Description

Lisa Maurice examines screen portrayals of gods - covering Greco-Roman mythology, the Judeo-Christian God and Jesus - from the beginning of cinema to the present day. Focussing on the golden age of the Hollywood epic in the fifties and the twenty-first century second wave of big screen productions, she provides an over-arching picture that allows historical trends and developments to be demonstrated and contrasted. Engaging with recent scholarship on film, particularly film and theology as well as classical reception, she considers the presentation of these gods through examination of their physical and moral characteristics, as well as their interaction with the human world, against the background of the social contexts of each production.

Author Biography:

Lisa Maurice is Senior Lecturer in the Department of Classical Studies, Bar-Ilan University, Israel. She has published on ancient education, Plautine comedy and her research now primarily focuses on classical reception. She is the author of The Teacher in Ancient Rome (Lexington, 2013) and of many articles, and is the editor of three volumes in the Brill Metaforms series on the reception of the ancient world in popular culture.
