AUTHOR AND AUDIENCE IN LATIN LITERATURE
Cambridge University Press. Very Good in Near Fine dust jacket. 1992. Hardcover. 0521383072 . Scholar's bookplate to inner cover G. P. Goold else Book is fine. Very Minor shelfwear to DJ ; The relationship between the author and his audience has received much critical attention from scholars in non-classical disciplines yet the nature of much ancient literature and of its 'publication' meant that audiences in ancient times were more immediate to their authors than in the modern world. This book contains essays by distinguished scholars on the various means by which Latin authors communicated effectively with their audiences. The authors and works covered are Cicero Catullus Lucretius Propertius Horace's Odes Virgil's Aeneid Ovid's Metamorphoses Senecan tragedy Persius Pliny's letters Tacitus' Annals and medieval love lyric. Contributors have provided detailed analyses of particular passages in order to throw light on the many different ways in which authors catered for their audiences by fulfilling manipulating and thwarting their expectations; and in an epilogue the editors have drawn together the issues raised by these contributions and have attempted to place them in an appropriate critical context. ; 292 pages .

CREATIVE IMITATION AND LATIN LITERATURE
Cambridge University Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1979. Hardcover. 0521226686 . Scholar's bookplate to inner cover G. P. Goold. Else very minor shelfwear to book and DJ. ; The poets and prose-writers of Greece and Rome were acutely conscious of their literary heritage. They expressed this consciousness in the regularity with which in their writings they imitated and alluded to the great authors who had preceded them. Such imitation was generally not regarded as plagiarism but as essential to the creation of a new literary work: imitating one's predecessors was in no way incompatible with originality or progress. These views were not peculiar to the writers of Greece and Rome but were adopted by many others who have written in the 'classical tradition' right up to modern times. Creative Imitation and Latin Literature is an exploration of this concept of imitation. The contributors analyse selected passages from various authors - Greek Latin and English - in order to demonstrate how Latin authors created new works of art by imitating earlier passages of literature. ; 255 pages . Cambridge University Press hardcover

QUALITY AND PLEASURE IN LATIN POETRY
Cambridge University Press. Very Good in Very Good- dust jacket. 1974. Hardcover. 0521205328 . Gift inscription from David West to G. P. Goold on ffep. Very Minor shelfwear to book. DJ has minor chipping along top edge. DJ is price-clipped. ; These studies of Latin poetry were commissioned with two main purposes in mind: to encourage a fresh reading of several Latin poets from the time of Catullus to Horace and to illustrate various critical approaches to literature. As the literary study of Latin developed in schools and universities there was a proliferation of critical techniques which were greeted with bewilderment by some with hostility by others. This book does not attempt to adjudicate finally between them. There can be no one 'prescription' for interpreting poetry; but this does not mean that there are no valid standards of judgement. Criticism must be flexible imaginative and sympathetic but it must also be rigourous. To counteract feelings of disorientation the editors tried to provide samples of the best critical work in progress at the time of publication. ; 173 pages; Signed by One Author .

The Johns Hopkins University Press. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 1994. Hardcover. 0801849233 . Minor shelfwear. Dustjacket is protected in mylar. ; Eros in Mourning begins with a reading of the Iliad that shows how Homer not yet influenced by the ideology of transcendence analyzes the structure of unassuageable mourning in a way that is as up-to-date as the latest poststructuralism. Then in readings of Dante Hamlet La Princess de Clèves Heart of Darkness and Lacan Staten depicts the "thanato-erotic" hysteria that is set off by the specter of the dead and decomposing body that is also the body of sexual love and which in the "transcendentalizing" tradition is more female than male. Yet St. John certain troubadours and Milton offer glimpses of a more affirmative relation to "eros in mourning. " ; 9.5 x 1 x 6.5 Inches; 248 pages . The Johns Hopkins University Press hardcover

HOMER AND THE ARTISTS Text and Picture in Early Greek Art
Cambridge University Press. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1998. Hardcover. 0521620228 . Very minor shelfwear. ; This is a study of the works of art from early Greece that have long been presented as "illustrations to Homer " but that are argued here to be nothing of the kind. Early Greek artists showed no preference for Homeric subjects and when their interests did coincide with Homer's treated his account as at best one of the possible variants. Close descriptive analysis of texts and pictures and of the artists' aims together with statistical evidence provide the basis for the argument. ; 0.43 x 8.29 x 5.91 Inches; 200 pages .

THE DAILY LIFE OF THE GREEK GODS
Stanford University Press. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 2000. Hardcover. 0804736138 . Dustjacket is protected in mylar. ; Despite the rousing stories of male heroism in battles the Trojan War transcended the activities of its human participants. For Homer it was the gods who conducted and accounted for what happened. In the first part of this book the authors find in Homer s Iliad material for exploring the everyday life of the Greek gods: what their bodies were made of and how they were nourished the organization of their society and the sort of life they led both in Olympus and in the human world. The gods are divided in their human nature: at once a fantasized model of infinite joys and an edifying example of engagement in the world they have loves festivities and quarrels. In the second part the authors show how citizens carried on everyday relations with the gods and those who would become the Olympians inviting them to reside with humans organized in cities. At the heart of rituals and of social life the gods were omnipresent: in sacrifices at meals in political assemblies in war in sexuality. In brief the authors show how the gods were indispensable to the everyday social organization of Greek cities. ; Mestizo Spaces; 0.71 x 8.5 x 5.56 Inches; 287 pages .

Stanley, Keith
THE SHIELD OF HOMER Narrative Structure in the Iliad
Princeton University Press. Very Good in Near Fine dust jacket. 1993. Hardcover. 0691069387 . Light bump to 1 corner. Faint foxing to top of textblock. Very light shelfwear to DJ. Dustjacket is protected in mylar. ; 1.25 x 9.75 x 6.75 Inches; 492 pages; In this masterly interpretation of narrative sequence in the Iliad Keith Stanley not only sharpens the current debate over the date and creation of the poem but also challenges the view of this work as primarily a celebration of heroic force. He begins by studying the intricate ring-composition in the verses describing Achilles' shield then extends this analysis to reveal the Iliad as an elaborate and self-conscious formal whole. In so doing he defends the hypothesis that the poem as we know it is a massive reorganization and expansion of earlier "Homeric" material written in response to the need for a stable text for repeated performance at the sixth-century Athenian festival for the city's patron goddess. Stanley explores the arrangement of the poem's books all unified by theme and structure showing how this allowed for artistically satisfying and practically feasible recitation over a period of three or four days. Taking structural emphasis as a guide to poetic discourse the author argues that the Iliad is not a poem of "might"--as opposed to the Odyssean celebration of "guile"--but that in advocating social and personal reconciliation the poem offers a profound indictment of a warring heroic society. .

Vivante, Paolo
HOMERIC RHYTHM A Philosophical Study
Greenwood Press. Fine with no dust jacket. 1997. Hardcover. 0313303630 . In a follow-up to his previous Homeric studies noted classicist Paolo Vivante explores Homer's verse highlighting rhythm rather than metre. Rhythmical qualities he argues constitute the force of the verse For example in the way the words take position and in the way each pause hints suspense producing an immediate sense of time. Vivante's main concern is not with the techniques or rules of the verse-composition but more philosophically with verse itself as a fundamental form of human expression. This study will be of interest to both students and scholars. ; Contributions to the Study of World Literature 82; 176 pages . Greenwood Press hardcover
