Description
California Studies in Classical Antiquity: Volume 8 brings together a fascinating collection of essays that delve into the art, literature, philosophy, and history of the ancient world. This volume provides readers with fresh perspectives on a wide range of topics, from lost cities and Corinthian vases to ancient Roman legislation and philosophical discoveries.
Highlights include J.G.T. and J.K. Anderson's intriguing exploration of a potential lost city, Darrell A. Amyx's revisitation of Corinthian vases at San Simeon, and Richard I. Frank's insightful study of Augustus' marriage and childbearing legislation. Additionally, readers will enjoy Mark Griffith's analysis of Mimnermos' poetic fragment, Steven Lattimore's interpretation of the mythological encounter between Oedipus and Teiresias, and Frank A. Lewis' exploration of Plato's concept of identity. With essays touching on iconography in Euripides, the Roman tragic spirit, and the costume of the Korai, this volume offers a rich and diverse exploration of classical antiquity.
This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact.
