This volume applies a narratological approach to emotions in a wide range of texts and genres. It seeks to analyze ways in which emotions such as anger, fear, pity, joy, love and sadness are portrayed. Furthermore, using recent insights from affective narratology, it studies ways in which ancient narratives evoke emotions in their readers. The volume is dedicated to Irene de Jong for her groundbreaking research into the narratology of ancient literature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The editors set themselves an ambitious undertaking: to provide further insights, in the form of an anthology, into the “vast and fascinating subject” of emotions. This volume does not only meet our expectations but goes well beyond them. Both editors and contributors have adopted a multifaceted approach, which makes it suitable both for experts and non-experts. (...) The papers in this book all contribute to the volume’s purpose: to honor De Jong’s career and enhance her studies. Although a lengthy read, more than 750 pages in total, the text runs smoothly; the wise chronological division adopted by the editors gently walks readers through centuries, without overwhelming them.\"   Giulia Maria Paoletti in BMCR2023.07.04\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgements  Notes on Contributors    Introduction: The Narratology of Emotions in Ancient Literature   Mathieu de Bakker, Baukje van den Berg and Jacqueline Klooster    Part 1 Archaic Epic    1 A Narratology of the Emotions: Method, Temporality, and Anger in Homer’s Iliad   Ahuvia Kahane    2 Narrative and Emotion in the Iliad: Andromache and Helen   Angus Bowie    3 Fear and Loathing at the Xanthus   Evert van Emde Boas    4 Metaleptic Apostrophe in Homer: Emotion and Immersion   Rutger Allan    5 In Mortal Danger: The Emotions of Two Fighters in the Iliad   Marina Coray and Martha Krieter    6 Poseidon’s Anger in the Odyssey   Sebastiaan van der Mije    7 Emotions and Politeness in Homer’s Odyssey   Robert Kirstein    8 Emotionally Reunited: Laertes and Odysseus in Odyssey 24   Bruno Currie    9 Love and Anger: Emotions in Hesiod   Hugo Koning    Part 2 Archaic Epic and Beyond    10 The Text as Labyrinth   Françoise Létoublon    11 Narrating Pity in Greek Epic, Lyric, Tragedy, and Beyond   Patrick Finglass    12 Deixis in Teichoscopy as a Marker of Emotional Urgency   Albert Rijksbaron    13 Exercises in Anger Management: From Achilles to Arginusae   Christopher Pelling    14 Sunt lacrimae rerum: Emotions at the Deaths of Troilus, Priam, and Astyanax in Athenian Black-Figure Vase-Painting   Geralda Jurriaans-Helle    15 What the Greeks Left Us: Perspectivation as a Tool in the Pursuit of (Emotional) Knowledge   Willie van Peer    Part 3 Early Lyric, Tragedy, and Biblical Poetry    16 Passion versus Performance in Sappho Fragments 1 and 31   André Lardinois    17 Prometheus Bound as ‘Epic’ Tragedy and Its Narratology of Emotion   Anton Bierl    18 Self-Description of Emotions in Ancient Greek Drama: A First Exploration   Gerry Wakker    19 Retelling the War of Troy: Tragedy, Emotions, and Catharsis   Sofia Frade    20 Body and Speech as the Site of Emotions in Biblical Narrative   Ilse Müllner    Part 4 Greek Prose of the Classical Period    21 Herodotean Emotions: Some Aspects   Richard Rutherford    22 Herodotus, Historian of Emotions   Mathieu de Bakker    23 Emotions in Thucydides: Revisiting the Final Battle in Syracuse Harbour   Tim Rood    24 The Dark Side of a Narrative: The Power of Emotions, Digressions and Historical Causes in Hellenica Oxyrhynchia   Antonis Tsakmakis    25 Cyrus’ Tears: An Essay in Affective Narratology and Socratic History   Luuk Huitink    26 The Joys and Sorrows of the Argument: Emotions and Emotional Involvement in Plato’s Narratives of Philosophical Reasoning   Margalit Finkelberg    27 The Arousal of Interest in Plato’s Protagoras and Gorgias   Michael Lloyd    28 Socratic Emotions   Kathryn A.
