W trzecim tomie Szkiców o antyku, zatytułowanym Hermeneutyka wina, kierujemy uwagę na nieustanną obecność wina w kulturze sródziemnomorskiej. W poszczególnych artykułach publikacji pragniemy przybliżyć rozmaite aspekty wina oraz ich związek z konkretnym miejscem i czasem. Zamieszczone artykuły mają charakter interdyscyplinarny i przyczynią się do refleksji nad fenomenem wina jako zjawiska bardziej złożonego od literatury. Hermeneutyka wina jest również wyrazem szacunku oraz sympatii dla Profesora Mariana Szarmacha i wyraża wdzięczność za Jego wielkoduszność, której doświadczamy w Katedrze Filologii Klasycznej Uniwersytetu Śląskiego w Katowicach i nie tylko.
