Beschreibung:
Fiona Hobden is a Senior Lecturer in Greek Culture at the University of Liverpool, where she teaches courses on various aspects of ancient Greek cultural history, including politics, gender and religion. Her current research focuses primarily on the symposion, but she is also interested in representations of the past and the present in Classical Athens, in ancient and modern responses to the Athenian cityscape and in history represented on television.
This book provides insights into the symposion's importance in Greek culture by tracing the discursive power of its representations.
Introduction: talking about the symposion; 1. Metasympotics; 2. Ethnopoieia and ¿thopoieia; 3. Politics in performance; 4. Politics in action; 5. Symposion and Symposium; Conclusion: the rhetorics of the symposion.
