Shackleton Bailey, D. R.
PROFILE OF HORACE
Duckworth & Company. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1982. Hardcover. 0715615912 . Dustjacket spine shows discoloration. Light shelfwear. Former owner's name on ffep. ; In this concise analysis written with elegant wit the greatest living textual critic of Latin authors offers new insight into the poetry of Horace. Horace is best known for his four books of Odes cherished for their lyric grace. His amiable persona is displayed more intimately in the moralizing verses of the Satires and Epistles. In a reading of all the poetry but focusing especially on problematic areas Shackleton Bailey examines Horace's art of self-presentation. A variety of themes are elucidated from the poet's relations with his patron to Roman sexual attitudes. Close scrutiny is given to about thirty passages which he argues have been misread. An appended essay on a notable predecessor the textual scholar Richard Bentley is especially revealing on the art of classical scholarship. ; Classical Life and Letters; 0.67 x 8.81 x 5.68 Inches; 142 pages .

Hutchinson G. O.
HELLENISTIC POETRY
Oxford University Press. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1997. Hardcover. 0198140401 . Very light creasing to bottom edge of DJ. Light shelfwear and rubbing to DJ. ; 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

Scholten, Joseph B.
THE POLITICS OF PLUNDER Aitolians and Their Koinon in the Early Hellenistic Era 279-217 B. C.
University of California Press. Near Fine in Fine dust jacket. 2000. Hardcover. 0520201876 . Small black marker to bottom of textblock-- remainder Else fine. Dustjacket is protected in mylar. ; Between 279 and 229 B. C. the Aitolian koinon a federation of mountain cantons in west central Greece expanded to incorporate many of the neighboring lands and peoples lying between the Adriatic and Aegean Seas. This new political configuration contributed to the development of modern systems of federal democracy based on proportional representation. Despite these institutional advances the Aitolians and their polity are reviled in the ancient historical tradition which views them as backward semi-barbarous brigands. The Politics of Plunder is the first English-language book in over a century to examine the political history of the Aitolian koinon in its era of expansion. Joseph Scholten presents a chronological reconstruction of the koinon's course of expansion synthesizing a number of recent studies covering Aitolian topography epigraphy and institutional development that help to compensate for deficiencies in the ancient narrative record. His study is the first to ask how a people and a polity so detested by their contemporaries succeeded in making such fundamental contributions to their regional political culture. Scholten's careful investigation charts a middle course that neither whitewashes the Aitolians nor credulously accepts the biased ancient tradition. This balanced approach provides a much-needed fresh perspective on the Aitolians and their koinon. Discussing the history of the ancient Aegean Greek world and the political economic and social history of the Hellenistic Era this book will interest anyone concerned with those subjects or fascinated by the development of ancient Greek political institutions and theories particularly federalism. ; Hellenistic Culture and Society; 2.72 x 9.31 x 7.94 Inches; 339 pages .

The principal matters considered are the volume of emigration the kinds of communities formed overseas by the emigrants their motives and origins the regions and places settled the fortunes of the settlers in the upheavals of the late Republican period and their relations with the people among whom they lived. .

ANNAEANA TRAGICA Notes On the Text of Seneca's Tragedies
Brill Academic Publishers. Fine with no dust jacket. 2004. Hardcover. 9004140034 . This volume is a companion to the author's new Loeb edition of Seneca's tragedies vol. 1 2002; vol. 2 2004. It offers reasons for his editorial choices and explains his interpretations of the text as reflected in his translation. Hercules Oetanus and Octavia now generally regarded as imitations of Senecan drama are both included. The volume is intended to be read alongside Otto Zwierlein's Kritische Kommentar published in 1986. In the intervening years there has been much new work pertaining to Seneca's text including full-scale editions with commentary on individual plays such as Keulen's Troades Töchterle's Oedipus and Ferri's Octavia. Annaeana Tragica seeks to supplement and advance Zwierlein's work in the light of this new material. An appendix reviews the scholarly controversy concerning the anapaestic odes of these plays and offers fresh evidence relevant to the issue. ; Mnemosyne Bibliotheca Classica Batava Supplementum; 293 pages .

Minor shelfwear else Fine; Leicester-Nottingham Studies in Ancient Society; 0.88 x 8.5 x 5.5 Inches; 328 pages; The essays in War and Society in the Roman World collectively offer an innovative investigation into this area of classical studies a field which has long been in need of different critical perspectives. This collection avoids rehashing the minutiae of warfare viewing it instead as a species of social action affected by social conditions and ideologies and having social economic and cultural consequences. The central theme of this volume is the shifting relationship between warfare and the Roman citizen body. The dominant role of war in Roman life under the Republic is examined together with the related themes of Roman expansion and its consequences both for the Romans and for those they conquered. Under the principate expansion largely ended and the inhabitants of the empire enjoyed the Roman peace protected by a professional army. A number of chapters focus on these changes explaining how they came about analyzing their effect on attitudes to war and probing the extent to which peace was a reality. The final chapters study the Late Empire in terms of the rise of warlords and in the West the final disappearance of the Roman army. . Routledge paperback

Benardete, Seth
THE BOW AND THE LYRE A Platonic Reading of the Odyssey
Rowman & Littlefield Publishers Inc. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 1996. Hardcover. 0847683672 . Slight fading to DJ spine. ; In this exciting new interpretation of the "Odyssey" renowed scholar Seth Benardete suggests that Homer may have been the first to philosophize in a Platonic sense. He argues that the "Odyssey" concerns precisely the relation between philosophy and poetry and more broadly the rational and the irrational in human beings. In light of this possibility Bernardete works back and forth from Homer to Plato to examine the relation between wisdom and justice and tries to recover an original understanding of philosophy that Plato too recovered by reflecting on the wisdom of the poet. At stake in his argument is no less than the history of philosophy and the ancient understanding of poetry. "The Bow and the Lyre" is a book that every classicist and historian of philosophy should have. ; 9.5 x 0.75 x 6.5 Inches; 194 pages . Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, Inc. hardcover
