Near-infrared focus-stacking photogrammetry for surface morphology analysis and text recovery in Herculaneum papyri
Greek papyri are an important source of information about materials and manufacture of ancient bookrolls, and the texts they transmit contribute to our knowledge of classical literature and history. Nevertheless, access to their contents is not always effortless, such as in the case of carbonised Herculaneum papyri, where the black charred substrate is morphologically complex and the text on it is indistinguishable. Herculaneum papyri– the only c…
Philosophical vs. Biographical
Greek works On Ways of Life have been seen to consist in either collections of biographies or proper philosophical treatises. Recently, a unitary reading of this literary phenomenon has been advanced, but some fundamental evidence has escaped attention. This evidence, along with what remains of Epicurus and Chrysippus’ Peri biōn , suggests that in antiquity this label actually encompassed two essentially different genres: a mostly biographical on…
A New End-title in the Herculaneum Papyri and the First Case of a Preserved subscriptio in One of the Books Assigned to Philodemus’ Systematic Arrangement of the Philosophers (PHerc. 327)
Philodemus’ Systematic Arrangement of the Philosophers is witnessed only once in Greek literature (D.L. 10.3). This notwithstanding, several Herculaneum papyri have been assigned to it on various grounds. However, these assignments rest on varying degrees of probability, not least because the name of the author and the title of the work do not survive in any of these books. PHerc . 327, which hands down the so-called [ History of the Eleatic and …
Space in Hellenistic Philosophy
The volume discusses the notion of space by focusing on the most representative exponents of the Hellenistic schools and explores the role played by spatial concepts in both coeval and later authors who, without specifically thematising these concepts, made use of them in a theoretically original way. Renowned scholars investigate the philosophical significance and bring to light the problematical character of the ancient conceptions of space
The Stoic Concept of Proneness to Emotion and Vice
According to an old view of Ian G. Kidd based on some passages from Galen's treatise 'On the Doctrines of Hippocrates and Plato', the Stoic concept of the soul's proneness to emotion and vice was formulated for the first time by Posidonius and became through Cicero a communis opinio in Roman Stoicism from the 1st century BC. Against this account the present contribution confirms, thanks to a new reading of a fundamental Galenic passage, that this…
