OUT OF ATHENS The New Ancient Greeks
Harvard University Press. Good. 2010. Softcover. 0674064070 . Ex-library copy with removed markings. Stiffened wraps. ; The iconoclast of Classics Page duBois refuses to act as border patrol for a sometimes fiercely protected traditional discipline. Instead she incorporates insights from postcolonial psychoanalytic and postmodern theories into her nuanced close readings of ancient Greek texts. Contemporary theory and ancient texts are mutually transformed in the process. Out of Athens sets ancient Greek culture next to the global ancient world of Vedic India the Han dynasty in China and the empires that survived Alexander the Great. DuBois also extends the range of classical studies through illuminating transhistorical juxtapositions Ancients brush elbows with Colette as she performs as a mummy at the Moulin Rouge or with Kirk Douglas as he appears on the silver screen as Spartacus. She reads the poetry of Sappho the tattooed body of the sage Epimenides as well as Athenian tragedy Buddhist texts set in a post-Alexandrian Bactria alongside the work of Judith Butler and Alain Badiou. Page duBois establishes a daring agenda for the next generation of Classicists and for both the intimate friend of Greek texts and the freshly arrived reader makes ancient Greeks new. ; 256 pages .

Duckworth Publishers. Near Fine. 2004. Softcover. 0715631233 . Underlining in pencil to a few pages. ; "Surviving Greek Tragedy" is a history of the physical survival to the present day of the thirty-two extant tragedies of Aeschylus Sophocles and Euripides. Beginning with the first revival of the plays in the fourth century BC it charts the course of their transmission down the centuries as they passed through the hands of actors readers scholars schoolteachers monks publishers translators theatre directors and so on. Over the course of this 2400-year period the plays were at different times performed copied quoted emended excerpted analysed taught translated censored adapted or merely left to moulder in a library as each successive culture charged with their safe-keeping saw fit. In the last thirty years Greek tragedy has become the medium through which most people encounter the classical heritage and in the book Garland gives extensive coverage to modern stagings of the plays all over the world taking this fascinating story right up to the present. Robert Garland writes in a lively style accessible to students and scholars alike. The book is plentifully illustrated with images from all the periods under discussion--from Greek vase paintings to Deborah Warner's production of Medea at the Queen s Theatre London in 2001.; 286 pages .

Bassi, Karen & Peter J. Euben & Carla Antonaccio & Noriko Aso & P J. Brendese & Peter Burian & Diskin Clay & Carol Doug
WHEN WORLDS ELIDE Classics Politics Culture
Lexington Books. Fine. 2010. Softcover. 0739122754 . For better or worse the ancient Greeks retain their cultural political and philosophical authority for contemporary educators and actors. Maureen Dowd has talked about the Hellenization of the Bush administration Thucydides has been used as a template to analyze the Iraqi War and the War on Terror Greek drama has been repeatedly performed in sometimes spectacular if unconventional ways while the Trojan War the battle of Thermopylae the Spartans and Alexander have all been the subjects of recent films. Last year the New York Times carried a front page story about "conservatives" taking a "new tack" by establishing "beachheads" for programs in Western Civilization and American Institutions in which the ancient Greeks hold pride of place. The contributors to When Worlds Elide are also invested in having Greek philosophy literature and political theory taken seriously in contemporary debates-whether over modes of interpreting Plato Athenian democracy gender ethnicity or materiality. What distinguishes this book is the substantive range of the essays in it and the generative potentialities of "using" ancient authors and events in analyzing these debates. It begins from the premise that "the Greeks" like "the French" or "the Chinese" obscures the contested histories of ethnic geographic and political formations in favor of an idealized dehistoricized collectivity. The also book also illustrates the ways in which ancient texts must be understood within the history of interpretative practices which means that "the Greeks" are more a moving target than a stable entity and that each generation of interlocutors formulates continually transforming questions readings and arguments. Finally this book supposes that an interrogation of "the Greek legacy" depends on interdisciplinary work where interdisciplinarity functions as a verb-that is something that is always in the process of being achieved. ; Greek Studies: Interdisciplinary Approaches; 152.4 X 0.99 X 9 inches; 490 pages .

SLAVES AND OTHER OBJECTS
University of Chicago Press. Very Good in Near Fine dust jacket. 2003. Hardcover. 0226167879 . Underlining in pencil to a few pages. ; Page duBois a classicist known for her daring and originality turns in this new book to one of the most troubling subjects in the study of antiquity: the indispensability of slaves in ancient Greece. DuBois argues that every object and text in the world of ancient Greece bears the marks of slavery and the need to reiterate the distinction between slave and free. And yet the ubiquity of slaves in ancient societies has been overlooked by scholars who idealize antiquity misconstrued by those who view slavery through the lens of race and obscured by the split between historical and philological approaches to the classics. DuBois begins her study by exploring the material culture of slavery including how most museum exhibits erase the presence of slaves in the classical world. Shifting her focus to literature she considers the place of slaves in Plato's Meno Aristotle's Politics Aesop's Fables Aristophanes' Wasps and Euripides' Orestes. She contends throughout that portraying the difference between slave and free as natural was pivotal to Greek concepts of selfhood and political freedom and that scholars who idealize such concepts too often fail to recognize the role that slavery played in their articulation.; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 312 pages .

Sophocles; Andrew Brown (Ed. )
SOPHOCLES: ANTIGONE Edited with Translation and Notes
Aris & Phillips. Very Good. 1987. Softcover. 0856682675 . Underlining in pencil to a few pages. ; The text is newly constituted in the light of the latest scholarly research with an abbreviated critical apparatus. The facing translation stays as close to the Greek wording as English idiom allows one of its purposes being to show how the Greek is to be construed. The commentary is designed to elucidate the play not to discuss points of grammar or philology though the reader is alerted to all serious textual uncertainties. While full account is taken of recent developments in scholarship and literary criticism the needs of the complete beginner are constantly borne in mind and almost all the notes are accessible to readers with no Greek at all. Copious references are provided to places where further discussion can be found. Text with facing translation commentary and notes. ; 227 pages . Aris & Phillips paperback

Krostenko Brian A.
CICERO CATULLUS AND THE LANGUAGE OF SOCIAL PERFORMANCE
University Of Chicago Press. Near Fine. 2001. Softcover. 0226454444 . Very light shelfwear. ; Charm wit and style were critical but dangerous ingredients in the social repertoire of the Roman elite. Their use drew special attention but also exposed one to potential ridicule or rejection for valuing style over substance. Brian A. Krostenko explores the complexities and ambiguities of charm wit and style in Roman literature of the late Republic by tracking the origins development and use of the terms that described them which he calls "the language of social performance." As Krostenko demonstrates a key feature of this language is its capacity to express both approval and disdainan artifact of its origins at a time when the "style" and "charm" of imported Greek cultural practices were greeted with both enthusiasm and hostility. Cicero played on that ambiguity for example by chastising lepidus "fine" boys in the "Second Oration against Catiline" as degenerates then arguing in his De Oratore that the successful speaker must have a certain charming lepos "wit". Catullus in turn exploited and inverted the political subtexts of this language for innovative poetic and erotic idioms. ; 336 pages . University Of Chicago Press paperback
