Classical Scholarship in Translation provides English translations of some particularly notable and significant scholarship on the ancient Greek and Roman worlds and their reception written in other languages in order to make it better known and appreciated. All areas of classical scholarship are considered.

The collection Libera Res Publica (LRP) intends to publish quality monographs on the Roman Republic (509-30 B.C.), both individual and collective books as well as proceedings of conferences. The collection seeks a clear international projection, aims to be in the medium term an international reference in studies on the Roman Republic, and therefore admits manuscripts in Spanish, English, French, German and Italian. As for the subject matter, the collection is interested in institutional, political, social, economic, historiographic, cultural and gender aspects relating to the Roman Republic.

Modern diachronic linguistics has important contacts with other subdisciplines, notably first-language acquisition, learnability theory, computational linguistics, sociolinguistics and the traditional philological study of texts. It is now recognized in the wider field that diachronic linguistics can make a novel contribution to linguistic theory, to historical linguistics and arguably to cognitive science more widely. This series provides a forum for work in both diachronic and historical linguistics, including work on change in grammar, sound, and meaning within and across languages; synchronic studies of languages in the past; and descriptive histories of one or more languages. It is intended to reflect and encourage the links between these subjects and fields such as those mentioned above.

Platonism has been ever a shaping force in the religious imagination of the West. This series is devoted to the long tradition of Platonism, from pagan Antiquity to Christian, Muslim and Jewish forms, into the contemporary era. From the logos speculation of the Alexandrians to the negative theology of the medievals; from hymns to heavenly beauty in the Renaissance to the Romantic longing for the holy; from modernist laments for discarded metaphysical ideas and icons, to postmodern critiques of Platonic presence, the spiritual legacy of the Athenian sage has been hotly debated, fiercely contested, and fervently admired. The volumes in the series explore the momentous religious inheritance of Platonism, not merely in philosophy, but also in theology, politics, poetry, and the arts.

Classics in Theory explores the new directions for classical scholarship opened up by critical theory. Inherently interdisciplinary, the series creates a forum for the exchange of ideas between classics, anthropology, modern literature, philosophy, psychoanalysis, politics, and other related fields. Invigorating and agenda-setting volumes analyse the cross-fertilizations between theory and classical scholarship and set out a vision for future work on the productive intersections between the ancient world and contemporary thought.

Contexts of and Relations between Early Writing Systems (CREWS) is a European Research Council funded project hosted at the Faculty of Classics, Cambridge. We are working on new approaches to the history of writing, with a focus on writing systems of the ancient Aegean, Eastern Mediterranean and Levant (c.2000-600 BC).

Die Antike und ihre Rezeption wurden bisher weitgehend in den Grenzen von Fachdisziplinen erforscht. In der Reihe Transformationen der Antike steht dagegen die interdisziplinäre Kontextualisierung der produktiven Transformationen antiker Wissenschaften und Künste im Vordergrund. Dargestellt wird der langwellige, von der Spätantike bis zur Moderne reichende Prozess der Herausbildung des Wissenschaftssystems der Kunstgattungen und der kulturellen Selbstkonstruktion der europäischen Gesellschaften.

The series Commentaria in Aristotelem Graeca et Byzantina: Series academica is published by the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and functions as a complement to the series Commentaria in Aristotelem Graeca et Byzantina: Sources and Studies. The editions and source collections of the Series academica provide a basis for research on Byzantine philosophy and education and on the lasting impact of peripatetic philosophy in the Greek middle ages. The series succeeds to the Commentaria in Aristotelem Graeca (1882–1909) directed by Hermann Diels and published by the Royal Prussian Academy of Sciences.

Publications on Greek and Roman Antiquity published by the National Hellenic Research Foundation and distributed by Brepols.

This series presents innovative case studies in accounts of ancient society, from specific spheres such as religion, economics, law, and literature, to dynamics such as space, time, power, and subjecthood.

The series Trends in Classics – Greek and Latin Linguistics (TCGLL), part of the larger cluster Trends in Classics, focusses on the linguistic study of the two languages that form the basis of the traditional curriculum of classical studies. This new series aspires to publish innovative work in the form of monographs, collective works, and conference proceedings, as well as works on specific themes that concern the linguistic study of Greek and Latin. The overall approach promoted by the series includes both traditional philological methods and advances of modern linguistic analysis of various theoretical strands applied to the study of the classical languages, while various interdisciplinary methods and techniques that bridge the fields of classical philology and linguistics may be implemented. In this spirit, the new series aspires on the one hand, to provide a forum for a renewed discussion of the relation between classical philology and linguistics, and investigate on the other,...

Rewriting Antiquity provides a platform to examine major themes of the ancient world in a broad, holistic and inclusive fashion. Coverage is broad both in time and space, allowing a full appreciation of the selected topic rather than an exclusive view bound by a relatively short timescale and place. Each volume examines a key theme from the Ancient Near East to Late Antiquity, and often beyond, to break down the boundaries habitually created by focusing on one region or time period.

This new series aims to provide state of the art guides to research in Classical Studies (across the fields of Language and Literature, Ancient History, Archaeology, and Ancient Philosophy and Science) that explore the key themes and ideas shaping previous scholarship on individual authors, genres, and topics. Each volume is authored by a prominent scholar in the respective field and offers a critical reappraisal of research conducted in recent decades that illuminates the state of contemporary scholarship. With its paperback volumes, the series is perfectly designed to offer students and scholars reliable, stimulating guides to what really matters in important fields of classical research today, as well as suggestions for future lines of study.

Trends in Classics – Pathways of Reception publishes innovative, crossdisciplinary work in the field of Classical Reception Studies, investigating the “pathways” through which Greek and Roman material has been transmitted, translated, transformed, interpreted, and represented in Postclassical Literature & Culture, Philosophy & Political Theory, Visual & Performing Arts as well as in the film industry. The series welcomes both monographs and edited volumes providing deep insights into specific and so far neglected aspects of the reception of antiquity.

The Elements in Ancient Philosophy series deals with a wide variety of topics and texts in ancient Greek and Roman philosophy, written by leading scholars in the field. Some Elements will take a theme, question, or type of argument and explore it across antiquity and beyond. Others will look in detail at a particular ancient author, a specific work, or some significant part of a longer work, considering its structure, content, and significance. Still others will explore more directly ancient perspectives on modern philosophical questions. These authoritative but accessible studies are aimed at an audience of scholars, graduate students, and more advanced undergraduates in the areas of classics and philosophy. All original Greek and Latin texts will be accompanied by a translation into English.

In der 1968 gegründeten Reihe erscheinen Monographien aus den Gebieten der Griechischen und Lateinischen Philologie sowie der Alten Geschichte.
