Classics in the Modern World brings together a collection of
distinguished international contributors to discuss the features
and implications of a 'democratic turn' in modern perceptions of
ancient Greece and Rome. It examines how Greek and Roman material
has been involved with issues of democracy, both in political
culture and in the greater diffusion of classics in recent times
outside the elite classes. By looking at individual case studies
from theatre, film, fiction, TV, radio, museums, and popular media,
and through area studies that consider trends over time in
particular societies, the volume explores the relationship between
Greek and Roman ways of thinking and modern definitions of
democratic practices and approaches, enabling a wider re-evaluation
of the role of ancient Greece and Rome in the modern world.
