Dear Valeria,

What we are witnessing today is the result (but not the end-result) of a long process. The volume captures a good moment in the integration of new technologies in the conduct and dissemination of classical research, positioning us to enhance our capacity to reconstruct and understand the ancient classical world. There is so much going on on so many fronts, some of it with roots in the past, some coming in from complementary disciplines and altering our expectations of ourselves and our subject. It is like listening to a rumbling volcano—knowing that the 'eruptions' are changing the landscape.

Best regards,

Elaine Matthews
