Theory for Classics

Theory for Classics: A student’s guide, is a clear and concise handbook to

the key connections between Classical Studies and critical theory in the

twentieth century. Louise A. Hitchcock looks at the way classics has been

engaged across a number of disciplines.

Beginning with four foundational figures—Freud, Marx, Nietzsche, and

Saussure—Hitchcock goes on to provide guided introductions of the major

theoretical thinkers of the past century, from Adorno to Williams. Each

entry offers biographical, theoretical, and bibliographical information

along with a discussion of each figure’s relevance to Classical Studies and

suggestions for future research.

Brisk, thoughtful, provocative, and engaging, this will be an essential first

volume for anyone interested in the intersection between theory and

Classical Studies today.

Louise A. Hitchcock is a Senior Lecturer in the Centre for Classics and

Archaeology at the University of Melbourne. She is a former Fellow of the

American School of Classical Studies in Athens, senior Fulbright Fellow in

Cyprus, and ECA Fellow and Visiting Annual Professor at the Albright

Institute in Jerusalem. She has published extensively on theoretical

approaches to Bronze Age architecture and archaeology.
