THE POLITICS OF PEARL Court Poetry in the Age of Richard II
D. S. Brewer. Good with no dust jacket. 2000. Hardcover. 0859915999 . Ex-library copy with usual stamps call numbers and pocket. 'Write-off' has been stamped to top of textblock. Book appears unread. Very light shelfwear. ; 0.63 x 9.21 x 6.14 Inches; 264 pages; This is an entirely new and original reading of 'Pearl' placing the anonymous masterpiece in the context of the Cheshire coterie that flourished at the court of Richard II during the 1390s. The brilliance of its poetic construction has long been acknowledged but here 'Pearl' is also shown to engage with the social religious and political events of the late fourteenth century. The poem's defense of infant baptism is seen as countering Lollard criticism of the sacraments its retelling of the Parable of the Vineyard as offering scriptural support to the aims of the Statute of Labourers. The poem's dazzling representation of aristocratic magnificence - jewelled crowns gem-embroidered gowns livery badges civic processions and monumental architecture - studied in this context relates to the spectacular royal culture of one of England's most ambitious monarchs. The courtly elegy offered consolation after the death of Anne of Bohemia while its vision of a royal child-bride figured in the intense national debate over the king's prospective marriage to the six-year-old Isabelle of France. Richard II's fall from power brought to an end not simply Cheshire privilege but also a poetic tradition that produced some of the finest works of English literature most notably 'Pearl' and 'Gawain and the Green Knight'. .

It is the sequel to the first volume on the history of the Jews in Sicily and illustrates the events of the first century of Aragonese rule over the island. During that period often unsettled by political upheavals the Jewish minority flourished economically but suffered along with the rest of the population during civil war and uprisings of the barons. Some thousand documents many of them published here for the first time record the fortunes of the Jews and their relationships with the authorities and their Christian neighbours. Much new information has come to light and many facets of Jewish life in Sicily have been uncovered. . Brill Academic Publishers hardcover

THE EMPIRE OF THE TETRARCHS Imperial Pronouncements and Government AD 284-324
Oxford University Press. Near Fine in Fine dust jacket. 1996. Hardcover. 0198149840 . Very light shelfwear to heel of spine else Fine. ; Oxford Classical Monographs; 1.11 x 8.74 x 5.7 Inches; 424 pages; The era of Diocletan and Constantine is a significant period for the Roman empire with far-reaching administrative changes that established the structure of government for three hundred years - a time when the Christian church passed from persecution to imperial favour. It is also a complex period of co-operation and rivalry between a number of co-emperors the result of Diocletian's experiment of government by four rulers the tetrarchs. This book examines imperial government at this crucial but often neglected period of transition through a study of the the pronouncement that the emperors and their officials produced drawing together material from a wide variety of sources: the law codes Christian authors inscritpions and papyri. The study covers the format composition and promulgation of documents and includes chronological catalogues of imperial letters and edicts as well as extended discussions of the Gregorian and Hermogenian Codes and the ambitious Prices Edict. Much of this has had little detailed coverage in English before. There is also a chapter that elucidates the relative powers of the members of the imperial college. Finally Dr Corcoran assesses how effectively the machinery of government really matched the ambitions of the emperors. . Oxford University Press hardcover

POLITICS AND SCRIPT Aspects of Authority and Freedom in the Development of Graeco-Latin Script from the Sixth Century B. C. to the Twentieth Century A. D.

Dustjacket has edgewear with minor chipping and a few tears some repaired with adhesive tape. ; The Lyell lectures; 361 pages; The central argument of Stanley Morison's work is that the development of script inscriptional calligraphic or typographical has been the result of changes in religious or political environment of friction between church and state and of the schism between Eastern and Western Christendom. Morison begins with an example of alphabetic forms on a 6th century BC gravestone from Melos and proceeds through commentary on a notable collection of more than 180 illustrated specimens to trace the career of the Graeco-Roman alphabet up to its use in newspaper typefaces of the 1950s. He also seeks to show that the most widely used printers' typefaces of the twentieth century owe more to their Greek than to their Roman antecedents. . Oxford Clarendon Press hardcover

Staples, Ariadne
FROM GOOD GODDESS TO VESTAL VIRGINS Sex and Category in Roman Religion
Routledge. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 1998. Hardcover. 0415132339 . Very minor edgewear to top corners of DJ else Fine. ; 0.79 x 8.43 x 5.67 Inches; 207 pages; The role of women in Roman culture and society was a paradoxical one. They enjoyed social material and financial independence yet they were denied basic constitutional rights. Although Roman history is not short of powerful female figures such as Agrippina and Livia their power stemmed from their associations with great men and was not officially recognized. Ariadne Staples' book examines how women in Rome were perceived both by themselves and by men through women's participation in Roman religion as Roman religious ritual provided the single public arena where women played a significant formal role. From Good Goddess to Vestal Virgins argues that the ritual roles played out by women were vital in defining them sexually and that these sexually defined categories spilled over into other aspects of Roman culture including political activity. Staples provides an arresting and original analysis of the role of women in Roman society which challenges traditionally held views and provokes further questions. . Routledge hardcover

Of this vast literature only two examples survive whole: a set of hymns composed at some point in the 2nd or 3rd century AD and an Orphic Argonautica composed somewhere between the 4th and 6th centuries AD.

Cambridge University Press. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1994. Hardcover. 0521401356 . Publisher's remainder mark to bottom of textblock small black dot. Small tear to cloth at base of spine ~1 cm. ; 1.06 x 9.33 x 6.26 Inches; 287 pages; This book provides a detailed analysis of the conventions and techniques of performance characteristic of the Greek theatre of Menander and the subsequent Roman theatre of Plautus and Terence. Drawing on literary and archaeological sources and on scientific treatises David Wiles identifies the mask as crucial to the actor's art and shows how sophisticated the art of the mask-maker became. He also examines the other main elements which the audience learned to decode: costume voice movement etc. In order to identify features that were unique to Hellenistic theatre he contrasts Greek New Comedy with other traditions of masked comedy and shows how different Roman conventions of performance rest upon different underlying assumptions about religion marriage and class. David Wiles offers theatre historians and classicists a radical new approach to reading play texts. His book will also be useful to archaeologists seeking to understand what masks mean and how Greek and Roman theatres were used. . Cambridge University Press hardcover

Dustjacket is protected in plastic. ; Cambridge Classical Texts and Commentaries 11; 262 pages; An exhaustive study of Claudian's unfinished mythological epic with a text apparatus criticus and commentary. The long introduction begins with a catalogue of manuscripts; and this leads to an investigation into the manuscript tradition and the history of the poem's transmission. Dr Hall then surveys the most important printed editions of the poem. He examines various theories of dating and discusses the sources of the story. He concludes the introduction with a brief critical assessment of the form and style of the poem. Dr Hall establishes his text after an examination of all the extant manuscripts. The apparatus though very full is selective in that it records readings of younger manuscripts only when they offer something new. It also ignores trifling corruptions. The commentary is similarly selective. In general it discusses everything relevant to the establishing of the text and ignores points of purely mythological and literary interest. .

The Sophistaria-treatise takes commonly used logical semantic and grammatical distinctions as its starting point and subsequently moves to the discussion of puzzling sophisma-sentences these distinctions are exemplified in. The volume contains a broad introduction as well as extensive indexes of names sources loci subjects and sophisma-sentences. . Brill Academic Publishers hardcover

DIE GRIECHISCHE KOLONISATION Im Spiegel Literarischer Zeugnisse
Gunter Narr Verlag. Near Fine. 1997. Softcover. 3823348736 . Light shelfwear to bottom back corner else Fine. ; Kaum ein geschichtliches Phänomen hat die griechische Kultur so geprägt wie die große Kolonisationsbewegung die im 8. Jahrhundert v. Chr. Einsetzte und zur Besiedlung entlegenster Gebiete des Mittelmeerraumes durch Griechen führte. Deshalb findet die Gründung von Kolonien in so gut wie allen literarischen Gattungen der archaischen und klassischen Zeit ihren Niederschlag vom Epos bis zur Komödie von der Historiographie bis zur Philosophie. Das vorliegende Buch macht es sich zur Aufgabe dieses vielfältige Material zu sichten und die Hauptmotive herauszuarbeiten die in der Darstellung der griechischen Autoren die wichtigste Rolle spielen. Es ist dabei nicht der Blickwinkel des Historikers sondern der des Literaturwissenschaftlers aus dem das gewonnene Material untersucht wird. Nicht die Rekonstruktion historischer Abläufe ist Ziel der Arbeit sondern eine kritische Betrachtung der "Leitmotive" die in Dichtung und Prosa der Griechen von Homer bis Aristoteles das Thema "Kolonisation" bestimmen. Es geht darum die Grundstruktur des Bildes nachzuzeichnen das die Griechen selbst sich von ihrer Kolonisationsgeschichte machten. Dabei soll gezeigt werden wie das untersuchte Phänomen von den Überlieferungsträgern literarisch umgesetzt wird insbesondere durch Einbindung in mythischen und religiösen Kontext. ; Classica Monacensia; 337 pages .
