A brilliant and playful demonstration of how to organise, focus and contextualise these important individual contributions from a remarkable conference. -- Gregory N. Daugherty, Professor Emeritus of Classics Randolph-Macon College, USA One of the successes of this edited volume is the wide variety of specialities displayed and insights into varied areas of research. Extensive bibliographies after each entry will guide the novice reader to new possibilities. In the concluding Coda, Juliette Harrisson reiterates that “a playful reception of the ancient world is an active one, not a passive one” (261). ‘Playing’ in the ancient world not only creates deeper connections with the source material, it bathes it in a new light. * Classical Journal *
