‎University of California Press. Fine in Fine dust jacket. 1993. Hardcover. 0520076850 . Dustjacket is protected in mylar. ; 259 pages; The enigmatic three-mile-long Dema wall in the countryside outside ancient Athens has perplexed archaeologists and historians for decades. When was it built and what role did it play in Greek military history In a tour de force of archaeological and historical argument Mark H. Munn establishes the place of the Dema wall in the defense of Athens and offers a completely new perspective on the Boiotian War. Since no ancient reference to the wall survives scholars have contested the date and purpose of the wall's construction placing it anywhere between the Geometric Age and Hellenistic eras. While directing the excavation of a watchtower above the wall Munn's chance discovery of a datable sherd in the wall's remains fixed the date of the wall's construction at 378 B. C. the onset of the three-year Boiotian War. Munn offers an absorbing narrative account of the war and his descriptions and effective use of literary extracts render a vivid portrayal of the opposing generals military tactics and battle scenes. .

‎CLASSICAL LITERARY CAREERS AND THEIR RECEPTION‎

‎Cambridge University Press. Fine in Fine dust jacket. 2010. Hardcover. 0521762979 . 342 pages; This is a wide-ranging collection of essays on ancient Roman literary careers and their reception in later European literature with contributions by leading experts. Starting from the three major Roman models for constructing a literary career - Virgil the rota Vergiliana Horace and Ovid - the volume then looks at alternative and counter-models in antiquity: Propertius Juvenal Cicero and Pliny. A range of post-antique responses to the ancient patterns are then examined from Dante to Wordsworth and including Petrarch Shakespeare Milton Marvell Dryden and Goethe. These chapters pose the question of the continuing relevance of ancient career models as ideas of authorship change over the centuries leading to varying engagements and disengagements with classical literary careers. There are also chapters on other ways of concluding or extending a literary career: bookburning and figurative metempsychosis. . Cambridge University Press hardcover‎

This approach represents a novel and exciting development in Euripidean studies since it is only very recently that the fragmentary plays have begun to appear in reliable and readily accessible editions. The book�s thirty-two contributors constitute an international 'who�s who' of Euripidean studies and Athenian drama and their contributions will certainly feature in the forefront of scholarly discourse on Euripides and Greek drama for years to come. .

‎THE HUMANITY OF THUCYDIDES‎

‎Princeton University Press. Near Fine. 1994. Softcover. 0691017263 . Spine has light discoloration else Fine. ; 1 x 9.75 x 6.5 Inches; 235 pages; Thucydides has long been celebrated for the unflinching realism of his presentation of political life. And yet as some scholars have asserted his work also displays a profound humanity. In the first thorough exploration of the relation between these two traits Clifford Orwin argues that Thucydides' humanity is not a reflection of the author's temperament but an aspect of his thought above all of his articulation of the central problem of political life the tension between right and compulsion. This book provides the most complete treatment to date of Thucydides' handling of the problem of injustice as well as the most extensive interpretations yet of the speeches in which it comes to light. Thucydides does not merely display the weakness of justice in the world but joins his characters in exploring the implications of this weakness for our understanding of what justice is. Orwin pursues this question through Thucydides' work and relates it to the historian's other leading concerns such as the contrast between the Athenian way and the Spartan way the role of piety in political life the interaction of foreign and domestic politics and the role of statesmanship in a world dominated by frenzies of hope fear and indignation. Above all Orwin demonstrates the richness complexity and daring of Thucydides' articulation of these issues. . Princeton University Press paperback‎
