‎Creasing to top corners. Old price sticker to front wrap. Spine has minor discoloration with rubbing and creasing. Scholar's small bookplate to ffep (Hugh J. Mason). ; Ann Arbor Paperbacks; 119 pages; Examining the revolution wrought by Catullus in Latin poetry, this volume encapsulates the way in which principles of modern literary criticism could be applied to classical poetry, without ditching the sound philological scholarship of the classical tradition. In its day this book led the way in showing the philogically trained student how to be a critic; equally it can show the critically trained student the importance of a sound philogical base today‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 2009 Paperback, 656 p., 15 x 25. new ISBN 9782503528397.‎

‎Ce volume important qui tente une synthese sur la notion d'auteur a la Renaissance, comporte nombre de textes en francais et en italien et est issus d'une reflexion menee lors de deux colloques, l'un a Bruxelles l'autre a Verone, organises conjointement par la Maison d'Erasme et le Gruppo di studio sul Cinquecento francese. La premiere partie s'interroge sur l'identite de l'auteur a la Renaissance, a la fois dans la facon dont il se choisit un nom en latin ou en grec (Reinhard Bodenmann), sur son anonymat au XVIe siecle (Malcolm Walsby), sur sa ? mort ? (Carlo Vecce) ou sur la question du privilege (Jeanine Landtsheer). La seconde section traite des ? Vies paralleles ? , d'abord dans les sources chez Plutarque (Andrea Rodighiero), dans la Fabrique des recits des Grands hommes au XVIe siecle (Patricia Eichel-Lojkine, ou dans les Vies d'auteur (Michel Jeanneret). La troisieme questionne ? L'altro che e in noi ? : Sannazar/Gilles de Viterbe (Marc Deramaix), Erasme/Jerome (Alexandre Vanautgaerden), Erasme/Origene (Andre Godin), Augustin/Schottus (Nicolette Brout). La partie suivante traite des miroirs deformants de la polemique dans le combat entre Alberto Pio et Erasme (Fabio Forner, Marie Theunissen-Faider). La cinquieme partie traite des galerie d'hommes illustres : Vasari (Mario Pozzi), Thevet (Frank Lestringant) ; la sixieme des femmes erudites : Isable de Villena (Dominique de Courcelles), dans le theatre (Mariangela Miotti), ou a partir de la figure de la veuve pieuse (Loris Petris). L'autobiographie rassemble plusieurs textes abordant les thematiques de l'homme d'etat chez Guicciardini (Jean-Louis Fournel), de Philibert de l'Orme (Alba Ceccarelli Pellegrino), de Brantome (Nerina Clerici Balmas), de Fernao Lopez (Davide Bigalli), de l'ecriture epistolaire (Magda Campani) et de la question du sujet (Vincenzo Rossi-Ercolani). La derniere partie du volume est consacree a Montaigne (Concetta Cavallini, Valerio Cordiner, Nicoletta Panichi). Languages : French, Latin.‎

‎Broken Lines Genealogical Literature in Medieval Britain and France,‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 2009 Hardback, XIV+298 p., 160 x 240 mm. ISBN 9782503524856.‎

‎The essays in this important and fascinating collection explore the genealogical literature of medieval Britain and France in relation to issues of identity, the transmission of power, and cultural, socio-political, and economic developments. By analyzing the mechanics of cultural and political inheritance and the processes of shaping a sense of identity and descent, the essays in this volume direct the reader towards a complex understanding of genealogical literature and its relationships with other genres, one which will further debate and research in these areas. The present collection presents an interdisciplinary approach to the genealogical literature of the late-medieval period, and brings together specialists in the fields of history, cultural history and literature to raise questions of gender, genre, and theoretical approaches. Broken Lines is also the first book-length study of genealogical literature to date, an exciting intervention into this emerging field of interest. Languages : English, French.‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 1993 Hardback, 646 p., 16 x 24. ISBN 9782503500690.‎

‎Cet ouvrage constitue le tome cinq, premier paru, de la Nouvelle Histoire de la Litterature latine, prevue en huit volumes. La NHLL reprend entierement sur nouveaux frais, en tenant compte des progras de nos connaissances et de l'evolution considerable de la bibliographie, le manuel desormais vieilli de Schanz-Hosius publie au debut de ce siecle dans le Handbuch der Altertumswissenschaft de Walter Otto. Sous la responsabilite scientifique de Reinhardt Herzog et de Peter Lebrecht Schmidt, tous deux professeurs a l'Universite de Constance, editeurs et maitres d'oeuvre de cette grande entreprise, les meilleurs specialistes allemands, mais aussi francais, suisses et autrichiens, ont uni leurs competences pour offrir au lecteur sur chaque question une etude parfaitement a jour avec des bibliographies commentees et selectives. Ce tome 5 est consacre a la periode qui va de 284 a 374 ap. J.-C., ou l'on rencontre, a cote d'un grand nombre d'auteurs reputes mineurs mais d'un interet capital pour l'evolution des genres litteraires comme pour l'histoire, les institutions et la civilisation, des maitres de premier ordre comme Ausone, Lactance et Hilaire de Poitiers. L'edition francaise qui en est proposee aujourd'hui, pres de quatre ans apres la publication de l'edition originale allemande, se presente comme une traduction scrupuleuse du texte allemand, tout en s'attachant a restituer la forme initiale des contributions dues a des collaborateurs francais. Elle offre des complements bibliographiques tenant compte des publications des quatre dernieres annees et a corrige maints errata releves dans l'edition allemande. Languages : French.‎

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 1992 Hardcover. 96 p., 160 x 240 mm, Languages: French, Fine copy. Including an index. ISBN 9782503360621.‎

‎Les genres de la poesie scaldique comptent parmi les grands meconnus de notre culture occidentale. Cela vient de la difficulte extreme de l'abord de ce type de poesie savante mais aussi de la longue ignorance ou nous avons tenu la Scandinavie ancienne en matiere de litterature comme en bien d'autres domaines. Il importe de savoir que quelques-uns des fleurons incontestables de nos litteratures medievales ont vu le jour dans le Nord et qu'il est imossible de ne pas les prendre en compte pour comprendre que ces petits pays aient pu susciter quelques-unes des plus belles vocations poetiques de notre temps. Il importe conjointement d'attirer l'attention des erudits sur l'interet documentaire du genre. L'etude d'un pareil sujet pose des problemes de tous ordres d'une ampleur et d'une complexite redoutables. L'etude traitera succinctement ceux qui releves des principes de la Typologie.‎

‎Sociophilological Study of Late Latin‎

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2002 Hardcover. VIII 390 p., 160 x 240 mm, Languages: English, Latin, Fine copy. Including an index. ISBN 9782503513386.‎

‎"Sociophilology" is a word coined by the author to describe a discipline which combines traditional rigorous philological analysis of texts with the recent insights of sociolinguistics. From these combined perspectives he provides an understanding both of Late Latin (Early Romance) language and of the circumstances of the scribes who have given us the evidence. The chronological span ranges from the later part of the Roman Empire to the thirteenth century. The focus is on the processes by which Latin, at different times in different places, came to be thought of as being several different languages (formal Medieval Latin and less formal Romance Languages); these conceptual distinctions are most directly represented by the decisions taken to write some texts in a new way. There are six sections in the book, each containing four chapters: Section A provides an overview, and is entitled "Latin, Medieval Latin and Romance"; B, "Texts and Language in Late Antiquity"; C, "The Ninth Century"; D, "Italy and Spain in the Tenth and Eleventh Centuries"; E, "Spain in the Twelfth and Thirteenth Centuries"; F, "Sociophilology and Historical Linguistics"; followed by a concluding summary chapter, bibliography and indexes. Scholars and Texts investigated include Priscian, Boniface, Rhythmic Poetry, Alcuin, Eulogio de Cordoba, The Strasbourg Oaths, Glossaries, Glosses, and the earliest Romance texts of the Iberian Peninsula; general topics considered in detail, within the Late Latin and Early Romance world, include periodization, the influence of other languages on the development of Latin, change of language names, the nature of sound change, the relationship between speech and writing, the relationship between historical linguistics and sociolinguistics, and the relationship between language-internal variation and language splits.‎
