Vivante, Paolo
HOMERIC RHYTHM A Philosophical Study
Greenwood Press. Fine with no dust jacket. 1997. Hardcover. 0313303630 . In a follow-up to his previous Homeric studies noted classicist Paolo Vivante explores Homer's verse highlighting rhythm rather than metre. Rhythmical qualities he argues constitute the force of the verse For example in the way the words take position and in the way each pause hints suspense producing an immediate sense of time. Vivante's main concern is not with the techniques or rules of the verse-composition but more philosophically with verse itself as a fundamental form of human expression. This study will be of interest to both students and scholars. ; Contributions to the Study of World Literature 82; 176 pages . Greenwood Press hardcover

Steiner, Deborah Tarn
THE TYRANT'S WRIT Myths and Images of Writing in Ancient Greece
Princeton University Press. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 1994. Hardcover. 0691032386 . Light shelfwear to book and DJ. ; 280 pages; Covering material as diverse as curse tablets coins tattoos and legal decrees Deborah Steiner explores the reception of writing in archaic and classical Greece. She moves beyond questions concerning ancient literacy and the origins of the Greek alphabet to examine representations of writing in the myths and imaginative literature of the period. Maintaining that the Greek alphabet was not seen purely as a means of transcribing and preserving the spoken word the author investigates parallels between writing and other signifiers such as omens tokens and talismans; the role of inscription in religious rites including cursing oath-taking and dedication; and perceptions of how writing functioned both in autocracies and democracies. Particularly innovative is the suggestion that fifth-century Greek historians and dramatists portrayed writing as an essential tool of tyrants who not only issue written decrees but also "inscribe" human bodies with brands and cut up land with compasses and rules. The despotic overtones associated with writing inform discussion of its function in democracies. Although writing could promote equal justice ancient sources also linked this activity with historical and mythical figures who opposed the populist regime. By examining this highly nuanced portrayal of writing Steiner offers a new perspective on ancient views of written law and its role in 5th-century Athenian democracy. .

Else minor shelfwear. ; The period covered by Sallust's Histories--78-67 BC--forms part of one of the least well documented eras of the late Republic. For nearly a century scholars have consulted the edition of B. Maurenbrecher 1891-93. Continuing research on the period has produced material with a bearing on the interpretation of Sallust's text; in addition several fragments not known to Maurenbrecher have subsequently been discovered. For this new translation McGushin has freshly revised Maurenbrecher's placement and ordering of the fragments and incorporated this newly discovered material. Together with a comprehensive introduction he provides a detailed interpretation in the first full-length commentary on the work. ; Clarendon Ancient History Series; Vol. 2; 259 pages .

His commentary is the fullest yet published on a Senecan play and attempts both to interpret the text and to define the originality of Senecan drama by placing it in its proper literary context. Seneca's tragedy Agamemnon is a brilliantly rhetorical piece written for the study rather than the stage. In this edition Professor Tarrant provides a much needed critical text. In his introduction he discusses the sources dating structure and mode of production of Agamemnon and Senecan drama in general and includes a detailed survey of the manuscript tradition. His commentary is the fullest yet published on a Senecan play and attempts both to interpret the text and to define the originality of Senecan drama by placing it in its proper literary context it contains material illustrating Seneca's relationship to earlier Greek and Roman drama Augustan poetry Ovid's in particular and the rhetoric of declamation. This edition will be welcomed by classical scholars and students of Latin poetry and may also prove valuable to those interested in Seneca's influence on later European drama. .
