Else VG. ; Cambridge Greek and Latin Classics; 252 pages; The four private speeches contained in this collection were functional artefacts whose object was to persuade a jury numbered in hundreds by manipulating both the facts of the case and the prejudices beliefs and attitudes of the Athenian man-in-the-street. It is as vehicles of persuasion that Dr Carey and Dr Reid seek primarily to treat the speeches using their commentary to shed light on how well the speeches perform their function. The speeches have also been chosen for their value as documents of Athenian law commerce and private life. The commentary explains as far as possible any obscurities in these fields and also deals with matters of linguistic interest. While intended mainly for undergraduates and students in the upper forms of schools the book will be of interest to all classical scholars. The introduction which provides a brief survey of the Athenian legal system and the trade of the speechwriter requires no knowledge of Greek and should interest students of classical culture and literature in translation. .

‎ROMAN COINS AND PUBLIC LIFE UNDER THE EMPIRE E. Togo Salmon Papers II‎

‎University of Michigan Press. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 1999. Hardcover. 0472108751 . 0.72 x 9.48 x 6.2 Inches; 216 pages; Roman coins often shed light on Roman public life and society through the legends portraits and images they bear. The papers collected in this volume were originally presented at the Second E. Togo Salmon Conference on Roman Studies. The eight contributors are specialists in Roman coins or Roman history and in the relations between them. Coins are a unique source of information about the Roman world. In the case of the Roman Empire they were issued by or with the approval of the ruling power. The representations and legends they show therefore present an official view of contemporary affairs. The coins themselves minted for official purposes such as paying the army when studied carefully can help reconstruct official policies. They can also occasionally reveal what monuments now lost may have looked like. It is not infrequent to come across pleas that the ancient historian should make more frequent use of numismatic evidence. These essays make clear that efforts are being made both by numismatists and by historians to bring the two disciplines together. At the same time the papers reveal that the task is by no means a straightforward one. The survival of Roman coins is variable and so attempts to reconstruct the size and distribution of issues calls for skilled and experienced analysis. This collection of papers provides evidence for the kind of deductions that the historian may make from Roman coins as well as the illustrations of the pitfalls that await the unwary. Those interested in Roman history amateur coin collectors and professional numismatists will all find much here to widen their knowledge of the public context of Roman coins. Contributors: William E.

‎THE TWO WORLDS OF THE POET New Perspectives on Vergil‎

‎Wayne State University Press. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 1992. Hardcover. 0814324509 . Very light shelfwear to book and DJ else fine. ; This collection of essays honors Alexander Gordon McKay one of the most respected names in Vergilian studies. Written by some of the world's leading scholars the essays offer new perspectives on the larger Vergilian world which Dr. McKay's scholarship has so richly illuminated. The Two Worlds of the Poet focuses primarily on Vergil and Augustan literature and art with several essays that expand the Vergilian theme and reflect the wide research interests of Professor McKay in such areas of classical studies as literature art architecture painting and sculpture. Vergil's world presents two faces each inseparable from the other-the world which formed the poet and the world which the poet himself created—and it is proper that a volume which commemorates a scholar whose own work has elucidated both of these worlds should address itself to each. Several essays examine the poet's modus creandi—his use of the simile; his assimilation of the language and motifs of Roman comic drama; his exploitation of the rich store of Greek Etruscan and Roman mythological legendary and historical material; and his treatment of a variety of themes which touch upon the very essence of the human condition. Other essays touch upon various aspects of Vergil's material and cultural environment enabling readers to place his created work in a broader perspective. Contributors offer new perspectives on the post-classical treatment of Vergilian themes illustrating how the reception of Vergil varied with successive generations. The volume concludes with the reflections of the senior statesman of Vergilian criticism upon the scholar's art and mission. Vergil knew that to understand the present it was essential to break out of the narrow circle of the moment and to reach into the past thereby affirming our own humanity and our place in the world and finding paths into the future. Vergil and his poetry create evocative connections that cut across time and place and culture providing a glimpse at the universal human experience. The essays in The Two Worlds of the Poet explore Vergil's own struggle to find his place in the world chronicle the pathway by which we gain entry into the world of the poet and examine how the world of the poet has influenced and enriched our world. ; Classical Studies Pedagogy Series; 548 pages .

Else book is fine. ; Many generations of readers have noticed the prominence given to children and to heroes--usually young men--in the poems of Vergil and his contemporary Catullus. But until now it has not always been clear why Vergil and Catullus employ these characters or what readers are to make of these sometimes odd figures. In The Child and the Hero: Coming of Age in Catullus and Vergil Mark Petrini thoughtfully explores this group of characters and helps illuminate their places in the poems. After offering a brief introduction describing the world in which such characters find themselves the author studies in greater detail the key figures of Pallas Nisus and Euryalus and Iulus--in whom the future of Rome lies. Readers learn the links between these figures and literary characters who come before and after and the author thus helps the reader perceive the many levels on which Vergilian and Catullan poems resonate. ; 9.6 X 6.4 X 0.7 inches; 152 pages .
