David BLANK is Professor of the Faculty of Classics at UCLA (University of California Los Angeles). His interests lie in ancient philosophy, rhetoric, grammar and philology. He has worked extensively on ancient grammatical texts and their philosophical presuppositions, and this has him me to a broad interest in the relation between philosophical and technical studies and uses of language and literature in antiquity. He has also written on a range of Greek and Latin philosophical texts, from the Presocratics to the late Platonist and Aristotelian commentator Ammonius, paying particular attention to the ways in which their texts work and what it means to each of them to do philosophy. Much of his attention now focuses on the Epicurean papyri from Herculaneum, especially those of Philodemus’ Rhetoric, and he is editing several books of that work for the Oxford series of The Aesthetic Works of Philodemus.
