One of the main legal principles in ancient Greece was obedience to the law (nomos). Particularly, its importance is based on the fact that it was a central element for the shaping of a harmonious and powerful polis, in which citizens could flourish and lead a happy life. In addition, good legal order was so important that several sources reveal a strong rejection against any such person who, as tyrants, threatens the integrity of political institutions and prioritizes their own interests above anything else. In this regard, the author known as “Anonymous Iamblichus”, who is thought to have written in the age of the great Sophists, hypothesizes about the existence of a man of steel (adamantinos aner) to show that no one, no matter how extraordinary and powerful, could live outside the law, justice, and community. This book explores the ethical-political meaning of this argument with the intention of reflecting on the value of laws and their authority. Guided by a methodology that combines a philological analysis and a legal philosophy approach, it seeks to emphasize the richness of Anonymous Iamblichus' text to understand the development process of the supremacy of the law in the history of Athenian democracy. Uno de los principales principios jurídicos en el mundo griego antiguo era la obediencia a la ley (nómos). En especial, su importancia se explica porque constituía un elemento central para la conformación de una pólis armónica y poderosa, en la que los ciudadanos puedan desarrollarse y llevar a cabo una vida feliz. Además, el buen orden legal era tan importante que varias fuentes revelan un fuerte rechazo contra toda aquella figura que, como el tirano, atente contra la integridad de las instituciones políticas y priorice ante todo sus propios intereses. Al respecto, el autor conocido como el “Anónimo de Jámblico”, quien al parecer habría escrito en el período de los grandes sofistas, plantea como hipótesis la existencia de un hombre de acero (adamántinos anér) para demostrar que nadie, por más extraordinario y poderoso que sea, podría vivir al margen de la ley, la justicia y la comunidad. En este libro se explora el significado ético-político de tal argumento con el propósito de reflexionar acerca del valor de las leyes y su autoridad. Mediante una metodología que entrecruza el análisis filológico y un enfoque iusfilosófico, se busca acentuar la riqueza del texto del Anónimo para comprender el proceso de desarrollo de la supremacía del derecho en la historia de la democracia ateniense.

Dream interpretation was a prominent feature of the intellectual and imaginative world of late antiquity, for martyrs and magicians, philosophers and theologians, polytheists and monotheists alike. Finding it difficult to account for the prevalence of dream-divination, modern scholarship has often condemned it as a cultural weakness, a mass lapse into mere superstition. In this book, Patricia Cox Miller draws on pagan, Jewish, and Christian sources and modern semiotic theory to demonstrate the integral importance of dreams in late-antique thought and life. She argues that Graeco-Roman dream literature functioned as a language of signs that formed a personal and cultural pattern of imagination and gave tangible substance to ideas such as time, cosmic history, and the self. Miller first discusses late-antique theories of dreaming, with emphasis on theological, philosophical, and hermeneutical methods of deciphering dreams as well as the practical uses of dreams, especially in magic and the cult of Asclepius. She then considers the cases of six Graeco-Roman dreamers: Hermas, Perpetua, Aelius Aristides, Jerome, Gregory of Nyssa, and Gregory of Nazianus. Her detailed readings illuminate the ways in which dreams provided solutions to ethical and religious problems, allowed for the reconfiguration of gender and identity, provided occasions for the articulation of ethical ideas, and altogether served as a means of making sense and order of the world.
