This volume contains the collected papers of Albert Henrichs on the history of classical scholarship. The longstanding interest of Albert Henrichs with the traditions of classical philology brought him to write essays on a number of individual scholars and works, from Friedrich Gottlieb Welcker and Otto Jahn through Friedrich Nietzsche and Ulrich von Wilamowitz-Moellendorff to Karl Kerényi and Reinhold Merkelbach. The changing practices of scholarship, the defining debates and the stakes at play in marking the boundaries that separated the centre from the periphery of Greek philology were revisited through numerous case studies. All the issues of Greek religion, literature and culture pursued by Henrichs in his other work are studied from a reflexive, second-order perspective in these papers.

Historically, all societies have used comparison to analyze cultural difference through the interaction of religion, power, and translation. When comparison is a self-reflective practice, it can be seen as a form of comparatism. Many scholars are concerned in one way or another with the practice and methods of comparison, and the need for a cognitively robust relativism is an integral part of a mature historical self-placement. This volume looks at how different theories and practices of writing and interpretation have developed at different times in different cultures and reconsiders the specificities of modern comparative approaches within a variety of comparative moments. The idea is to reconsider the specificities, the obstacles, and the possibilities of modern comparative approaches in history and anthropology through a variety of earlier and parallel comparative horizons. Particular attention is given to the exceptional role of Athens and Jerusalem in shaping the Western understanding of cultural difference.Contributors are: Matei Candea, Philippe Descola, Renaud Gagné, Simon Goldhill, Anthony Grafton, Caroline Humphrey, Dmitri Levitin, Geoffrey Lloyd, Joan-Pau Rubiés, Jonathan Sheehan, Marilyn Strathern, Guy Stroumsa, and Phiroze Vasunia.
