WAR AND SOCIETY IN THE ROMAN WORLD
Routledge. Near Fine. 1995. Softcover. 0415121671 . 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

GREEK PHILOSOPHY IN THE NEW MILLENIUM Essays in Honour of Thomas M. Robinson
Academia Verlag. Near Fine with no dust jacket. 2004. Hardcover. 3896652052 . Minor knock along back upper board else Fine. ; While appearing to be a conventional Festschrift in honour of a reputed Professor of Philosophy at the University of Toronto this book includes a unique collection of essays by a number of distinguished scholars from an impressive number of countries on current changes in the field of ancient philosophy some might say resistance to change as globalization profoundly affects local culture and the education of new generations seems likely to be transformed in significant ways. The essays have been organized largely in geographical order starting with Professor Robinson's adopted country Canada and ending with the linguistic community and geographical area more strictly linked with what we have become accustomed to call "ancient philosophy": modern Greece. Through our journey which takes us through the Americas the Pacific area Australia Japan China and Europe readers will be pleased to discover how a widening interest in ancient philosophy has recently spread to a remarkable number of "new" countries some of which have traditionally been thought of as on the margins of if not strictly outside the established scholarly community. Although this work is a tribute to a well-known and admired scholar it is also meant to interest the entire scholarly community of ancient primarily Greek philosophy philosophers and classicists alike: readers wanting to inform themselves about the status of ancient philosophy in a changing and multi-faceted world will find here very much to discover. ; Studies in Ancient Philosophy 6; 352 pages .

Dustjacket has edgewear with chipping and small tears now protected in mylar. Light browning to DJ. DJ is price-clipped. ; This book is written in the belief that a proper understanding of Greek civilization in antiquity requires some knowledge of its background of seafaring. A knowledge of nautical practice is required for an understanding of some passages of Greek poetry and prose writing and for a correct interpretation of numerous historical events. This is an attempt at a thorough study of the evidence both literary and archaeological. Modern reference books tend to repeat the misconceptions of nineteenth-century scholars. In contrast Mr Morrison and Mr Williams have written a scholarly and scientific study of the subject. They collect in this volume evidence for Greek oared ships between 900 and 322 BC. The book is primarily a catalogue of decorated pottery and quotations from literature and from naval inventories. The pottery is illustrated by diagrams and plates; and the quotations are given in full. ; 356 pages . Cambridge University Press hardcover
