Subject(s): Online resources: Summary: Philology lies at the heart of a triangle formed by the author, the text, and the audience. This threefold relationship also involves the factor of time—time as embodied in the transmission of the text, which separates the author from the reader. The task of philology is precisely to confront the effects of time. On the one hand, it seeks to diminish, even erase these effects, by bringing the text closer to the original state in which it was conceived by its author, eliminating the errors accumulated over the centuries. On the other hand, philology is responsible for reactivating time, by enabling the reader to understand the text within the context in which it was created. It also bears the responsibility of making the text present—of allowing it to live on through the work of translation.These challenges form the thematic core of the contributions gathered in this volume, which stem from a conference held at the Collège de France on October 5–6, 2023. The first section, “Paths of Classical Philology,” examines the various ways of recounting the long history of the transmission of ancient texts, highlighting key figures, periodizations, concepts, and models. The second section, “Voices of Classical Philology,” gives the floor to several scholars engaged in editing classical works and studying the history of philology. Some contributions explore current trends in the art of editing, translating, and commenting on ancient texts. Others retrace the development of various journals and series that illuminate the history of this scholarly fieldPPN: PPN: 1983960063Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-94-OAB
