Brill's Companion to the Reception of Aristophanes
The volume has three goals:
1) to provide a substantive account of the reception of Aristophanes from antiquity to the present;
2) to study the various ways that Aristophanes and his plays have been understood, appropriated, adapted, translated, produced, and staged, with careful attention given to critical moments of reception across temporal, linguistic, cultural, national, and disciplinary boundaries;
3) to fill a gap in the existing bibliography in Classical Reception Studies: while several monographs, collections, articles, and dissertations have explored aspects of the reception of Aristophanes or the reception of ancient comedy, no single volume is wholly devoted to the long and diverse reception of Aristophanic comedy.
Contributors are Gregory Baker, Cécile Dudouyt, John Given, Matthew J. Kinservik, Stavroula Kiritsi, David Konstan, Mike Lippman, C.W. Marshall, Alexandre G. Mitchell, Mark Payne, Charles Platter, James Robson, Ralph Rosen, Niall W. Slater, Gonda Van Steen, Philip Walsh, Rosie Wyles, and Donna Zuckerberg.
