The seminar was devoted to the deciphering and study of three pieces in dactylic hexameters by Dioscorus of Aphrodite (a 6th century poet known thanks to the discovery of his archives and library in 1905), which in their own way pose the problem of the relationship between classical and Christian cultures [1].
