Dimitris Stamatopoulos undertakes the first systematic comparison of the dominant ethnic historiographic models and divergences elaborated by Greek, Bulgarian, Serbian, Albanian, Romanian, Turkish, and Russian intellectuals with reference to the ambiguous inheritance of Byzantium. The title alludes to the seminal work of Nicolae Iorga in the 1930s, Byzantium after Byzantium, that argued for the continuity between the Byzantine and the Ottoman empires. The idea of the continuity of empires became a kind of touchstone for national historiographies. Rival Balkan nationalisms engaged in a "war of interpretation" as to the nature of Byzantium, assuming different positions of adoption or rejection...

Fascinated with the heritage of ancient Greece, early modern intellectuals cultivated a deep interest in its language, the primary gateway to this long-lost culture, rehabilitated during the Renaissance. Inspired by the humanist battle cry “To the sources!” scholars took a detailed look at the Greek source texts in the original language and its different dialects. In so doing, they saw themselves confronted with major linguistic questions: Is there any order in this immense diversity? Can the Ancient Greek dialects be classified into larger groups? Is there a hierarchy among the dialects? Which dialect is the oldest? Where should problematic varieties such as Homeric and Biblical Greek be placed? How are the differences between the Greek dialects to be described, charted, and explained? What is the connection between the diversity of the Greek tongue and the Greek homeland? And, last but not least, are Greek dialects similar to the dialects of the vernacular tongues? Why (not)? This book discusses and analyzes the often surprising and sometimes contradictory early modern answers to these questions.
Archäologische Universitätssammlungen finden sich heute zunehmend in einer Situation zwischen universitärem Alltag von Forschung und Lehre und den Ansprüchen, welche eine interessierte Öffentlichkeit stellt. Im vorliegenden Band berichten Mitarbeiter, Leiter und Kuratoren, aber auch Restauratoren, Kulturvermittler und Museumspädagogen, und decken dabei eine große fachliche Breite an unterschiedlichen archäologischen Disziplinen ab. Ziel ist es, erstmalig sowohl einen umfassenden Überblick über die Geschichte dieser Institutionen zu bieten als auch die Situation archäologischer Universitätssammlungen im deutschsprachigen Raum zu Beginn des 21. Jahrhunderts näher zu betrachten
This book deals with various aspects of ancient Greek scholarship and grammar. It contains five articles which discuss questions such as the form of the Alexandrian ekdosis on the basis of the relationship between the library artefact on one hand and the text as an object of editing on the other; the study of language within the Hellenistic scholarship; the ideological position adopted by Rome in the age of Augustus in its relations with the Greek world; some specific problems in Apollonius Dyscolus Peri epirrematon; and the origin of Greek scholiastic corpora.
Das Heroon von Trysa ist in seiner Vollständigkeit eines der spektakulärsten erhaltenen Monumente der griechisch-römischen Antike. Künstlerische und politische Aspekte in den Bildern beschäftigen heute ebenso wie das noch immer ungelöste Problem einer adäquaten Präsentation der Reliefs in Wien. Das Heroon von Trysa gehört zu den bedeutendsten Monumenten der griechisch-römischen Antike. Insbesondere die Vollständigkeit des Reliefschmuckes, der das Grabdenkmal des frühen vierten Jahrhunderts v. Chr. in der heutigen Türkei zierte, ist einzigartig und erlaubt eine Auseinandersetzung mit der Bilderwelt der Antike, mit Selbstdarstellung und Identität in der damaligen antiken Kultur. ...
