Examining the profusion of ways in which the arts, culture, and
thought of Greece and Rome have been transmitted, interpreted,
adapted and used, A Companion to Classical Receptions
explores the impact of this phenomenon on both ancient and later
societies.
* Provides a comprehensive introduction and overview of classical
reception – the interpretation of classical art, culture, and
thought in later centuries, and the fastest growing area in
classics
* Brings together 34 essays by an international group of
contributors focused on ancient and modern reception concepts and
practices
* Combines close readings of key receptions with wider
contextualization and discussion
* Explores the impact of Greek and Roman culture worldwide,
including crucial new areas in Arabic literature, South African
drama, the history of photography, and contemporary ethics
