THE IMAGES OF RHODOPE

Jordan Iliev
PhD St. in Thracology
Department of Ancient history, Thracian studies and mediaeval history

(Summary)
In the various encyclopedias cannot be found a detailed article on the spread of the name
Rhodope in antiquity. Most of them are rather limited, such as these of Jacobi (1835), Vulic (1920), Danov (1972) or von Bredow (2008); other are more detailed (but not quite exhaustive), as these of Detchev (1925) and Roscher (1965). The aim of the proposed paper
is this gap to be filled and all available (literature and visual) images to be systematized in
three groups: (1) literary heroines; (2) personification of the eponymous mountain in
Thrace and (3) the late Roman province with the same name.
