MARTIAL: SELECTED EPIGRAMS
Cambridge University Press. Very Good. 2006. Softcover. 0521555396 . Spine a bit creased. Light wear to corners. Light pencilling. Scholar's name to inner cover Mark Possanza. ; Cambridge Greek and Latin Classics; 388 pages; This volume fulfills the need for a student edition of Horace's literary epistles which have recently been the subject of renewed scholarly interest. Professor Rudd provides a clear introduction to each of the three poems: the Epistles to Augustus to Florus and to the Pisones the so-called "Ars Poetica". He sketches the historical context in which the poems were written and comments on their structure and purpose. He also discusses their literary preoccupations: the relations of poet and patron and the role of poetry in the state Augustus the problems of a professedly tiring poet Florus and the presentation of classical poetic theory "Ars Poetica". He notes Horace's influence on later criticism drawing attention in one section to one of Alexander Pope's Imitations. He also addresses problems of grammar and style focusing on linguistic difficulties and the subtle movement of the poet's thought. . Cambridge University Press paperback

Anderson, William S.
BARBARIAN PLAY Plautus' Roman Comedy
University of Toronto Press Scholarly Publishing Division. Near Fine. 1996. Softcover. 0802079415 . Very Light shelfwear. ; In this volume William S. Anderson sets Plautus who wrote Rome's earliest surviving poetry in his rightful place among the Greek and Roman writers of what we know as New Comedy fourth to second centuries. Anderson begins by defining major innovations that Plautus made on inherited Greek New Comedy Menander Philemon and Diphilus transforming it from romantic domestic drama to a celebration of rollicking family anarchy. He shows how Plautus diminished the traditional importance of love and replaced it with a new major theme: 'heroic badness' especially embodied in the rogue slave ancestor of the impudent servant valet or maid. Anderson then examines the unique verbal texture of Plautus' drama and demonstrates his revolt against realism his drive to have his characters defy everyday circumstances and pit their intrepid linguistic wit against social order their Roman extravagant impudence against Greek self-control. Finally Anderson explores the special form of metatheatre that we admire in Plautus by which he undermines the assumptions of his Greek models' and replaces them with a new confident Roman comedy. ; Robson Classical Lectures; 194 pages .

Scholar's name to ffep Carolyn Dewald. ; 218 pages; After the death of Pericles a new breed of politicians--men like Cleon Cleophon and Hyperbolus--came to power in Athens. Rejecting the traditional source of political support the bonds of friendship philia in favor of direct appeals to the people demos they signaled the emergence of a new pattern of politics. The author traces the development of this new pattern--often misunderstood often branded "demagogy" by both ancient and modern writers--by investigating the nature of political and social organization in Athens and the vocabulary of Greek politics. .
