In memoriam Jim 'James' Keltie Aitken (1968–2023) – a pioneer in Septuagint Studies
Von »falschen Hunden« und wahren Mythen: Kaiser Julian, An die Adresse des Kynikers Herakleios
The invective Against Heraclius the Cynic offers remarkable insights into Julians involvement in the philosophical and religious debates of his times and his own self-image. A new bilingual edition and six essays elucidate the text within the context of the history, philosophy, and religious situation of its times.
Cityscaping: Constructing and Modelling Images of the City
The term ‘cityscaping’ is here introduced to characterise the creative process through which the image of the city is created and represented in various media – text, film and artefacts.

This study considers important contemporary themes such as the construction of identity, ideal rule or the correct interpretation of current rea…
Eine Aufforderung zum Tyrannenmord
Poetische Argumentation: Die Funktion der Gnomik in den Epinikien des Bakchylides
The Gnomai in the Epinician Odes and Dithyrambs of Bacchylides have hitherto been regarded as an allegedly conventional accompaniment and thus attracted little attention in research. Following the development of a genre model for the epinicion, individual interpretations demonstrate the central significance of the Gnomai in constituting the sense of the Epinicion. As the gnome essentially represents ethical and moral values to a large audience, a…
