Roman Literature, Gender and Reception: Domina Illustris: Routledge Monographs in Classical Studies

Editat de Donald Lateiner, Barbara K. Gold, Judith Perkins
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 feb 2017
This cutting-edge collection of essays offers provocative studies of ancient history, literature, gender identifications and roles, and subsequent interpretations of the republican and imperial Roman past. The prose and poetry of Cicero and Petronius, Lucretius, Virgil, and Ovid receive fresh interpretations; pagan and Christian texts are re-examined from feminist and imaginative perspectives; genres of epic, didactic, and tragedy are re-examined; and subsequent uses and re-uses of the ancient heritage are probed with new attention: Shakespeare, Nineteenth Century American theater, and contemporary productions involving prisoners and veterans.
Comprising nineteen essays collectively honoring the feminist Classical scholar Judith Hallett, this book will interest the Classical scholar, the ancient historian, the student of Reception Studies, and feminists interested in all periods. The authors from the United States, Britain, France and Switzerland are authorities in one or more of these fields and chapters range from the late Republic to the late Empire to the present.

Recenzii

"If the title of the book reflects the scholarly interests of the dedicatee, the articles pay due homage to the curiosity and acumen she displays in her own numerous books and articles. Each contribution is worthy of reading, but those in the "Reception" section are especially engaging, introducing readers to the often strange and always fascinating subject of classical antiquity’s influence on the art and literature of subsequent ages, including the present. Summing up: Highly Recommended."M.J. Johnson, Vanderbilt University, CHOICE
"This Festschrift for Judith Hallett of the University of Maryland is lavishly gift-wrapped for the honorand. Most classicists at any level should find several of these papers interesting. They offer highly speculative, but nonetheless plausible arguments for intriguing fresh ideas." – James Jope, Bryn Mawr Classical Review (BMCR)
