Sherman Josepha selected and retold by
Rachel the Clever and Other Jewish Folktales
Little Rock Arkansas U.S.A.: August House Pub Inc 1993. Book. Near-Fine. Trade Paperback. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Very-nice clean copy. NO remainder marks or price clippings. Tight spine - Bright pages. Stated First Edition. NO writing marks or tears inside book. Nicely illustrated. NO writing marks or tears inside book. 171 pages. - Although the 46 tales in this collection are as varied as the countries or regions from which they come Poland central Asia and Morocco for example nearly all of them have been carried and passed on by immigrants to America. As a result this collection is a world tour between two covers but not at the expense of the unifying element common to these stories: their uniquely Jewish flavor an emphasis on doing the right thing on surviving by cleverness and kindness and on the need for keeping . From The Critics Library Journal Sherman author of A Sampler of Jewish-American Folklore August House 1992 has brought together a treasure of stories--46 tales from places as disparate as Poland central Asia and Morocco. All are one or two pages in length perfect for reading aloud and have been passed on by immigrants to their children. The stories are meant for children but their freshness and clarity will find them an adult audience as well. The Jewish emphasis on doing the right thing on surviving by cleverness and kindness and on maintaining a good sense of humor at all costs is seen throughout the collection. There are magical tales such as ``The Sorcerer's Apprentice'' and ``The Dancing Demons'' clever tales such as ``The Slave Who Was a Dectective'' and the title story where Rachel the Clever outwits the the king. Sherman's retelling is masterful making these delightful stories available to a new generation. Highly recommended.-- Molly Abromowitz Silver Spring Md. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall.

Shive David
NAMING ACHILLES
Oxford University Press. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1987. Hardcover. 0195048601 . Light shelfwear. Foxing to textblock. ; 0.75 x 8.56 x 5.63 Inches; 204 pages; F. A. Wolf set the "Homeric Question" nearly two centuries ago when he argued convincingly that "Homer" was a non-literate bard incapable of composing and performing the monumental Iliad and Odyssey as we have them. In the long debate that has followed one of the most prominent figures has been Milman Parry who argued that there was great economy and extension of formulaic diction in the Homeric poems that the poet was in effect highly constrained by this formulaic diction and by the strict metrical requirements of the oral tradition. He concluded that only a non-literate bard could have composed such epics under these constraints. In Naming Achilles David Shive takes issue with Parry's findings. Engaging in a close analysis of the hero Achilles as he is named in all the grammatical cases he has concluded that Parry's thesis does not hold that there is more extension and less economy than Milman Parry claimed to find. Homer's poetry can be seen as more creative less restricted and in fact does not differ markedly from subsequent literary work. . Oxford University Press hardcover

In the course of his investigations Sitchin also became convinced of the veracity of the Bible. Sitchin�s expeditions take readers from the Yucatan peninsula to the isle of Crete to ancient Egypt and the lands of the Bible as he explores the links between the Old World and the New World. His adventurous exploits reveal archaeological cover-ups concerning Olmec origins in Mexico and ancient UFO artifacts in Turkey. Other quests send him through the holy sites of Jerusalem Jordan Syria and Lebanon in search of evidence of extraterrestrial gods in the artifacts and murals of these ancient civilizations. The Earth Chronicles Expeditions is a masterful historical and archaeological adventure into the origins of mankind and a �must� guidebook for all who wish to visit the numerous sites and museums covered in this book.

Slater Philip E.
The Glory of Hera : Greek Mythology and the Greek Family
Princeton NJ: Princeton University Press 1992 The ancient Athenians were "quarrelsome as friends treacherous as neighbors brutal as masters faithless as servants shallow as lovers--all of which was in part redeemed by their intelligence and creativity." Thus writes Philip Slater in this classic work on narcissism and family relationships in fifth-century Athenian society. Exploring a rich corpus of Greek mythology and drama he argues that the personalities and social behavior of the gods were neurotic and that their neurotic conditions must have mirrored the family life of the people who perpetuated their myths. The author traces the issue of narcissism to mother-son relationships focusing primarily on the literary representation of Hera and the male gods and showing how it related to devalued women raising boys in an ambitious society dominated by men. "The role of homosexuality in society fatherless families working mothers women's status and violence male pride and male bonding--all these find their place in Slater's analysis so honestly and carefully addressed that we see our own societal dilemmas reflected in archaic mythic narratives all the more clearly." 513p. bibliography. index. Neat tight copy but with notes and underlinings. 1st Pbk Ed. Softcover. Good. Princeton University Press unknown

Slatkin Laura M.
THE POWER OF THETIS And Selected Essays
Center for Hellenic Studies. Fine with no dust jacket. 2011. Paperback. 0674021436 . Laura Slatkin's influential and widely admired book here published in a second edition together with six additional essays explores the superficially minor role of Thetis in the Iliad. Highly charged allusions reverberate through the narrative and establish a constellation of themes that link the poem to other traditions. Slatkin uncovers alternative traditions about the power of Thetis and shows how an awareness of those myths brings a far greater understanding of Thetis's place in the thematic structure of the Iliad. The six additional essays included in this volume--some of them classics some never before published--cover a broad range of topics in the study of the Greek Epic: the workings of genre in Hesiod and Homer; the poetics of exchange; and the nature of enmity and friendship. The volume also includes a study of the Hesiodic Catalog of Women and reflections on particular heroes such as Diomedes and Odysseus. ; Hellenic Studies 16; 238 pages .

Snodgrass Anthony
HOMER AND THE ARTISTS Text and Picture in Early Greek Art
Cambridge University Press. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1998. Hardcover. 0521620228 . Very minor shelfwear. ; This is a study of the works of art from early Greece that have long been presented as "illustrations to Homer " but that are argued here to be nothing of the kind. Early Greek artists showed no preference for Homeric subjects and when their interests did coincide with Homer's treated his account as at best one of the possible variants. Close descriptive analysis of texts and pictures and of the artists' aims together with statistical evidence provide the basis for the argument. ; 0.43 x 8.29 x 5.91 Inches; 200 pages . Cambridge University Press hardcover
