    These ardent, even obsessed, poems about erotic passion are among the brightest jewels in the crown of Latin literature. Written by Propertius, Rome's greatest poet of love, who was born around 50 b.c., a contemporary of Ovid, these elegies tell of Propertius' tormented relationship with a woman he calls "Cynthia." Their connection was sometimes blissful, more often agonizing, but as the poet came to recognize, it went beyond pride or shame to become the defining event of his life. Whether or not it was Propertius' explicit intention, these elegies extend our ideas of desire, and of the human condition itself

    Epen sind die ältesten verschriftlichten Großtexte vieler Sprachen. Sie erheben den Anspruch, grundlegende Ereignisse darzustellen und wollen ihrer Version durch formale Gestaltung Geltung verschaffen. Dieser Band gibt einen Überblick über die griechischen und lateinischen Epen von Homer bis in die Spätantike. Vor allem aber fragt er: Wie wurden sie zu Gehör gebracht? Wer wollte sie lesen oder hören? Und wie veränderte das die Texte? Die Professionalisierung solcher Großwerke führte auch zu Konkurrenz, Überbietung, aber auch Parodie oder Verdichtung der Texte. Erstmals wird in diesem Buch ein breiter Überblick konsequent aus einer solchen Perspektive gegeben. Jörg Rüpke war von 1995 bis 1999 Professor für Klassische Philologie an der Universität Potsdam und von 1999 bis 2008 Professor für Vergleichende Religionswissenschaft an der Universität Erfurt. Seit 2008 ist er Fellow für Religionswissenschaft am Max-Weber-Kolleg in Erfurt. Sofia Bianchi Mancini studierte Klassische Philologie an der University of Wales Trinity St. David und promovierte 2021 an der Universität Erfurt. Seit 2021 ist sie Postdoc im SFB TRR 294-Teilprojekt A01 »Göttliches Eigentum: Spätantike und mittelalterliche Lösungen« am Max-Weber-Kolleg in Erfurt. Epics are the oldest written long texts in many languages. They claim to recount fundamental events and seek to give validity to their version through formal composition. This volume provides an overview of Greek and Latin epic poetry from Homer to Late Antiquity. But above all it asks: How were they made audible? Who wanted to read or listen to them? And how did this change the texts? The professionalisation of such great works also led to competition, outbidding, but also to parody or condensation of the texts. This book is the first to provide a broad and coherent overview from such a perspective.

    We tend to suppose that the ancient Greeks had primitive ideas of the self, of responsibility, freedom, and shame, and that now humanity has advanced from these to a more refined moral consciousness. Bernard Williams's original and radical book questions this picture of Western history. While we are in many ways different from the Greeks, Williams claims that the differences are not to be traced to a shift in these basic conceptions of ethical life. We are more like the ancients than we are prepared to acknowledge, and only when this is understood can we properly grasp our most important differences from them, such as our rejection of slavery. The author is a philosopher, but much of his book is directed to writers such as Homer and the tragedians, whom he discusses as poets and not just as materials for philosophy. At the center of his study is the question of how we can understand Greek tragedy at all, when its world is so far from ours. Williams explains how it is that when the ancients speak, they do not merely tell us about themselves, but about ourselves. In a new foreword A.A. Long explores the impact of this volume in the context of Williams's stunning career

    Horace's Odes have a surface translucency that belies their rhetorical sophistication. Gregson Davis brings together recent trends in the study of Augustan poetry and critical theory and deftly applies them to individual poems. Exploring four rhetorical strategies-what he calls modes of assimilation, authentication, consolation, and praise and dispraise-Davis produces enlightening, new interpretations of this classic work. Polyhymnia, named after one of the Muses invoked in Horace's opening poem, revises the common image of Horace as a complacent, uncomplicated, and basically superficial singer. Focusing on the artistic persona-the lyric "self" that is constituted in the text-Davis explores how the lyric speaker constructs subtle "arguments" whose building-blocks are topoi, recurrent motifs, and generic conventions. By examining the substructure of lyric argument in groupings of poems sharing similar strategies, the author discloses the major principles that inform Horatian lyric composition
