Syme, Ronald; Anthony Birley (Ed )
ANATOLICA; Studies in Strabo
Oxford University Press. 1995. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. DJ spine is sunned and discolored now in brodart. Light bump to top corner of book with small scratches to front board.; No historian of ancient Rome in this century has had a greater influence on historical research or won greater international acclaim than Sir Ronald Syme 1903-89. His outstanding position was due mainly to his first two books The Roman Revolution which appeared in 1939 and Tacitus two volumes 1958 - although he went on to produce many more monographs and seven volumes of his Roman Papers have so far appeared. The long gap between his first two books is partly explained by the war which took him on official duties to Belgrade and Ankara and he spent the years 1943-5 at Istanbul as Professor of Classical Philology. It was known that in spite of the war Syme had continued to write in these years in particular 'Strabonia' investigations into the famous ancient Geography composed by Strabo a native of Asia Minor in the time of Augustus. After Syme's death the manuscript was discovered among his papers: he had not quite completed the work but what he had written with almost complete annotation represents a substantial and fascinating study of the historical geography of Anatolia in the Hellenistic and early Roman period. Syme ruthlessly dissects the often incoherent and inconsistent text of Strabo at the same time providing rich detail on client kings Roman generals and emperors writers and travellers. Above all he shows unequalled ability to understand the landscape and settlement of Anatolia.; 424 pages . 0198149433 . Oxford University Press hardcover

Neils, Jenifer
THE PARTHENON FRIEZE
Cambridge University Press. 2001. Hardcover. Very Good in Near Fine dust jacket. Book has minor foxing to boards and textblock. Light bump to 1 corner. Dustjacket has minor shelfwear. Dustjacket is protected in mylar.; Includes cd-rom; 4to 11" - 13" tall; 316 pages; While the sculpted Ionic frieze of the Parthenon with its galloping horsemen and classically portrayed gods is reproduced in every art history text and has been much studied by scholars no single book has yet been devoted to all its myriad aspects. This study by classical archaeologist and art historian Jenifer Neils breaks new ground by considering all aspects of this complex and controversial monument. Although the frieze has been studied for over two hundred years most scholarship has sought an overall interpretation of the iconography rather than focusing on the sculpture's visual language essential for a full understanding of the narrative. Neils' study not only decodes the language of the frieze but also analyzes its conception and design style and content as well as its impact on later art. Unusual for its wide-ranging approach to the frieze this book also brings ethical reasoning to bear on the issue of its possible repatriation as part of the on-going Elgin Marble debate. As one of the foremost examples of the high classical style and the finest expression of mid-fifth century Athenian ideology the Parthenon frieze is without doubt one of the major monuments of western civilization and as such deserves to be understood in all its dimensions. The accompanying CD-ROM contains a virtual reality Macromedia Director movie of the complete frieze based on the plaster casts in the Skulpturhalle in Basel Switzerland. Developed by Rachel Rosenzweig of the Department of Greek and Roman Art of the Cleveland Museum of Art the casts are arranged in conformity with Neils' reconstruction and enable the user to view them in succession as if walking around the Parthenon. The CD-ROM requires a computer running either MAC OS 8.01 or later or Windows 95 or later. . 0521641616 . Cambridge University Press hardcover

Routledge. 1994. Hardcover. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. Very light bump to top of spine else book is fine. Very light shelfwear to DJ. Dustjacket is protected in plastic sleeve.; Lyric Texts and Lyric Consciousness presents a model for studying the history of lyric as a genre. Prof Miller draws a distinction between the work of the Greek lyrists and the more condensed personal poetry that we associate with lyric. He then confronts the theoretical issues and presents a sophisticated Bakhtinian reading of the development of the lyric form from its origins in archaic Greece to the more individualist style of Augustan Rome. This book will appeal to classicists and since English translations of passages from the ancient authors are provided to those who specialise in comparative literature.; 248 pages . 0415105188 .

No previous work has thoroughly analyzed nonverbal behavior in Homeric epic.

WRITTEN VOICES SPOKEN SIGNS; Tradition Performance and the Epic Text
Harvard University Press. 1997. Hardcover. Very Good in No Dust Jacket dust jacket. Faint foxing to textblock. Else minor shelfwear.; Written Voices Spoken Signs is a stimulating introduction to new perspectives on Homer and other traditional epics. Taking advantage of recent research on language and social exchange the nine essays in this volume focus on performance and audience reception of oral poetry. These innovative essays by leading scholars of Homer oral poetics and epic invite us to rethink some key concepts for an understanding of traditional epic poetry. Egbert Bakker examines the epic performer's use of time and tense in recounting a past that is alive. Tackling the question of full-length performance of the monumental Iliad Andrew Ford considers the extent to which the work was perceived as a coherent whole in the archaic age. John Miles Foley addresses questions about spoken signs and the process of reference in epic discourse and Ahuvia Kahane studies rhythm as a semantic factor in the Homeric performance. Richard Martin suggests a new range of performance functions for the Homeric simile. And Gregory Nagy establishes the importance of one feature of epic language the ellipsis. These six essays centered on Homer engage with fundamental issues that are addressed by three essays primarily concerned with medieval epic: those by Franz Bäuml on the concept of fact; by Wulf Oesterreicher on types of orality; and by Ursula Schaefer on written and spoken media. In their Introduction the editors highlight the underlying approach and viewpoints of this collaborative volume.; Center for Hellenic Studies Colloquia; 320 pages . 0674962605 .

THE EARLY AMAZONS; Modern and Ancient Perspectives on a Persistent Myth
E. J. Brill. 1995. Hardcover. Very Good in No Dust Jacket dust jacket. Front upper corner bumped and a bit creased. Else light shelfwear.; Religions in the Graeco-Roman World; 473 pages; The Early Amazons offers a new understanding of the ancient Amazon myth situating mythical representations in the realm of cultural history. The first section examines how the Amazons have presented a challenge to views on history myth and gender in classical mythology from the late eighteenth century up to the impact of structuralism. Topics included are nineteenth-century historiography and the interest in linguistics. The second section sheds new light on the culture of archaic Greece offering a coherent assessment of literary and visual representations. Taking mythical narrative as a form of oral storytelling it shows the emergence of the Amazon motif and its meaning in the world of epic. Iconographical analysis reveals how the visual arts have made a contribution of their own to the imaginary presence of the Amazons. . 9004100776 . E. J. Brill hardcover

HOMER'S ANCIENT READERS; The Hermeneutics of Greek Epic's Earliest Exegetes
Princeton University Press. 1992. Hardcover. Very Good in Near Fine dust jacket. Faint foxing to top of textblock. Light shelfwear to book and DJ. Dustjacket is protected in mylar.; Although the influence of Homer on Western literature has long commanded critical attention little has been written on how various generations of readers have found meaning in his texts. These seven essays explore the ways in which the Iliad and the Odyssey have been read from the time of Homer through the Renaissance. By asking what questions early readers expected the texts to answer and looking at how these expectations changed over time the authors clarify the position of the Iliad and the Odyssey in the intellectual world of antiquity while offering historical insight into the nature of reading. This collection surveys the entire field of preserved ancient interpretations of Homer beginning with the fictional audiences portrayed within the poems themselves proceeding to readings by Aristotle the Stoics and Aristarchus and Crates and culminating in the spiritualized allegorical reading current among Platonists of the fifth and sixth centuries C. E. The influence of these ancient interpretations is then examined in Byzantium and in the Latin West during the Renaissance.

University of Michigan Press. 2003. Hardcover. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. Scholar's name to ffep Robert Brown. Else book has very light shelfwear. DJ spine a bit sunned.; Moving beyond the usual pairing of Homer and Virgil Iliad and Aeneid Rossi refutes the notion that Homer is the only code model for the latter. This in-depth study reveals that Virgilian battle narrative assimilates conventions of other literary genres namely historiography and indirectly tragedy. Rossi demonstrates how Virgilian war narrative allows multiple and diachronic visions of reality and hence multiple systems of signification to co-exist in the text. In this way Virgil's Aeneid detaches itself from the Homeric epic and forcefully asserts its own relative modernity.; 236 pages . 0472113593 . University of Michigan Press hardcover

Rosenmeyer, Thomas G
SENECAN DRAMA AND STOIC COSMOLOGY
University of California Press. 1989. Hardcover. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. Scholar's name to ffep Robert Brown. Upper corner lightly bumped. Minor shelfwear. Minor creasing and shelfwear to DJ.; Lucius Annaeus Seneca Nero's tutor and advisor wrote philosophical essays some of them in the form of letters and dramas on Greek mythological topics which since the early Renaissance have exercised a powerful influence on the European theater. Because in his essays Seneca in his own eclectic way subscribes to the philosophy of the Stoic school scholars and critics have long been asking the question whether the plays also could be regarded as transmitters of Stoic thought. Various answers ranging from a categorical no to an uneasy yes have been given. With few exceptions the students who have concerned themselves with this question have looked for their enlightenment in Stoic psychology and Stoic ethics. In this book Thomas G. Rosenmeyer proposes instead to look at the Stoic science of nature of the world and human beings in the world as a more plausible grounding for the difference between Senecan drama and its Greek predecessors. In the process of looking at what the Stoics especially the early Stoics had to say about the forces determining natural phenomena the author uncovers a deeply pessimistic strain in Stoic cosmology and an interest in physicality and environmental tension that he finds replicated in the theater not only of Seneca but also of the later European tradition indebted to him.; 248 pages . 0520064453 .
