| dc.description.abstract | In this volume are collected twenty papers that were delivered at the Eighth International Conference on Orality and Literacy in the Ancient World, held in the study centre Soeterbeeck in Ravenstein, the Nether-lands, in July 2–6, 2008, and hosted by the Classics Department of the Radboud University Nijmegen and the Department of Ancient History of Utrecht University. In order to create a consistent volume, we had to make certain editorial decisions. Names of ancient authors and titles of texts are, as much as possible, abbreviated in accordance with the list in The Oxford Classical Dictionary, 3rd ed. (1996) xxix–liv. In the bibliographies, which follow the individual contributions, titles of jour-nals are either written out or abbreviated according to the list providedinL’AnnéePhilologique:Bibliographiecritiqueet analytiquede l’antiquité Gréco-Latine. All Greek and Latin have been translated by the authors of the articles, unless noted otherwise. | en_US |
