Автор: Quentin J. Broughall Название: Gore Vidal and Antiquity: Sex, Politics and Religion ISBN: 1350155802 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781350155800 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 79200.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: Representing the first survey of its kind, this book examines Vidal’s lifelong engagement with the ancient world. By exploring Vidal’s multi-faceted interaction with the classical past, Quentin J. Broughall argues that it was central to the way in which he viewed himself, his writing, and his world. Incorporating material from the full range of his prolific oeuvre, including novels, screenplays, essays and plays, this book will analyse the profound influence of classics upon Vidal.
Divided between three primary subjects of his writing – sex, politics and religion – this study traces the lengthy dialogue between Vidal and the ancient world over the course of his sixty-year career. It will evaluate the influence of a diverse array of ancient authors upon Vidal, including Aristophanes, Plato, Juvenal, and Petronius, and explore his portrayals of antiquity in novels such as Julian (1964) and Creation (1981). In addition, it will examine the ways in which the classical past inspired his many other works, including The City and the Pillar (1948) and Myra Breckinridge (1968).
Vital reading for scholars of classical reception, as well as specialists in American literature and LGBTQ+ studies, this study presents an original perspective on one of the most provocative and talked-about figures of his generation, putting the classical past back at the heart of understanding Gore Vidal’s extraordinary life and career.
Recent studies on the development of early Christianity emphasize the fragmentation of the late ancient world while paying less attention to a distinctive feature of the Christianity of this time which is its inter-connectivity. Both local and trans-regional networks of interaction contributed to the expansion of Christianity in this age of fragmentation. This volume investigates a specific aspect of this inter-connectivity in the area of the Mediterranean by focusing on the formation and operation of episcopal networks.
The rise of the bishop as a major figure of authority resulted in an increase in long-distance communication among church elites coming from different geographical areas and belonging to distinct ecclesiastical and theological traditions. Locally, the bishops in their roles as teachers, defenders of faith, patrons etc. were expected to interact with individuals of diverse social background who formed their congregations and with secular authorities. Consequently, this volume explores the nature and quality of various types of episcopal relationships in Late Antiquity attempting to understand how they were established, cultivated and put to use across cultural, linguistic, social and geographical boundaries.
