THE GARDEN OF PRIAPUS Sexuality and Aggression in Roman Humor
Oxford University Press. Very Good. 1992. Revised Edition. Paperback. 0195068734 . Shelfwear. 1 corner of wraps worn. ; Statues of the god Priapus stood in Roman gardens to warn potential thieves that the god would rape them if they attempted to steal from him. In this book Richlin argues that the attitude of sexual aggressiveness in defense of a bounded area serves as a model for Roman satire from Lucilius to Juvenal. Using literary anthropological psychological and feminist methodologies she suggests that aggressive sexual humor reinforces aggressive behavior on both the individual and societal levels and that Roman satire provides an insight into Roman culture. Including a substantial and provocative new introduction this revised edition is important not only as an in-depth study of Roman sexual satire but also as a commentary on the effects of all humor on society and its victims. ; 352 pages .

Sanders, Ed
ENVY AND JEALOUSY IN CLASSICAL ATHENS A Socio-Psychological Approach
Oxford University Press. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 2014. Hardcover. 0199897727 . Emotions vary extensively between cultures especially in their eliciting conditions social acceptability forms of expression and co-extent of terminology. Envy and Jealousy in Classical Athens examines the sensation expression and literary representation of these major emotions in Athens. Previous scholarship has primarily taken a lexical approach focusing on usage of the Greek words phthonos and zêlos. This has value but also limitations for two reasons: the discreditable nature of phthonos renders its ascription or disclamation suspect and there is no Classical Greek label for sexual jealousy. A complementary approach is therefore required one which reads the expressed values and actions of entire situations. Building on recent developments in reading emotion "scripts" in classical texts this book applies to Athenian culture and literature insights on the contexts conscious and subconscious motivations subjective manifestations and indicative behaviors of envy jealousy and related emotions. These critical insights are derived from modern philosophical psychological psychoanalytical sociological and anthropological scholarship thus enabling an exploration of both the explicit theorization and evaluation of envy and jealousy and also the more oblique ways in which they find expression across different genres-in particular philosophy oratory comedy and tragedy. By employing this new methodology Ed Sanders illuminates a significant and underexplored aspect of Classical Athenian culture and literature. ; Emotions of the Past; 224 pages .

Kennedy, George Alexander
CLASSICAL RHETORIC AND ITS CHRISTIAN AND SECULAR TRADITION FROM ANCIENT TO MODERN TIMES
University of North Carolina Press. Very Good. 1999. Second Revised Edition. Softcover. 0807847690 . Very minor shelfwear. ; George Kennedy offers a thoroughly revised and updated edition of "Classical Rhetoric and Its Christian and Secular Tradition." From its development in ancient Greece and Rome through its continuation and adaptation in Europe and America through the Middle Ages and Renaissance to its enduring significance in the twentieth century he traces the theory and practice of classical rhetoric through history. At each stage of the way he demonstrates how new societies modified classical rhetoric to fit their needs. For this edition Kennedy has updated the text and the bibliography to incorporate new scholarship; added sections relating to women orators and rhetoricians throughout history; and enlarged the discussion of rhetoric in America Germany and Spain.

Bowersock, G. W.
FICTION AS HISTORY Nero to Julian
University of California Press. Very Good. 1997. Softcover. 0520208811 . Minor edgewear to wraps. Spine is sunned. ; Sather Classical Lectures 58; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 180 pages; Using pagan fiction produced in Greek and Latin during the early Christian era G. W. Bowersock investigates the complex relationship between "historical" and "fictional" truths. This relationship preoccupied writers of the second century a time when apparent fictions about both past and present were proliferating at an astonishing rate and history was being invented all over again. With force and eloquence Bowersock illuminates social attitudes of this period and persuasively argues that its fiction was influenced by the emerging Christian Gospel narratives. Enthralling in its breadth and enhanced by two erudite appendices this is a book that will be warmly welcomed by historians and interpreters of literature. . University of California Press paperback
