The relationship between the narrator and his narrative, the role of the author within his own works, and the reader's perception of his voice, have been a central issue in modern literary criticism. In spite of Roland Barthes' famous epitaph the author is not dead, but still enjoys good health and, as Irene Peirano puts it (and Tim Whitmarsh polemically remarks), is now a textual category and a hermeneutical tool in the literary discourse. This book, a collection of thirteen contributions edited by Anna Marmodoro and Jonathan Hill, attests his vitality and constant centrality, exploring the different facets of the author's voice in ancient literature, with a snapshot on visual art. The period covered is very wide: it ranges from Homeric epic to Ignatius of Antioch by way of the Roman Republic and the first centuries of the Empire. The authors and the literary genres are numerous: Homer and Virgil, Caesar and Xenophon, Cicero, Horace, and Pliny the Younger; tragedy, historiography, and epistolography.
This volume focuses on the authorial voice in antiquity exploring the different ways in which authors presented and projected various personas. In particular, it questions authority and ascription in relation to the authorial voice, and considers how later readers and authors may have understood the authority of a text's author.
