Mellor Ronald
TACITUS
Routledge. Very Good. 2009. Softcover. 0415910021 . Minor shelfwear. Light bump to upper corner. ; The histories of Roman senator Cornelius Tacitus constitute the most influential examination of tyranny political behavior and public morality from the classical age. For centuries these portraits of courageous martyrs to freedom of paranoid tyrants and of sycophantic flatteres and informers shaped modern political attitudes. Ronald Mellor provides a compelling analysis of the ideas of the greatest historian of evil in the western intellectual tradition. In Tacitus Ronald Mellor passionately argues for reclaiming this ironic genius whose cynical world view is particularly well-suited to an analysis of the tyranny and brutality in our own century. Tacitus is presented as a moralist psychologist political analyst and literary artist. Tacitus' greatest impact has never been on historians. Rather his political vision and dramatic images left their mark on painters poets and thinkers. ; 211 pages . Routledge paperback

Else book has very light shelfwear. ; 304 pages; The philosophers of the Roman world were asking questions whose answers had practical effects on people's lives in antiquity and which still influence our thinking to this day.

Mark Morford's lively survey makes these recent scholarly developments accessible to a wide audience examining the writings and ideas of both famous and lesser known figures - from Cato the Censor in 155 BCE to Marcus Aurelius in 180 CE. Based around extensive and fully translated quotations from the philosophical texts of the era full consideration is given throughout to historical political and cultural context. .

While for the latter we have Plato and Aristotle this insightful work explores the everyday moral conceptions to which orators appealed in court and political assemblies and which were reflected in non-philosophical literature. Oratory and comedy provide the primary testimony and reference is also made to Sophocles Euripides Herodotus Thucydides Xenophon and other sources. The selection of topics the contrasts and comparisons with modern religious social and legal principles and accessibility to the non-specialist ensure the work's appeal to all readers with an interest in ancient Greek culture and social life. .
