M[IRZE] E[LEKBER] SABIR, (1862-1911).
Hophopnâme.
Very Good Azerbaijani Paperback. Cr. 8vo. (20 x 14 cm). In Azerbaijani (Arabic script). [100] p., color ills. Hophopnâme. The first artist whose book was published and whose statue was laid down by getting donations from the public is the national poet of Azarbaijan Mirze Elekber Sabir. This case is enough to clarify the effect that he struck on public as well. Sabir who was born in Samahi city of Azerbaijan in 1862 lived all his life in physical, economical and moral difficulties. In spide of he wrote his poems in classic form at first, he assimilated a modernist poem mentality with the help of " Molla Nasreddin" magazine published by Celil Memmedguluzade. He wrote up almost all social issues in judgmental an homour way. Although he died at his early ages and had a short literary life, he created a new poem mentality to Azerbaijan Turkish literature by bringing these innovations in substances and utterance. Additionally, these innovations weren't limited in Azerbaijan, they showed their effects on all Turkish world.

MACHON: THE FRAGMENTS; Edited with an Introduction and Commentary
Cambridge University Press. 1965. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. Light shelfwear to DJ and book. Scholar's name to ffep D. Gerber.; Machon was a writer of Comedies who lived and worked in Alexandria in the middle of the third century B. C. All of his work that survives is preserved in the Deipnosophistae of Athenaeus who besides two fragments of Comedies of no great importance quotes also 462 verses from a collection of anecdotes which Machon called Xpeiai. These anecdotes are written in the iambic verse of Comedy. They are concerned with the doings and sayings of courtesans parasites and musicians sometimes in relation to persons of historical importance. They are often scabrous but also not infrequently amusing; and they are of considerable interest both as documents of social history and as a type of literature which though popular in antiquity has hardly survived. The Xpeiai which present many problems of reading and interpretation have never before been separately edited. Recent editors of Athenaeus have improved the text; but to find commentaries it is necessary to go back to Casaubon's edition of Athenaeus published in 1600 and to Schweighauser's published in 1801-7.; Cambridge Classical Texts and Commentaries 1; 172 pages . 0521056314 .

SIGNS OF ORALITY; The Oral Tradition and Its Influence in the Greek and Roman World
Brill. 1999. Hardcover. Very Good in Very Good- dust jacket. Some pencil markings and underlining. Slight spine slant. Scholar's name to ffep Jonathan Burgess. Edgewear creasing and a couple of tears to DJ.; The essays in this volume present new insights into the far-reaching influence of an early oral culture on subsequent development after the spread of literacy. At the outset revisionist essays on the Homeric epics examine such questions as historical memory Homer's audience s descriptive strategies ring-composition and the status of orality as a constitutive feature of the epics. These are followed by virtually unprecedented studies of the orality of later written literature including Greek oratory Virgilian epic Pliny's Panegyricus and story-telling in late Greek writers. Included as well are two discussions of Athenian vase-painting: annular scene-composition in the black-figure tradition and the implications of kalos-inscriptions. An introduction by leading oral theorist John Miles Foley situates all the essays at the leading edge of oral theoretical development.; Mnemosyne. Bibliotheca Classica Batava.
