“…Harvey 1999: 206-210 provides an excellent bibliography; more recent studies on particular aspects of the work include Calderón Dorda 2005 (funerary lexicon); Skountakis 2006 (Plutarch's criticism of rituals and customs, including comparison with epigraphy; cf. also Strubbe 1998); Soares 2008 (comparison with the Lives); Schorn 2009 (sociocultural context, specifically on crying); Roskam 2011a (scarcity of literary quotations); Xenophontos 2016: 47-48 (Plutarch's ideas on childhood), 56-59 (on motherhood), 114-116 (on marriage).

Plutarch of Chaeronea (c. 45-120 CE) is the most prolific and influential moral philosopher in the Platonic tradition. This book is a fundamental reappraisal of Plutarch’s ethical thought. It shows how Plutarch based his ethics on his particular interpretation of Plato’s cosmology: our quest for the good life should start by considering the good cosmos in which we live. The practical consequences of this cosmological foundation permeate various domains of Greco-Roman life: the musician, the organiser of a drinking party, and the politician should all be guided by cosmology. After exploring these domains, this book offers in-depth interpretations of two works which can only be fully understood by paying attention to cosmological aspects: 'Dialogue on Love' and 'On Tranquillity of Mind'.

Barbara Borg 10 the event, to provide papers fitting the special scope and idea of the book. Special thanks go to Frieda Klotz for improving the English of some of the contributions, including my own. The editor is also grateful to the all museums, institutions, and individuals which have supplied photographs. Since it is not only scholarly input that makes a project successful, I would also like to thank those who helped organise the practical side of the conference, in particular Emanuel Mayer, and especially Britta Bock, Ivana and Andrej Petrovic as well as Julian Duvernoy for carefully reading the proofs, indexing, adapting bibliographical references to a common standard and carrying out similarly demanding tasks. Angelos Chaniotis and Diamantis Pangiotopoulos are gratefully acknowledged for having made part of this logistical support available to me. The book is among the first supplementary volumes to the new periodical Millennium, and both start their joint appearance in autumn 2004. I am very grateful to the editors, in particular to Peter von Moellendorf and Helmut Krasser for accepting the publication for this series. Finally, I owe special thanks to Dr. Sabine Vogt, Peter Franzkowiak and Angelika Hermann from de Gruyter for their support and indicious treatment of all matters concerning the actual production of this book.

L’‘epitafio’ di Argo. Osservazioni sul lessico funerario in Hom. Od. 17.291-327

in Hom. Od. 17.291-327, l’episodio del riconoscimento di Odisseo da parte del cane Argo. Nei luoghi analizzati, la dizione omerica sembra essere debitrice di tradizionali formulari espressivi funerari e influenzare a sua volta alcuni carmi epigrafici di epoca successiva. Un’attenzione particolare viene dedicata a due passaggi significativi. Al v. 312 il cane è presentato come il sema vivente del padrone, mentre riguardo ai vv. 326-327 si avanza l’ipotesi che potessero essere percepiti dai fruitori come un ‘epitafio orale’ di Argo: vi si riconoscono un uso del verbo ἰδεῖν simile a quello reperibile in numerosi epigrammi funerari e altri elementi tematici e formali caratteristici delle iscrizioni tombali, analizzati nello studio.
