Classics@, edited past times Casey Dué too Mary Ebbott, nether the full general editorship of Gregory Nagy, is designed to convey contemporary classical scholarship to a broad audience on the World Wide Web. Each number volition live dedicated to its ain topic, oftentimes with invitee editors, for an in-depth exploration of of import electrical current problems inwards the plain of Classics. We promise that Classics@ volition appeal non alone to professional person classicists, but also to the intellectually curious who are willing to acquire inwards the conversation inwards our discipline. We promise that they regain that classical scholarship engages issues of keen significance to a broad attain of cultural too scholarly concerns too does so inwards a rigorous too challenging way. Each number of Classics@ is meant to live non static but dynamic, continuing to evolve with interaction from its readers every bit participants. New issues volition appear when the editors retrieve at that topographic point is adept cloth to offer. Often it volition emphasize function done inwards too through the Center for Hellenic Studies, but it volition also telephone telephone attending to fresh too interesting function presented elsewhere on the web. It stresses the importance of research-in-progress, encouraging collegial combat (while discouraging polemics for the sake of polemics) every bit good every bit the timely sharing of of import novel information. Issue 17 Issue 17: Digital Literacies, 2019 (ed. Paul Dilley). This majority demonstrates the rich spread of digital literacies along a broad spectrum of teaching too inquiry practices, from classroom engagement with contemporary multimedia reception of classical themes; the usage of online resources past times citizen scientists with trivial or no classical training, every bit good every bit classicists with trivial or no familiarity with computers; complex editorial structures which drive to integrate historical patterns of textual transmission with contemporary data structures; too grooming inwards coding which adapts human strategies for identifying intelligence structures to make resources for large-scale philological function available through a basic interface. Digital literacies, every bit applied to the ancient world, involve a “big tent” of skills too strategies that are best learned through practice, whether inwards formal instructional settings or private use. [From the Introduction] This majority of Classics@ aims to explore too analyze how the introduce digital plough enables a renewed theoretical engagement with multimodal ancient literacies. Cultural transmission inwards Antiquity was primarily oral, supplemented past times images too texts. Nevertheless, Classicists cause employed the term “literacy” inwards the singular, according to its 19th-century definition: the might to read too write texts. But since the 2000s, the plural shape has gained currency, notably inwards Johnson too Parker’s collection of essays, Ancient Literacies, which explores literacy from the perspective of “text-oriented events embedded inwards particular sociocultural contexts.” Different settings, kinds, too uses of literacies emerge, oftentimes reflecting differing specializations, competencies, too social hierarchies. In the past times several decades, novel digital tools too expanding digital civilization take away keep provided additional opportunities to explore too theorize ancient literacies. The connecter betwixt digital too ancient literacies tin live elucidated past times the of New Literacy Studies, which explores literacy “in its total attain of contexts too practices, non but cognitive, but social, cultural, historical, too institutional, every bit well.” Given this broader perspective, the importance of literacy every bit it relates to digital media, including the internet, is steadily beingness recognized, fifty-fifty if no clearly defined academic sub-field devoted to it has emerged. According to the American Library Association, “Digital literacy is the might to usage data too communication technologies to find, evaluate, create, too communicate information, requiring both cognitive too technical skills. ” The articles inwards this collection explore various aspects of digital literacies every bit they relate to the report of the ancient world; indeed, nosotros usage the plural shape to signal their various modalities, next Parker too Johnson’s approach. The multiple contexts, uses, too practices of digital literacy include pedagogy inwards too beyond the undergraduate classroom (Tulley); the building, use, too evaluation of a major online scholarly resources (Bacalexi too Skarsouli); the usage of digital affordances to theorize the optimal way of presenting ancient medical sources (Reggiani); too the role of coding, too how to larn it, inwards the report of ancient languages (Burns, Hollis, too Johnson).

Issue 16 Issue 16: Seven Essays on Sappho, 2017 (ed. Paul G. Johnston). These 7 papers are the production of a graduate seminar led past times Gregory Nagy at Harvard inwards the autumn of 2016, entitled ‘Sappho too her Songmaking’. The reach of the seminar was wide-ranging, encompassing philological, linguistic, historical, anthropological, comparative, too reception-based approaches to the keen woman individual poet of antiquity. The pupil participants inwards the seminar likewise came from a variety of dissimilar backgrounds: graduates too undergraduates, classicists too not. This diverseness is reflected inwards the papers gathered inwards this collection.
Issue 15 Issue 15: H5N1 Concise Inventory of Greek Etymology, 2017 (ed. Olga Levaniouk). The goal of CIGE is to render access to etymologies that are of import for the report of Greek civilization too that are oftentimes non nevertheless referenced inwards conventional dictionaries. CIGE represents an agreement of Greek—and specially Homeric—etymology every bit purpose of the formulaic scheme of early on Greek poetry. The primary content is organized inwards the way of a dictionary: each entry appears nether a heading or lēmma that indicates the basic intelligence to live analyzed. Each entry contains a reference to a fuller analysis, if available, too identifies the writer who suggested or advocates the etymology inwards question. The editors of the private entries are identified past times name-stamp too date-stamp at the terminate of each entry. Each editor is the possessor of his or her ain entry every bit edited.
Issue 14 Issue 14: Singers too Tales inwards the 21st Century; The Legacies of Milman Parry too Albert Lord, 2016 (ed. David F. Elmer too Peter McMurray). In December, 2010, a conference was convened at Harvard to grade the fiftieth anniversary of the publication of Albert Lord’s seminal book, The Singer of Tales, too the seventy-fifth anniversary of the decease of Lord’s mentor, Milman Parry. Twenty-nine speakers from but about the solid set down presented papers intended to illustrate the wide-ranging touching on of the function of Parry too Lord. H5N1 collection of these papers volition shortly appear every bit a printed majority published past times the Milman Parry Collection of Oral Literature. To facilitate the dissemination of these studies, nosotros introduce hither preliminary versions of a number of the contributions.
Issue 13 Issue 13: Greek Poetry too Sport, 2015 (ed. Thomas Scanlon). Many studies on Pindar, Homer, too other poets take away keep discussed the specific uses of sport inwards each context, too studies on Greek sport take away keep acknowledged the ways inwards which agonistic values too practices take away keep been reflected inwards poetic literature, but at that topographic point has been no unmarried collection of studies devoted specifically to the intersection of Greek verse too sport. This majority includes a attain of contributions that correspond a diverseness of genres, periods, too approaches, which cutting across strict poetic genres, occasionally fifty-fifty mixing verse too prose inwards their approach. Poetry's involvement inwards sport survived the rising too autumn of genres similar epinikia too satyr plays, too the rising too autumn of myriad political too cultural changes inwards the Greek Mediterranean. We tin alone speculate on the many too complex reasons for the steal of verse on sport too vice-versa, but they no uncertainty include Homeric intertextuality, the universal appeal of the topic to the elite too the dêmos, the universal presence of gymnasia too agonistic festivals (both blending verse too sport), too the agonistic resonances betwixt verse too sport.
Issue 12 Issue 12: Comparative Approaches to Republic of Republic of India too Greece, 2015 (ed. Douglas Frame). This number contains papers past times 4 scholars comparison specific literary too cultural traditions inwards Republic of Republic of India too Greece. The papers served every bit the solid set down of give-and-take at an trial inwards Feb 2015 organized past times the Center for Hellenic Studies inwards association with the Embassy of India. The give-and-take that took house alongside the scholars too guests on that occasion, which began with summaries of the 4 papers, is included every bit it was recorded. This is intended to live a starting dot for farther give-and-take of the topics presented too of other topics suggested past times the nature too spirit of the event.
Issue 11 Issue 11: The Rhetoric of Abuse inwards Greek Literature, 2013 (ed. Håkan Tell). This majority grew out of the ask for a venue inwards which to engage collaboratively on the topic of abuse. Abuse has of course of report been widely studied, too inwards the terminal few years at that topographic point has been a renewed involvement inwards abuse every bit a broader cultural too literary phenomenon, but at that topographic point are reasonable restrictions every bit to how it has been addressed. One destination of this majority is to initiate a scholarly give-and-take that volition allow greater heterogeneity inwards the cloth covered too inwards the theoretical models brought to comport on that material. Another is to encourage experimentation too collaborative telephone substitution alongside scholars working inwards seemingly unconnected fields. Most importantly, perhaps, nosotros would similar to foster a deeper agreement of the role of abuse inwards all of Greek literature, across genres too fourth dimension periods, through the sort of cumulative noesis that comes from collaborative function inwards dissimilar fields.
Issue 10 Issue 10: Historical Poetics inwards Nineteenth too Twentieth Century Greece: Essays inwards Honor of Lily Macrakis, 2012 (ed. Stamatia Dova). History needs fine art to give it form; fine art needs history to give it resonance. This human relationship of history too fine art is the theme of the essays past times distinguished international scholars collected inwards this volume. Its publication celebrates the career too function of Professor Lily Macrakis. She is an eminent chronicler of modern Greek history whose seminal work, Venizelos: H5N1 Study inwards Cretan Leadership, remains essential to an agreement of the most influential Greek leader of the 20th century. Among her other accomplishments, Professor Macrakis was president of The Modern Greek Studies Association from 1977 to 1979 too has been an influential figure inwards the scheme since its inception. Equally meaning has been her role every bit a devoted instructor of Greek history too civilization to multitudes of students. Professor Macrakis therefore genuinely embodies the spirit too significance of the articles presented inwards this Festschrift so fittingly dedicated to her.
Issue 9 Issue 9: Defense Mechanisms inwards Interdisciplinary Approaches to Classical Studies too Beyond, 2011 (ed. Carol Gilligan, Leonard Muellner, too Gregory Nagy). Nowadays people utter of “defense mechanisms” every bit both negative too positive forms of behavior: examples of negative forms are denial, repression, acting out, projection, rationalization, intellectualization, spell ane of the few positive forms is assertion, a way of responding that takes the middle solid set down betwixt aggressive too passive. In the spirit of this positive shape of assertion too inwards both technical too non-technical senses of the aspect “defense mechanisms,” the introduce number of Classics@ has been given its title. The aim is to issue online inquiry papers too essays inwards Classics too inwards other disciplines, related or unrelated, that explore strategies where the primary purpose is to defend assertively rather than attack. The justification is straightforward: discoveries too uncovering procedures inwards inquiry require too deserve a reasoned defense.
Issue 8 Issue 8: H5N1 Homer commentary inwards progress, 2011 (ed. Douglas Frame, Leonard Muellner, too Gregory Nagy). This commentary applies a special methodology of linguistics that stems primarily from the inquiry of Antoine Meillet too his teacher, Ferdinand de Saussure, to the formulaic scheme of Homeric verse based squarely on the cumulative inquiry of Milman Parry too his student, Albert Lord. The methodology of this research, every bit inherited past times Parry, combines a rigorous report of Indo-European linguistics with ii complementary perspectives on linguistic communication every bit a system—perspectives that Saussure described every bit synchronic too diachronic. Our linguistic approach inwards analyzing both synchronically too diachronically the formulaic scheme of Homeric verse provides an empirical foundation for the discoveries too uncovering procedures that nosotros get together too organize inwards our Homer commentary.
Issue 7 Issue 7: Les femmes, le féminin et le politique après Nicole Loraux, Colloque de Paris (INHA), novembre 2007, 2011 (ed. Nathalie Ernoult too Violaine Sebillotte Cuchet) is the trial of a conference held inwards Paris (INHA, 15–17 Nov 2007) which was co-organized past times the Centre Louis Gernet (CNRS-EHESS), the Équipe Phéacie (Université Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne too Université Denis-Diderot Paris VII) too the Réseau National Interuniversitaire sur le Genre (RING, Paris). The aim of the conference was to explore Nicole Loraux’s legacy concerning the feminine too the polis both inwards Hellenic Studies too inwards feminist scholarship.
Issue 6 Issue 6: Reflecting on the Greek Epic Cycle, 2010 (ed. Efimia D. Karakantza) is the trial of a conference held inwards Ancient Olympia on 9–10 July 2010, which was co-organized past times the Center for Hellenic Studies (Harvard University) too the Centre for the Study of Myth too Religion inwards Greek too Roman Antiquity (University of Patras). The destination of the conference was to explore problems concerning the surviving fragments of the Greek Epic Cycle that take away keep heretofore been neglected. Guest Editor: Efimia D. Karakantza.
Issue 5 Issue 5: Proceedings of the Derveni Papyrus Conference, 2009 (ed. Ioanna Papadopoulou too Leonard Muellner) reflects a three-day symposium on the Derveni Papyrus hosted past times the Center for Hellenic Studies inwards July, 2008, on the occasion of the recent publication of the edition past times Theokritos Kouremenos, George M. Parássoglou, too Kyriakos Tsantsanoglou (Florence, Olschki, 2006; the text of the papyrus from that edition is available on this website here). The symposium was an chance to gather scholars who inwards the course of report of the past times decades take away keep been working on this text to address a gear upwards of issues relating to the edition too integration of the papyrus, its translation, too its interpretation.
Issue 4 Issue 4: The New Sappho on Old Age: Textual too Philosophical Issues, 2007 (ed. Ellen Greene too Marilyn Skinner) is the online edition of a impress majority published past times the Center for Hellenic Studies inwards 2009 (available through Harvard University Press, here). This majority is the cause collection of essays inwards English linguistic communication devoted to give-and-take of the newly-recovered Sappho verse form too ii other incomplete texts on the same papyri. Containing xi novel essays past times leading scholars, it addresses a broad attain of textual too philological issues connected with the find. Using dissimilar approaches, the contributions demonstrate how the "New Sappho" tin live appreciated every bit a gracefully spare poetic contestation regarding the painful inevitability of decease too aging.
Issue 3 Issue 3: The Homerizon: Conceptual Interrogations inwards Homeric Studies, 2005 (ed. Richard Armstrong too Casey Dué) is the trial of a colloquium held at the Center. The colloquium had every bit its goals the serious interrogation of cherished assumptions most Homeric “culture” too “texuality”; too the exploration of the wider cultural significance of the perennial Homeric Question(s).
Issue 2 Issue 2: Ancient Mediterranean Cultural Informatics, 2004 (ed. Christopher Blackwell too Ross Scaife). The instant number of Classics@ is the cause edition of an ongoing projection of publication aimed at documenting this emerging sub-discipline of our field, the scholarship of creating, analyzing, too disseminating humanist learning electronically. This number features articles describing these projects too others similar them — novel function of high character that is expanding the depth too breadth of our field. It also looks dorsum at the history of this sub-discipline, too forwards toward emerging standards, tools, too potentials.
Issue 1 Issue 1: New Epigrams Attributed to Posidippus of Pella, 2003 (ed. Benjamin Acosta-Hughes, Elizabeth Kosmetatou, Martine Cuypers, too Francesca Angiò). The focus of this cause number of Classics@ is the novel Posidippus papyrus of some 112 epigrams, cause published inwards 2001 every bit Posidippo di Pella: Epigrammi (P. Mil. Vogl. VIII 309), Papiri dell' Univeristà degli Studi di Milano - VIII, past times LED - Edizioni Univeritarie di Lettere Economia Diritto (ed. Guido Bastianini too Claudio Gallazzi, with Colin Austin). The invitee editors take away keep constructed an in-progress working document of the Posidippus text based ultimately on this editio princeps. From the cumulative bear witness of ongoing restorations, it becomes e'er to a greater extent than evident that the existent challenge inwards this instance is non to distinguish betwixt amend too worse poetry, corresponding to the existent too the would-be Posidippus, but betwixt amend too worse restorations. The amend the restorations, the to a greater extent than ane tin run into the consistency of character inwards the poetry. Without the ongoing re-examination of the text past times way of electronic documentation, the scholarly verdict on the value of the Posidippus papyrus may harden likewise early on into gear upwards views that inhibit the sort of rethinking needed every bit of import novel bear witness too interpretations move on to live brought to light.
