Contents:
Frontmatter -- Contents -- Introduction -- Part I: In limine -- 1 À rebours: intervisuality from the Middle Ages to classical antiquity -- 2 From image to theatrical play in Aeschylus’ Oresteia -- Part II: Archaic and classical age -- 3 Homer and the art of cinematic warfare -- 4 Intervisuality in the Greek symposium -- 5 The protohistory of portraits in words and images (sixth–fifth century BCE): tyrants, poets, and artists -- 6 Looking at Athens through the lyric lens -- 7 The politics of intervisuality -- Part III: Hellenistic and imperial age -- 8 The goddess playing with gold -- 9 Intervisuality in declamation and sung poetry in imperial Greek cities -- 10 Intervisual allusions in Lucian, Dialogues of the Sea Gods 15 -- 11 Was Philostratus the Elder an admirer of Ovidian enargeia? -- 12 ἐκ τῶν πινάκων. Aristaenetus’ intervisual allusions to Philostratus’ art gallery -- Part IV: Pointing to Rome -- 13 Ordering the res gestae: observations on the relationship between texts and images in Roman ‘historical’ representations -- Appendix -- List of contributors -- Index nominum et rerum notabilium -- Index locorum
Summary: Intertextuality is a well-known tool in literary criticism and has been widely applied to ancient literature, with, perhaps surprisingly, classical scholarship being at the frontline in developing new theoretical approaches. By contrast, the seemingly parallel notion of intervisuality has only recently begun to appear in classical studies. In fact, intervisuality still lacks a clear definition and scope. Unlike intertextuality, which is consistently used with reference to the interrelationship between texts, the term ‘intervisuality’ is used not only to trace the interrelationship between images in the visual domain, but also to explore the complex interplay between the visual and the verbal. It is precisely this hybridity that interests us. Intervisuality has proved extremely productive in fields such as art history and visual culture studies. By bringing together a diverse team of scholars, this project aims to bring intervisuality into sharper focus and turn it into a powerful tool to explore the research field traditionally referred to as ‘Greek literature’.
