SIGNS OF ORALITY The Oral Tradition and Its Influence in the Greek and Roman World
Brill. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1999. Hardcover. 9004112731 . Faint dust-soiling/foxing to top of textblock else fine. Dustjacket has minor edgewear and rubbing. ; The essays in this volume present new insights into the far-reaching influence of an early oral culture on subsequent development after the spread of literacy. At the outset revisionist essays on the Homeric epics examine such questions as historical memory Homer's audience s descriptive strategies ring-composition and the status of orality as a constitutive feature of the epics. These are followed by virtually unprecedented studies of the orality of later written literature including Greek oratory Virgilian epic Pliny's Panegyricus and story-telling in late Greek writers. Included as well are two discussions of Athenian vase-painting: annular scene-composition in the black-figure tradition and the implications of kalos-inscriptions. An introduction by leading oral theorist John Miles Foley situates all the essays at the leading edge of oral theoretical development. ; Mnemosyne. Bibliotheca Classica Batava.

THE RHETORIC OF THE ROMAN FAKE Latin Pseudepigrapha in Context
Cambridge University Press. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 2012. Hardcover. 1107000734 . Light bump to lower edge of front board else book is fine. DJ has light creasing to edges. ; Previous scholarship on classical pseudepigrapha has generally aimed at proving issues of attribution and dating of individual works with little or no attention paid to the texts as literary artefacts. Instead this book looks at Latin fakes as sophisticated products of a literary culture in which collaborative practices of supplementation recasting and role-play were the absolute cornerstones of rhetorical education and literary practice. Texts such as the Catalepton the Consolatio ad Liviam and the Panegyricus Messallae thus illuminate the strategies whereby Imperial audiences received and interrogated canonical texts and are here explored as key moments in the Imperial reception of Augustan authors such as Virgil Ovid and Tibullus. The study of the rhetoric of these creative supplements irreverently mingling truth and fiction reveals much not only about the neighbouring concepts of fiction authenticity and reality but also about the tacit assumptions by which the latter are employed in literary criticism. ; 322 pages .
