Klasika po antice Série

Tato série prozkoumává složitý vztah mezi klasickou tradicí a antickým světem, který ji inspiroval. Zkoumá, jak byly literární, historické a kulturní dědictví starověkého Řecka a Říma přebírány a interpretovány napříč staletími, od středověku po současnost. Každá kniha odhaluje, jak se pozdější generace snažily přetvořit a pochopit tento odkaz, často v napětí mezi přijetím a odmítnutím. Série se také zabývá tím, jak antické instituce a myšlenky stále rezonují v dnešních debatách a jak se s tímto odkazem vyrovnávají v globalizovaném světě.

  • Feeling and Classical Philology

    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.
