RHETORIC IN THE REST OF THE WEST
Cambridge Scholars Publishing. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 2010. Hardcover. 1443821640 . Book is fine. DJ has very light shelfwear else fine. ; While the study of the history of rhetoric has expanded to include an ever-growing range of rhetorical traditions lesser-known figures and under- and un-studied texts it has continued to exist in the hermetically sealed binary of West and Rest. Rhetorical scholars have begun uncovering the many marginalized rhetorical traditions silenced by the homogenous nature of our histories themselves reading and writing new histories of the rhetorical tradition through frames from gender to geography. Despite these substantial challenges to the traditionally received history of rhetoric many voices are still silenced and many spaces are still excluded - voices speaking within the spaces of the less-than-monolithic West itself. This silencing and excluding continues perhaps because of assumptions that no texts exist from these marginalized voices or that substantial rhetorical activity was not conducted in these marginalized spaces - regardless of already extant evidence of rhetorical activity as diverse as rural civic ethos in Classical Greece and Etruscan influences on Roman rhetoric or long-standing passive knowledge of scholarly activity in Medieval Andalusia and Ireland. 'Rhetoric in the Rest of the West' attempts to expand the conversation in those gaps in the history of rhetoric by examining the traditions that lost the cultural competition and have been shrouded in the shadow of the rhetorical tradition. ; 240 pages .

Littlewood, C. A. J.
SELF-REPRESENTATION AND ILLUSION IN SENECAN TRAGEDY
Oxford University Press. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 2004. Hardcover. 0199267618 . Gift inscription from author to 'Michael' on ffep. Very light shelfwear to book. Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing. ; A. J. Littlewood approaches Seneca's tragedies as Neronian literature rather than as reworkings of Attic drama and emphasizes their place in the Roman world and in the Latin literary corpus. The Greek tragic myths are for Seneca mediated by non-dramatic Augustan literature. In literary terms Phaedra's desire Hippolytus' innocence and Hercules' ambivalent heroism look back through allusion to Roman elegy pastoral and epic respectively. Ethically the artificiality of Senecan tragedy the consciousness that its own dramatic worlds events and people are literary constructs responds to the contemporary Stoical dismissal of the public world as mere theatre. ; Oxford Classical Monographs; 344 pages; Signed by Author .

Winnington-Ingram, R. P.
SOPHOCLES An Interpretation
Cambridge University Press. Very Good. 1980. Softcover. 0521296846 . Spine a little creased. 1 corner lightly creased. Light pencil marginalia to a few pages. Scholars' bookplate to inner cover. ; 0.94 x 8.82 x 5.91 Inches; 358 pages; In this interpretation of the seven extant tragedies of Sophocles Professor Winnington-Ingram provides not so much a straightforward account of Sophocles as an exploration of his tragic vision of the world. The Sophoclean hero lies at the centre of this vision. Taking the plays individually but without losing sight of the single consistent mind behind them the author faces the questions of how the hero is to be regarded what we are to make of the fates he suffered and the divine powers who controlled those fates. He proceeds by a detailed study of what Sophocles wrote by close attention to form and recurrent themes and especially by close analysis of a number of choral odes. Students of Greek drama will find that this detailed study provides invaluable insights into the meaning of the tragedies. Greek in the text is translated or paraphrased so that the book will also be of interest to students of the literature and drama of other cultures. . Cambridge University Press paperback

Nasse Christiane
ERDICHTETE RITUALE Die Eingeweideschau in Der Lateinischen Epik Und Tragödie
Franz Steiner Verlag. Fine. 2012. Softcover. 3515101330 . English summary: The differentiation between Etruscan and Roman sacrificial rituals is one of the fundamental problems in religious historical writing. Christiane Nasse shows that this assumption is based on a misinterpretation of key sources and features prevalent in a century of historical research. The critique leads to deconstruction: either the hypothesis of a dichotomy of extispicy appears plausible or it is sufficiently defined as a "sacred linguistics" on which the research is essentially based. Following up on this question the author investigates the critical sources for ritual slaughter according to historical referentiality on the one hand and textual dissociation on the other. She brings together late-antique commentators on Vergil such as Servius and Macrobius as well as laws from the Codex Theodosianus. Through individual analysis she throws a new light on the poetic representation of classical authors such as Vergil Ovid Lucan Seneca and Silius Italicus which renders essential the use of historical-critical methods on the one side and the basics of narratology on the other. German description: Die Unterscheidung von etruskischem und romischem Opferritual gehort zu den Grunduberzeugungen der Religionsgeschichtsschreibung. Christiane Nasse zeigt dass diese Annahme auf einer Fehlinterpretation der zentralen Quellen und Besonderheiten einer hundertjahrigen Forschungsgeschichte beruht. Die Kritik fuhrt zu Dekonstruktionen: Weder erscheint die Hypothese von einer Dichotomie der Eingeweideschau plausibel noch ist eine Sakralsprachlichkeit' auf die sich die Forschung wesentlich stutzt hinreichend definiert. Mit der Frage nach dem Historisch-Referentiellen auf der einen und nach literarischen Verfremdungen auf der anderen Seite untersucht die Autorin zentrale Quellen zu diesem Schlachtritus. Sie zieht spatantike Texte von Vergil-Erklarern wie Servius und Macrobius heran sowie Gesetze aus dem Codex Theodosianus. In Einzelanalysen wirft sie ein neues Licht auf die poetischen Darstellungen klassischer Autoren wie Vergil Ovid Lucan Seneca und Silius Italicus. Grundlage hierfur bilden die historisch-kritische Methode einerseits und Ansatze aus der Erzahltheorie andererseits. ; Potsdamer Altertumswissenschaftliche Beiträge 38; 408 pages .

Routledge. Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1994. Hardcover. 0415086205 . Book is fine. 1 small chip to DJ. DJ has very minor shelfwear. ; 344 pages; The most up-to-date history of Greek literature from its Homeric origins to the age of Augustus. Greek literary production throughout this period of some eight centuries is embedded in its historical and social context and Professor Dihle sees this literature as a historical phenomenon a particular mode of linguistic communication with its specific forms developing both in an organic way and in response to the changing world around. In this it differs from conventional humanist approaches to Greek and Latin literature which analyse the works as objects of timeless value independent of any historical setting or purpose. This magisterial survey by one of the leading European authorities on classical literature will establish itself as it already has in Germany as the standard account of the subject. .

Persius; Cynthia S. Dessen Ed. & Kenneth Reckford Foreword
THE SATIRES OF PERSIUS Iunctura Callidus Acri.
Duckworth Publishing. Very Good. 1996. Second Edition. Softcover. 1853994871 . " 1996 " has been written in pen to ffep. Very faint creasing to front wrap. Else fine. ; Bristol Classical Paperbacks; 128 pages; This volume published in 1968 was the first critical study of Persius in English. Unjustly squeezed from students' reading by the satiric giants Juvenal and Horace Persius has often been regarded as 'difficult' or 'minor' and marginalized condemned to 'the schooldust of the ages' by the repeated editing of traditional scholars Clausen Kissel. What Dessen offers is a close reading within the framework of the new criticism which led classics in the 1960s. She empasises the distinction between 'persona' and poet and argues that Persius' Satires far from being just 'difficult' are unified and comprehensible through their controlling metaphors their dominant imagery and word-repetition. In the heady days of post-structuralism Dessen's approach pioneering in its way remains a beacon of stimulating poetic appreciation and one in which students and scholars of Persius will find a sound basis for their further work. A new elegant Foreword by Kenneth Reckford places Dessen's work in its critical context. . Duckworth Publishing paperback

Janan, Micaela
THE POLITICS OF DESIRE Propertius IV
University of California Press. Near Fine. 2000. Softcover. 0520223217 . Very light shelfwear else fine. ; 293 pages; Propertius ca. 54 b. C. --ca. 2 b. C. was a Roman poet who composed four compelling books of elegies in the chaotic years surrounding Rome's transition from republic to empire. The first three of these books revolve mostly around a tormented love affair with a woman called Cynthia. The fourth book of poetry rests on more diverse subject matter and is notoriously the most opaque and elusive. In The Politics of Desire Micaela Janan radically reassesses Propertius' last elegies using contemporary psychoanalytic theory to illuminate these challenging texts. Janan finds that the upheaval of Rome's transformation to empire corresponds to the intellectually unsettled conditions of our own time so that contemporary methodologies offer an uncannily suitable approach for understanding Propertius. In particular she uses the work of Jacques Lacan since it provides the best conceptual tools for examining the relation between political crisis and the struggles of the self a theme that resonates in these difficult elegies. This book expands our understanding of an important Roman poet and its innovative and sophisticated methodological approach makes a substantial contribution to feminist and psychoanalytic criticism. In addition Janan addresses elegy's relationship to larger cultural questions and broadens our understanding of the social crisis affecting Rome during the early empire. .

Staples, Ariadne
FROM GOOD GODDESS TO VESTAL VIRGINS Sex and Category in Roman Religion
Routledge. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1998. Hardcover. 0415132339 . Scholar's name to ffep R. E. Fantham. Else book is fine. 1 small closed tear to DJ 1 cm. Else Very light shelfwear to DJ. ; 0.79 x 8.43 x 5.67 Inches; 207 pages; The role of women in Roman culture and society was a paradoxical one. They enjoyed social material and financial independence yet they were denied basic constitutional rights. Although Roman history is not short of powerful female figures such as Agrippina and Livia their power stemmed from their associations with great men and was not officially recognized. Ariadne Staples' book examines how women in Rome were perceived both by themselves and by men through women's participation in Roman religion as Roman religious ritual provided the single public arena where women played a significant formal role. From Good Goddess to Vestal Virgins argues that the ritual roles played out by women were vital in defining them sexually and that these sexually defined categories spilled over into other aspects of Roman culture including political activity. Staples provides an arresting and original analysis of the role of women in Roman society which challenges traditionally held views and provokes further questions. . Routledge hardcover
