Dunne, Finley Peter.
MR. DOOLEY'S OPINIONS.
pp. vi, 212. Decorated title page. Uncut. 8vo. Original full green cloth binding. Gilt stamped spine. Finley Peter Dunne (1867-1936) was an American humorist and writer from Chicago. His fictional 'Mr. Dooley' expounded upon political and social issues of the day from his South Side Chicago Irish pub and he spoke with the thick verbiage and accent of an Irish immigrant from County Roscommon. Dunne's sly humor and political acumen even won the support of President Theodore Roosevelt, who was a frequent target of Mr. Dooley's barbs. Indeed Dunne's sketches became so popular and such a litmus test of public opinion that they were read each week at cabinet meetings in Roosevelt's White House. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! HUMOR 3

Fisher, Nick & Hans Van Wees (Eds. )
COMPETITION IN THE ANCIENT WORLD
Very light creasing along top edge to DJ. ; Part I: Competition in comparative perspective: 1. Rivalry in history: an introduction (Hans van Wees) 2. Fame and prizes: competition and war in the Neo-Assyrian empire (Karen Radner) 3. Levels and strategies of competition in the Aztec Empire (Frances F. Berdan) Part II: Competition in Greece: 4. Ancient Greek competition - a modern construct? (Christoph Ulf) 5. Conflict and community in the Iliad (William Allan and Douglas Cairns) 6. Peer-polity interaction and cultural competition in sixth-century Greece (Sara Forsdyke) 7. Competitive delights: the social effects of the expanded programme of contests in post-Kleisthenic Athens (Nick Fisher) Part III: Competition in Rome: 8. Lotteries and elections: containing elite competition in Venice and Rome (Henrik Mouritsen) 9. Keeping up with the Joneses: competitive display within the Roman villa landscape (Hannah Platts) 10. Competitiveness and anti-competitiveness in Philostratus’ Lives of the Sophists (Jason Konig); 320 pages; Ancient peoples, like modern, spent much of their lives engaged in and thinking about competitions: both organised competitions with rules, audiences and winners, such as Olympic and gladiatorial games, and informal, indefinite, often violent, competition for fundamental goals such as power, wealth and honour. The varied papers in this book form a case for viewing competition for superiority as a major force in ancient history, including the earliest human societies and the Assyrian and Aztec empires. Papers on Greek history explore the idea of competitiveness as peculiarly Greek, the intense and complex quarrel at the heart of Homers Iliad, and the importance of formal competitions in the creation of new political and social identities in archaic Sicyon and classical Athens. Papers on the Roman world shed fresh light on Republican elections, through a telling parallel from renaissance Venice, on modes of competitive display of wealth and power evident in elite villas in Italy in the imperial period, and on the ambiguities in the competitive self-representations of athletes, sophists and emperors.

GREEK SPORT AND SOCIAL STATUS
Slight sticker residue to DJ. ; From the ancient Olympic games to the World Series and the World Cup, athletic achievement has always conferred social status. In this collection of essays, a noted authority on ancient sport discusses how Greek sport has been used to claim and enhance social status, both in antiquity and in modern times. Mark Golden explores a variety of ways in which sport provided a route to social status. In the first essay, he explains how elite horsemen and athletes tried to ignore the important roles that jockeys, drivers, and trainers played in their victories, as well as how female owners tried to rank their equestrian achievements above those of men and other women. In the next essay, Golden looks at the varied contributions that slaves made to sport, despite its use as a marker of free, Greek status. In the third essay, he evaluates the claims made by gladiators in the Greek east that they be regarded as high-status athletes and asserts that gladiatorial spectacle is much more like Greek sport than scholars today usually admit. In the final essay, Golden critiques the accepted accounts of ancient and modern Olympic history, arguing that attempts to raise the status of the modern games by stressing their links to the ancient ones are misleading. He concludes that the contemporary movement to call a truce in world conflicts during the Olympics is likewise based on misunderstandings of ancient Greek traditions. ; Fordyce W.
