‎THE TYRANT'S WRIT Myths and Images of Writing in Ancient Greece‎

‎Princeton University Press. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 1994. Hardcover. 0691032386 . Light shelfwear to book and DJ. ; 280 pages; Covering material as diverse as curse tablets coins tattoos and legal decrees Deborah Steiner explores the reception of writing in archaic and classical Greece. She moves beyond questions concerning ancient literacy and the origins of the Greek alphabet to examine representations of writing in the myths and imaginative literature of the period. Maintaining that the Greek alphabet was not seen purely as a means of transcribing and preserving the spoken word the author investigates parallels between writing and other signifiers such as omens tokens and talismans; the role of inscription in religious rites including cursing oath-taking and dedication; and perceptions of how writing functioned both in autocracies and democracies. Particularly innovative is the suggestion that fifth-century Greek historians and dramatists portrayed writing as an essential tool of tyrants who not only issue written decrees but also "inscribe" human bodies with brands and cut up land with compasses and rules. The despotic overtones associated with writing inform discussion of its function in democracies. Although writing could promote equal justice ancient sources also linked this activity with historical and mythical figures who opposed the populist regime. By examining this highly nuanced portrayal of writing Steiner offers a new perspective on ancient views of written law and its role in 5th-century Athenian democracy. .

‎Francis Cairns Publications Ltd. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1984. Hardcover. 0905205162 . Foxing to ffep. Foxing/dustsoiling to top of textblock. . Scholar's bookplate to inner cover G. P. Goold. Minor shelfwear to DJ. ; The main aims of this commentary are to elucidate Sallust's narrative and to clarify his historiographical principles and methods. Such topics as the chronology and topography of the war Numidian customs and their royal family Sallust's sources the conditions of political life in contemporary Rome and Sallust's personal views are therefore given ample treatment. Textual linguistic and literary problems are discussed in so far as they relate to historical and historiographical understanding of Sallust's account. Sallust was indebted to Greek and Roman predecessors as the commentary indicates. But he also set a new fashion in Roman historiography as much by his sense of the realities of Roman public life as by the manner of his writing � a style which was later adopted and developed by Tacitus the great historian of imperial Rome. ; ARCA Classical and Medieval Texts Papers and Monographs 13; 276 pages .

‎Sallust; Patrick McGushin‎

‎SALLUST: THE HISTORIES. VOLUME II: Books iii-iv. Translated with Introduction and Commentary‎

‎Oxford At the Clarendon Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1994. Paperback. 0198721439 . Foxing to top of textblock and top edge of DJ flaps. Else minor shelfwear. ; The period covered by Sallust's Histories--78-67 BC--forms part of one of the least well documented eras of the late Republic. For nearly a century scholars have consulted the edition of B. Maurenbrecher 1891-93. Continuing research on the period has produced material with a bearing on the interpretation of Sallust's text; in addition several fragments not known to Maurenbrecher have subsequently been discovered. For this new translation McGushin has freshly revised Maurenbrecher's placement and ordering of the fragments and incorporated this newly discovered material. Together with a comprehensive introduction he provides a detailed interpretation in the first full-length commentary on the work. ; Clarendon Ancient History Series; Vol. 2; 259 pages .

Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing to extremities. ; Cambridge Classical Texts and Commentaries; 124 pages; Nothing is known of the Greek poet Rufinus other than that he was the author of a collection of thirty-nine epigrams. In fact he is such an insubstantial figure that his date has been placed at various points within nearly half a millennium. Professor Page here presents a text of Rufinus' poems and a concise commentary on them. In his introduction he considers the criteria by which a date may be established and finds evidence in favour of the fourth century AD. . Cambridge University Press hardcover‎
