The contributions fall into two categories, each one reflecting Boegehold's diverse interests in classical studies: the first section includes essays on literary and philosophical topics, several of which pick up on the theme of "e;gestures"e;; the second section is representative of Boegehold's more specialised research in Greek epigraphy, history and law.
