‎HYLAS THE NYMPHS DIONYSOS AND OTHERS Myth Ritual Ethnicity‎

‎Paul Astr�ms F�rlag. Fine. 2005. Softcover. 9179160514 . Skrifter Utgivna Av Svenska Institutet I Athen / Acta Instituti Atheniensis Regni Sueciae Series in 8� XIX; 421 pages; The focus of this book is the reconstruction of the mythicoritual nexus in Kios in Mysia through the in-depth investigation of the evidence surviving in accounts by and so shaped by the filters of outsiders and also of other issues implicated in its Problematik: ethnicity cultural and religious interactions between Greeks and non-Greeks colonial discourses with special emphasis on the foundation mythopea of Kios� mother city Miletos the nature and functions of the Nymphs the different personalities of Dionysos advent festivals certain problematic categories of cult recipients. Hylas� myth and ritual had been constructed through complex interactions between several mythicoritual schemata and included also elements that appear in non-Greek nexuses located in the area of Kios. The myth was both a foundation myth constructing cultural continuity with the heroic age and an immortalization myth: a Greek youth was abducted by Nymphs and became a diety rooted to the landscape and symbolically rooting the colony to the land; it established a poliouchos figure unique to Kios connected Herakles with the city�s foundation and articulated a relationship of cooperation and integration between Greeks and Non-Greeks. A ritual celebrated Hylas� advent and commemorated the events that had led to Kios� foundation articulating a cooperative relationship between Greeks and locals. . Paul Astr�ms F�rlag paperback‎

‎Songs on Bronze: The Greek Myths Made Real‎

‎Farrar Straus & Giroux 2005. Book. Fine. Hardcover. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Near-new condition. NO remainder marks or price clippings. Tight spine clean pages. NO writing marks or tears inside book. 255 pages. Songs on Bronze is the first major retelling of Greek mythology in half a century; a set of lively racy dramatic versions of the great myths which in a multicultural society are recognized more than ever as stories without equal. Most of us would like to know the Greek myths better than we do and books like Seamus Heaney's Beowulf have demonstrated the power of ancient texts to enchant and enthrall us. And yet the modern translations of the Greek myths have sought to instruct to edify or to impart a personal philosophy. Songs on Bronze is different. With this book Nigel Spivey--a young Cambridge classicist and rising star as a documentary host--gives us the Greek myths as the spellbinding stories they are. In bold sensuous prose he tells of Demeter and Persephone of Jason and the Argonauts of the wrath of Achilles and the travels of Odysseus of Oedipus's crime and Orpheus's excursion into the underworld. In his hands these stories are revealed anew as outsize tales of love and strife of secret compacts and open rivalries of lust and desire. Songs on Bronze is a fresh revision of the classics that is likely to become a classic in its own right. Farrar Straus & Giroux Hardcover‎

‎STATIUS: THEBAID‎

‎Oxford University Press. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1992. Hardcover. 0198147821 . Very light shelfwear to book. DJ has some creasing to front panel and sticker residue to rear panel. ; 1.18 x 8.75 x 5.75 Inches; 428 pages; This is a new translation of the Thebaid of Publius Papinius Statius an epic poem in twelve books completed in about AD 90. The Thebaid has been thought by many to stand second only to Virgil among Latin narrative poems. Its theme is the war between Eteocles and Polynices sons of Oedipus for the throne of Thebes. Rich in incident and always dramatic in tone it unfolds a panorama of human ambition and violence triumph and catastrophe. Though remaining within the Homeric and Virgilian tradition it achieves its own power and vitality in thought language and description. Held in high esteem and widely imitated in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance the Thebaid of Statius is not only a masterpiece of poetry but a compelling story at times horrifying noble and pathetic of humankind bound by the power of Fate. .

‎THE TYRANT'S WRIT Myths and Images of Writing in Ancient Greece‎

‎Princeton University Press. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 1994. Hardcover. 0691032386 . Light shelfwear to book and DJ. ; 280 pages; Covering material as diverse as curse tablets coins tattoos and legal decrees Deborah Steiner explores the reception of writing in archaic and classical Greece. She moves beyond questions concerning ancient literacy and the origins of the Greek alphabet to examine representations of writing in the myths and imaginative literature of the period. Maintaining that the Greek alphabet was not seen purely as a means of transcribing and preserving the spoken word the author investigates parallels between writing and other signifiers such as omens tokens and talismans; the role of inscription in religious rites including cursing oath-taking and dedication; and perceptions of how writing functioned both in autocracies and democracies. Particularly innovative is the suggestion that fifth-century Greek historians and dramatists portrayed writing as an essential tool of tyrants who not only issue written decrees but also "inscribe" human bodies with brands and cut up land with compasses and rules. The despotic overtones associated with writing inform discussion of its function in democracies. Although writing could promote equal justice ancient sources also linked this activity with historical and mythical figures who opposed the populist regime. By examining this highly nuanced portrayal of writing Steiner offers a new perspective on ancient views of written law and its role in 5th-century Athenian democracy. .
