ICONOδRAMMA. TESTI E IMMAGINI (V-IV SEC. A.C.)

Continuità e variazioni iconografiche

March 20, 2025

02:00 p.m.

Conference room, Ex Boccherini (Piazza San Ponziano,6)

Speakers: Anna Beltrametti, Maria Luisa Catoni, Monica Centanni, Paolo Biagio Cipolla, Michele Di Bello, Alessandro Grilli, Roberto Indovina, Riccardo Olivito, Alessandro Poggio

The Seminar explores the complex relationship between ancient Greek theatrical texts and vase painting. It builds on status quaestionis to further explore how the visual and textual media interact, influence and reinterpret each other. Scholars will take a multidisciplinary approach, combining philology, iconography, archaeology and dramaturgy to analyse the dynamic interplay between word and image. The seminar will not only address existing debates, but also open up new avenues of inquiry into the transmedial transformation of myth and narrative in the ancient world.
