Greek myth networks and community crises in antiquity Investigate the impacts of community change and social crises on mythic storytelling in antiquity, making use of the digital dataset MANTO.

I’ve got two PhD scholarships for domestic students at Macquarie University. Topics must be related to Greek myth in contexts of communal crisis in antiquity. Always happy to chat about ideas! www.mq.edu.au/research/phd...

GitHub - bnagy/nagy-thesis-2025: PhD thesis: Computational approaches to Latin literature PhD thesis: Computational approaches to Latin literature - bnagy/nagy-thesis-2025

I finally got around to open-sourcing the full build for my PhD thesis: github.com/bnagy/nagy-t... which may be of minor interest to some people.

All but one of the papers are published elsewhere, but it has some interesting LaTeX tricks, and I enjoyed writing the conclusion a great deal.

MANTO: A Born-Digital LOD Resource for Greek Myth | Digital Classics Online MANTO ist eine LOD-Ressource, die sowohl die Interaktionen von Menschen, Orten und Objekten innerhalb der griechischen Mythologie als auch die Auswirkungen dieser mythischen Wesen auf die historische Landschaft des Mittelmeerraums modelliert. Die Daten basieren vollständig auf Aussagen aus antiken Quellen. In diesem Artikel stellen wir die Ziele und Erfolge dieses Projekts vor. Wir beschreiben die grundlegende Ontologie und die Methoden der Datenerhebung, einige Möglichkeiten, wie die resultierenden Daten abgefragt und visualisiert werden können, sowie die Beziehungen zu anderen digitalen Projekten im Bereich der Altertumswissenschaften. Außerdem stellen wir eine Fallstudie zur Verwendung der Daten bei der Visualisierung der Lage und Bewegung mythischer Relikte vor, die von Pausanias beschrieben wurden.

Hot off the press! Overview of MANTO’s aims and ambitions just published in Digital Classics Online, with analytical examples looking at mythic relics preserved in Imperial Greece url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/YkSnC6XQ68...

Story-Shaped Things Historians tell stories about the past. This philosopher thinks those stories are often wrong--and dangerous.

"[Rosenberg] insists we should avoid relying on stories as a source of truth about the past. To be safe, and to advance human knowledge, we should engage in analytic reasoning instead—the kind of reasoning that he believes is the province of scientists, which often contradicts our intuitions."

et voila! Online open access via the MQ Waranara library: ‘Roman archaeology with agencements,’ a thesis that looks to assemblage thinking in order to both unpack how social life was (and is) always more-the-human and to enhance the concept of the Roman army as a community.
