Klasika po antike

Táto séria skúma zložitý vzťah medzi klasickou tradíciou a antickým svetom, ktorý ju inšpiroval. Skúma, ako boli literárne, historické a kultúrne dedičstvo starovekého Grécka a Ríma preberané a interpretované naprieč stáročiami, od stredoveku po súčasnosť. Každá kniha odhaľuje, ako sa neskoršie generácie snažili pretvoriť a pochopiť tento odkaz, často v napätí medzi prijatím a odmietnutím. Séria sa tiež zaoberá tým, ako antické inštitúcie a myšlienky stále rezonujú v dnešných debatách a ako sa s týmto odkazom vyrovnávajú v globalizovanom svete.

    This book explores the surprising versatility of Homer's epics of wandering and homecoming for the radical formal experiments and changing sociopolitical agendas of modernist writers responding to war, tyranny, censorship, and empire. Of interest to students and researchers interested in classical receptions, modernism, twentieth-century literature, and comparative literature.

    Modernism and Homer
  • Nineteenth-century German classical philology underpins many structures of the modern humanities. This book shows how a language of love and a longing for closeness with a personified antiquity has lastingly shaped modern professional reading habits, notions of biography, and the self-image of scholars and teachers.

    Feeling and Classical Philology
  • Argues that immigration politics is a central - but overlooked - object of inquiry in the democratic thought of classical Athens. Thinkers criticized democracy's strategic investments in nativism, the shifting boundaries of citizenship, and the precarious membership that a blood-based order effects for those eligible and ineligible to claim it.
