"This volume charts the radical transformation of an inner city neighbourhood in Late Antique Carthage which was excavated over a five-year period by a team from the University of Cambridge. Bordering the main thoroughfare leading from the Byrsa Hill to the ports, the neighbourhood remained primarily a residential one from the second century until 530s AD when a substantial basilica was constructed over the eastern half of the insula. Further extensive modifications were made to the basilica half a century later when the structures on the western half of the insula were demolished and the basilica greatly enlarged with the addition of new east-west aisles, a large monumental baptistery and a crypt. By carefully reconstructing the complex architectural plan of this innovative building, this study shows how the remodelled Bir Messaouda basilica was transformed into a major pilgrimage centre; overturning established tradition that located such complexes outside the city walls. The Bir Messaouda basilica provides important insights into the transition between Vandal and Byzantine control of the city, the development of a new Christian intermural urban landscape in the sixth century AD, and the significance of the pilgrimage in reinforcing ecclesiastical authority in post-Justinianic North Africa." --

Thomas Gärtner befasst sich mit der Johannis, dem großen Feldherrnepos des bedeutenden spätantiken Dichters Coripp. Die Johannis ist dem Wirken des Feldherrn Johannes Troglita gewidmet, dem unter Kaiser Justinian I. im Jahre 548 n. Chr. die Rückeroberung und Befriedung Nordafrikas gelang. Die vorliegende Untersuchung besitzt ein doppeltes Erkenntnisziel: Zum einen wird Coripps Verarbeitung historischer Quellen beleuchtet, insbesondere sein Rückgriff auf die Geschichtsschreibung Prokops. Nicht minder wichtig ist die systematische literaturgeschichtliche Verortung von Coripps Werk in der Tradition der lateinischen Dichtung. Dieses Anliegen verfolgt Thomas Gärtner, indem er literarische Eigenschaften der Johannis einer gattungsspezifischen Analyse unterzieht. Neben der Bestimmung der Makrostruktur des Werks liegt ein besonderes Augenmerk schließlich auf der in der Coripp-Forschung vielfach vernachlässigten Analyse der Mikrostruktur des Abhängigkeitsverhältnisses zwischen Coripp und seinen antiken literarischen Vorbildern.

Playful, popular visions of Troy and Carthage, backdrops to the Iliad and Aeneid's epic narratives, shine the spotlight on antiquity's starring role in nineteenth-century culture. This is the story of how these ruined cities inspired bold reconstructions of the Trojan War and its aftermath, how archaeological discoveries in the Troad and North Africa sparked dramatic debates, and how their ruins were exploited to conceptualise problematic relationships between past, present and future. Rachel Bryant Davies breaks new ground in the afterlife of classical antiquity by revealing more complex and less constrained interaction with classical knowledge across a broader social spectrum than yet understood, drawing upon methodological developments from disciplines such as history of science and theatre history in order to do so. She also develops a thorough critical framework for understanding classical burlesque and engages in in-depth analysis of a toy-theatre production.
