Euripides; John Wilkins
EURIPIDES: HERACLIDAE With Introduction and Commentary
Oxford Clarendon Press. Good with no dust jacket. 1993. Hardcover. 0198147589 . Ex-library copy with usual stamps call numbers and circulation page. Light bumping to corners. ; 240 pages; This edition and commentary provides an invaluable introduction to one of Euripides' less well-known plays and describes the enormous value of the text for our understanding of Athenian drama religion and society. Heraclidae is one of Euripides' "alphabetical" plays preserved exclusively in a Laurentian manuscript and therefore not selected in antiquity. Not even in modern times despite the excellent commentaries of Elmsley 1821 and Pearson 1907 and powerful articles by Wilamwitz has the play been given the prominence it deserves. This edition interprets the play in a wide cultural setting considering unorthodox aspects of the structure of the drama but placing particular emphasis on the cults and myths of Heracles in Attica on his apotheosis and marriage on his association with the young and most of all on the two most striking rituals in the play: the voluntary self-sacrifice of the daughter of Heracles and the conversion of Eurystheus from an enemy of Athens to a hero whose dead body will protect the city-state. The text is James Diggle's Oxford Classical Texts 1984. . Oxford Clarendon Press hardcover

Fantham. ; Oxford Classical Monographs; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 232 pages; With Latin text and English translation The epic poem the Thebaid was composed by Statius about AD 80 to 92 in twelve books. The subject is the expedition of the Seven against Thebes in support of the attempt by Oedipus' son Polyneices to recover the throne from his brother Eteocles. Book IX is set in the midst of the fighting before the eventual death of the two brothers. In this new edition of Book IX Dr Dewar accompanies the Latin text with apparatus criticus a translation and an extensive introduction and commentary. The introduction contains sections on Statius' life and works a summary of the epic its themes and characters and poetry the textual tradition and Statius' influence on later European literature. The commentary the first on the ninth book to be published in Britain this century is written in the light of recent scholarship. It examines in close detail Statius' style and language use of models especially Homer Hellenistic Greek poetry Virgil Lucan and Seneca and literary intentions. It is Dr Dewar's hope that this edition will help to explain the poem's great popularity in the Middle Ages and even restore something of its lost prestige. . Oxford University Press hardcover

Barchiesi Alessandro
THE POET AND THE PRINCE Ovid and Augustan Discourse
University of California Press. Very Good in Near Fine dust jacket. 1997. Hardcover. 0520202236 . Former owner's blindstamp on ffep. Else book is fine. Dustjacket has minor shelfwear. ; Joan Palevsky Classical Literature Book; 1.01 x 9.29 x 6.26 Inches; 285 pages; In this fresh assessment of Ovid's fascinating poem Fasti Alessandro Barchiesi provides a new vision of the interaction between Ovid and the renowned ruler Augustus. Fasti a poem about the holidays and feast days of the Roman calendar was written while Ovid was in Rome and revised while he was in exile on the barbarian frontier banished by Augustus from the cultured society of Rome. Ovid's work in exile evinces complicated motives; he addresses Augustus and begs him to lift the despised exile but at the same time covertly critiques Augustus's "New Rome. " Although recent scholarship has concentrated on the oppositions between poet and ruler revealed in Ovid's work Barchiesi's analysis transcends the opposition of pro-Augustan or anti-Augustan readings. In a lively vigorous narrative that relies on close textual analysis Barchiesi underscores the important poetic choices as well as the political considerations made by Ovid in Fasti. Ultimately his analysis leads us to a more nuanced understanding of the relationship between patrons and poets. Both scholars and general readers will find a newly meaningful and interesting Ovid in these pages. Translated with revisions from Il poeta e il principe: Ovido e il discorso Augusteo 1994. .
