‎MURDER AMONG FRIENDS Violation of Philia in Greek Tragedy‎

‎Oxford University Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 2000. Hardcover. 0195131495 . Former owner's name on ffep. Light bump to base of spine. Minor shelfwear to DJ. ; Modern scholars have followed Aristotle in noting the importance of philia kinship or friendship in Greek tragedy especially the large number of plots in which kin harm or murder one another. More than half of the thirty-two extant tragedies focus on an act in which harm occurs or is about to occur among philoi who are blood kin. In contrast Homeric epic tends to avoid the portrayal of harm to kin. It appears then that kin killing does not merely occur in what Aristotle calls the "best" Greek tragedies; rather it is a characteristic of the genre as a whole. In Murder Among Friends Elizabeth Belfiore supports this thesis with an in-depth examination of the crucial role of philia in Greek tragedy. Drawing on a wealth of evidence she compares tragedy and epic discusses the role of philia relationships within Greek literature and society and analyzes in detail the pattern of violation of philia in five plays: Aeschylus' Suppliants Sophocles' Philoctetes and Ajax and Euripides' Iphigenia in Tauris and Andromache. Appendixes further document instances of violation of philia in all the extant tragedies as well as in the lost plays of the fifth and fourth centuries B. C. E. ; 304 pages .

‎RITUALISED FRIENDSHIP AND THE GREEK CITY‎

‎Cambridge University Press. Very Good with no dust jacket. 2002. Softcover. 0521522102 . Light shelfwear. Scholars' name to ffep Mark Golden. ; 212 pages; In this book Gabriel Herman offers a new interpretation of Greek xenia a term traditionally rendered as 'guest-friendship'. Drawing on contemporary literary sources and inscriptions as well as anthropology sociology and comparative evidence from other times he shows that xenia was a bond of fictitious kinship akin to godparenthood rather than a tie of hospitality or ordinary 'friendship'. Starting off from this proposition he develops a dynamic model of the formation of elite relationships and values. He explores the concepts of obligation and loyalty gift and bribe treason and patriotism and places the Greek city within a new context of power relations. This book which assumes no knowledge of Greek will be of interest to students and teachers of ancient history and classics. It will also appeal to social and political scientists. .

‎Institute of Classical Studies. Near Fine. 2008. Softcover. 1905670141 . Very light shelfwear else fine. ; Institute of Classical Studies Bulletin Supplement 97; 193 pages; The new millennium sees both Pliny the Elder and his massive encyclopaedic Natural History being studied more seriously and holistically than at any time in the preceding century. The essays in this volume which honour the seminal work of Barbara Levick on the politics and society of imperial Rome above all in the period of Pliny’s life and literary activity further this re-assessment. They consider aspects of Pliny’s life and output which have not so far received serious attention. These include his value as a source for the kings of Rome and their achievements; his attitude to astronomy and natural wonders to gentilician commemoration philosophical sects Roman dress and coinage; and his moral judgements on the fall of the Republic. The essays consider the ideological climate of the Flavian period as reflected not only in Pliny’s attitude to the past but in his construction of Rome and Italy and his relationship to contemporary writers like Licinius Mucianus. Pliny emerges clearly as a major literary and cultural figure of the early Empire. . Institute of Classical Studies paperback‎

Else book is fine. ; Ancient Society and History; 352 pages; Scholars of ancient literature have often focused on the works and lives of major authors rather than on such questions as how these works were produced and who read them. In Roman Literary Culture Elaine Fantham fills that void by examining the changing social and historical context of literary production in ancient Rome and its empire. Fantham discusses the habits of Roman readers and developments in their means of access to literature from booksellers and copyists to pirated publications and libraries. She examines the issues of patronage and the utility of literature. She shows how the constraints of the physical object itself—the ancient "book"—influenced the practice of both reading and writing. And she explores the ways in which ancient criticism and critical attitudes reflected cultural assumptions of the time. . The Johns Hopkins University Press paperback‎

Very light shelfwear to DJ. ; Martin Classical Lectures 29; 224 pages; Anne Burnett shows us the art of Bacchylides in the context of Greek lyric traditions. She discusses the beginnings of choral poetry and the functions of the choral myth; she describes the purposes of the victory song in particular and the practices of Bacchylides and Pindar as they fulfilled their victory commissions. In analyzing individual poems Burnett's approach is two-fold for each ode is seen as a choral performance reflecting archaic cult practice while it is also studied as the expression of a particular poetic vision and sensibility. Thus the formal elements of the Bacchylidean victory songs are recognized as the response of a chorus which must give semi-religious praise to a noble athlete or prize-winning prince in times of increasing democracy. At the same time an artistry and an ethic peculiar to Bacchylides are discovered in the manipulation of fictions and mythic materials. . Harvard University Press hardcover‎

‎THE POLITICS OF DESIRE Propertius IV‎

‎University of California Press. Very Good. 2000. Softcover. 0520223217 . Scholars' name to ffep Mark Golden. 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. .
