‎APOLLO AUGUSTUS AND THE POETS‎

‎Cambridge University Press. Fine in Fine dust jacket. 2009. Hardcover. 0521516838 . Apollo's importance in the religion of the Roman state was markedly heightened by the emperor Augustus who claimed a special affiliation with the god. Contemporary poets variously responded to this appropriation of Phoebus Apollo both participating in the construction of an imperial symbolism and resisting that ideological project. This book offers a synoptic study of 'Augustan' Apollo in Augustan poetry. Topics explored include the divine self-imaging of late Republican rivals for power poetic imaginings of Apollo's intervention at the pivotal battle of Actium how poets 'read' Augustus' new Palatine Temple of Apollo and the deity's role in the reconstituted Saecular Games and Apollo's key position in the emerging dialectic between poetics - as traditional divine patron of music and literature - and politics - as patron of Augustus. Discussions encompass the major Latin poets Horace Virgil Tibullus Propertius Ovid as well as anonymous voices in poetic lampoons encomia and contemporary Greek verse. ; 422 pages .

‎THE MAKING OF ROMAN INDIA‎

‎Cambridge University Press. Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 2008. Hardcover. 0521858348 . Book is fine. Front DJ flap creased. 1 very tiny chip to DJ. ; Latin and especially Greek texts of the imperial period contain a wealth of references to 'India'. Professor Parker offers a survey of such texts read against a wide range of other sources both archaeological and documentary. He emphasises the social processes whereby the notion of India gained its exotic features including the role of the Persian empire and of Alexander's expedition. Three kinds of social context receive special attention: the trade in luxury commodities; the political discourse of empire and its limits; and India's status as a place of special knowledge embodied in 'naked philosophers'. Roman ideas about India ranged from the specific and concrete to the wildly fantastic and the book attempts to account for such variety. It ends by considering the afterlife of such ideas into late antiquity and beyond. ; Greek Culture in the Roman World; 374 pages . Cambridge University Press hardcover‎

‎HISTORIOGRAPHY AT THE END OF THE REPUBLIC Provincial Perspectives on Roman Rule‎

‎Oxford University Press. Fine in Fine dust jacket. 2006. Hardcover. 0199277540 . This study of six historians from the edges of the Roman world at the end of the Republic--the author of I Maccabees Posidonius Diodorus Siculus Pompeius Trogus Nicolaus of Damascus and Memnon of Heraclea--combines discussion of their biographical details the intellectual and elite culture in which they composed and the methodological difficulties of interpreting fragmentary texts with textual analysis of their representations of Rome. These authors show remarkable unity in their acceptance of Roman hegemony. Nevertheless their interpretations of Roman rule assume political significance in the light of their intentions in writing and the audiences whom they addressed. They therefore provide a unique insight into the minds of the conquered peoples and the intellectual culture which allowed them to influence their conquerors. ; Oxford Classical Monographs; 416 pages .

DJ spine sunned with a bit of sunning to panels. ; No historian of ancient Rome in this century has had a greater influence on historical research or won greater international acclaim than Sir Ronald Syme 1903-89. His outstanding position was due mainly to his first two books The Roman Revolution which appeared in 1939 and Tacitus two volumes 1958 - although he went on to produce many more monographs and seven volumes of his Roman Papers have so far appeared. The long gap between his first two books is partly explained by the war which took him on official duties to Belgrade and Ankara and he spent the years 1943-5 at Istanbul as Professor of Classical Philology. It was known that in spite of the war Syme had continued to write in these years in particular 'Strabonia' investigations into the famous ancient Geography composed by Strabo a native of Asia Minor in the time of Augustus. After Syme's death the manuscript was discovered among his papers: he had not quite completed the work but what he had written with almost complete annotation represents a substantial and fascinating study of the historical geography of Anatolia in the Hellenistic and early Roman period. Syme ruthlessly dissects the often incoherent and inconsistent text of Strabo at the same time providing rich detail on client kings Roman generals and emperors writers and travellers. Above all he shows unequalled ability to understand the landscape and settlement of Anatolia. ; 424 pages . Oxford University Press hardcover‎
