Brill Dynamics of Intertextuality in Plutarch - Brill's Studies

The Dynamics of Intertextuality in Plutarch examines the complex web of textual references and connections throughout Plutarch's extensive writings. This scholarly work investigates how Plutarch engages with earlier Greek literature, exploring intertextual links within his own corpus as well as his dialogue with other ancient authors, genres and literary traditions. By analysing intratextuality, interdiscursivity, intergenericity and intermateriality, the volume illuminates lesser-explored dimensions of Plutarch's literary production. Part of Brill's prestigious Plutarch Studies series (volume 5), this book offers researchers and classicists a methodologically sophisticated approach to understanding how Plutarch constructed meaning through textual interaction. Ideal for academic libraries, university courses on ancient rhetoric and philosophy, and scholars specialising in Greco-Roman literature and classical reception studies.
