APPEL À CONTRIBUTION
NOUVELLE COLLECTION DES
SUPPLÉMENTS FRANCOPHONES DE LA REVUE PHOENIX
From Thierry Petit
À l'instar de la série anglophone, les volumes de cette nouvelle collection constitueront un complément aux travaux paraissant régulièrement dans le périodique Phoenix de la Société canadienne des études classiques. Ils visent à promouvoir l'étude des civilisations des mondes grec et romain, de leur héritage et de leur influence dans les civilisations actuelles.
Riches d'une longue tradition, le premier volume est paru en 1952, les suppléments de Phoenix comptent désormais une série exclusivement francophone consacrée tant aux monographies qu'aux ouvrages collectifs thématiques (mélanges, ateliers, colloques, etc.). Les études soumises pourront porter sur la littérature, les langues, l'histoire, la philosophie, la religion, la mythologie, les sciences, l'archéologie, l'histoire de l'art, l'architecture, ainsi que sur les civilisations grecque et romaine dans la plus large acception.
Par la création de cette nouvelle série, la Société canadienne des études classiques (Classical Association of Canada) veut rester fidèle à sa vocation et encourager les études classiques au Canada dans le respect du bilinguisme national.
