Grecorromana. Revista Chilena de Estudios Clásicos
type: channel
description: Grecorromana. Revista Chilena de Estudios Clásicos is an academic publication affiliated with the Department of Humanities at Universidad Andrés Bello, Chile. Its purpose is to strengthen the study of the ancient Greco-Roman world within Latin America, including its development through Late Antiquity and its reception in subsequent periods (Classical Reception). The journal is defined by its commitment to highlighting classical scholarship produced in the region and integrating it into the broader international academic debate. Accordingly, Grecorromana offers a platform for publishing original and meaningful research—whether through theoretical or methodological innovation, or through new translations and commentaries on classical sources, particularly in Spanish. In doing so, Grecorromana fosters critical and analytical engagement with Classical Antiquity, encouraging dialogue among the many disciplines that comprise Classical Studies, such as history, philosophy, philology, archaeology, art, and mythology. It brings together scholars from across Latin America and the wider international community. Except in the case of source materials or new translations, submissions to Grecorromana must be original, unpublished, and not under consideration elsewhere. All manuscripts undergo a double-blind peer review process, during which reviewers may request revisions from the author. In cases where evaluations diverge significantly, a third review may be solicited to reach a final decision. Manuscripts are evaluated according to official review guidelines Grecorromana, which consider both formal elements—such as title, abstract, keywords, length, writing style, and formatting—and substantive criteria, including relevance, originality, clarity of research question and hypothesis, use of primary sources, bibliography, and the strength of the theoretical and methodological framework. The journal is published annually. Beginning in 2025, Grecorromana will adopt a continuous publ…

The Amazon and the Polis: Civic Identity in the Coinage of Hellenistic Kyme
type: item
description: This article examines the role of coinage in the construction and expression of civic identity in the Hellenistic polis of Kyme, in Aeolis (western Asia Minor). Based on numismatic evidence from the late fourth to the second century BCE, the study traces the transition from Seleucid royal issues to fully civic stephanophoric coinage. It aims to show how Kyme engaged with inherited Hellenistic monetary habits while progressively shaping distinctly civic visual and symbolic repertoire. Particular attention is given to the selection and adaptation of iconographic elements, including panhellenic types, regional identities, and the local Amazonian foundation tradition. Through a historical analysis of the Kymaian coinage, the article demonstrates how coinage provided Kyme with a durable medium for expressing civic self-representation within broader political and economic frameworks. By situating Kymaian coinage within its regional and historical context, this study highlights the value of numismatic analysis for understanding how poleis of Asia Minor negotiated continuity and change in the Hellenistic period.

The place of the soul: cardiocentrism and entelechism
type: item
description: There is a long-standing debate among Aristotelians regarding the location of the soul. The traditional interpretation is that in Motu An. and other biological treatises, the soul is said to reside in the heart, the hottest part of the body. This theory is known as cardiocentrism. Conversely, when the philosopher writes a treatise specifically addressing the topic of the soul, i.e., De An., he revises his view and argues for a soul that is the actuality of the entire body, with no specific location. This theory is known as entelechism. In this paper, we will assert that Aristotle maintained his cardiocentric approach in De An. and never abandoned the theory. Furthermore, we will attempt to demonstrate that cardiocentrism and entelechism are ultimately compatible and not mutually exclusive.

A Matter of Belief? Remarks on Calcidius’ Theology and Cosmology
type: item
description: The purpose of this article is to study the theology and cosmogony in Calcidius’ Commentary on Plato’s Timaeus, with the aim of proposing the need to reevaluate his religious allegiance, typically assumed as Christian. Calcidius, author of a translation and a Commentary on Plato’s Timaeus is a key figure in the transmission of Platonic (and Greek) thought in the Latin-speaking world. Since the early Middle Ages he has been considered a Christian, whose orthodoxy is rather flexible, a position that has rarely been challenged. Recent studies have examined the possibility of Calcidius being a pagan rather than a Christian, although no conclusive evidence has been found because of the difficulties associated with the subject. Accordingly, our aim is to present evidence based on his theology (certain polytheist elements, for example) and cosmogony (its fundamental incompatibility with creatio ex nihilo) to show that there are compelling reasons to be skeptical about his religious affiliation. Thus, our intention is to propose the need to reexamine Calcidius’ work considering the possibility of a pagan identity, to improve the understanding of his role as a bridge between the pagan and Christian worlds.

Silence in the Hippocratic Corpus
type: item
description: This article discusses silence in the CH and is part of a line of scientific literature on patient disorders and, more specifically, on disorders of phonation and physician silence. Basically, I’m trying to show that there are two perspectives on this subject: one has to do with doctor-patient confidentiality, the other with the patient who is sometimes unable to speak. There are two points of view on this: one is related to doctor-patient confidentiality, the other with that of the patient who is sometimes unable to speak. The conclusions determine that the various meanings of the term silence allow us to understand that it is a complex phenomenon in the CH treaties.

Aristotle, the jettison and the νοῦν ἔχοντες (Eth. Nic. III 1110a9-11)
type: item
description: We examine the relevance of the ordinary language expression ὁ νοῦν ἔχων in the Aristotelian corpus. We aim to confirm the hypothesis that Aristotle uses it to refer to the basic stratum of practical rationality, starting from a clarification of the expression ἅπαντες οἱ νοῦν ἔχοντες found in the example of mixed action involving jettison (Nicomachean Ethics III.1 1110a9–10). We begin by contextualizing jettison and the two other nautical examples in Eth. Nic. III.1 1110a3–4 within the literature and practice of ancient Greek navigation. Next, we defend our interpretation of the jettison passage through several philological considerations regarding the verb νοεῖν and by gathering the quasi-definitional uses of the figure of the νοῦν ἔχων in the Aristotelian corpus. We then analyze the configuration of action that Aristotle generally attributes to the voῦν ἔχοντες. Finally, we show how the study of the figure of the νοῦν ἔχων shows the basic stratum of practical rationality, the epistemic deficit inherent to agents, the confluency of purposes involved in the fulfillment of actions and the transaction between initiative and constraint of the circumstances to which this realization is inevitably subjected to.

Historiographical Study on the Munera Gladiatoria and the Amphitheaters of Roman Hispania: The Case of Catalonia
type: item
description: The following work establishes a historiographical balance of studies on gladiature and amphitheaters in the Eastern Tarraconense region, particularly in cities with evidence of Roman amphitheaters and gladiatorial munera activity, especially in Catalonia. For this we consider the historical and archaeological context of gladiature in said region; aspects such as the excavation of a limited number of amphitheaters, such as Emporion, Barcino and, mainly, the site of Tarraco, the capital of Hispania Citerior, later called Tarraconese, in its easternmost part. Likewise, studies of archaeological, epigraphic, and iconographic materials linked, in said region, to gladiatorial activity will be considered, systematizing the historiographic information generated so far, discussing the regional problems on the established theme. The historiographic study allows us to know the state of the matter, the most relevant discussions on the subject in order to establish future research work.

Matronae and Political Role in the Crisis of the Roman Republic: Toward a State of the Question
type: item
description: This article examines the work of 21st-century historians who explore the political role and impact of upper-class women, known as matronae, within the context of the crises that shaped late Republican Rome. These studies highlight the inherent challenges of female representation, shaped by the political conflicts of the men who depicted them. Furthermore, they challenge traditional perspectives that relegated women to passive and secondary roles within the Republican political system, while exploring alternative forms of participation beyond the strictly political-constitutional framework.

Considerations on Death in the Roman World:Death, Memory, Spirits, Acceptance, and Rejection
type: item
description: An analysis and theoretical discussion based on the literature of the period, as well as epigraphic elements that complement the construction of memory, allow for a critical examination of certain perspectives on death in the Roman world. This inquiry explores what Romans socially constructed when contemplating and imagining the afterlife. This reflection is not solely about those who have passed, but also concerns the survivors, who, facing the inevitability of death or its immediate presence, adopt diverse attitudes. These attitudes are shaped by personal beliefs and represent an attempt to make sense of the cessation of life.

The Visual Rhetoric of the Principate: The Persuasive Function of the Northern Campus Martius as a Manifestation of the Augustan Renewal
type: item
description: The aim of this study is to understand, by means of an analytical apparatus that updates the idea of rhetoric, the way in which Augustan classicism made use of an official iconography to visually express the pillars of the Principate. Under the premise of the renewal of the Republic, Augustus presented the foundations of the new government as a means to reinforce the notion of consensus of the people and the Senate. Thus, it is proposed to expose the Augustan constructions of the northern Campus Martius as a rhetorical ensemble with a persuasive function in favor of Augustus’ power.

Dubia. Antigonus. Ἱστοριων Παραδoξων Συναγωγh, Compilation of Marvels (Reflections, Notes, Translation, Bibliography)
type: item
description: Dubia refers to this commentary on a collection of 173 paradoxographical anecdota in Ancient Greek, of uncertain authorship and title. The apparent simplicity of the work, lacking innovation and composed of light, popular material focused on grotesque and astonishing themes, conceals clear values of conceptual technique, such as rewriting, reinvention, source manipulation, and the continuity of the literary genre. Contemporary scholarship attributes these brief, informative narratives, preserved in a single manuscript, to Pseudo-Antigonus, dating from the third century BCE. Exhibiting Hellenistic erudition, these diverse empirical notes explore the spectrum between the incredible and the plausible, arranged into thematic groups across various cultural domains, providing insights into ethnography, anthropology, botany, geography, hydrology, zoology, and traditional knowledge. Overall, the collection invites the reader to a philosophical exercise in rational inquiry into the inexplicable.

The idle argument and Chrysippus’ rebuttal: notes for the study of Stoic compatibilism
type: item
description: The present article examines the ἀργὸς λόγος (lazy or idle argument, LA), its application against Stoicism, and Chrysippus’ response to this objection. The LA charges that determinism precludes motivation for action, such that, applied to life as a whole, an agent might refuse to act altogether. This is expressed by way of an example: if someone is fated to be cured of an illness, he will do so whether or not he visits a doctor. The LA postulates a disjunction between past and future, so that if something is fated, what happens in the interval between one moment and another is irrelevant to the realization of that future. Chrysippus, against this, proposes co-fatedness as the philosophical key that allows us to establish a causal and explanatory relationship between the different events that take place in the cosmos. We propose to approach Chrysippus’ response according to two hermeneutical hypotheses: a) the Chrysippean response to the LA does not refute its central objection and, therefore, does not explain motivation; b) the Chrysippean response to the LA has problems that mirrors those present in Stoic compatibilist arguments and, consequently, exposes a limitation that seems constitutive of Stoic determinism.

Solon and Dionysius Chalcus: The ideal of «love» in Archaic Athens
type: item
description: This paper aims to shed light on the ideal of love in the Athenian polis from the late 7th to the first half of the 5th century BC through the poetic writings of Solon and Dionysius Chalcus by shaping a dialogue between the two authors, following the path of emotional communities. The study seeks to settle the dialectic between philéō (φιλέω) and éros (ἔρoς) and the context in which these were generated. A tendency for an eminently asymmetrical couple relationship was observed, in the case of heterosexual relationships, and a preference for male homoerotic relationships and paidophileín (παιδοφιλεῖν), according to the tendency of female segregation with the initiatory acts, being the gymnasium and the symposium the spaces of éros liberation, and therefore, circumscribed to the male gender.

Rethinking Hellenistic Kingship: Mithridates Eupator and the Construction of Power in the Greek Cities of the Northern Pontus Euxinus
type: item
description: This article examines the relationship between Mithridates VI Eupator and the poleis north of the Black Sea through the political language of inscriptions and the practices of Hellenistic kingship. While XIX-XX century historiography, largely based on literary sources, has emphasized military conquest, «Oriental despotism», or imperial philhellenism, epigraphic evidence points instead to active civic negotiation and the management of local autonomy. The study argues that Mithridates should be understood as a Hellenistic monarch engaged in reciprocal relations with Greek cities, grounded in protection and cooperation during periods of instability. Focusing on sociopolitical practices such as eunoia and strategies of royal self-representation and drawing on John Ma’s model of reciprocity between kings and poleis, it concludes that Mithridates secured legitimacy among the Greeks of the Euxine by presenting his basileia as a protector of Hellenism.

Emanuele Stolfi, La giustizia in scena. Diritto e potere in Eschilo e Sofocle, il Mulino, Collana Saggi, Bologna 2022, 360 pp.
type: item
description: La giustizia in scena rappresenta un contributo innovativo nel vasto panorama degli studi sul diritto greco antico, ponendosi come modello per l’interlocuzione scientifica tra gli storici dei diritti antichi e gli studiosi della tragedia. L’Autore, pur riconoscendo l’attenzionedi giuristi e filosofi del diritto ai quesiti posti dai testi tragici alla moderna sensibilitàgiuridica e la recente fortuna della corrente di studi «Law in Literature», rileva un limitato interesse da parte degli storici dell’esperienza giuridica. Questo libro indica le possibili direzioni del contributo degli studiosi di diritto greco all’esame del teatro di Eschilo e Sofocle, proponendo un’integrazione del metodo storico-giuridico entro ampie linee di indagine (filologico-letterarie, linguistiche, antropologiche) per illustrare questioni nevralgiche rappresentate dai tragediografi.

Nikos Kazantzakis, La mia Grecia (Ταξιδεύοντας Μοριάς). Traduzione di Gilda Tentorio. Crocetti editore, Milano 2021, 208 pp.
type: item
description: Si deve al lavoro encomiabile di Crocetti editore la riscoperta di uno dei più grandi scrittori greci della prima metà del Novecento: Nikos Kazantzakis (Hiraklion 1883-Friburgo in Brisgovia 1957). Infatti, grazie alla recente pubblicazione di diverse opere di questo poeta, che per la prima volta sono tradotte direttamente dal greco all’italiano, la cultura italiana oggi ha modo di accostarsi in modo nuovo alla profondità concettuale di uno degli autori più prolifici e affascinanti del panorama letterario mondiale. In questo commento, si cercherà di ripercorrere gli aspetti più rilevanti de La mia Grecia, una raccolta di riflessioni frutto di un viaggio in treno nella sua terra nel 1937, commissionato dalla rivista Kathimerini.

description: El presente libro se aproxima a estudiar el mundo político de la Roma republicana desde el lente de la Political Culture. Esto, según sus editores, quiere decir que, además del estudio sobre el funcionamiento oficial de la política a través de las instituciones políticas y religiosas, la cultura política comprende aquel sistema de valores compartidos y de estrategias desplegadas en función de un consenso que permitió legitimar el funcionamiento de la república romana en distintos niveles.

David Braund, Greek Religion and Cult in the Black Sea region, Cambridge University press, Cambridge, 2018, 314 pp.
type: item
description: Il volume è l’ultimo contributo prodotto nell’ambito del Black Sea History Project. Si tratta di una linea di ricerche sulla colonizzazione greca nella regione del Bosforo, che l’Autore porta avanti, con interessi di respiro storico-archeologico ed epigrafico-letterario, ponendosi come interlocutore di una consolidata tradizione di studi di matrice europea orientale. Il contributo intende analizzare il ruolo di due divinità centrali del Bosforo, Parthenos e Afrodite Urania, e l’impatto che i loro culti ebbero in termini di mediazione tra gruppi sociali di matrice greca e gruppi autoctoni, coesistenti nella regione pontica, in un arco di tempo che va dal V sec. a.C. all’epoca romana.

Leslie Lagos Aburto, El helenismo en el siglo II d.C. La cultura griega a través de la Anábasis de Arriano de Nicomedia, Editorial Universidad de Concepción, Concepción, 2016, 224 pp.
type: item
description: Los estudios sobre historia clásica en Chile generalmente en los planes y programas de las universidades suelen articularse sobre dos ejes principales: la historia de Grecia y la historia de Roma. La presente publicación es una reflexión que toma un matiz diferente, y enmarcándose en la interpretación de los problemas culturales que atañen a ambas materias desde los estudios helenísticos, invitándonos a una reflexión integrada que apertura nuevas interpretaciones sobre el pasado que no se encasillen en las áreas ya mencionadas. El presente texto es el resultado de la investigación doctoral realizada por la Dra. Leslie Lagos Aburto. Titulada La Defensa Y Propaganda Del Helenismo En La Anábasis De Alejandro Magno De Arriano De Nicomediay presentada durante el año 2013 en la Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso, es un trabajo de carácter historiográfico que tiene como problema el papel de la Anábasis de Alejandro Magno, de Arriano de Nicomedia, en el contexto del movimiento cultural denominado Segunda Sofistica. Partiendo desde este punto, el trabajo, además de tener una perspectiva interesante, resulta ser un aporte debido a que este movimiento se caracteriza por ser estudiado a través de autores que se relacionan con la retórica, sin embargo, este libro parte de una obra de carácter histórico que, desde una perspectiva diferente, se integra en las interpretaciones sobre este movimiento cultural.

description: El libro de Paulo Donoso Johnson podría definirse, en primer término, como un estudio monográfico sobre recepción clásica de una de las obras más representativas de la historiografía griega: la Historia de la Guerra del Peloponeso de Tucídides. Pero esta misma condición hace de este texto un estudio mucho más complejo, que puede ser leído, en parte, como una historia de la lectura, una historia de la traducción, la historia de una historia y el relato cuasi-biográfico de una comunidad de lectores y de autores (o de lectores-autores), cuyo vínculo común ha sido y es, más allá de los límites cronológicos y geográficos, la pasión por el mundo griego antiguo y, en particular, por la obra de Tucídides.

description: In una temperie culturale che pare (talvolta eccessivamente) dominata dalla preoccupazione di una sedicente cancellatura dell’antico, Agamennone classico e contemporaneo mostra, in modo lucido e lontano da facili retoriche, come si possa instaurare un dialogo interdisciplinare sulla presenza, attraverso il teatro, «dei classici nella contemporaneità»(p. 3). Il volume costituisce l’esito finale di una serie di seminari tenutasi online nella primavera del 2021 sul «doppio “Agamennone”di Eschilo e di Seneca» (p. 3). F. Citti, A. Iannucci e A. Ziosi portano così alla sua terza tappa un progetto avviato nel 2010 dal Dipartimento di Beni Culturali e dal Centro di Studi «La permanenza del Classico» dell’Università di Bologna, il cui scopo è quello di confrontare un dramma ateniese con la sua riscrittura latina, e osservare la storia culturale percorsa da questi «ipotesti»(p. 4) in epoca moderna e contemporanea.

DROYSEN’S LEGACY: CULTURAL RELATIONSHIPS IN HELLENISTIC PERIOD HISTORIOGRAPHY
type: item
description: Current questions pertaining the relevance of the term «Hellenistic period» for historical analysis date back to the moment when J.G. Droysen established the cultural transformations caused by the encounters of Greek and non-Greeks as the main parameter for defining Hellenism. Due to his linking of the specificity of said historical period to a particular understanding of cultural relationships, any change in this last variable has altered our comprehension of the period as whole. This article studies three moments when historiography redefined its approaches to cultural relationships and the way it affected the research field itself.

ONE FOR ALL AND ALL FOR ONE: AN ANALYSIS OF SIGER OF BRABANT’S MONOPSYCHISM
type: item
description: Siger of Brabant’s philosophy represents an interesting alternative to the traditional scholastic thinking of Thomas Aquinas and Albert the Great. One of its main theses is the existence of a single intellect, shared by all beings at the intellective level; a doctrine known as monopsychism. In this article, we will go over the fundamentals offered by Siger to verify whether they hold up under the light of the psychology from where they are said to emerge, i.e., the Aristotelian psychology as exposed in the De Anima. The general conclusion is that Siger’s proposal contravenes certain pillars of that psychology and that monopsychism does not necessarily follow from it.

LUCIUS COELIUS ANTIPATER, A SOURCE OF LIVY FOR THE EVENTS OF THE FIRST MACEDONIAN WAR?
type: item
description: This article belongs to the tradition initiated by the German philological school known as Quellenforschung. It aims to demonstrate that the analysis of the testimonia and fragments of the Roman Republican historian Lucius Coelius Antipater do not support the thesis held by members of the German school, from Carl Böttcher onward. More specifically, the article seeks to refute the arguments presented by Wilhelm Sieglin concerning a hypothetical second work by Antipater, as well as those presented by Hermann Tränkle in his influential 1977’s book, Livius und Polybius. This text hasn’t yet received a formal academic response, so this paper seeks to demonstrate that the supposed mediation by Antipater that the German scholar has used to explain certain inconsistencies between Polybius and Livy’s narratives concerning the First Macedonian War don’t have any support in the available evidence.

AD TABULAM VALERIAM DUCTA ESSES THE CAUSES BEHIND THE ATTACK AGAINST TERENTIA
type: item
description: The 5th of October of the year 58 BC Cicero, from his exile, send a letter to his wife in which he lamented the humiliation she suffered in the hands of his political adversaries: she had been publicly conducted to the tabula Valeria to settle some debts. One of the most extended theories around this case defended that, despite being married sine manu, Terentia was conducted there to settle the matter of the confiscation of his husband’s property. However, in this article we shall argue that public retaliation against the female relatives of the proscribed and exiled men were rare during the Republic, and we will defend that Terentia had her own debts that got instrumentalised in that political confrontation.
