‎EURIPIDES: IPHIGENIA IN TAURIS; Edited with Introduction Translation and Commentary‎

‎Liverpool University Press. 2023. Second Edition. Hardcover. Fine in No Dust Jacket dust jacket. Iphigenia in Tauris tells the story of the princess Iphigenia who was sacrificed by her father Agamemnon to expedite his campaign against Troy but was rescued by the goddess Artemis and transported to the land of the Taurians. There she herself must perform human sacrifices as a priestess of Artemis in the local cult. Troy has now been sacked and Agamemnon murdered by his wife and avenged by his son Orestes. With his mother's blood on his hands Orestes is guided by Apollo to seek purification through bringing the image of the Tauric Artemis to Greece and so is reunited with his sister. The drama centers on Orestes' near-sacrifice at Iphigenia’s hands their recognition in the nick of time and their ingenious and thrilling escape to bring the cult of Artemis to Halae and Brauron near Athens.Martin Cropp’s first edition was originally published in 2000 and provided the first commentary on the play since those of Maurice Platnauer Oxford 1938 and Hans Strohm Munich 1949. It contributed significantly to a revival of interest in what had been a rather neglected and underrated play. This new edition incorporates substantial revisions to the introduction and commentary and some corrections to the Greek text and translation in light of reviews of the first edition and other recent work.; Aris & Phillips Classical Texts; 5.83 X 0.65 X 8.27 inches; 312 pages; Text with facing translation commentary and notes. . 1837644322 .

Faint edgewear to DJ.; 414 pages; Hesiod was an ancient Greek poet whose Works and Days discusses agricultural practices and society in general. Classicists and ancient historians have turned to Works and Days for its insights on Greek mythology and religion. The poem also sheds light on economic history and ancient agriculture and is a good resource for social scientists interested in these areas. This translation emphasizes the activities and problems of a practicing agriculturist as well as the larger changing political and economic institutions of the early archaic period. The authors provide a clear accurate translation along with notes aimed at a broad audience. The introductory essay discusses the changing economic political and trading world of the eighth and seventh centuries B. C. E. while the notes present the range and possible meanings of important Greek terms and references in the poem and highlight areas of ambiguity in our understanding of Works and Days. . 0198140053 .

‎Cambridge University Press. 1969. Hardcover. Fine in Very Good dust jacket. DJ spine is browned. DJ is price-clipped.; Between the time of Julius Caesar and the death of Augustus Aes coinage was struck at many centres in the Empire. This pioneer work by Michael Grant who has been President and Medallist of the Royal Numismatic Society and Archer M. Huntington Medallist of the American Numismatic Society examines nearly all the known coins of this period. The coins illustrate not only the gold silver and bronze issues of the period but also the development of the Roman constitution and administration. A secondary purpose of this book has therefore been to extract new historical information - political economic social and personal - on a vital phase of world history. The volume includes twelve plates showing photographs of many of the coins. It also incorporates by courtesy of the American Numismatic Society a supplementary key which relates the coins to the appropriate passages in the text.; 530 pages . 0521074576 .

‎Georg Olms Verlag. 2006. Softcover. Fine. The volume gathers for the first time thirty-five scattered articles by Calder published 1958-1998 concerned with the political content of selected tragedies and their staging from Thespis to Seneca. An historian seeks to see tragedies in context whether Pericles’ Athens or Nero’s Rome. He regularly contests the opinio communis. Eumenides protests against Periclean reform. Zeus in Prometheus is the tyrant Demos. Kreon not Antigone is the hero of Antigone. Neoptolemos in Philoctetes is a clever deceiver from the start. Sophocles Oinomaos was the inspiration of the East Pediment at Olympia. Atreus in Seneca’s Thyestes is the model whom Nero is urged to follow. The usual size of the Senecan chorus was three never fifteen. Thespis’ chorus was six.

This series of twenty complementary essays by experts in the field explores the art social status reputation and image of the ancient actor in the Greek and Roman worlds from the sixth century BC to Byzantium. Numerous illustrations are included and all Greek and Latin passages are translated. This collection of twenty essays examines the art profession and idea of the actor in Greek and Roman antiquity and has been commissioned and arranged to cast as much interdisciplinary and transhistorical light as possible on these elusive but fascinating ancient professionals. It covers a chronological span from the sixth century BC to Byzantium and even beyond to the way that ancient actors have influenced the arts from the Renaissance to the twentieth century and stresses the huge geographical spread of ancient actors. Some essays focus on particular themes such as the evidence for women actors or the impact of acting on the presentation of suicide in literature others offer completely new evidence such as graffiti relating to actors in Asia Minor others ask new questions such as what subjective experience can be reconstructed for the ancient actor.
