Classici dopo l'Antichità Serie

Questa serie approfondisce l'intricato rapporto tra le tradizioni classiche e il mondo antico che le ha ispirate. Esamina come le eredità letterarie, storiche e culturali dell'antica Grecia e Roma siano state adottate e reinterpretate nel corso dei secoli, dal periodo medievale ai giorni nostri. Ogni volume svela come le epoche successive abbiano lottato per reinventare e comprendere questa eredità, spesso divise tra accettazione e rifiuto. La collana esplora anche la perdurante rilevanza delle istituzioni e delle idee antiche nel discorso contemporaneo e le loro sfide nella nostra era globalizzata.

    Nineteenth-century German classical philology underpins many structures of the modern humanities.
