Just Deserts in the Ancient Pagan Afterlife
The dominant feature of the Greco-Roman afterlife was the idea that justice would be served after death. This chapter outlines the manifestations of that idea of justice in a range of forms from the positive vision of eternal existence in the Elysian Fields to the negative images of criminals suffering tortures without end or relief. Many of the essential concepts of pagan eschatological thought emerged in philosophical and literary texts written…
Virgil and his Translators
This is the only volume of its kind that addresses the long and complicated history of translations of Virgil, whose poems were at the centre of the educational curriculum and the wider culture of Europe until the nineteenth century. While this collection of chapters covers numerous European traditions (English, French, German, Greek, Irish, Italian, Norwegian, Spanish), the volume also extends its focus beyond European translations to translatio…
The Aeneid and ‘Les Belles Lettres’
This chapter walks us backwards on the path of French prose translations of Virgil, from Paul Veyne to Jacques Perret. While Clément-Tarantino emphasizes that Veyne’s fluid and vivacious translation rekindled the interest of the French-reading public in Virgil, she also analyses the principles behind Perret’s translation of the Aeneid in the context of his book Latin et culture . In this work, which elaborates on the ?art of translation?, Perret …

The Cambridge Companion to Seneca
The Roman statesman, philosopher and playwright Lucius Annaeus Seneca dramatically influenced the progression of Western thought. His works have had an unparalleled impact on the development of ethical theory, shaping a code of behavior for dealing with tyranny in his own age that endures today. This Companion thoroughly examines the complete Senecan corpus, with special emphasis on the aspects of his writings that have challenged interpretation.…
La réception des poètes latins dans la littérature européenne
Virgile, mosaïque Bardo conservée au musée de Tunis © DR La signification du choix de la forme métrique dans les traductions européennes de L’Énéide L’une des questions primordiales auxquelles doit faire face quiconque veut relever le défi de (re)traduire l’Énéide, c’est le choix de la forme métrique à utiliser dans la langue-cible : le traducteur doit-il, ou ne doit-il pas, chercher une forme qui reproduise l’hexamètre dactylique de Virgile ? J’…
Haunted by Horror
Ghosts are one of the most salient features of Seneca's tragedies, along with horrible acts of revenge, cruel, megalomaniacal tyrant figures. All these elements exert significant influence on Renaissance tragedy. Given the constraints of space and the abundance of fine scholarship on the influence and reception of Senecan tragedy, the chapter focuses primarily on vengeful ghosts and megalomaniacal tyrants. It starts with the plays of the Senecan …

Seneca
Ancient Anger
Ancient Rome in the Russian Silver Age
Preparing this review has been rewarding and frustrating. I have learned much of value for my current project; I have also learned that different traditions of criticism vary sharply. I write from die perspective of another discipline. I am a classicist - an expert on Latin poetry and prose of the early Principate (roughly the first 120 years CE) - but undertook this review because I am studying die reception of Latin poets, such as Virgil, in Ru…

Quasi Homo
Quasi Homo: Distortion and Contortion in Seneca’s Apocolocyntosis Susanna Morton Braund and Paula James The subject of our paper is one particular grotesque body—that of the emperor Claudius as depicted in Seneca’s Apocolocyntosis. In this short prose satire on the (attempted) deification of Claudius, written in 54 c.e. shortly after Nero’s accession, Seneca presents Claudius as a distorted and contorted specimen—both a monstrous beast and a ridi…
A passion unconsoled? Grief and anger in Juvenal Satire 13
Anger is the passion which predominates in Juvenal's Satires. Indignatio is the driving force in the first two books, Satires 1–6. The later Satires present a rejection of indignatio which is initiated obliquely in Satire 9, the last poem in Book III, and made explicit briefly for the first time at the close of Satire 10, the opening poem of Book iv. Satire 13, the programme poem to Juvenal's fifth book, confronts the matter head-on, with an unsy…
The Passions in Roman Thought and Literature
Essays by an international team of scholars in Latin literature and ancient philosophy explore the understanding of emotions (or 'passions') in Roman thought and literature. Building on work on Hellenistic theories of emotion and on philosophy as therapy, they look closely at the interface between ancient philosophy (especially Stoic and Epicurean), rhetorical theory, conventional Roman thinking and literary portrayal. There are searching studies…
Virgil and the cosmos
Virgil's cosmos comprises gods and humans and nature. These are huge topics. In this chapter I shall analyse the complex relationships between these elements by taking a broad view of Virgil's religious and philosophical ideas.
