DITHYRAMB TRAGEDY AND COMEDY
Oxford Clarendon Press. Very Good in Fair dust jacket. 1927. First Edition. Hardcover. Upper corners a bit bumped. Scholar's bookplate to inner cover G. P. Goold. Small Corrections done in ink to a few pages. DJ is tattered and has been crudely repaired with tape. Some tears and chipping to DJ. DJ is price-clipped. ; Original 1927 Edition ; 346 pages; One of the major scholars of the 1920s and 30s concerned with the origins of Greek drama Sir Arthur Pickard-Cambridge focused in particular on the evidence derived from archaeological finds and papyri. He describes this history of the earliest stages of Greek drama as "a dispassionate attempt to ascertain historical truth or probability by methods as logical as the subject permits. "The study begins by bringing together what was known of the dithyramb and argues against Aristotle's statement that tragedy originated from the leaders of the dithyramb and against the theory put forward by Sir William Ridgeway that it originated in performances at the tombs of dead heroes. .

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

Else minor shelfwear. ; This volume contains a selection of the more important and influential of Professor F. W. Walbank's occasional papers.

Others are concerned with problems of third- and second-century Roman history. Eight papers treat the antecedents of so-called 'tragic history' speeches in ancient historians and several aspects of Polybius' work. Finally the selection includes Professor Walbank's detailed discussion of the chronology of Ptolemy IV's death and the accession of Ptolemy Epiphanes. A full bibliography of the author's publications concludes the volume. ; 400 pages . Cambridge University Press hardcover
