Memory, Space and Mindscapes in Ancient Greece: Mnemosyne, Supplements, cartea 500

Giorgia Proietti, Jeremy McInerney
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 18 dec 2025
Building on different types of evidence, and spanning from Archaic to Roman times, the contributors to this volume address the complex relationship of memory and space in a variety of instances and methodological approaches. As a whole, the volume emphasizes how the Greeks deployed a strong sense of place and locality, especially the epichoric element, in communion with the stuff of memory—stories, myths, and narratives—to shape communal identities. This is far more than a matter of inventing traditions and rather takes us to the heart of how the Greeks experienced their worlds. From Pindar to Actium, for the Greeks the world was experienced as a series of mnemotopes.
