A growing interest in myth over the last decades has brought to the
fore the main mythographical manual that has came down to us from
Antiquity: Apollodorus' Bibliotheca. A number of recent editions
shows this trend, like the commented translations of Carriere &
Massonie (1991) and Scarpi & Ciani (1996), the translations of
Guidorizzi (1995), Brodersen (2004), Drager (2005) and Smith &
Trzaskoma (2007) or the critical text by Papathomopoulos (2010).
The publication of the first two volumes (2010 and 2012) of
Cuartero's massive critical and commented bilingual edition for the
Fundacio Bernat Metge series seemed the occasion to address this
text from innovative scholarly perspectives. The origins of the
present volume lay in a colloquium held at the Universitat Autonoma
de Barcelona in 2013. Despite its crucial interest for the
scientific study of ancient myth, no conference devoted to this
engaging text was held prior to that one. And, to this date, no
monographic volume on Apollodorus' mythology exists either. To
cover a broader scope of analysis, three further papers have been
commissioned to other specialists. This collection of essays is
meant to be a homage to Francesc J. Cuartero.
