Rufinus; Denys Page
THE EPIGRAMS OF RUFINUS Edited with an Introduction and Commentary
Cambridge University Press. Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1978. First Edition. Hardcover. 0521217679 . Scholar's bookplate to inner cover G. P. Goold. Foxing/dustsoiling to top of textblock. Dustjacket spine is sunned. Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing to extremities. ; Cambridge Classical Texts and Commentaries; 124 pages; Nothing is known of the Greek poet Rufinus other than that he was the author of a collection of thirty-nine epigrams. In fact he is such an insubstantial figure that his date has been placed at various points within nearly half a millennium. Professor Page here presents a text of Rufinus' poems and a concise commentary on them. In his introduction he considers the criteria by which a date may be established and finds evidence in favour of the fourth century AD. . Cambridge University Press hardcover

Wiles, David
THE MASKS OF MENANDER Sign and Meaning in Greek and Roman Performance
Cambridge University Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1991. Hardcover. 0521401356 . Scholar's bookplate to inner cover G. P. Goold. Foxing/dustsoiling to top of textblock. Minor shelfwear. ; 1.06 x 9.33 x 6.26 Inches; 287 pages; This book provides a detailed analysis of the conventions and techniques of performance characteristic of the Greek theatre of Menander and the subsequent Roman theatre of Plautus and Terence. Drawing on literary and archaeological sources and on scientific treatises David Wiles identifies the mask as crucial to the actor's art and shows how sophisticated the art of the mask-maker became. He also examines the other main elements which the audience learned to decode: costume voice movement etc. In order to identify features that were unique to Hellenistic theatre he contrasts Greek New Comedy with other traditions of masked comedy and shows how different Roman conventions of performance rest upon different underlying assumptions about religion marriage and class. David Wiles offers theatre historians and classicists a radical new approach to reading play texts. His book will also be useful to archaeologists seeking to understand what masks mean and how Greek and Roman theatres were used. . Cambridge University Press hardcover

VIRGIL'S AUGUSTAN EPIC
Cambridge University Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1989. Hardcover. 0521353580 . Foxing/dustsoiling to top of textblock. DJ has minor edgewear. ; An examination of the main characters in the Aeneid - Aeneas himself Dido and Turnus - in the light of Virgil's contemporary Augustan political and literary ideology. 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

MACHON: THE FRAGMENTS Edited with an Introduction and Commentary
Cambridge University Press. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1965. First Edition. Hardcover. 0521056314 . Very light shelfwear to book. DJ is price-clipped. DJ has 1 small tear with very minor chipping. ; Machon was a writer of Comedies who lived and worked in Alexandria in the middle of the third century B. C. All of his work that survives is preserved in the Deipnosophistae of Athenaeus who besides two fragments of Comedies of no great importance quotes also 462 verses from a collection of anecdotes which Machon called Xpeiai. These anecdotes are written in the iambic verse of Comedy. They are concerned with the doings and sayings of courtesans parasites and musicians sometimes in relation to persons of historical importance. They are often scabrous but also not infrequently amusing; and they are of considerable interest both as documents of social history and as a type of literature which though popular in antiquity has hardly survived. The Xpeiai which present many problems of reading and interpretation have never before been separately edited. Recent editors of Athenaeus have improved the text; but to find commentaries it is necessary to go back to Casaubon's edition of Athenaeus published in 1600 and to Schweighauser's published in 1801-7. ; Cambridge Classical Texts and Commentaries 1; 172 pages .
