‎Hutchinson, G. O.‎

‎HELLENISTIC POETRY‎

‎Oxford University Press. Very Good in Good dust jacket. 1988. Hardcover. 0198140401 . Scholar's name to ffep R. E. Fantham in pencil with light pencil markings on a couple of pages. Very light shelfwear to book else fine. DJ spine is sunned with tears to top of DJ spine and a few small chips. ; Special Edition for Sandpiper books -- reprint of 1988 edition. In this study of the Hellenistic poets of the third century B. C. Hutchinson provides a much-needed picture of the poetry of the period while demonstrating its quality and vitality. The work of the Hellenistic poets in the third century BC has not only an important place in Greek literature but also a particular significance for Latin poetry. Hutchinson explores the works of such writers as Theocritus Callimachus and Apollonius of Rhodes--developing a generalconception of poetry that centers around the poets' handling of tone level and form--and offers a fresh analysis of the influence of Hellenistic poetry on the city of Rome. Despite much technical work on the texts and language of these authors - Theocritus Callimachus Apollonius Rhodius and others - previous literary criticism on most of the major figures is limited in quantity and scope. He explores the work of the individual writers in turn while developing a general conception of the poetry as a whole centred around the poets' handling of tone level and form. The book concludes with a fresh approach to the influence of Hellenistic poets in Rome. All quotations in Greek or Latin have been translated by the author. ; Oxford University Press Academic Monograph Reprints; 392 pages . Oxford University Press hardcover‎

‎Hutchinson, G. O.‎

‎LATIN LITERATURE FROM SENECA TO JUVENAL A Critical Study‎

‎Oxford University Press. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1993. Hardcover. 0198146906 . Minor shelfwear to boards. Light pencil markings to a few pages. ; 384 pages; G. O. Hutchinson explores central aspects of the period in Latin literature often depreciatingly termed 'Silver'. It is unusual in embracing both poetry and prose and in offering close literary discussion of a large number of particular passages. It is a selective and comparative study--throwing fresh light on the period as a whole on individual authors and on differences and affinities between genres. Most space is given to epic and tragedy and to the prose of Seneca and Tacitus; but Juvenal Martial the Younger Pliny and other authors are also treated. The author also considers large features of genre and relates these to fundamental elements of style and to the treatment of some vital themes. He gives the reader a feeling for this brilliant and extraordinary writing and a sense of the excitement and fascination of the literary period. All Latin in the text is translated. .

‎May, James M.‎

‎TRIALS OF CHARACTER The Eloquence of Ciceronian Ethos‎

‎The University of North Carolina Press. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1988. Hardcover. 0807817597 . Very light shelfwear to book else fine. Scholar's name to ffep R. E. Fantham. Very light edgewear to DJ else fine. ; 0.88 x 9.48 x 6.38 Inches; 224 pages; By its very nature the art of oratory involves character. Verbal persuasion entails the presentation of a persona by the speaker that affects an audience for good or ill. In this book James May explores the role and extent of Cicero's use of ethos and demonstrates its persuasive effect. May discusses the importance of ethos not just in classical rhetorical theory but also in the social political and judicial milieu of ancient Rome and then applies his insights to the oratory of Cicero. Ciceronian ethos was a complex blend of Roman tradition Cicero's own personality and selected features of Greek and Roman oratory. More than any other ancient literary genre oratory dealt with constantly changing circumstances with a wide variety of rhetorical challenges. An orator's success or failure as well as the artistic quality of his orations was largely the direct result of his responses to these circumstances and challenges. Acutely aware of his audience and its cultural heritage and steeped in the rhetorical traditions of his predecessors Cicero employed rhetorical ethos with uncanny success. May analyzes individual speeches from four different periods of Cicero's career tracing changes in the way Cicero depicted character both his own and others' as a source of persuasion changes intimately connected with the vicissitudes of Cicero's career and personal life. He shows that ethos played a major role in almost every Ciceronian speech that Cicero's audiences were conditioned by common beliefs about character and finally that Cicero's rhetorical ethos became a major source for persuasion in his oratory. .

‎SIBYLS AND SIBYLLINE PROPHECY IN CLASSICAL ANTIQUITY‎

‎Routledge. Very Good- in Very Good dust jacket. 1988. First Edition. Hardcover. 0415003431 . Corners are bumped. Pen lines to margins on about 9 pages. Pencil markings on 2 other pages. Small chip to one corner of DJ. Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing. Writing in pencil to front DJ flap. ; 236 pages; In antiquity a considerable number of books of prophecies went under the general title of "Sibylline Oracles". Rulers as significant as Augustus consulted them in time of danger or crisis for advice and prognoses. Increasing numbers of "ex post facto" prophecies laying a particular interpretation on facts of recent history came to be attributed to one of the mysterious Sibyls. Perhaps the most famous of these is the Cumaean Sibyl who guides the hero in the sixth book of Vergil's "Aeneid" . In fact she was somewhat unusual in her similiarity to other oracular prophetesses such as the Pythia. For where the latter prophesied in response to particular inquirers one of the distinguishing characteristics of Sibyls was that they composed discursive verses for distribution to the world at large. This Professor Parke's last book which was virtually complete on his death in 1986 is an account of a subject both rarely treated in recent decades and difficult to access for all but the most expert. In its pursuit of the sometimes elusive Sibyls it ranges from Heraclitus to Eusebius from Archaic Asia Minor to Christian Rome. This book should be of interest to undergraduates postgraduates and academics of classics. . Routledge hardcover‎

‎THE FAMILY IN CLASSICAL GREECE‎

‎Cornell University Press. Very Good. 1984. Softcover. 0801492742 . Faint crease to front wrap. Minor shelfwear. ; Aspects of Greek and Roman Life; 342 pages; In this well-researched and coherent introduction to family life in classical Greece Mr Lacey explains the structure of the family the social and economic pressures that affected it and the complicated legal measures that were devised to regulate and protect it. Even though the family has always been a fundamental institution in Greek society this is the first study in English devoted to it. This book deals in detail with the family in the archaic and classical ages -- the great era of the city-states. It was during this period that a close and complex relationship existed between the family and the city-state. Each city-state was in fact the sum total of the households contained in it and each household resembled a miniature kingdom with its own gods and lands and the head of the house exercised almost royal powers over his children. So powerful and close-knit was the family group that it was regarded by politicians and philosophers including Plato and Aristotle as damaging to their ideals of personal detachment and public service and even as a menace to the unity of the state. Mr Lacey supports his views of family life by quoting and discussing relevant writings of the Greek philosophers and by citing contemporary literature especially the comedies. He analyzes also the valuable evidence supplied by inscriptions vase paintings sculpture terracottas and coins many of which are presented in black-and-white photographs. From ancient times until today the most pervasive force in Greek life has been the family. This study of its influence in classical Greece makes possible a better understanding of greek history literature and art. . Cornell University Press paperback‎

Top edge of front board very lightly bumped else fine. Signed by Elaine Matthews to ffep. ; Proceedings of the British Academy 104; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 192 pages; Within the great diversity of their world the assertion of origin was essential to the ancient Greeks in defining their sense of who they were and how they distinguished themselves from neighbours and strangers. Each person's name might carry both identity and origin - 'I am' . . . inseparable from 'I come from' . . . Names have surfaced in many guises and locations - on coins and artefacts embedded within inscriptions and manuscripts - carrying with them evidence even from prehistoric and preliterate times. The Lexicon of Greek Personal Names has already identified more than 200000 individuals. The contributors to this volume draw on this resource to demonstrate the breadth of scholarly uses to which name evidence can be put. These essays narrate the stories of political and social change revealed by the incidence of personal names and cast a fascinating light upon both the natural and supernatural phenomena which inspired them. This volume offers dramatic illumination of the ways in which the ancient Greeks both created and interpreted their world through the specific language of personal names.; Signed by One Author .

Very light chip to edge of front wrap else fine. ; Institute of Classical Studies Bulletin Supplement 113; 250 pages; Electra is a unique complex and fascinating Greek tragic heroine who became a source of inspiration for countless playwrights artists musicians and filmmakers. The daughter of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra she famously supported her brother’s quest to avenge their father’s murder even at the cost of matricide. Her passion for justice and her desire for vengeance have echoed down the centuries to the modern era. Enshrined as the mourner of Greek tragedy par excellence Electra has enjoyed a long and rich reception history. Electra ancient and modern examines the treatment of Electra by all three ancient tragedians Aeschylus Sophocles and Euripides and their dialogue with the mythical tradition that preceded them. The focus then shifts forward in time to case studies of her reception in the eighteenth nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Gradually Electra’s dark desires re-emerge over the course of these three centuries until her passionate cries for vengeance are heard once again. Through its detailed analysis of Electra this book also provides a helpful introduction to the study of Classical Reception its ambitions and methods. . Institute of Classical Studies paperback‎
