A Man of Many Interests: Plutarch on Religion, Myth, and Magic
The title of this volume A Man of Many Interests: Plutarch on Religion, Myth, and Magic. Essays in honour of Aurelio Pérez Jiménez is first and foremost a coalescing homage to Plutarch and to Aurelio, and to the way they have been inspiring (as master and indirect disciple) a multitude of readers in their path to knowledge, here metonymically represented by the scholars who offer their tribute to them. The analysis developed throughout the several contributions favors a philological approach of wide spectrum, i.e., stemming from literary and linguistic aspects, it projects them into their cultural, religious, philosophical, and historical framework. The works were organized into two broad sections, respectively devoted to the Lives and to the Moralia.

Metaphor
The aim of the present bibliography is to provide the student of metaphor with an up-to-date and comprehensive (albeit not exhaustive) overview of recent publications dealing with various aspects of metaphor in a variety of disciplines. Where the emphasis is primarily on specific works “about” metaphor, mainly in philosophy, linguistics, and psychology, the list has been supplemented with references to studies where metaphor is explicitly recognized as an instrument of research or analysis (e.g., in literature, or in the elaboration of scientific and religious models) or where its use is illustrated.
Retórica a Herenio
La Retórica a Herenio es, junto con los tratados retóricos de Cicerón, la mejor muestra de la capacidad de absorción por los romanos de las teorÃas retóricas griegas. El tratado latino anónimo Retórica a Herenio, escrito entre el 86 y el 82 a.C., es la primera obra de retórica en lengua latina que conservamos. Teniendo en cuenta la escasez del léxico que padecÃa a la sazón el latÃn para los conceptos retóricos, resulta muy destacable la aportación del autor al vocabulario especializado: junto con Cicerón (al que durante mucho tiempo se atribuyó erróneamente esta obra) dotó a la lengua de una terminologÃa especÃfica que serÃa, a la postre, la que pasarÃa a las lenguas romances. En efecto, acuñó la nomenclatura latina mediante traducciones o calcos del griego y cargando palabras latinas con un sentido técnico nuevo; tan completo fue su logro terminológico que resultan mÃnimas las variantes que introdujo la tradición posterior. Además de esta decisiva adaptación a la nueva lengua, la obra sancionó el tratamiento de la retórica en las cinco partes (inventio, dispositio, elocutio, memoria y pronunciatio) que pasarÃan a ser normativas en estos estudios.
