Classical Review

Emotions are running high at CR this week with Davide Morassi's review of "Emotionen im Krieg - Krieg der Emotionen" and Douglas Cairn's review of "Memory and Emotions in Antiquity" both being published: cambridge.org/core/journals/…

CR has expanded the type of articles it publishes - from single reviews to review articles and profiles focused on emerging trends. For more information see the latest blog from the editors: cambridge.org/core/blog/2025…

‘By its breadth of knowledge on offer the volume will also speak to a wider audience than scholars of the ancient world. This is a 'monumentum aere perennius', for decades and generations to come’ Laes on Thumiger | @CambUP_Classics cambridge.org/core/journals/…

‘The volume makes an important contribution to the current research concerning Roman society as well as the history of sexuality and gender scholarship’ Vucetic on Gazzarri and Weiner | @degruyter_brill cambridge.org/core/journals/…

‘R.’s book can be warmly recommended as a gateway to the most detailed and extensive document of spatial geographical knowledge that has survived from Graeco-Roman antiquity’ Jones on Roller | @routledgebooks cambridge.org/core/journals/…

‘CGRN is a scientific product of high quality. It is of great help to all scholars interested in ancient Greek religion and is also of interest to a broader cultured audience’ Dobias-Lalou on Carbon, Peels-Matthey and Pirenne-Delforge's CGRN platform cambridge.org/core/journals/…

‘it will be an incredibly useful tool for generations to come as they grapple with (arguably) the hardest and most complex of the Greek tragedians’ Di Martino on Bromberg and Burian’s A Companion to Aeschylus | @WileyHumanities cambridge.org/core/journals/…

‘the volume offers a valid point of departure for those wishing to engage in the study of emotions in ancient literature from a comparative perspective’ Castelli on Lasine | @routledgebooks cambridge.org/core/journals/…

‘This book is informative and full of insights that illuminate the significance of gender in ancient ways of knowing’ Park on Bowen, Gilbert and Nally | @EdinburghUP cambridge.org/core/journals/…
