A recurring and significant theme in ancient Greek literature is that of returns and returning, marked by the Greek word nostos. This volume offers an interdisciplinary exploration of nostos in ancient Greek culture, shedding light on perceptions of home and displacement, and on the foundation myths that shaped ancient Greek identity.
