In the past there has always been little communication between Greco-Egyptian papyrology and Herculaneum papyrology. The studies concerning Herculaneum philosophical papyri, and those regarding Greco-Egyptian ones have always been artificially separated as though they were two essentially different kinds of papyri. Besides, no scientific journal specifically devoted to philosophical papyri as such has never existed so far. The goal of this editorial initiative is to fill in this gap of scholarship and to reconcile both scholarly traditions in one and the same venue. This will host critical editions of, as well as essays and discussions on, both Herculaneum and Greco-Egyptian philosophical papyri with a special focus on the various papyrological, bibliological, palaeographical, philological, historical and philosophical problems entailed by them. New ecdotic criteria will be adopted and the most recent advancements in the application of advanced techniques to papyri will be exploited.
