Jonas Grethlein

Summary: In his work "Imagines", Philostratus the Elder attempts to immerse the reader in the paintings he describes. However, an analysis of the text reveals that the focus is more on Philostratus' rhetorical brilliance rather than creating a sense of immersion for the reader.

Self and selfishness in Late Antiquity: Plotinus on oikeiosis

Daniel Regnier

Summary: The author examines Plotinus' development of self-understanding by critiquing the Stoic concepts. In his early works, Plotinus rejects the Stoic notion of the hegemonikon of the soul. However, he later engages with the Stoic concept of oikeiosis, exploring its function in relation to selfhood. Ultimately, Plotinus argues that both the Stoic understanding of the hegemonikon and oikeiosis are untenable, as they lead to selfishness.

ODYSSEAN MEDIATIONS IN EUDOCIA'S MARTYRDOM OF ST CYPRIAN

Domenico Pratico

Summary: The article examines the use of Odyssean lexical items and themes in Eudocia's Martyrdom of St Cyprian, proposing the introduction of a new concept called 'diatext' to describe the intermediate thematic model provided by the Odyssey. It particularly focuses on the complex portrayal of Cyprian as the poetic/narratorial alter ego of Eudocia, and his resemblance to Odysseus in Book 2.
