Whitley, James; Renfrew, Colin & Wendy Ashmore & Clive Gamble & John O'Shea
STYLE AND SOCIETY IN DARK AGE GREECE The Changing Face of a Pre-literate Society 1100-700 BC
Cambridge University Press. Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1991. Hardcover. 0521373832 . Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing. ; In this innovative study James Whitley examines the relationship between the development of pot style and social changes in the Dark Age of Greece 1100-700 BC. He focuses on Athens where the Protogeometric and Geometric styles first appeared. He considers pot shape and painted decoration primarily in relation to the other relevant features - metal artefacts grave architecture funerary rites and the age and sex of the deceased - and also takes into account different contexts in which these shapes and decorations appear. A computer analysis of grave assemblages supports his view that pot style is an integral part of the collective representations of Early Athenian society. It is a lens through which we can focus on the changing social circumstances of Dark Age Greece. Dr Whitley's approach to the study of style challenges many of the assumptions which have underpinned more traditional studies of Early Greek art. ; New Studies in Archaeology; 10.25 x 1 x 7.5 Inches; 245 pages .

EROS IN MOURNING From Homer to Lacan
The Johns Hopkins University Press. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 1994. Hardcover. 0801849233 . Dustjacket has light rubbing. ; Eros in Mourning begins with a reading of the Iliad that shows how Homer not yet influenced by the ideology of transcendence analyzes the structure of unassuageable mourning in a way that is as up-to-date as the latest poststructuralism. Then in readings of Dante Hamlet La Princess de Clèves Heart of Darkness and Lacan Staten depicts the "thanato-erotic" hysteria that is set off by the specter of the dead and decomposing body that is also the body of sexual love and which in the "transcendentalizing" tradition is more female than male. Yet St. John certain troubadours and Milton offer glimpses of a more affirmative relation to "eros in mourning. " ; 9.5 x 1 x 6.5 Inches; 248 pages . The Johns Hopkins University Press hardcover

Tandy, David W. & University of California Press
WARRIORS INTO TRADERS The Power of the Market in Early Greece
University of California Press. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 1997. Hardcover. 0520202694 . Very light shelfwear. ; The eighth century dawned on a Greek world that had remained substantially unchanged during the centuries of stagnation known as the Dark Age. This book is a study of the economic and cultural upheaval that shook mainland Greece and the Aegean area in the eighth century and the role that poetry played in this upheaval. Using tools from political and economic anthropology David Tandy argues that between about 800 and 700 B. C. a great transformation of dominant economic institutions took place involving wrenching adjustments in the way status and wealth were distributed within the Greek communities. Tandy explores the economic organization of preindustrial societies both ancient and contemporary to shed light on the Greek experience. He argues that the sudden shift in Greek economic formations led to new social behaviors and to new social structures such as the polis itself a by-product of economic change. Unraveling the dialectic between the material record and epic poetry Tandy shows that the epic tradition mirrored these new social behaviors and that it portrayed the stresses that economic change brought to the ancient Aegean world. Tandy brings in comparative evidence from other small-scale communities beset by changes spotlighting the specific plight of one community Ascra in Boeotia on whose behalf Hesiod sang his Works and Days. The result is a lively moving account of a human dilemma that many centuries later is all too familiar. ; Classics and Contemporary Thought; 9.5 x 1.25 x 6.5 Inches; 296 pages .

The papers contain a refreshing ideological diversity while maintaining coherence of intellectual concerns. There is a discussion of the working of memory in The Knights Tale. On debt on Langland's Christology and on revelry some very interesting ideas are put foward. In addition literary contexts for the two major poets are usefully and thoroughly mapped out and three papers illustrate how historical events and processes may be perceived in stimulatingly different ways. Included is an introduction from the editor and bibliography of Robert Worth Frank Jnr. Contributors: ELIZABETH KIRK C. DAVID BENSON ANNA BALDWIN M.

FINAL JUDGMENTS Duty and Emotion in Roman Wills 200 B.C.-A.D.
University of California Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1991. Hardcover. 0520071034 . Light rubbing to DJ. Former owner's signature. ; Freed from the familial and social obligations incumbent on the living the Roman testator could craft his will to be a literal "last judgment" on family friends and society. The Romans were fascinated by the contents of wills believing the will to be a mirror of the testator's true character and opinions. The wills offer us a unique view of the individual Roman testator's world. Just as classicists ancient historians and legal historians will find a mine of information here the general reader will be fascinated by the book's lively recounting of last testaments. Who were the testators and what were their motives Why do family kin servants friends and community all figure in the will and how are they treated What sort of afterlife did the Romans anticipate By examining wills the book sets several issues in a new light offering new interpretations of or new insights into subjects as diverse as captatio inheritance- seeking the structure of the Roman family the manumission of slaves public philanthropy the afterlife and the relation of subject to emperor. Champlin's principal argument is that a strongly felt "duty of testacy" informed and guided most Romans a duty to reward or punish all who were important to them a duty which led them to write their wills early in life and to revise them frequently. ; 228 pages .

JOHN GOWER AND THE STRUCTURES OF CONVERSION A Reading of the Confessio Amantis
D. S. Brewer. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1992. First Edition. Hardcover. 0859913147 . No d/w outline of sticker on front cover otherwise Fine. ; This book examines the significance of John Gower's re-creations of the cultural past in the Confessio Amantis through the stories and teachings of the confessor Genius. Although the poem has many of the attributes of a compilation Gower reforms material to create a range of `wise' responses to important moral questions intended to sharpen his readers' judgment and nurture their capacity to deal with the uncertainties of the moral life. Olsson analyses the poet's conversions of old to new as an effort to inspire the moral renewal of the age. He contends that the poet sees the past as the key to the regeneration of the world. In this reading the past an ever-new and renewable repository of wisdom also holds a promise for Amans who learns that he is an old man unfit to serve in Venus's court. Thus the author perceives Gower to offer a strong responsive and balanced moral vision to an age seemingly victimised by change. KURT OLSSON is Professor of English at the University of Idaho; this his first book was awarded the prestigious Fisher Prize. ; Publications of the John Gower Society; 9.75 x 1.25 x 6.5 Inches; 275 pages .
