Dear readers of AN Alert,
We have just published Petronian Society Newsletter 49 (2024) on the PSN website at https://ugp.rug.nl/psn/index.
The Petronian Society Newsletter or PSN began in 1970 and has been published every year since then. In the first issues the newsletter was concerned with just things Petronian, but it now covers the bibliography of all the Greek and Roman novels and fragments, and early Christian and Jewish novel-like narratives. The newsletter also publishes general, short notes on the ancient novels. PSN appears only on-line and can be downloaded by any interested persons. The first Petronian Society Newsletter was published in 1970 by Gareth Schmeling.

We’re excited to invite you to a roundtable titled “Organizing an Ancient Narrative Affiliated Group,” hosted during the upcoming SCS Annual Meeting. This event is a unique opportunity for scholars and students of the ancient narrative and ancient novel to collaborate on creating a dedicated affiliated group within the SCS.
Evelien Bracke and Koen De Temmerman warmly invite you to a symposium on ancient narrative and its reception, organized in tribute to the late Prof. Saiichiro Nakatani (1972-2023).
Speakers have been invited to present a scholarly paper on a topic related to Prof. Nakatani’s work on ancient fiction, its reception, or the reception of Classics in Japan more broadly. This symposium aims to commemorate Prof. Nakatani and celebrate his work and contributions to these fields of study.
The symposium will take place on 14th March 2025, from 10am to 4pm CET. The event will take place live at Ghent University, but online attendees are also welcome.
To attend the symposium, please register by Friday 14th February 2025 by emailing evelien.bracke@ugent.be. Please mention whether you would like to attend in person or online.

Dear friends, colleagues, readers of Ancient Narrative-Alert,
I hope that my warm greetings and brief message from cold Scotland find all of you well and safe. Although the AN-Alert circulation list does not normally advertise new books on the ancient novel, I am most grateful to Roelf Barkhuis for allowing me to share with you from this forum my excitement when I received through Amazon post this morning a copy of Petronius’ Satyricon and Seneca’s Apocolocyntosis, edited and translated by Gareth Schmeling for the Loeb Classical Library series (Cambridge, Mass. and London, December 2020) (https://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog.php?isbn=9780674997370). I am thrilled to have this volume, I look forward to reading it, and I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude to dear Gareth for decades of inspiring work on dear Petronius. Subscribers to this list may already know about this new book; I feel sure they would like to join me in congratulating Gareth on its publication.
With my best wishes, Costas

The ancient novels are populated not just by people but also by objects. While individual studies, particularly on ekphrasis, have examined some of the uses of physical objects in ancient novels (Bartsch 1989; Holzmeister 2014) or the depiction of scenes from ancient novels on objects (e.g. Bruneau 1965), there have been few systematic examinations of the presence, function, and interpretations of material objects in and about ancient prose fiction more broadly. Notable exceptions include Magdeleine Clo's 2014 thesis, Les objets dans le roman grec, and the 2016 Rethymnon International Conference on the Ancient Novel on "Material Culture and the Ancient Novel" (Oct. 14-15), both of which have demonstrated the potential of examining objects within ancient novels as tools of characterization, plot devices, and symbols, but the topic has thus far received little attention in the United States.

How did the Greeks and Romans experience and describe their spectacles and material artefacts in the Imperial period? Were they concerned only with ‘de-coding’ these artefacts and performances to show off their cultural intellect or did they frame a more sensuous, embodied encounter with them? Were they as interested in form as in content, in the body as in the brain?
