    This wide-ranging collection makes available to specialists and nonspecialists alike important critical work on the Odyssey produced during the last half century. The ten essays address five major concerns: the poem's programmatic representation of social and religious institutions and values; its transformation of folktales and traditional stories into epic adventures; its representation of gender roles and, in particular, of Penelope; its narrative strategies and form; and its relation to the Iliad, especially to that epic's distinctive conception of heroism. In the introduction, Seth L. Schein describes the poetic background to the work and suggests a variety of interpretive approaches, some of which are developed in the essays that follow. These essays include previously published work by Jean-Pierre Vernant, Pierre Vidal-Naquet, Pietro Pucci, and Charles P. Segal. There also are a new essay by Laura M. Slatkin, two revised and expanded ones by Nancy Felson-Rubin and Michael N. Nagler, and three appearing in English for the first time by Uvo Hlscher, Karl Reinhardt, and Vernant. The result is a collection that juxtaposes older, often hard-to-find articles with significant newer pieces in a way that allows for a fruitful dialogue among them

    Round Trip to Hades in the Eastern Mediterranean Tradition explores how the theme of visiting the Underworld and returning alive has been treated, transmitted and transformed in the ancient Greek and Byzantine traditions. The journey was usually a descent ( katabasis ) into a dark and dull place, where forgetfulness and punishment reigned, but since 'everyone' was there, it was also a place that offered opportunities to meet people and socialize. Famous Classical round trips to Hades include those undertaken by Odysseus and Aeneas, but this pagan topic also caught the interest of Christian writers. The contributions of the present volume allow the reader to follow the passage from pagan to Christian representations of Hades-a passage that may seem surprisingly effortless.

    Dem Mythos zufolge spiegelt sich in der Topografie der Unterwelt die Lebenswirklichkeit als Negativität. Die Totenwelt hat seit alters literarisches Leben gezeugt, in eigentümllich konzentrierter Form gerade auch in der literarischen Moderne – zwischen Décadence und Vitalismus. Diese Studie verwörtlicht Nietzsches These von der Kunst als einer »Todtenbeschwörerin«. Sie fragt nach der Bedeutung des Hades als Kernmotiv der literarischen Moderne, begleitet von bildlichen Figurationen des Styx als einem poetologischen Topos. Auch in transkulturellen Zusammenhängen ist diese Bildlichkeit bedeutsam. An exemplarischen Beispielen in Texten von Theodor Däubler, Else Lasker-Schüler, H. v. Hofmannsthal, Virginia Woolf und Robert Musil, Kafka und Döblin, T.S. Eliot wie auch Rilke bis hin zu Ingeborg Bachmann wird diese Topografie motivgeschichtlich und in ihrer figurativen Bedeutsamkeit untersucht.
