Examines aesthetic and ontological questions raised by Greco-Roman myths of human metamorphosis into non-human musical beings. Placing the myths within their ancient intellectual contexts, it reads them in dialogue with contemporary questions about what it means to be human. Aimed at classicists, musicologists, and scholars of the posthumanities.
