Beschreibung:
George Alexander Gazis is an Assistant Professor in Greek Literature at the Department of Classics and Ancient History, Durham University. He is the author of Homer and the poetics of Hades (OUP 2018).
This volume represents the first to examine the influences, intersections, and developments of understandings of death and the afterlife between poetic, religious, and philosophical traditions in ancient Greece in one resource. The papers in it demonstrate the full richness, complexity, and flexibility of these ideas in the ancient Greek world, illuminating the free exchange of ideas concerning eschatological matters.
