Abstract
It would be hard to overestimate the significance of Classical mythology for the literature, drama, music, pictorial arts, emblematics, and festivity culture of the Renaissance. The volume presents the proceedings of a colloquium organized by the Wolfenbüttel Work Group on Renaissance Research titled "Renaissance Culture and Classical Mythology" (Herzog August Library, 7-10 October 1996, with B. Guthmüller in the chair). The aim of the colloquium was first to cast light on some new and lesser known aspects of myth in Renaissance culture, and second to provide a forum for new interpretations and evaluations on a number of controversial issues.
