Universitätsverlag Winter, Heidelberg, 2016. 432p. Hardbound. Originally delivered at a bi-coastal conference on Late Latin poetry held in 2011 at Rice University and at Brown University, these essays explore some of the defining traits of the Late Latin poetic tradition, offering a sense of how Late Latin poetry was both conservative and innovative: its authors were grounded in the past, yet willing to take established models in new directions and to produce fresh forms in a contemporary literary milieu. More than this, these essays present fresh interpretive perspectives that accept the differences between Late Latin poets and their classical predecessors and develop new critical approaches that respond to those differences. In the process, they arrive at a novel understanding of a large group of Late Latin poets and their texts and suggest some of the ways in which readers can profitably engage the new forms, content, and concerns that mark the Latin poetry of Late Antiquity.

This volume covers such pivotal events as the fall of Rome, the rise of Christianity, the origins of Islam, & the early formation of Byzantium and the European Middle Ages. These events are set n the context of widespread literary, artistic, cultural, & religious change during the period. The geographical scope of this handbook is unparalleled among comparable surveys of Late Antiquity; Arabia, Egypt, Central Asia, & the Balkans all receive dedicated treatments, while the scope extends to the western kingdoms & North Africa in the West. Furthermore, from economic theory & slavery to Greek & Latin poetry, Syriac & Coptic literature, philosophy, sites of religious devotion, & many others, this handbook covers a wide range of topics that will appeal to scholars from a diverse array of disciplines. "The Oxford Handbook of Late Antiquity" engages the perennially valuable questions about the end of the ancient world & the beginning of the medieval, while providing a much needed touchstone for the study of Late Antiquity itself. * ABOUT THE EDITOR: SCOTT FITZGERALD JOHNSON is Dumbarton Oaks Teaching Fellow in Postclassical Greek at Georgetown University * SHIPPING: MNEMOSYNE carefully wraps, labels & custom-packages this fine book for FREE domestic shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL (or USPS PRIORITY MAIL for a below-cost additional fee) & via USPS FIRST CLASS INTERNATIONAL AIRMAIL to all international destinations at our posted rates. …
