‎THE FAMILY IN CLASSICAL GREECE‎

‎Cornell University Press. Near Fine. 1984. Softcover. 0801492742 . Very Minor shelfwear. Scholar's name to ffep D. Gerber. ; Aspects of Greek and Roman Life; 342 pages; In this well-researched and coherent introduction to family life in classical Greece Mr Lacey explains the structure of the family the social and economic pressures that affected it and the complicated legal measures that were devised to regulate and protect it. Even though the family has always been a fundamental institution in Greek society this is the first study in English devoted to it. This book deals in detail with the family in the archaic and classical ages -- the great era of the city-states. It was during this period that a close and complex relationship existed between the family and the city-state. Each city-state was in fact the sum total of the households contained in it and each household resembled a miniature kingdom with its own gods and lands and the head of the house exercised almost royal powers over his children. So powerful and close-knit was the family group that it was regarded by politicians and philosophers including Plato and Aristotle as damaging to their ideals of personal detachment and public service and even as a menace to the unity of the state. Mr Lacey supports his views of family life by quoting and discussing relevant writings of the Greek philosophers and by citing contemporary literature especially the comedies. He analyzes also the valuable evidence supplied by inscriptions vase paintings sculpture terracottas and coins many of which are presented in black-and-white photographs. From ancient times until today the most pervasive force in Greek life has been the family. This study of its influence in classical Greece makes possible a better understanding of greek history literature and art. . Cornell University Press paperback‎

‎THE EXPERIENCES OF TIRESIAS The Feminine and the Greek Man‎

‎Princeton University Press. Very Good. 1997. Softcover. 0691017174 . Spine sunned. Minor shelfwear. ; In The Experiences of Tiresias its title referring to the shepherd struck blind after glimpsing Athena's naked body Nicole Loraux explores the ambivalence in how the Greek male defines himself in relationship to the feminine. In these essays Loraux disturbs the idea of virile men and feminine women a distinction found in official discourse and aimed at protecting the ideals of male identity from any taint of the feminine. Turning to epic and to Socrates however she insists on a logic of an inclusiveness between the genders which casts a shadow over their clear officially defined borders. "Nicole Loraux documents with delicate sensitivity to text and context the mobility of the contrast between 'man' and 'the feminine. '. Her readings of tragedy are particularly compelling. "--Mary Margaret McCabe The Times Literary Supplement "Loraux is a pioneer in the analysis of gender difference and sexuality in classical Greece. Strongly opposed to polarized interpretations of 'masculine' and 'feminine ' she illuminates the complex and often contradictory interrelationship of the sexes in real life and in the Greek/Athenian social 'imaginary.

DJ has very minor shelfwear. ; The Robson Classical Lectures; 256 pages; Based on Elaine Fantham's 2004 Robson lectures Latin Poets and Italian Gods reconstructs the response of Roman poets in the late republic and Augustan age to the rural cults of central Italy. Study of Roman gods is often limited to the grand equivalents of the Olympian Greek deities such as Jupiter Mars and Juno. However real-life Italians gave a lot of their affection and loyalty to humbler gods with no Greek equivalent: local nymphs who supplied healing waters the great Tiber river and other lesser rivers the lusty garden god Priapus and more. Latin Poets and Italian Gods surveys the representation of these old country gods in poets from Plautus to Statius. Fantham offers historical and epigraphic evidence of worship offered to these colourful lesser spirits and reveals the emotional importance of local Italian deities to the sophisticated poets of the Augustan age. ; Signed by Author .

‎CORINNA‎

‎Society for the Promotion of Hellenic Studies. Very Good. 1963. Softcover. Minor shelfwear. Chipping to rear wrap. Scholar's name to front wrap D. Gerber. ; Corinna or Korinna was an Ancient Greek poet probably of the 6th century BC. She came from Tanagra in Boeotia and according to later legend was the teacher of the much better-known Theban poet Pindar. Although two poems survive in epitome most of her work exists currently in fragments. Corinna's birthdate is unknown but if Pindar was indeed her pupil it may be assumed that she was born some years earlier than his birthdate of 522 BC. Some writers however place her in the 5th or 4th century BC. Pausanias says she won a poetry competition against Pindar in honour of which she had a monument erected to her. He says that her success was chiefly due to her beauty and her use of the local Boeotian dialect. Aelian says said she defeated Pindar five times and in response to these defeats Pindar called her a sow. Antipater of Thessaloniki lists her in his catalogue of nine mortal muses. Corinna wrote choral poetry for celebrations in the Boeotian dialect of Greek. It is said that she criticised Pindar for introducing Atticisms into his poems. Unlike Pindar she focused on local myths and drew parallels between the world of mythology and ordinary human behaviour. The outlines of two of her poems survive. Minouaie The Daughters of Minyas tells of the three adult daughters of King Minyas of Orchomenos: Leukippe Arsippe and Alkathoe. Koronaie The Shuttle Maidens tells of Orion's two daughters Menippe and Metioche who cut their throats with their shuttle "accepting death for their neighbours' sake". ; 8vo; 88 pages .
