Hardback. Condition: New. 1st. The Department of Human Studies of the University of L'Aquila has been awarded as one among the "Department of Excellence" at national level (2018-2022) by the Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research. The award comes with generous funding to carry out a research project on "Arts, Languages, and Media: Translation and Transcodification". Among the aims to be achieved within the framework of the project is the establishment of the book series, Transcodification: Arts, Languages and Media, devoted to the pivotal theoretical concept of the research, namely transcodification. The rationale, and also the novelty, of the series is that of constituting a methodologically interconnected space allowing scholars from different fields in the humanities to reflect on a specific, yet inherently interdisciplinary concept through a shared framework. The main methodological and theoretical questions revolving around transcodification have been investigated in conferences, seminars, summer and winter schools through the discussion of topics ranging from the birth of Epos/epic poetry to translations studies, from contemporary theatre to the many forms of the novel, from figurative arts in the Middle Age to new media, from concepts in both philosophy and science to urban planning and design. The project involves scholars in the Department from a very diverse range of fields, including classical studies, comparative literature, linguistics, visual and performative arts, philosophy. These scholars will be both authors and editors for the series, and together with their respective academic communities will also be the expected readers of the books we are planning. The book series is managed and coordinated by the Center for Transcodification, established at the Department of Human Studies, that takes care of the selection of the proposals, the refereeing process and the delivering of completed manuscripts. The Center will continue its activities beyond the natural ending of the funded project, and it is working to secure future funding for it.…

Hardback. Condition: New. This volume deals with the submerged literature of ancient Greece; that is, all the texts produced for socially relevant events that have contributed to the configuration and articulation of ancient Greek culture as we know it. In particular, the hermeneutic tool of submerged literature may shed new light on the dynamics behind the 'emersion' or 'submersion' of certain texts during different periods. The category of submerged literature is extended here to include preserved and lost texts as well as those texts that can be reconstructed through investigation. The volume investigates the manifold speech acts that we know of through various sources and that, either from the outset or over the course of time, have been placed at the edge of diffusion, conservation and transmission. The essays contained in the volume deal with questions of hermeneutics, philology and methodology, as well as with epic cycles, lyric poetry, tragedy, comedy, satyr drama, and mime. By approaching these genres from the perspective of submerged literature, the book tries to provide a more precise contextualization of the texts within the communication system of ancient Greece. The book thus presents a new line of research and a series of studies that take a fresh look at the texts and all archaeological and iconographic sources relating to Greek culture, taking into account the results of ethnographic and anthropological research. This extensive investigation examines unique ancient Greek orality and literacy dynamics using a new hermeneutic frame that will hopefully reshape our understanding of ancient Greek culture.…

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -The book is the third and concluding part of the investigation on Submerged literature in ancient Greece and beyond.The book expands the inquiry to a comparative perspective, in order to test the validity and usefulness of the hermeneutical approach in other fields and cultures. The comparative case studies deal with gnostic text, Qumran texts, the Hebrew Bible, Early Christianity, Cuneiform Texts, Arabic-Islamic literature, ancient Rome, Medieval China, and contemporary southern Italy. The volume tackles themes and questions relating to author and authorship, cultural translation and transmission, the interaction between orality and literacy, myth and folktale. A particular emphasis is given to anthropological themes and methods. In this vein, the book further explores dynamics of emergence and submersion in ancient Greece, including cultural trends promoted respectively by Sparta and Athens.The volume provides the reader with a wide range of tools and methodological suggestions to reconstruct literary phenomena and cultural processes in a given historical epoch and context, as well as offering new insights for both classical and comparative studies. 286 pp. Englisch.…
