  • "What lays behind the present edition, is more than a motto. First of all, the twenty essays selected for this collective contribution came from participants of the Conference “ ‘In thy arms I lost myself’ - Images, Perceptions and Productions in and of Antiquity” (hence the name of the present book), held in Lisbon by the end of 2019, and to be described as an influential event at an international level, where recognised academicians were accompanied by young researchers. So, this was a Conference that brought together Antiquity historians, as well as archaeologists, Egyptologists, Orientalists and Classicists, differences overturned by the common issue of the reception of the ancient past, deeply rooted in cultural legacy, standing in images or representation or just hard science."
    - Manuel F.S. Patrocínio, Assistant Professor, University of Évora, Portugal
