Studies in Greek Epigraphy
Coordinated by Ángel Martínez Fernández, professor in the Department of Classical and Arabic Philology
This volume includes contributions from forty-two prestigious specialists from various countries, addressing different issues of interest regarding this discipline.
Epigraphy is the science dedicated to the study of inscriptions on hard materials (stone, bone, metal, ceramics, etc.) and establishes methodologies for their interpretation. The objective, therefore, is to interpret, read, and decipher inscriptions in order to obtain as much information as possible.
The contributions to this book, which exceeds five hundred pages, correspond to several sections: editions of 'corpora' of Greek inscriptions; revisions of known texts; paleography, alphabets, writing; linguistic studies and dictionaries; onomastics; epigrams; relations with literature; economics; society; epigraphy and politics; inscriptions and religion; inscriptions and magic; epigraphy and mythology; funerary epigraphy; relations with archaeology; new findings in Greek epigraphy; and, finally, new inscriptions.
