Wilkinson, L. P.
OVID SURVEYED An Abridgement for the General Reader of 'ovid Recalled'
Cambridge University Press. Very Good-. 1962. Softcover. 0521091764 . Spine creased and a little discolored. Rubbing to wraps. Sticker stains to front wrap. Scholar's small label to half-title Hugh J. Mason. Clean text. ; Ovid was despite his faults what Macaulay called him 'a good fellow'. But he was also a wit the product of an age of refinement. More important he was an artist with conscious mastery of a great range of literary artifice; his poetry has a studied movement a grace a rich and patterned surface a music that have appealed to readers and writers with an ear for ' technique' ever since. In this 1962 volume Mr Wilkinson writes to communicate his own evident enjoyment and understanding of Ovid's fortunes. A life tells what is known of the poet and serves as a framework to the account of the poetry. This book an abridgement of Ovid Recalled is designed particularly for those who have no Latin: no special knowledge is assumed and the ample quotation is translated into heroic couplets. The result is a delightful and serviceable introduction to Ovid. ; 235 pages . Cambridge University Press paperback

Some minor shelfwear to DJ. ; Lucretius' De Rerum Natura is a philosophical epic devoted to the exposition of Epicurean philosophy. Since the system was materialistic and highly critical of myth and poetry Lucretius' use of mythological language and imagery is surprising. Dr. Gale considers the poem against the background of earlier and contemporary views of myth and suggests that Lucretius was well aware of the tension between his two roles as poet and philosopher and attempted to resolve it by developing a bold and innovative theory of myth and poetry. ; Cambridge Classical Studies; 276 pages .

Sticker damage to bottom corner of front wrap. R. E.

The characters and the plot and incident of the epic are seen as embodying and exemplifying first the ancient ideals of kingship and concord and second the Roman self-identification as at once 'Italian' and 'Trojan' and finally as reflecting the literary self-evaluation of the Augustan age. In the literary area Virgil's relations with contemporary Roman elegy with early Greek lyric and most important with Homer are studied and reevaluated. Virgilian scholars and students of Augustan literature in general will find this book of interest to them. ; 296 pages . Cambridge University Press hardcover

Wilhelm, Robert M. & Howard Jones (Eds. ) & (Alexander Gordon McKay)
THE TWO WORLDS OF THE POET New Perspectives on Vergil
Wayne State University Press. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1992. Hardcover. 0814324509 . Very light shelfwear to book else fine. DJ has light edgewear. ; This collection of essays honors Alexander Gordon McKay one of the most respected names in Vergilian studies. Written by some of the world's leading scholars the essays offer new perspectives on the larger Vergilian world which Dr. McKay's scholarship has so richly illuminated. The Two Worlds of the Poet focuses primarily on Vergil and Augustan literature and art with several essays that expand the Vergilian theme and reflect the wide research interests of Professor McKay in such areas of classical studies as literature art architecture painting and sculpture. Vergil's world presents two faces each inseparable from the other-the world which formed the poet and the world which the poet himself createdand it is proper that a volume which commemorates a scholar whose own work has elucidated both of these worlds should address itself to each. Several essays examine the poet's modus creandihis use of the simile; his assimilation of the language and motifs of Roman comic drama; his exploitation of the rich store of Greek Etruscan and Roman mythological legendary and historical material; and his treatment of a variety of themes which touch upon the very essence of the human condition. Other essays touch upon various aspects of Vergil's material and cultural environment enabling readers to place his created work in a broader perspective. Contributors offer new perspectives on the post-classical treatment of Vergilian themes illustrating how the reception of Vergil varied with successive generations. The volume concludes with the reflections of the senior statesman of Vergilian criticism upon the scholar's art and mission. Vergil knew that to understand the present it was essential to break out of the narrow circle of the moment and to reach into the past thereby affirming our own humanity and our place in the world and finding paths into the future. Vergil and his poetry create evocative connections that cut across time and place and culture providing a glimpse at the universal human experience. The essays in The Two Worlds of the Poet explore Vergil's own struggle to find his place in the world chronicle the pathway by which we gain entry into the world of the poet and examine how the world of the poet has influenced and enriched our world. ; Classical Studies Pedagogy Series; 548 pages .

Fantham in pencil with her pencil underlining and marginalia to some pages. 1 page has very light soiling tea . DJ has tear to upper corner 1 cm with chipping to spine ends and rubbed area to top of DJ spine. ; 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 .

Farrell, Joseph
VERGIL'S GEORGICS AND THE TRADITIONS OF ANCIENT EPIC The Art of Allusion in Literary History
Oxford University Press. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1991. Hardcover. 0195067061 . Gift inscription from author to R. E. Fantham on ffep. Else book is fine. DJ has very light shelfwear with 1 tiny chip to one corner. ; In this important and original new book Joseph Farrell argues that there is a detailed and extensive program of literary allusion in Vergil's Georgics moving basically from Hesiod and Aratus in the first book to Lucretius in the middle two to Homer in the fourth. This program involves what he calls "analytic" allusion namely a reconstruction or interpretation of the texts alluded to; and he contends the direction of the allusion moving from Hesiod and perhaps Alexandrian poetics toward Homer and heroic epic helps to clarify the development of Vergil's poetic career which moves from the Callimacheanism of the Eclogues to the full-fledged epic of the Aeneid. Applying to the Georgics the full range of recent scholarly methodology Farrell's pathbreaking book will be of great interest to all scholars and students of Vergil classical literature and literary allusion. ; 416 pages .

Conte, Gian Biagio
THE HIDDEN AUTHOR An Interpretation of Petronius's Satyricon
University of California Press. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1997. Hardcover. 0520207157 . Paperclip indent to first 2 pages. Else book is fine. DJ has very minor shelfwear. ; The Satyricon of Petronius a comic novel written in the first century A. D. is famous today primarily for its amazing banquet tale "Trimalchio's Feast." But this episode is only one part of the larger picture of life during Nero's rule presented in the work. In this accessible discussion of Petronius's masterful use of parody Gian Biagio Conte offers an interpretation of the Satyricon as a whole. He combines the scholarly precision of close reading with a significant original theoretical model. At the heart of his interpretation Conte reveals the technique of the "hidden author" that Petronius employs at the expense of his characters in particular the teller of the story Enclopius. By remaining hidden outside the narrative Petronius invites the reader to smile at the folies de grandeur that occur in a culture of scholars and declaimers. Yet as Conte shows behind the parody and inexhaustible humor of the Satyricon lies an unexpectedly serious lament. For those familiar with the Satyricon as well as for new readers Conte's book will be a reliable enjoyable guide to the wonders the Satyricon contains. ; Sather Classical Lectures 60; 224 pages .

Thomas, Richard Felstead
READING VIRGIL AND HIS TEXTS Studies in Intertextuality
University of Michigan Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 2000. Hardcover. 0472108972 . 1 corner bumped. Minor shelfwear. Light pencil marginalia to a couple of pages. DJ has some minor creasing. ; There has long been vital interest in the ways that texts affect each other--through translation imitation parody and other forms of emulation and subversion. Throughout the last two millennia the Virgilian text has created its own intertextual heritage persisting in the works of Eliot Frost Lowell and Heaney. Richard F. Thomas's new volume demonstrates that such control and manipulation of the inherited tradition is to be found with great intensity in the very author who in turn created his own complex tradition. The articles and notes included in this volume have been selected for their diachronic aspect in addition to the synchronic status they had in their original context. Dealing with the intricate ways in which Virgil and in the introductory chapter his predecessor Catullus manipulated and appropriated their inherited Greek and Roman literary tradition this book presents a coherent profile through these detailed studies of the mechanics of one of the most dynamic periods in the literary history of any culture. Richard Thomas--one of the most important voices in Latin literary studies today--shows little anxiety about objections to authorial intentionality. Throughout there is a working assumption that intertextual connections can be established and further that functions and purposes even intended ones may be inferred from those connections. This book will be of interest to scholars and students of Greek and Latin literature but will also be of great value to students of medieval Renaissance and early modern vernacular literatures most of whose poets see themselves as closely connected to Virgil. ; 360 pages .

Slight damage to upper edge of DJ. ; Roman Imperial Biographies; 0.95 x 9.43 x 6.38 Inches; 271 pages; Augustus the heir to Julius Caesar was the guiding light in the transformation of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire. In this biography Pat Southern traces the life and works of the emperor chronologically presenting idealogy and events as they occurred from Augustus' point of view including his transition from heir and successor of Julius Caesar to head of the new Principate and his development of the Roman Empire. Augustus did not have a master plan of politics and legislation but instead he had to wait and occasionally change course before he settled on a version of government that the Senate and people found acceptable. While there have been many books covering the political social and aesthetic culture of the Augustan Age this is the first book to present the life of Augustus the man. . Routledge hardcover

ROMAN RELIGION IN VALERIUS MAXIMUS
Routledge. Very Good in Good dust jacket. 2002. Hardcover. 0415271088 . Faint staining to lower section of front inner cover and small stain 1cm to first 2 pages. Staining to lower section of DJ the reverse section cannot be seen unless DJ is removed. Small scratches to rear panel of DJ. ; Routledge Classical Monographs; 288 pages; Valerius Maximus was an indefatigable collector of historical anecdotes illustrating vice and virtue. His Memorable Deeds and Sayings are unparalleled as a source for the opinions of Romans in the early empire on a vast range of subjects. Mueller focuses on what Valerius can tell us about contemporary Roman attitudes to religion attacking several orthodoxies along the way. He argues that Roman religion could be deeply emotional. That it was possible to believe passionately in the divinity of the emperor - even when like Tiberius he was still alive - and that Rome's gods and religious rituals had an important role in fostering conventional morality. The study further explores elements of ancient rhetoric Roman historiography and Tiberian Rome. The fact that Valerius was a contemporary of Jesus means his work is also valuable in reflecting the attitudes and beliefs of the ruling class to which Christ and his followers were politically subject and which formed the background to the growth and persecution of Christianity. .
