Die "Ereignisse nach Homer", die Quintus Smyrnaeus wohl im 3. Jh. n.Chr. in seinem griechischen Epos Posthomerica beschreibt, sind ein Versuch, die Lücke zwischen Ilias und Odyssee zu schließen und die bis dahin verstreut überlieferten Berichte über den Kampf um Troja erzählerisch zu vereinen. Obschon das Epos in künstlerischer und populärer Rezeption (wie in Gustav Schwabs Schönsten Sagen des klassischen Altertums) breit gewirkt hat, fand eine wissenschaftliche Auseinandersetzung mit den Posthomerica bislang nur am Rande statt. Der vorliegende Sammelband arbeitet unter Berücksichtigung moderner Forschungsansätze intertextuelle Dialoge, narratologische Eigenheiten und stilistische wie inhaltliche Besonderheiten heraus. Die 16 Beiträge geben einen Einblick in werkimmanente Aspekte (Spannungsaufbau, Poetologie, Erzähltechnik) und untersuchen den Einfluss des literarischen Umfelds und insbesondere der Zweiten Sophistik auf Quintus anhand von werkübergreifenden, intertextuellen Fragestellungen und Fragen der Gattungsgeschichte: Wie lässt sich Quintus innerhalb der epischen Tradition einordnen, welchen Einfluss hat sein Werk auf spätere Epen der Kaiserzeit, wie erfolgreich ist sein Programm des Brückenschlags zwischen Ilias und Odyssee letztlich gewesen?

Athens, 403 B.C.E. The bloody oligarchic dictatorship of the Thirty is over, and the democrats have returned to the city victorious. Renouncing vengeance, in an act of willful amnesia, citizens call for - if not invent - amnesty. They agree to forget the unforgettable, the "past misfortunes," of civil strife or stasis. More precisely, what they agree to deny is that stasis - simultaneously partisanship, faction, and sedition - is at the heart of their politics. Continuing a criticism of Athenian ideology begun in her study The Invention of Athens, Nicole Loraux argues that this crucial moment of Athenian political history must be interpreted as constitutive of politics and political life and not as a threat to it.

"The legends of Aristomenes, hero of the Messenian resistance to Sparta, were designed to excite, gratify and amuse. Yet they remain almost unknown even to specialist ancient historians. This book, the first monograph to be devoted to Aristomenes, redirects attention to his adventures, which at times resemble those of King Arthur, Robin Hood and even Sinbad the Sailor." "The book goes beyond the question of the historicity of Aristomenes, and examines the meaning and symbolism of the stories in their own right. The study will be welcomed by those with an interest in the history of Sparta, in Pausanias (our principal source for the tales), and in Greek traditional narrative."--Jacket.

One of the oldest extant works of Western literature, the Iliad is a timeless epic poem of great warriors trapped between their own heroic pride and the arbitrary, often vicious decisions of fate and the gods. Renowned scholar and acclaimed translator Peter Green captures the Iliad in all its surging thunder for a new generation of readers. Featuring an enticingly personal introduction, a detailed synopsis of each book, a wide-ranging glossary, and explanatory notes for the few puzzling in-text items, the book also includes a select bibliography for those who want to learn more about Homer and

"Most classical authors and modern historians depict the ancient Greek world as essentially stable and even static, once the so-called colonization movement came to an end. But Robert Garland argues that the Greeks were highly mobile, that their movement was essential to the survival, success, and sheer sustainability of their society, and that this wandering became a defining characteristic of their culture. Addressing a neglected but essential subject, Wandering Greeks focuses on the diaspora of tens of thousands of people between about 700 and 325 BCE, demonstrating the degree to which Greeks were liable to be forced to leave their homes due to political upheaval, oppression, poverty, warfare, or simply a desire to better themselves. Attempting to enter into the mind-set of these wanderers, the book provides an insightful and sympathetic account of what it meant for ancient Greeks to part from everyone and everything they held dear, to start a new life elsewhere--or even to become homeless, living on the open road or on the high seas with no end to their journey in sight. Each chapter identifies a specific kind of "wanderer, " including the overseas settler, the deportee, the evacuee, the asylum-seeker, the fugitive, the economic migrant, and the itinerant, and the book also addresses repatriation and the idea of the "portable polis." The result is a vivid and unique portrait of ancient Greece as a culture of displaced persons"--
