Summary
How did threats perceived as acute influence the political thought of those they affected in the ancient world? Taking Hesiod's Works and Days as an example, Matthias Becker explores this question and develops his own model of literary threat communication based on current theoretical approaches that deliver new methodological impulses for researching ancient texts.
