École Française De Rome. Very Good with no dust jacket. 2008. Hardcover. 2728304122 . 2 volume set. Light bumping to extremities else Fine. ; Alba Longa et sa légende demeurent pour la science une énigme : alors quelle explore les origines de Rome avec une intensité sans précédent elle ne sait que penser de cette ville introuvable de ce lac débordant de ces forêts ombreuses de ces rois fantômes. Quel rôle jouèrent les monts Albains dans la culture latiale A-t-on eu raison depuis plus de cinq siècles de chercher inlassablement Albe cette cité doù seraient venus les jumeaux fondateurs de Rome Quelles furent les relations entre ce territoire albain et Rome entre la Ligue latine et la Ville Géographie historique et culturelle sciences de la terre archéologie histoire des religions philologie : le recours à un très large éventail de disciplines aboutit ici à une synthèse doù le souci de la réflexivité épistémologique nest jamais absent. Pour comprendre le légendaire albain il fallait le replacer dans son cadre. Les anciennes fouilles du XIXe siècle sont donc restituées dans leur contexte. Au-delà de ce qui a été conservé émerge un continent perdu de la connaissance : des paysages disparus des sites oubliés des textes négligés des rites méconnus et avec eux toute la richesse dune véritable civilisation : en retour on comprendra mieux lapport des plus récentes découvertes dans ce Latium préromain dont le massif Albain constituait précisément le centre. Cest là sur le mons Albanus moderne Monte Cavo que les Anciens plaçaient Alba Longa et ses rois ; cest là aussi qu avait lieu une grandiose cérémonie religieuse les Féries Latines délaissées pourtant par la recherche moderne qui na su où situer les mystérieux sacra Albana. Des inventaires précis des dossiers rassemblant les textes antiques concernés donnés à chaque fois avec leur traduction permettent de redonner à ces thèmes toute leur importance et font de ce livre un exceptionnel outil de travail : la première synthèse française sur cet ancien Latium naguère dit primitif objet depuis trois décennies dun grand mouvement international de recherche. Mémoire ou histoire À cette interrogation aujourdhui omniprésente ce livre apporte une réponse qui constitue une contribution novatrice au débat actuel sur les origines de Rome. ; 2 Volume Set COMPLETE.

CICEROS ROSCIANA AMERINA Im Prosarhythmus Rekonstruiert
Franz Steiner Verlag. Near Fine with no dust jacket. 2011. Hardcover. 3515098682 . Bump to top corner of front board. Very light shelfwear. Else Fine. ; Palingenesia 99; 178 pages; German text. Der antike Prosarhythmus ist nie bevorzugter Forschungsgegenstand der Philologie gewesen ruckte allerdings immer wieder einmal durch neue Untersuchungen ins Blickfeld. Besonders die Klauselforschung wurde vorherrschend vor allem durch Th. Zielinskis Studie aUber das Clauselgesetz in Ciceros Reden Leipzig 1909. Einen neuen Massstab setzte dann jedoch der Band von W. Schmid aUber die klassische Theorie und Praxis des antiken Prosarhythmus Wiesbaden 1959. Statt der eingeengten Sicht auf die Satzschlusse eruierte er ein geschlossenes System rhythmischer Gesetzmassigkeiten als das entscheidende Kriterium das sich aus antiken Zeugnissen vor allem bei Cicero und Aristoteles ergibt. Fur Cicero nimmt der Rhythmus eine so zentrale Stellung ein dass er in dessen Beherrschung den Kulminationspunkt seiner rednerischen Fahigkeit sah. Deshalb wird hier im Anschluss an W. Schmid ein neuer Versuch unternommen diese Rhythmisierung in Ciceros Rede fur Sextus Roscius aus Ameria sichtbar zu machen. Der Text ist nach rhythmischen Sprecheinheiten gegliedert und markiert damit sozusagen wo Cicero Atempausen gemacht hat und was er betonen wollte. Es zeigt sich dadurch in aller Deutlichkeit wie kunstvoll diese Rede gestaltet ist. Durch das neue Druckbild kann sie nun wie eine aPartitur gelesen werden. . Franz Steiner Verlag hardcover

READING SIN IN THE WORLD The Hamartigenia of Prudentius and the Vocation of the Responsible Reader
Cambridge University Press. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 2011. Hardcover. 1107004535 . Very light shelfwear to book and DJ else Fine. ; 294 pages; Prudentius is one of the major Latin poets of antiquity. A Christian living and writing in Spain in the late fourth and early fifth centuries he was thoroughly imbued with the whole tradition of Latin poetry. The Hamartigenia is a didactic poem exploring the origins of evil and how it operates in the world. It is full of echoes and reworkings of earlier poems by Lucretius Virgil and others but is also a serious contribution to this important theological issue which was much discussed in Church circles of the day. This is a major new study of the Hamartigenia in the context of Prudentius' work as a whole and is striking for being as seriously interested in its theological as in its literary contribution. .

Ando, Clifford
IMPERIAL IDEOLOGY AND PROVINCIAL LOYALTY IN THE ROMAN EMPIRE
University of California Press. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 2000. Hardcover. 0520220676 . One small chip to DJ else Fine. ; Classics and Contemporary Thought; 1.57 x 9.37 x 6.31 Inches; 494 pages; The Roman empire remains unique. Although Rome claimed to rule the world it did not. Rather its uniqueness stems from the culture it created and the loyalty it inspired across an area that stretched from the Tyne to the Euphrates. Moreover the empire created this culture with a bureaucracy smaller than that of a typical late-twentieth-century research university. In approaching this problem Clifford Ando does not ask the ever-fashionable question Why did the Roman empire fall Rather he asks Why did the empire last so long Imperial Ideology and Provincial Loyalty in the Roman Empire argues that the longevity of the empire rested not on Roman military power but on a gradually realized consensus that Roman rule was justified. This consensus was itself the product of a complex conversation between the central government and its far-flung peripheries. Ando investigates the mechanisms that sustained this conversation explores its contribution to the legitimation of Roman power and reveals as its product the provincial absorption of the forms and content of Roman political and legal discourse. Throughout his sophisticated and subtle reading is informed by current thinking on social formation by theorists such as Max Weber Jrgen Habermas and Pierre Bourdieu. .
