O'Hara, James J.
DEATH AND THE OPTIMISTIC PROPHECY IN VERGIL'S AENEID
Princeton University Press. Very Good- in Very Good dust jacket. 1990. Hardcover. 0691068151 . Minor Soiling to foreedges of about 5 pages. Dampstaining to lower corners of boards. Gift inscription from author to R. E. Fantham: "For Elaine with thanks and hospitality Jim" in pencil to ffep. Else book is VG. DJ spine sunned. Minor shelfwear to DJ. ; Here James O'Hara shows how the deceptive nature of prophecy in the Aeneid complicates assessment of the poem's attitude toward its hero's achievement and toward the future of Rome under Augustus Caesar. This close study of the language and rhetorical context of the prophecies reveals that they regularly suppress discouraging material: the gods send promising messages to Aeneas and others to spur them on in their struggles but these struggles often lead to untimely deaths or other disasters only darkly hinted at by the prophecies. O'Hara finds in these prophecies a persistent subtext that both stresses the human cost of Aeneas' mission and casts doubt on Jupiter's promise to Venus of an "endless empire" for the Romans. O'Hara considers the major prophecies that look confidently toward Augustus' Rome from the standpoint of Vergil's readers who like the characters within the poem must struggle with the possibility that the optimism of the prophecies of Rome is undercut by darker material partially suppressed. The study shows that Vergil links the deception of his characters to the deceptiveness of Roman oratory politics and religion and to the artifice of poetry itself. In response to recent debates about whether the Aeneid is optimistic or pessimistic O'Hara argues that Vergil expresses both the Romans' hope for the peace of a Golden Age under Augustus and their fear that this hope might be illusory. ; 224 pages .

Petrini, Mark J.
THE CHILD AND THE HERO Coming of Age in Catullus and Vergil
University of Michigan Press. Very Good in Near Fine dust jacket. 1997. Hardcover. 0472104608 . Former owner's blindstamp to ffep. 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 .

Light bumping to upper corners of boards. Else minor shelfwear to book and DJ. ; 0.61 x 8.46 x 5.5 Inches; 264 pages; The Aeneid can strike one as a relatively conventional epic an objective heroic tale of Rome's beginnings. Vergil designed it so that it might read in this way. This is one epic `voice' that he wished us to hear. But there are `further voices' and these may be disturbing even shocking as they add to comment upon question and occasionally subvert the implications of the epic voice. This is a detailed examination of Vergil's method of intruding such further voices. . Oxford Clarendon Press hardcover

ROMAN LITERARY CULTURE From Cicero to Apuleius
The Johns Hopkins University Press. Near Fine. 1999. Softcover. 0801862019 . Minor shelfwear. ; Ancient Society and History; 352 pages; Scholars of ancient literature have often focused on the works and lives of major authors rather than on such questions as how these works were produced and who read them. In Roman Literary Culture Elaine Fantham fills that void by examining the changing social and historical context of literary production in ancient Rome and its empire. Fantham discusses the habits of Roman readers and developments in their means of access to literature from booksellers and copyists to pirated publications and libraries. She examines the issues of patronage and the utility of literature. She shows how the constraints of the physical object itselfthe ancient "book"influenced the practice of both reading and writing. And she explores the ways in which ancient criticism and critical attitudes reflected cultural assumptions of the time. . The Johns Hopkins University Press paperback

Cambridge University Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1993. Hardcover. 0521417171 . Minor shelfwear. Light bump to 1 corner. ; This book applies some of the procedures of modern critical theory to the interpretation of Latin poetry. The author argues for an approach that sees the meaning of a text as always and necessarily involved in the process of "reception" that is the way it has been read and interpreted from the time of its composition down to the present day. A study of its reception-history facilitates novel and more profitable ways of reading. He illustrates his approach with exemplary readings of Virgil Ovid Horace and Lucan. ; Roman Literature And Its Contexts; 8.1 X 5.3 X 0.6 inches; 135 pages . Cambridge University Press hardcover

Else book is fine. ; By imaginatively recreating the play's original staging and debunking the interpretations of various critics including Aristotle Ulrich von Wilamowitz-Moellendorff E. R. Dodds Frederick Ahl and John Peradotto Griffith shows that Apollo is a constant powerful presence throughout the play. He contends that although we can sympathize with Oedipus because of his sufferings he is still morally responsible for murdering his father and sleeping with his mother. Apollo is therefore not indifferent and his actions are not unjust. Griffith focuses on Apollo's commandment "know thyself" a commandment Oedipus belatedly and tragically fulfils to stress both the need for self-understanding in the study of ancient literature and the usefulness of ancient literature in achieving self-understanding. ; 160 pages .

Herbert Brown Geraldine
OVID AND THE FASTI An Historical Study
Oxford Clarendon Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1994. Hardcover. 0198149352 . Foxing/dustsoiling to top of textblock. Very light shelfwear to DJ with light foxing. ; Ovid's Fasti has remained curiously neglected as an historical source for the period in which it was written. This new study reveals that the poem of some five thousand lines on the Roman calendar written and revised in the years between A. D. 4-16 provides students of the Augustan age with a wealth of information both about the author himself and about his cultural and political environment. In addition to revelations about the way in which Augustus and his family were incorporated into the ancient religion of the city of Rome and details of the last decade of Augustus' life and the first years of Tiberius' rule Herbert-Brown finds in the poem new evidence of the processes which marked the transition from the Republic to Empire. ; Oxford Classical Monographs; 264 pages .

Aeschylus; Alan H. Sommerstein (Ed. )
AESCHYLUS: EUMENIDES
Cambridge University Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1989. Hardcover. 0521240840 . Scholar's bookplate to inner cover G. P. Goold. Foxing/dustsoiling to top of textblock. Minor edgewear to DJ. ; Cambridge Greek and Latin Classics; 324 pages; Sommerstein presents a freshly constituted text with introduction and commentary of Eumenides the climactic play of the only surviving complete Greek tragic trilogy the Oresteia of Aeschylus. Of all Athenian tragic dramas Eumenides is most consciously designed to be relevant to the situation of the Athenian state at the time of its performance 458 B.C. and seems to have contained daring innovations both in technique and in ideas. The introduction and commentary to this edition seek to bring out how Aeschylus shaped to his purpose the legends he inherited and ended the tragic story of Agamemnon's family in a celebration of Athenian civic unity and justice. The commentary also pays attention to the linguistic metrical and textual problems to be encountered by the reader. . Cambridge University Press hardcover
