This book offers an in-depth analysis of the Ampelus episode which covers books 10, 11 and 12 of Nonnus' of Panopolis Dionysiaca (5th century AD), the last Greek epic poem of antiquity. With the character of Ampelus, Dionysus' favourite satyr, the author reflects his poetic concept which is committed to a new, Dionysian form and style of the epic genre. In his narration of Ampelus' death and transformation into the grapevine, Nonnus plays with the traditional conventions of epic genre and creates hiw own ways of literary expression.

The volume shows the manifold themes of Greek poetry in Late Antiquity. Pagan and Christian concepts merge in the works of Nonnus of Panopolis and in the Ekphrasis of John of Gaza, the poems of George of Pisidia are read against the background of late antique philosophy and the autobiographies of Gregory of Nazianzus as literary forms of expression. The ekphrastic narrative techniques of Quintus Smyrnaeus and the composition of characters in Colluthus are analyzed, and Lycophron is proved as another source of Nonnus’ Dionysiaka. The contributions also deal with mythological characters, cyclopes and elephants, and late antique epigrammatic poetry is contextualized in the cultural and literary environment of the time.

Nonnus of Panopolis in Upper-Egypt is the author of the 48 books of the last large scale mythological epic in antiquity, the Dionysiaca. The same author also wrote an epic poem on the life and times of Jesus Christ according to St John’s Gospel. Nonnus has an outstanding position in ancient literature being at the same time a pagan and a Christian author, living in a time when Christianity was common in the Roman empire, while pagan culture and traditional world views were still maintained. The volume is designed to cover literary, cultural and religious aspects of Nonnus’ poetry as well as to highlight the social and educational background of both the Dionysiaca and the Paraphrasis of the Gospel of St. John.

Kröll, Nicole, "Bild der Erde, Abbild des Himmels. Die Stadt Tyros in den Dionysiaka des Nonnos von Panopolis".
Wiener Humanistische Blätter 64 (2023), 7-29.
The paper examines the poetic techniques of describing the city of Tyre within the multifaceted narrative of Nonnus' Dionysiaca. What role does the city episode play within the narrative of the wine god? What is the significance of the religious roots of the city, namely the cult of Melqart-Heracles, in the Nonnian epic written around the middle of the 5th century CE by a presumably Christian author? The Tyre episode is explured within the narrative richness of the Nonnian oeuvre and within the context of late antique pagan and Christian identities and thus is located within Hellenic culture in the Near East.

Abstract:
The contribution seeks to answer the question whether Nonnus sketches the characters who appear already in Iliad and Odyssey as a Homeric blueprint or rather transforms them into Dionysian shape-shifters in order to meet the special requirements of his own narrative code. Therefore, Athena’s character traits are dealt with, which can be traced both on the level of the narration realised by the narrator himself and on the secondary level of character speech.
