Συναγωνίζεσθαι: Studies in Honour of Guido Avezzù. Vol. 1.1
Συναγωνίζεσθαι, the ancient Greek verb chosen as the title of this volume, belongs to the jargon of dramaturgy as employed by Aristotle inPoetics, where he emphasizes the function of the Chorus as an active co-protagonist in the dynamics of drama. Here it suggests the collaborative nature of this Festschrift offered to Guido Avezzù in the year of his retirement by friends and colleagues. The volume collects a wide selection of contributions by international scholars, grouped into four sections: Greek Tragedy (Part 1), Greek Comedy (Part 2), Reception (Part 3), and Theatre and Beyond (Part 4).

Community and Identity at the Edges of the Classical World
A timely and academically-significant contribution to scholarship on community, identity, and globalization in the Roman and Hellenistic worlds Community and Identity at the Edges of the Classical World examines the construction of personal and communal identities in the ancient world, exploring how globalism, multi-culturalism, and other macro events influenced micro identities throughout the Hellenistic and Roman empires.

A new generation of international scholars challenge traditiona...
A Companion to Ancient Epigram
A delightful look at the epic literary history of the short, poetic genre of the epigram From Nestor’s inscribed cup to tombstones, bathroom walls, and Twitter tweets, the ability to express oneself concisely and elegantly, continues to be an important part of literary history unlike any other. This book examines the entire history of the epigram, from its beginnings as a purely epigraphic phenomenon in the Greek world, where it moved from being just a note attached to physical objects to an actual literary form of expression, to its zenith in late 1st century Rome, and further through a period of stagnation up to its last blooming, just before the beginning of the Dark Ages. A Companion t...
Argonáuticas
Eis aqui uma das mais conhecidas histórias de todos os tempos. Ela descreve a perigosa expedição de Jasão e seus companheiros, os argonautas, entre os quais Teseu e Héracles, rumo à Cólquida em busca do velocino de ouro (um carneiro mitológico com pelagem de ouro). Seja por reunir esses três grandes super-heróis gregos, e Medeia, seja por conter todas as características das famosas epopeias homéricas, a narrativa mantém-se popular, a despeito de todas as mudanças culturais. Isso se deve muito a Apolônio de Rodes, que no século III a.C., nas Argonáuticas, deu ao relato sua forma escrita, a mesma que serviu de base para todas as adaptações já feitas em nossa época no cinema e nos quadrinhos. Esta edição bilíngue do poema traz primorosa tradução e dois ensaios de Fernando Rodrigues Junior contextualizando a obra e o autor e analisando o papel nela desempenhado pelo heroísmo, essa liga de coragem e persistência sem a qual as grandes aventuras seriam impossíveis. DA CAPA Imagem da capa: retrato de Apolônio de Rodes, a partir de uma cópia do que seria um busto do autor.

Beyond the Canon
This volume contains the papers of the 'Seventh Groningen Workshop on Hellenistic Poetry: Beyond the Canon' (Groningen 2004). During the workshop a first draft of each of the papers was commented on by an international group of specialists in the field of Hellenistic poetry. A number of previous workshops was devoted largely to the major Hellenistic poets. This recent workshop explores what the poets 'beyond the canon' of Callimachus, Theocritus and Apollonius Rhodius had to offer and it discussed questions of canonicity in Hellenistic poetry on a more general level. The papers in the present volume deal with a large range of authors and genres: Herondas, Lycophron, Euphorion, Hermesianax, C...
