Intertextuality and Transient Meaning in Roman Texts and Objects
This volume is an exploration into the many layers of meaning in Roman texts and images. In sixteen contributions, scholars from the fields of Classics and Archaeology bring to bear the methodologies of their respective disciplines and engage in an transdisciplinary endeavour to discover the manifold ways in which texts and images transfer earlier manifestations of their respective subject to new contexts and thereby create new meaning.
The authors use and develop inherited concepts of intertextuality, paratextuality, reframing, and visual studies to lay bare mechanisms of perception and creativity. Taking the textual as well as the visual world into account, the volume reaches beyond the traditional boundaries of academic disciplines.
[This volume is the first in the “Created World” series, which will be published by various publishers.]
