An article written by a member of our group, Prof. Sánchez-Ostiz, will be soon published by Estudios Clásicos (Sociedad Española de Estudios Clásicos). Today we can offer you an abstract (in English and Spanish) of this forthcoming work:

This paper examines the proofs for the knowledge of Latin language and literature in the Greek world. Without specifically dealing with more general aspects like the bilingualism or the matter of Rome in Greek Literature, a special attention is dedicated to five more concrete evidences: a) Greek translations of Latin literary texts; b) the teaching of Latin language in the Greek world; c) Latin literary papyri from Egypt; d) literary authors of Greek origin who wrote in Latin; e) possible Latin hypotexts in Greek texts. These testimonies demonstrate that the presence of Rome in the culture of Greece is greater than what the traditional opinion defends and that it characterizes also the Late Antiquity as an intercultural interaction of traditions
