Book Description
The texts, images and events of the ancient world have been used both as sources of authority and exploitation in politics, culture and society and as icons of resistance and contest. This book introduces the main concepts used in the growing field of reception studies through chapters on reception within antiquity and case studies of more recent receptions from Africa, the Caribbean, Europe and the USA. It will be of use to students and teachers of classical subjects and of literature, drama, film and comparative cultural studies.
