Le giornate dell'annuale Convegno del Centro Pio Rajna, organizzato a Napoli dal 26 al 29 ottobre 2010, hanno inteso affrontare un tema che tutti gli operatori culturali d'area umanistica avvertono come sempre più urgente e preoccupante: il costante incontenibile "appannamento" dei "classici" nell'orizzonte di lettura e d'interesse degli Italiani contemporanei. Il segnale più vistoso e inquietante, indizio di una diffusa situazione di "crisi", è dato dalla progressiva riduzione o chiusura di gran parte delle collane storiche di classici, talune di antica e gloriosa tradizione: in primo luogo di classici italiani, ma anche latini e greci, nonché stranieri. In questo quadro, si è posto il problema del perché i classici si stiano diradando nel panorama editoriale, e quasi scomparendo dall'odierno orizzonte culturale italiano. Recupero dei classici, oggi, significa recupero della identità culturale di una nazione che sta mettendo in discussione o in dubbio se stessa e sembra incerta o disorientata nel darsi una direzione di marcia sicura. Recupero e salvaguardia dei classici può significare tutela di quella identità: identità italiana, che è fulcro e parte integrante di una identità dell'Occidente, esposta a molte, troppe insidie.

This landmark collection looks at the role reception plays, or could play, within the modern discipline of classics, and presents a wide variety of viewpoints on its value, use, and theoretical underpinnings. Contributions by scholars from Europe, the UK, and the USA illustrate a range of different approaches and methodological commitments, and employ material from many different fields, from translation studies to the visual arts, and from politics to performance. The volume as a whole offers readers an enriched theoretical understanding of reception and its uses, and makes the case for reception constituting a vital part of classics in the future.

Dieser Band bringt eine Sammlung neuer Essays, die untersuchen, welche Rolle Horoskope und deren allgemeine Verwendung in der westlichen Kulturgeschichte von der Antike bis zum 19. Jahrhundert gespielt haben. This volume examines the specific role of horoscopic astrology in Western culture from antiquity to the nineteenth century. Focusing on the public appearance of astrological rhetoric, the essays break new ground for a better understanding of the function of horoscopes in public discourse. The volume's three parts address the use of imperial horoscopes in late antiquity, the transformation of doctrines and rhetorics in Islamic medieval contexts, and the important status of astrology in early modern Europe. The combination of in-depth historical studies and methodological considerations results in an important contribution to religious and cultural studies.
