Tra le 6 coppie tematiche di inni in cui puo essere suddiviso il Cathemerinon di Prudenzio, quella formata dagli inni 9 (Hymnus omnis horae) e 10 (Hymnus circa exequias defuncti) e stata spesso considerata la piu debole, alla quale si arrivava quasi "per esclusione" dopo aver definito le altre cinque. Questo studio, che affianca ad una introduzione generale sulla vita e le opere di Prudenzio un ampio e dettagliato commento ai due singoli inni corredato di una nuova traduzione, cerca di scandagliare le fonti sia letterarie che teologiche che costituiscono la base su cui il poeta costruisce la propria opera. Cosi facendo, ci si propone di fornire una nuova chiave d'interpretazione che permetta una piu profonda comprensione dei due testi, mettendone in luce l'unita di fondo e chiarendone il ruolo di inni pasquali all'interno del Cathemerinon.
L'art narratif a-t-il pour mission d'orienter et de modifier les pensees et l'affectivite des lecteurs ? C'est l'un des projets que Longos assigne a sa fiction, en un prologue ou il demarque l'ambition instructive de Thucydide. Il desire ainsi rivaliser avec une peinture. Dans la description de celle-ci, les circonstances pastorales ne sont indiquees que comme un episode, dont la situation chronologique est incertaine, parmi les aventures figurees. Pourtant, l'histoire de Daphnis et Chloe raconte l'apprentissage de l'amour et le mariage de deux jeunes pastoureaux dans un cadre campagnard. S'agit-il d'une mise en scene romanesque de themes de la poesie bucolique ? Ce livre analyse les multiples emprunts de Longos a la tradition litteraire, a l'historiographie, mais aussi aux differents genres poetiques (epique, hymnique, lyrique, bucolique, epigrammatique), au theatre, a Platon, a Plutarque, et sa participation aux debats de la critique litteraire. De telles analyses montrent comment Longos joue du decalage, de la transposition, du paradoxe, de l'inversion, du contraste et de la contradiction, afin d'illustrer une esthetique litteraire et de defendre une conception morale et religieuse associee a un mythe paradisiaque.

This encyclopaedia, compiled around 530 AD,is more or less the Byzantine Encyclopaedia Britannica of the ancient world. It lists some 3,600 names of places, mountains, lakes, rivers, waters and peoples, explaining their origins and derivations. The founding legends and wealth of cultural historical information contained in it make it a source text for polis research; in addition, it is a treasure trove of quotations andliterary fragments.
This comprehensive geographical encyclopaedia, compiled around 530 A.D., catalogues some 3,600 names of places, mountains, lakes, rivers, waters and peoples from the ancient world. Particular attention is paid to the etymology of names and the grammatical derivations of the Ethnika . For cultural historical information - here with the evidence of the attributed quotations - Stephanos is often the sole source. This new critical edition replaces A. Meineke's long obsolete edition of 1849. The text of the directly recorded epitomes is accompanied by an apparatus of parallel terms which takes account of both the sources of the encyclopaedia and its later users. This first translation of the encyclopaedia in a modern language and the notes (particularly on language, onomastics and topography) open up the work to a wide circle of scholars engaged in studies of antiquity. Volume 2 (delta - kappa) is planned for publication in 2008, volumes 3 and 4 in 2012 and 2015 respectively.
