Greek magic papyri in their context. MINECO-FFI2014-57517-P

Study of Greek magic papyri from an individualized perspective (papyrus editing and commentary and specific texts) as well as from a transverse one, gathered in the variety of erotic spells, magical botany, relations with schools of thought, and synthesis elements of the religious area. The first aspect begins not only from the need of revising the editions when used (especially Presidendanz's and revisions), but also addressing each papyrus as a copy that deserves a specific analysis. The second aspect tries to delve into the knowledge of common aspects in the papyri connected to the historical, social and cultural context.
