Marco Benoît Carbone is Senior Lecturer in Intercultural Studies at Brunel University, UK. He has received his PhD and worked as a Teaching Assistant at University College London, UK. He specialises in ethnographic methods of social research.

What is different, and exciting, about Carbone’s work is the movement beyond the text and museum to include local geography and modern culture. The book will be of interest to a wide scholarly audience, including those in classics, anthropology, history, or literary criticism. It is a fine addition to the series Imagines: Classical Receptions in the Visual and Performing Arts.
