Harris, William V.
RESTRAINING RAGE The Ideology of Anger Control in Classical Antiquity
Harvard University Press. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 2001. Hardcover. 0674006186 . Very faint shelfwear Else book is fine. DJ has light edgewear with a bit of creasing. Dustjacket is protected in plastic sleeve. ; The angry emotions and the problems they presented were an ancient Greek preoccupation from Homer to late antiquity. From the first lines of the Iliad to the church fathers of the fourth century A. D. the control or elimination of rage was an obsessive concern. From the Greek world it passed to the Romans. Drawing on a wide range of ancient texts and on recent work in anthropology and psychology Restraining Rage explains the rise and persistence of this concern. W. V. Harris shows that the discourse of anger-control was of crucial importance in several different spheres in politics--both republican and monarchical--in the family and in the slave economy. He suggests that it played a special role in maintaining male domination over women. He explores the working out of these themes in Attic tragedy in the great Greek historians in Aristotle and the Hellenistic philosophers and in many other kinds of texts. From the time of Plato onward educated Greeks developed a strong conscious interest in their own psychic health. Emotional control was part of this. Harris offers a new theory to explain this interest and a history of the anger-therapy that derived from it. He ends by suggesting some contemporary lessons that can be drawn from the Greek and Roman experience. ; 480 pages . Harvard University Press hardcover

Kirkwood, G. M.
A STUDY OF SOPHOCLEAN DRAMA
Cornell University Press. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1958. Hardcover. Scholar's bookplate to inner cover G. P. Goold. Spine lightly sunned. Foxing/dustsoiling to top of textblock. ; Although many commentators have dealt with various aspects of structure in Sophoclean drama G. M. Kirkwood contends that "Sophocles' mastery of dramatic form is accepted with casual and superficial deference rather than fully and clearly understood." This book shows how Sophocles' method of presenting character his unique handling of myth his predilection for presenting ideas by comparison and contrast and his principles of structure are so closely related that they serve to clarify each other. In an analysis of the form of Sophocles' seven extant plays Kirkwood demonstrates the existence of several deliberate and distinct types of dramatic construction. Sophocles' use of the chorus his irony and certain aspects of diction are considered as a part of his dramatic art and as elements of structure. Kirkwood discusses a number of traditional problems among them questions of consistency and meaning in passages from Ajax Antigone and Electra. He also considers the problem of "diptych" structure and shows that it is a definite dramatic shape of primary importance in understanding the three plays in which it appears. ; Cornell Studies in Classical Philology Vol. 31; 328 pages .
