Dustjacket has edgewear with chipping and small tears. DJ spine browned. ; Loeb Classical Library No. 334; Vol. 2; 320 pages; Varro M. Terentius 116�27 of Reate renowned for his vast learning was an antiquarian historian philologist student of science agriculturist and poet. He was a republican who was reconciled to Julius Caesar and was marked out by him to supervise an intended national library. Of Varro's more than seventy works involving hundreds of volumes we have only his treatise On Agriculture in Loeb number 283 and part of his monumental achievement De Lingua Latina On the Latin Language a work typical of its author's interest not only in antiquarian matters but also in the collection of scientific facts. Originally it consisted of twenty-five books in three parts: etymology of Latin words books 1�7 ; their inflexions and other changes books 8�13 ; and syntax books 14�25. Of the whole work survive somewhat imperfectly books 5 to 10. These are from the section books 4�6 which applied etymology to words of time and place and to poetic expressions; the section books 7�9 on analogy as it occurs in word formation; and the section books 10�12 which applied analogy to word derivation. Varro's work contains much that is of very great value to the study of the Latin language. . Loeb Classical Library hardcover

DJ spine is sunned. ; Loeb Classical Library No. 283; 543 pages; Cato M. Porcius Cato the elder 234�149 BCE of Tusculum statesman and soldier was the first important writer in Latin prose. His speeches works on jurisprudence and the art of war his precepts to his son on various subjects and his great historical work on Rome and Italy are lost. But we have his De Agricultura; terse severely wise grimly humorous it gives rules in various aspects of a farmer's economy including even medical and cooking recipes and reveals interesting details of domestic life. Varro M. Terentius 116�27 BCE of Reate renowned for his vast learning was an antiquarian historian philologist student of science agriculturist and poet. He was a republican who was reconciled to Julius Caesar and was marked out by him to supervise an intended national library. Of Varro's more than seventy works involving hundreds of volumes we have only one on agriculture and country affairs Rerum Rusticarum and part of his work on the Latin language De Lingua Latina; Loeb nos. 333 334 though we know much about his Satires. Each of the three books on country affairs begins with an effective mise en scene and uses dialogue. The first book deals with agriculture and farm management the second with sheep and oxen the third with poultry and the keeping of other animals large and small including bees and fishponds. There are lively interludes and a graphic background of political events. . William Heinemann hardcover

Erratum page tipped in. ; Is it fair to judge early Greek rhetoric by the standards of Plato and Aristotle This text argues that it is not and yet this is the path taken by current scholarship on the subject. Arguing against this view this work sees early Greek rhetoric as largely unsystematic efforts to explore more by means than by precept all aspects of discourse. Replacing these early text by such treatises as the "Rhetoric" of Aristotle Cole explains can only be understood as part of a gradual process as artistic prose came to be disseminated in written texts and so available in a form that for the first time be analyzed evaluated and closely imitated. ; Ancient Society and History; 191 pages .

DJ spine is a bit browned. ; Virgil Horace Catullus Propertius�these are just a few of the poets whose work we would be without today were it not for the wealthy and powerful patrons upon whose support the Roman cultural establishment so greatly depended. Who were these patrons What benefits did they give to whom and why What effect did the support of such men as Maecenas and Pompey have on the lives and work of those who looked to them for aid These questions and others are addressed in this volume which explores all the important aspects of patronage�a topic crucial to the study of literature and art from Homer to the present day. The subject is approached from various vantage points: literary artistic historical. The essayists reach conclusions that dispel the many misconceptions about Roman patronage derived from seventeenth- and eighteenth-century models in England and Europe. An understanding of the workings of patronage is indispensable in helping us see how the Roman cultural establishment functioned in the four centuries of its flourishing and also in helping us read and enjoy specific poems and works of art. A book for all concerned with classical literature art and social history Literary and Artistic Patronage in Ancient Rome not only deepens our understanding of the ancient world but also suggests important avenues for future exploration. ; 200 pages .

Hutchinson G. O.
HELLENISTIC POETRY
Oxford University Press. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1988. Hardcover. 0198140401 . Very Light shelfwear to book. DJ has light edgewear and foxing. ; 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
