Over the past two decades, films and television series have reinvented the peplum genre. In doing so, they have also reinvented Antiquity itself, or rather, have continued to reinvent it, for this process of reimagining is an ongoing one. This volume examines these transformations, their cultural impact, and their transmedia dimensions.
