[vc_row][vc_column][vc_tta_accordion style=”outline” shape=”square” color=”juicy-pink” active_section=”1″][vc_tta_section title=”Description” tab_id=”description”][vc_column_text]Greek philosophers cultivated and developed dialogue as a literary genre, and considered lively conversation a method of exposition, research, analysis of ideas, as well as a valid way of building arguments. According to Aristotle (fr. 65, 72 Rose, ap<\/i>. D.L. 3.48, 8.57, 9.25), Zeno was the inventor (\u03b5\u1f51\u03c1\u03b7\u03c4\u03ae\u03c2) of dialectics and the first to write dialogues (Test<\/i>. 14 Diels-Kranz). Testimonies also tell us about a dialogue entitled\u00a0\u03a4\u03a1\u03a9\u0399\u039a\u039f\u03a3\u00a0<\/i>(fr. 5) written by Hippias (Test<\/i>. 2 Diels-Kranz), of which only the title and a very brief summary are preserved (cf. Philostr.\u00a0VS\u00a0<\/i>1.11). In fact, Plato\u2019s forty-two dialogues (authentic and apocryphal) are testimony to the consolidation of a literary genre, a form of reasoning, and exercise of philosophy, which had a notable impact on later philosophical works. Indeed, the staging of characters with different points of view facilitates the treatment of all sorts of philosophical and non-philosophical topics, as we can see in authors such as Cicero, Seneca, Plutarch, Lucian, Athenaeus, Boethius, Erasmus, Fray Luis de Le\u00f3n, Luis Vives, Diderot, Lessing, etc.<\/p>\n

The construction and elaboration of discourse by means of dialogue are not exclusive to philosophy. That exchanging game between characters was also present in tragedy and comedy, since the performance of speech and dialogue is inherent to drama. Other literary genres show elements of dialogue that not only lend liveliness to the action, but interrogate, argue, and thereby promote reflection on human behavior and nature, through identification between readers or listeners and characters. In the first book of the\u00a0Iliad<\/i>, Chryses, priest of Apollo, tries to persuade the Achaeans to free his daughter and faces the vehement opposition of Agamemnon. The archaic poets, especially the iambographers, exploited this literary device to highlight their emotions, even when this device reached its splendor in the theater of the classical period. Likewise, historians reproduced dialogues to lend authenticity to their historical narratives and rhetoricians also made use of dialogue as an expressive resource. Christians and the learned people of later times, assimilated dialogue as an instrument of promoting moral and theological principles. In this way, dialogue became the form of pedagogical instruction par excellence<\/i>.<\/p>\n

The expressive wealth of dialogue presents itself in numerous artistic and intellectual ways. The encounters between emotional and aesthetic resources, pedagogical and didactic purposes, as well as between claims of objectivity and scientific rigor, are fertile ground for the transdisciplinary inquiry characteristic of classical studies. This invites a diversity and multiplicity of perspectives for contributions in relation to ancient authors and their works. Investigating the history of dialogue since antiquity also allows us to consider it as an archetype for the exchange of opinions and ideas. This is suitable for dealing with current problems that increasingly require the willingness to negotiate and rethink ideas and convictions, empathize with the feelings of others, and build agreements based on the examination of opposing arguments and points of view.<\/p>\n

In addition, research on dialogue has been one of the most precious interests for the professor honored with this conference, Giselle von der Walde Uribe. She developed most of her teaching and research activity at the University of Los Andes and her interest in this subject is reflected in her papers and book chapters on this subject: \u201cEl di\u00e1logo entre las ciencias y las humanidades. Ciencia, Tecnolog\u00eda y Sociedad\u201d,\u00a0Texto y Contexto<\/i>, 20 (1993), 57-64; \u201c\u00bfQu\u00e9 tipo de mimesis es el di\u00e1logo plat\u00f3nico?\u201d, in Jorge Rojas (ed.),\u00a0II Jornadas Filol\u00f3gicas: Jorge P\u00e1ramo, In Memoriam<\/i>, Bogot\u00e1: Universidad Nacional-Universidad de los Andes,<\/i>\u00a02004, 137-150; \u201cEl di\u00e1logo plat\u00f3nico y las cr\u00edticas a la escritura en el Fedro\u201d, in Jorge Rojas (ed.),\u00a0I Jornadas Filol\u00f3gicas In Memoriam Juozas Zaranka<\/i>, Bogot\u00e1: Universidad Nacional de Colombia,\u00a0<\/i>2003, 73-81; and \u201cFormas del callar y formas del filosofar en los di\u00e1logos de madurez de Plat\u00f3n\u201d, en Sergio Ariza y Catalina Gonz\u00e1lez (eds.),\u00a0Boul\u00ea.

Thus, for this tenth Conference on Classical Philology, we invite all scholars of classical culture and its reception to submit proposals in one of the following suggested thematic areas (the list is not exhaustive):<\/p>\n
