Thinking with Classical Matter de Miriam Leonard

Thinking with Classical Matter: Proceedings of the British Academy, cartea 270

Editat de Miriam Leonard, Tim Whitmarsh
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 feb 2025
What is classical culture for? Thinking with Classical Matter brings together leading experts from across the humanities, and as a whole celebrates the career of Simon Goldhill, in order to consider the place of the Ancient Greco-Roman world in the formation and formulation of different orders of knowledge. Since at least the eighteenth century, the study of the Greece and Rome has played a pivotal role in both the institutional and intellectual partition of disciplines from philology to theology, aesthetics to anthropology. Such regimes of knowing, however, are also materially embedded. The knowing subject is at the same time a gendered body and the objects of knowledge are also their subject. Thinking with Classical Matter explores these questions from a wide range of theoretically informed perspectives and shows how the ancient world continues to prompt some of the most pressing questions in the humanities today.
