What both periods share is a view that the matter of Troy, with its tensions and contradictions, is relevant to their own contemporary world issues. Departing from more usual synchronic or diachronic approaches, this volume seeks to provide insights into how and why Troy matters by analysing a selection of Trojan afterlives across those two periods. Probing different cultural and national contexts, the volume's contributors compose a picture of multiple Troys - the Troy of destruction alongside the Troy of love, the Troy of heroism alongside that of bondage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrancesca Rayner is Associate Professor at the Universidade do Minho and Janice Valls-Russell is a retired researcher of France's National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS) at Université de Montpellier Paul Valéry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Francesca Rayner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1839540915\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781839540912\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Legenda\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/30\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 276\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.69d","brand":"Francesca Rayner","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48659728597247,"sku":"9781839540912","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/engaging-with-troy-francesca-rayner-9781839540912","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
