Written by an international cast of experts, The Materiality of
Text showcases a wide range of innovative methodologies from
ancient history, literary studies, epigraphy, and art history and
provides a multi-disciplinary perspective on the physicality of
writing in antiquity. The contributions focus on epigraphic texts
in order to gauge questions of their placement, presence, and
perception: starting with an analysis of the forms of writing and
its perception as an act of physical and cultural intervention, the
volume moves on to consider the texts' ubiquity and strategic
positioning within epigraphic, literary, and architectural spaces.
The contributors rethink modern assumptions about the processes of
writing and reading and establish novel ways of thinking about the
physical forms of ancient texts.
