Ancio Resti\u00f3n. A note\u00bb presents a work on numismatics based on the study of the Roman-Republican series RRC 455 of C. Ancio Resti\u00f3n, made during the government of G. Julius Caesar (cos<\/em>. I 59 BC) and that pays special attention to the iconography of the denarii, and the success that this series would have with its later imitation in various parts of the Empire.<\/p>\n With "The Deception of Utopian Landscapes in the Odyssey<\/em>\u00bbReyes Bertol\u00edn Cebri\u00e1n analyzes the places through which Ulysses and other characters of the Odyssey<\/em> They travel to highlight the characteristics common to all of them, such as utopian landscapes, which create an expectation that sometimes contradicts the social and psychological basis of their inhabitants, who practice violence towards visitors either openly or surreptitiously.<\/p>\n For his part, Gabriel Laguna Mariscal, in his work on classical tradition \u00abLove me while you can<\/em>The literary topic of carpe diem <\/em>in the sung lyrics of The Beatles," proposes that the group's love songs, especially those composed between 1963 and 1966, are based on the theme of carpe diem<\/em>, And, following a detailed analysis, they can be traced back to Petrarch and Catullus.<\/p>\n F\u00e1bio Frohwein de Salles Moniz, in his article \u00abA epistle An vulgus et literati eodem moda per Terentii Tulliique tempora Romae locuti sint <\/em>(1435) by Leonardo Bruni: introductory study, translation and notes,\u00bb presents a proposed annotated translation of Bruni\u2019s Renaissance text on the everyday Latin of the Romans, and analyzes its relationship to an earlier text on the same subject (De verbis Romanae locutionis<\/em>, by Flavio Biondo) with which he enters into controversy.<\/p>\n The article "A Place in the Cosmos: Reflections of Christianity and Philosophy on the World in the 2nd and 3rd Centuries," by Miguel \u00c1ngel Ram\u00edrez Batalla, analyzes the opposing worldviews of Christians, on the one hand, and of the main classical philosophical schools (Stoics, Platonists, or Neoplatonics), on the other, and the influence this had on the history and culture of the Roman Empire in the 2nd and 3rd centuries AD.<\/p>\n Next, Luis Manuel Ruiz Garc\u00eda focuses on Latin lyric poetry in his work "Turbulent Seas: On Catullus's Poem 4," presenting a reinterpretation of the famous poem from a mythical and poetic rather than autobiographical perspective, emphasizing universal metaphors related to the sea and water in general. Breno Battistin Sebastiani's contribution is titled "Support Networks and Potential Communities in Greek Historiography: A Semantic-Narrative Approach.".<\/p>\n This work focuses on the philological and historiographical study of the development of Greek communities outside their original territory, and the sociological and political implications that this study can reveal, especially in terms of exile, deportation, and related issues, and how these led to the establishment of communication and support networks. Finally, Ana C. Vicente S\u00e1nchez, in "The Lexical Family of the Term \u03ba\u03cc\u03bc\u03c0\u03bf\u03c2 in 5th-Century Greek Tragedy," develops the semantic study of this term in tragic texts, with a wide variety of lexical derivatives that, starting from a basic meaning, encompass values affecting different spheres, including religious meanings.<\/p>\n The issue is completed by four reviews of Graham Zanker's publications, Fate and the Hero in Virgil's <\/em>Aeneid.
