Note(s) : At the Crossroads of Greco-Roman History, Culture, and Religion' brings together recent
research from a range of upcoming and well-established scholars to demonstrate the
richness of the cross-cultural exchange of ideas around the ancient Mediterranean
along with the reception of and continuing dialogues with these ideas in the medieval
and modern worlds. The crossroads theme both honours the memory of our late colleague
and friend Carin M. C. Green, who published an important book on the cult of Diana-one
of whose aspects was Trivia, the goddess of crossroads-and emphasizes how each encounter
of new topic or genre forces the reader to pause and think before proceeding down
the new path. The contents are arranged accordingly under three headings: (1) Greek
philosophy, history, and historiography; (2) Latin literature, history, and historiography;
and (3) Greco-Roman material culture, religion, and literature. These papers also
coincide in myriad ways across the three headings, tracing themes such as friendship,
leadership, and the reception of ideas in the arenas of philosophy, historiography,
manuscript studies, poetry, medicine, art, and war. Within this delimited framework,
the volume's diversity of topics and approaches to a range of genres in the Greco-
Roman world is intended both to appeal to the general scholar with varied interests
and to offer students a wide scope through which to consider those genres
