Abstract

Ancient graffiti - hundreds of thousands of informal, ephemeral texts spanning millennia - offer a patchwork of fragmentary conversations in a variety of languages spread across the Mediterranean world. Cut, painted, inked or traced in charcoal, the surviving graffiti present a layer of lived experience in the ancient world unavailable from other sources. Graffiti in Antiquity reveals how and why the inhabitants of Greece and Rome - men and women and free and enslaved - formulated written and visual messages about themselves and the world around them as graffiti.

Abstract

Gaius Iulius Solinus ist der Autor eines spätantiken Werkes, das unter dem Titel ›Collectanea rerum mirabilium‹ bekannt ist und neben geographischem Wissen Merkwürdigkeiten und mancherlei Kuriositäten überliefert. Solinus bietet umfangreiche Informationen über die römische Frühgeschichte, über den Kalender und seine Reformen und erklärt schließlich die Welt und ihre Wunder in der Form einer fiktiven Reisebeschreibung. Das Werk umfasst die gesamte antike Welt - von Italien und Griechenland über Germanien, Gallien und Britannien, Kleinasien und Afrika bis zum fernen Indien und China. Seit dem späten 19. Jahrhundert sah man in Solinus lediglich einen Kompilator der Merkwürdigkeiten und seltsamen Namen, aber die durchaus liebenswürdige Kritik ändert nichts am gewaltigen Einfluss des spätantiken Werkes, das ein Jahrtausend lang antikes Wissen transportierte. Kai Brodersen legt in diesem zweisprachigen Band erstmals eine deutsche Übersetzung des Werkes vor.

Abstract

Na mitologia grega, Mnemósine é a personificação da Memória. Filha de Úrano e de Gaia, i.e. do Céu e da Terra, Mnemósine pertence ao grupo das chamadas Titânides, tendo sido igualmente uma das figuras femininas a quem Zeus se uniu sexualmente e de quem nasceram as nove Musas. Sofia é a personificação da Sabedoria, não tendo, porém, uma presença tão marcante no corpus mitológico clássico como a que se reconhece a Mnemósine.

Abstract

The catalogue examines the interactions between Greek and Egyptian cultures during the nearly three hundred year period when Egypt was under Greek rule. It reveals how Egypt's Ptolemaic rulers used longstanding cultural traditions as a means of asserting power and promoting loyalty among the conquered population. It also looks at the intense familial intrigue and jockeying for position that characterized the Ptolemies.
