Shackleton Bailey D. R.
PROFILE OF HORACE
Duckworth & Company. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1982. Hardcover. 0715615912 . Minor shelfwear. Scholar's bookplate to inner cover G. P. Goold. Dustjacket spine shows discoloration. ; In this concise analysis written with elegant wit the greatest living textual critic of Latin authors offers new insight into the poetry of Horace. Horace is best known for his four books of Odes cherished for their lyric grace. His amiable persona is displayed more intimately in the moralizing verses of the Satires and Epistles. In a reading of all the poetry but focusing especially on problematic areas Shackleton Bailey examines Horace's art of self-presentation. A variety of themes are elucidated from the poet's relations with his patron to Roman sexual attitudes. Close scrutiny is given to about thirty passages which he argues have been misread. An appended essay on a notable predecessor the textual scholar Richard Bentley is especially revealing on the art of classical scholarship. ; Classical Life and Letters; 0.67 x 8.81 x 5.68 Inches; 142 pages .

Dustjacket is protected in mylar. ; 9 x 1.25 x 6 Inches; 438 pages; The literature of the western world begins with one of its greatest achievements. The stories of the wrath of Achilles and its consequences and of the wanderings of Odysseus have been admired from ancient times to the present day. The two great epics can be read and enjoyed unreflectingly as tales of adventure; or they can be studied as literature yielding as insight and understanding grow a deeper and more permanent pleasure. Professor Kirk's book is the means to this pleasure. It is a vivid and comprehensive account of the background and development of the Homeric poems and of their quality as literature. The epics are seen primarily as oral poetry sung for centuries by illiterate singers; and from this view rises discussion of the problems of authorship and transmission. The historical archaeological and linguistic evidence is also examined; and the possible contributions of the Mycenaean period and of the subsequent Dark Age are shown in a fresh light. .

Mackie Hilary
TALKING TROJAN Speech and Community in the Iliad
Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1996. Hardcover. 0847682544 . Faint foxing to top of textblock. Tiny chip to head of spine. Minor pencil marginalia to about 7 pages. ; 208 pages; In this penetrating new look at the use of language in the Iliad Hilary Mackie examines the portrayal of the opposing forces in terms not only of nationality but of linguistics. The way the Greeks and the Trojans speak Mackie argues reflects their disparate cultural structures and their relative positions in the Trojan War. While Achaean speech is aggressive and public intended to preserve social order Trojan language is more reflective private and introspective. Mackie identifies the differences between Greek and Trojan language by analyzing poetic formulas usually thought to indicate a similarity of language among Homeric characters and conversations which are seen here to be of equal importance to the numerous speeches throughout the Iliad. Mackie concludes with analyses of the two great heroes of the Iliad Hektor and Achilles and the extent to which they represent their own cultures in their use of language. .
