Landscape can spark armed conflict, dictate its progress and influence the affective experience of its participants. At the same time, warfare transforms landscapes, both physically and in the way in which they are later perceived and experienced. Landscapes of War in Greek and Roman Literature breaks new ground in exploring Greco-Roman literary responses to this complex interrelationship. Drawing on current ideas in cognitive theory, memory studies, ecocriticism and other fields, its individual chapters engage with such questions as: how did the Greeks and Romans represent the effects of war on the natural world? What distinctions did they see between spaces of war and other landscapes? How did they encode different experiences of war in literary representations of landscape? How was memory tied to landscape in wartime or its aftermath? And in what ways did ancient war landscapes shape modern experiences and representations of war? In four sections, contributors explore combatants' perception and experience of war landscapes, the relationship between war and the natural world, symbolic and actual forms of territorial control in a military context, and war landscapes as spaces of memory. Several contributions focus especially on modern intersections of war, landscape and the classical past"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Classical literature $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a War in literature. 650 0 $a Landscapes in literature. 650 7 $a Classical literature $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00863509 650 7 $a Landscapes in literature $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01899802 650 7 $a War in literature $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01170505 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 700 1 $a Reitz-Joosse, Bettina, $e editor. 700 1 $a Makins, Marian W., $e editor. 700 1 $a Mackie, C.
