museums and other public institutions.

The well-known formats of Roman sculpture are the ones best preserved, but inevitably limited to those designed to be permanent and immobile. A significant component of the Roman visual world missing from this record are those images which depict or stand in for the Roman gods during ceremonies. Statuary of this type is in some measure mobile, designed specifically to be carried about in processions, brought out for public viewing at throne ceremonies, or participate in divine banquets. In addition to defining the characteristics of these ceremonial sculptures, this study also addresses their performative qualities: where and how they appeared, who was responsible for handling them, with what conventions of decorum, and with what response from the audience.

Translations of the SublimeThe Early Modern Reception and Dissemination of Longinus’ Peri Hupsous in Rhetoric, the Visual Arts, Architecture and the TheatreEdited by Caroline van Eck, Stijn Bussels, Maarten Delbeke and Jürgen Pieters

Contrary to widely held assumptions, the early modern revival of ps-Longinus’ On the Sublime did not begin with the adaptation published by Boileau in 1674; it was not connected solely with the Greek editions that began to appear from 1554; nor was its impact limited to rhetoric and literature. Manuscript copies began to circulate in Quattrocento Italy, but very few have been studied. Neither have the ways the sublime was used, in rhetoric and literature, but also in the arts, architecture and the theatre been studied in any systematic way. The present volume is a first attempt to chart the early modern translations of Peri hupsous, both in the literal sense of the history of its dissemination by means of editions, versions and translations in Latin and vernacular languages, but also in the figurative sense of its uses and transformations in the visual arts in the period from the first early modern editions of Longinus until its popularization by Boileau.

L’art du siège néo-assyrienFabrice De Backer

In L’art du siège néo-assyrien, Fabrice De Backer investigates the people, materials, tools, machines, and tactics employed during the first millenium B.C. by the Neo-Assyrians to take and defend fortified cities. The story of besieged people, along with their customs, treatment by the winners, and consequences of the conquest are also discussed. Based on the combination of archaeology, iconography, philology and ethnographical comparisons, the analysis of the particular assets of siege-engines or architectural features are developed, along with the best means employed at that time to overcome them. De Backer proposes more than a simple census of all the means known so far, he also develops and enhances our knowledge of siege-warfare in a pragmatic and efficient manner.

Heritage and IdentityIssues in Cultural Heritage ProtectionEdited by Joris D. Kila and James A. Zeidler

Cultural heritage is continually under threat from human conflict, natural disaster or theft. The books published in this new series will contribute to the global dialogue about (a) the social value of cultural heritage as collective memory and identity, (b) how we can effectively protect cultural property in contexts of human conflict, natural disaster, or theft and looting, (c) ethical and legal consequences for institutions such as museums and universities as well as collectors and dealers when confronted with rare antiquities of unknown or with—in hindsight—politically incorrect provenance, (d) how the past is or was represented in history and the present, depending on geographical and political location and how cultural heritage is or should be protected and conserved for the future. The series will have a multidisciplinary perspective which will include aspects of international law, cultural diplomacy, the role of military forces, other stakeholders such as NGOs and IOs, exploitation of cultural resources, connections with environmental aspects, discussions on “repatriation” of artefacts, national laws on ownership, illicit traffic of cultural property and the different aspects of intangible cultural property.

Cultural Heritage in the Cross-HairsProtecting Cultural Property during ConflictJoris D. Kila, University of Amsterdam and James A. Zeidler, Colorado State University

The protection of cultural property during times of armed conflict and social unrest has been an on-going challenge for military forces throughout the world even after the ratification and implementation of the 1954 Hague Convention and its two Protocols by participating nations. This volume provides a series of case studies and “lessons learned” to assess the current status of Cultural Property Protection (CPP) and the military, and use that information to rethink the way forward. The contributors are all recognized experts in the field of military CPP or cultural heritage and conflict, and all are actively engaged in developing national and international solutions for the protection and conservation of these non-renewable resources and the intangible cultural values that they represent.

Constantinople to CórdobaDismantling Ancient Architecture in the East, North Africa and Islamic SpainMichael Greenhalgh

A survey of the various ways in which the extensive remains of ancient architecture were reused or destroyed in the crescent from Greece and Turkey through Syria, Palestine, North Africa to Islamic Spain. The book complements and echoes some of the themes in the author’s “Marble Past, Monumental Present” (2009). Offering a large number of varied examples, it examines how the ancient landscape was transformed - towns, roads and ports, fountains and waterways, tombs, palaces, villas and inscriptions. It then addresses reuse in churches, mosques and other structures, dealing also with collectors and museum-builders. Also considered are the dismantling and transport of the often massive blocks, and the superstitions surrounding antiquities which contributed to their continuing renown or to their destruction.

Heritage under SiegeMilitary Implementation of Cultural Property Protection Following the 1954 Hague ConventionJoris D. Kila, University of Amsterdam

Heritage under Siege, winner of the Blue Shield Award 2012, is the result of international multidisciplinary research on the subject of military implementation of cultural property protection (CPP) in the event of conflict. The book considers the practical feasibility as well as ideal perspectives within the juridical boundaries of the 1954 Hague Convention. The situation of today’s cultural property protection is discussed. New case studies further introduce and analyze the subject. The results of field research which made it possible to follow and test processes in conflict areas including training, education, international, interagency, and interdisciplinary cooperation are presented here. This book gives a useful overview of the playing field of CPP and its players, as well as contemporary CPP in the context of military tasks during peace keeping and asymmetric operations. It includes suggestions for future directions including possibilities to balance interests and research outcomes as well as military deliverables. A separate section deals with legal aspects.

Studies in Ancient MedicineEdited by John Scarborough, Philip J. van der Eijk, Ann Ellis Hanson and Joseph Ziegler

Studies in Ancient Medicine considers the medical traditions of ancient civilizations. The Graeco-Roman traditions are the focus of the series, but Byzantine, Medieval and early Islamic medicine is also included, as is medicine in Egyptian, Near Eastern, Armenian and other related cultures.The series is intended for readers with interests in Classics, Ancient History, Ancient Philosophy, Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages, History of Medicine and Science, Intellectual History, Byzantium, Islam, as well as for those whose professional involvement in medical practice gives them an interest in the history and traditions of their field.

The series includes monographs, critical editions, translations and commentaries on medical texts and collective volumes on the theory and practice of public and private medicine in Antiquity and the Middle Ages, drawing on written sources and other historical and archaeological evidence. The series also contains annotated bibliographies of published works relevant to particular subfields and lexica of medical terms in the various ancient traditions.

Medicine and Society in Ptolemaic EgyptPhilippa Lang, Emory University

Greek Medicine from Hippocrates to GalenSelected PapersJacques Jouanna, Université de Paris-Sorbonne and Institut de France (Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres). Translated by Neil Allies, edited by Philip van der Eijk

Current questions on whether Hellenistic Egypt should be understood in terms of colonialism and imperialism, multicultural separatism, or integration and syncretism have never been closely studied in the context of healing. Yet illness affects and is affected by nutrition, disease and reproduction within larger questions of demography, agriculture and environment. It is crucial to every socio-economic group, all ages, and both sexes; perceptions and responses to illness are ubiquitous in all kinds of evidence, both Greek and Egyptian and from archaeology to literature. Examing all forms of healing within the specific socioeconomic and environmental constraints of the Ptolemies’ Egypt, this book explores how linguistic, cultural and ethnic affiliations and interactions were expressed in the medical domain.

This volume makes available for the first time in English translation a selection of Jacques Jouanna’s papers on medicine in the Graeco-Roman world. The papers cover more than thirty years of Jouanna’s scholarship and range from the early beginnings of Greek medicine to late antiquity. Part One studies the ways in which Greek medicine is related to its historical and cultural background (politics, rhetoric, drama, religion). Part Two studies a number of salient features of Hippocratic medicine, such as dietetics, theories of health and disease and concepts of psychosomatic interaction, in relation to Greek philosophical thought. Part Three studies the reception of Hippocratic medicine, especially medical ethics and the theory of the four humours, in Galen and in late antiquity.

Blood, Sweat and Tears - The Changing Concepts of Physiology from Antiquity into Early Modern EuropeEdited by Manfred Horstmanshoff, Helen King, and Claus Zittel

The history of anatomy has been the subject of much recent scholarship. This volume shifts the focus to the many different ways in which the function of the body and its fluids were understood in pre-modern European thought. Contributors demonstrate how different academic disciplines can contribute to our understanding of ‘physiology’, and investigate the value of this category to pre-modern medicine. The book contains individual essays on the wider issues raised by ‘physiology’, and detailed case studies that explore particular aspects and individuals. It will be useful to those working on medicine and the body in pre-modern cultures, in disciplines including classics, history of medicine and science, philosophy, and literature.

Greek and Roman Musical StudiesEdited by Andrew Barker, University of Birmingham

Greek and Roman Musical Studies is a new journal, the first specialist periodical in the fields of ancient Greek and Roman music. It will publish papers offering cultural, historical, theoretical, archaeological, iconographical and other perspectives on music in Classical antiquity, and on its reception in later times (especially the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, but also more recent periods). The Editorial Board will also consider contributions on music elsewhere in the Mediterranean region, including Egypt, Syria, Palestine and Mesopotamia. Cross-disciplinary approaches will be particularly appreciated.

The first issue, early in 2013, includes an important collection of detailed and illustrated articles by seven distinguished specialists on the contents of two associated graves found in Athens. One, the “Musician’s Grave”, is unique. Among its unprecedented contents were two writing tablets, the oldest papyrus ever found in Greece, and the remains of auloi, a lyre and a type of harp previously known only from late fifth-century vase-paintings. Pottery from the second grave confirms a date close to 430 BC. Other articles in the issue discuss musicological topics from a wide range of historical, anthropological, cultural and theoretical positions.

Brill Studies in Greek and Roman EpigraphyEditorial Board: John Bodel, Brown University, and Adele Scafuro, Brown University

Brill Studies in Greek and Roman Epigraphy is a new peer-reviewed book series, publishing monographs and collected volumes on all aspects of Greek and Roman inscription. These include first editions of new and significant inscriptions, new editions of previously published and important inscriptions, with significant new readings and analysis as well as studies that deal with ‘practical matters’ of epigraphy, from lettering and methods of inscribing, to formulae used by civic bodies, to methods of recording and editing texts and ‘supports’. In addition, it welcomes volumes of historical studies that make significant use of inscriptions and occasionally conference proceedings.

Inscribed Athenian Laws and Decrees 352/1-322/1 BCEpigraphical EssaysStephen Lambert

Inscriptional Records for the Dramatic Festivals in AthensIG II2 2318–2325 and Related TextsEdited, with Introductions and Commentary by Benjamin W. Millis and S. Douglas Olson

This book collects eighteen papers which make original contributions to the study of the inscribed laws and decrees of the city of Athens, 352/1-322/1 BC, the most richly documented period of the city’s history. Originally published in academic journals, conference proceedings and Festschriften between 2000 and 2010, they lay groundwork for the author’s new edition of these inscriptions, IG II³ Part 1, fascicule 2. The papers, which are based on fresh comprehensive autopsy of the stones and study of squeezes, photographs and early transcripts, report important epigraphical findings (e.g. new readings, restorations, joins and datings), and include studies of onomastics and of the chronology and the history of the period.

IG II2 2318–2325 represent the most substantial surviving body of evidence for the institutional history of the Athenian dramatic festivals from their establishment at the end of the 6th century BCE to their disappearance sometime in the mid- to late 100s. Millis and Olson offer a completely updated text of the inscriptions, based on a close study of the stones themselves; detailed explanations of the restorations of the dimensions and organization of the original records, with numerous redatings and the like; and new — and in some cases radically different — reconstructions of the monuments on which they were inscribed. The volume also includes substantial interpretative essays on each set of records, a full epigraphic and prosopographic commentary, and several indices.

Culture and History of the Ancient Near EastFounding Editor: M.H.E. Weippert, Editor-in-Chief: Thomas Schneider Editors: Eckart Frahm, Yale University; W. Randall Garr, University of California, Santa Barbara; B. Halpern, Pennsylvania State University; Theo P.J. van den Hout, Oriental Institute; Irene J. Winter, Harvard University

Since 1982, the Culture and History of the Ancient Near East series has become a primary forum for studying all aspects of ancient Near Eastern civilizations. Across a chronological and geographical swath, it covers religion, history, language, literature, thought, science, art & visual culture, and architecture. The series demands high scholarly standards and innovative approaches. It publishes monographs and collected volumes in English, French, and German.

Puzzling Out the PastStudies in Northwest Semitic Languages and Literatures in Honor of Bruce ZuckermanEdited by Marilyn J. Lundberg, west Semitic Research, Steven Fine, Yeshiva University, and Wayne T. Pitard, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

Aramaic and Hebrew Inscriptions from Mt. Gerizim and Samaria between Antiochus III and Antiochus IV EpiphanesJan Dušek

Bruce Zuckerman has transformed the way we look at ancient Semitic inscriptions. Through his efforts, the most important inscriptions of biblical times have been reread and the history of the biblical and Second Temple periods reimagined. He has made contributions to the fields of biblical studies and modern Judaism, and, in founding Maarav: A Journal for the Study of the Northwest Semitic Languages and Literatures, has made the research of many scholars available to the scholarly community. The series of articles included here honor his many contributions through discussions of a wide variety of inscriptional materials, Biblical texts, archaeology, lexicography and teaching methodology. Included in the volume is a republication of his path breaking exhibition catalogue, Puzzling Out the Past.

The theme of the book stands on the intersection of epigraphy and historical research: the Aramaic and Hebrew inscriptions discovered in the vicinity of the Yahwistic sanctuary on Mt. Gerizim and their historical background. The study addresses the evidence from three perspectives: the paleography and dating of the inscriptions; the identity of the community who carved them and its institutions; and, finally, the larger historical and political context in which the inscriptions were produced. This book is particularly useful for historians of Palestine in the Second Temple period, for biblical scholars, and for those dealing with Aramaic and Hebrew paleography and epigraphy.

Supplementum Epigraphicum Graecum, Volume LVIII (2008)Edited by A. Chaniotis, T. Corsten, R.S. Stroud and R.A. Tybout

Weather Omens of Enūma Anu EnlilThunderstorms, Wind and Rain (Tablets 44–49)Erlend Gehlken, University of Frankfurt/Main

SEG LVIII covers the publications of the year 2008, with occasional additions from previous years that we missed in earlier volumes and from studies published after 2007 but pertaining to material from 2008.

The Assyro-Babylonian omen series Enūma Anu Enlil, written on seventy cuneiform tablets, bears witness to the early understanding of the mutual interactions of heaven and earth on both the physical and the religious levels. To facilitate accessibility, technical and linguistic commentaries as well as an excerpt series were compiled by the scholars of old. This ancient knowledge, which was still largely characterized by mythological concepts, was never completely abandoned, not even when the ‘calculating’ astronomy became prevalent in the first millennium B.C. The series deals in four parts with the moon, the sun, weather phenomena, and fixed stars and planets. This book offers an edition of the texts of the second half of the weather section with the accompanying material.

MetaformsStudies in the Reception of Classical AntiquityEdited by Almut-Barbara Renger, John T. Hamilton and Jon Solomon

Metaforms publishes monographs and collected volumes devoted to the critical investigation of a broad and diverse field: the reception of Greco-Roman Antiquity. It is particularly committed to research that considers the practices, premises, and constituting effects of creative work that deals directly with past traditions in a variety of media and discourses including, but not limited to, literature, film, and visual art. The editors welcome projects that examine engagements with the major canon as well as with lesser known texts and histories. Studies may concentrate on single works, figures, themes, motifs or concepts as they course through multiple epochs and cultures. Insofar as each specific case invariably broaches fresh questions and concerns, the series contributes to the growing theoretical configuration of an “aesthetics of reception.” Standard models of work in reception theory—for example, from hermeneutics, pragmatism, and intellectual and conceptual history—stand to undergo serious modification and re-orientation.For queries about book proposals or manuscript submissions, please contact Irene van Rossum, at rossum@brill.com.

Ancient Worlds in Film and TelevisionGender and PoliticsEdited by Almut-Barbara Renger, Freie Universität Berlin and Jon Solomon, University of Illinois

Reading the Roman Republic in Early Modern EnglandFreyja Cox Jensen

More than a century ago, filmmakers made their primary focus innovative and widely promulgated visions of antiquity, creating a profound effect on the critical, popular, and scholarly reception of antiquity. In this volume, scholars from a variety of countries and varying academic disciplines have addressed film’s way of using the field of Classical Reception to investigate, contemplate, and develop hypotheses about present-day culture, society, and politics, with a particular emphasis on gender and gender roles, their relationship to one another, and how filmic constructions of masculinity and femininity shape and are shaped by interacting economic, political, and ideological practices.

Placing the reading of history in its cultural and educational context, and examining the processes by which ideas about ancient Rome circulated, this study provides the first assessment of the significance of Roman history, broadly conceived, in early modern England. The existing scholarship, preoccupied with republicanism in the decades before the Civil Wars, and focusing on the major drama of the period, has distorted our understanding of what ancient history really meant to early modern readers. This study articulates the connections between the history of education, reading and writing, and challenges the schools of historical thought which associate a particular classical source with one set of readings; here, for the first time, is an in-depth analysis of the role of Roman history in creating an English latinate culture which encompassed far wider debates and ideas than the purely political.

Studies on Early Modern AristotelianismPaul Richard Blum, Loyola University Maryland

A Companion to Boethius in the Middle AgesEdited by Noel Harold Kaylor, Jr. and Philip Edward Phillips

In Studies on Early Modern Aristotelianism Paul Richard Blum shows that Aristotle’s thought remained the touchstone of modern philosophy; for it was the philosophy taught at universities. The concept of philosophy at Jesuit schools forms the first part of this book. Their impact on the sciences and mathematics in combination with Renaissance ideas of nature is the topic of the second part. The transformation of Aristotelian metaphysics and theology under the influence of the Renaissance is the third area of this book. Surprising continuity from the late Middle Ages into modernity and the radical difference of subject centered modern philosophy from ‘teachable’ school philosophy are innovative in these studies.

The articles in this volume focus upon Boethius’s extant works: his De arithmetica and a fragmentary De musica, his translations and commentaries on logic, his five theological texts, and, of course, his Consolation of Philosophy. They examine the effects that Boethian thought has exercised upon the learning of later generations of scholars--including, to a degree, scholars of the 21st century. The field of Boethian Studies has enjoyed a continuous history of works that treat either the entire Boethian tradition or major aspects of it. This volume offers a comprehensive study, and its construction is systematic, considering Boethius’s works both as central to the disciplines that they represent and to the areas of scholarly interest that they influenced, and it is framed by articles on the historical contexts in which those works were produced.

Brill’s New Pauly is the first lexicographic project that both differentiates between Greco-Roman antiquity itself and its subsequent images, and demonstrates the close connection between antiquity and its aftermath. Volumes 1 to 15 (Antiquity) are devoted to Greco-Roman antiquity. Volumes I to V (Classical Tradition) are uniquely concerned with the long and influential aftermath of the classical heritage. Index Antiquity relates to the 15 volumes of Brill’s New Pauly that deal with Antiquity. Index The Classical Tradition, relates to the 5 volumes of Brill’s New Pauly that deal with the Classical Tradition.

Brill’s New Pauly is also available online (see p. 7).

For more information and individual title prices, please visit brill.com/bnp

Praise for Brill’s New Pauly‘Of considerable value to major academic libraries, this database and its multivolume print version suit the needs of archaeologists, classicists, historians, and linguists, i.e., users with a strong background in ancient languages and alphabets, classical scholarship, and world history.’ – Choice 2011.

‘It bears repeating: Brill’s New Pauly, an unsurpassed resource for concise and reliable information, should be a part of any library that serves students of the ancient world, including theology students and indeed the public in general.’ – Eckhard J. Schnabel, Bulletin for Biblical Research 21,2 (2011).

‘Brill’s New Pauly fills the need for a comprehensive online guide to the Classical world and the Classical tradition. Topics are covered in depth with references to primary sources and relevant bibliography. More than one of our Classics scholars has expressed to me pleasure that the New Pauly can be accessed online.’ – Tom Izbicki, Humanities Librarian, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey 2011.

Journal of Greek LinguisticsEdited by: Gaberell Drachman, University of Salzburg, Dag Trygve Truslew Haug, University of Oslo, Brian D. Joseph, The Ohio State University, Anna Roussou, University of Patras

• 2013: Volume 13, in 2 issues• ISSN 1566-5844 / E-ISSN 1569-9846• Institutional subscription rate Electronic only: EUR 174.- / US$ 233.- Electronic + print: EUR 209.- / US$ 280.- Print only: EUR 191.- / US$ 256.-• Individual subscription rate Print only: EUR 64.- / US$ 86.-

The Journal of Greek Linguistics (JGL) is an established peer-reviewed international journal dedicated to the descriptive and theoretical study of the Greek language from its roots in Ancient Greek down to present-day dialects and varieties, including those spoken in Asia Minor, Cyprus, Tsakonia, and the Greek diaspora. It aims to offer a focused outlet for publication of first-class research in Greek Linguistics, broadly construed.JGL’s goal is not only to reach linguists interested in the Greek language but also to engage the linguistics community and Hellenists more generally. The input to JGL will thus comprise any topic relevant to Greek linguistics, in the broadest sense, but with some preference given to material with wider relevance to specific subfields within linguistics proper. The intention is therefore on the one hand to encourage discussions and research that illuminate different aspects - theoretical, historical, and descriptive - of general linguistics using Greek data, and on the other hand to offer innovative solutions to problems and issues specific to the description and analysis of the Greek language.Greek has played a central role in linguistics and the study of language for centuries. JGL will bring the language into a key position in current debate within Linguistics and related fields.

Journal of the Philosophy of HistoryEditor-in-Chief: Frank R. Ankersmit, University of Groningen Editors: Mark Bevir, UC Berkeley, Paul Roth, UC Santa Cruz, and Jeff Malpas, University of Tasmania

• 2013: Volume 7, in 3 issues• ISSN 1872-261X / E-ISSN 1872-2636• Institutional subscription rate Electronic only: EUR 123.- / US$ 164.- Electronic + print: EUR 147.- / US$ 197.- Print only: EUR 135.- / US$ 180.-• Individual subscription rate Print only: EUR 46.- / US$ 62.-

Philosophy of history is a rapidly expanding area. There is growing interest today in: what constitutes knowledge of the past, the ontology of past events, the relationship of language to the past, and the nature of representations of the past. These interests are distinct from – although connected with – contemporary epistemology, philosophy of science, metaphysics, philosophy of language, and aesthetics. Hence we need a distinct venue in which philosophers can explore these issues. Journal of the Philosophy of History provides such a venue. Ever since neo-Kantianism, philosophy of history has been central to all of philosophy, whether or not particular philosophers recognized its potential significance. No philosophic account of knowledge and truth can be considered worthwhile unless it addresses the issue of how we relate to our past. Journal of the Philosophy of History assumes that epistemology, philosophy of language, and philosophy of science are incomplete if they ignore history. Once we historicize the relationship of language and the world, however, we raise a number of philosophical problems that call for deeper analysis and that are of the greatest significance for an adequate understanding of how language and science are possible. Journal of the Philosophy of History is a double blind peer reviewed philosophical journal. This journal is indexed by Web of Science and Scopus.
