‎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

In addition to a survey of the literature on all aspects of the Roman family the book begins with a general picture of the main features of the family. More specialized essays deal with the legal evidence wills and property rights which were of particular importance for the position of women; with the link between property disposition dowry and divorce; with the authority of the male head of the household and its relation to political power; with the status of children born of unions between slaves and citizen; and with the rearing of and attitudes toward children. ; 288 pages; Isbn: 0801418739 .

‎University of California Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1989. Hardcover. 0520064453 . Scholar's name to ffep Robert Brown. Upper corner lightly bumped. Minor shelfwear. Minor creasing and shelfwear to DJ. ; Lucius Annaeus Seneca Nero's tutor and advisor wrote philosophical essays some of them in the form of letters and dramas on Greek mythological topics which since the early Renaissance have exercised a powerful influence on the European theater. Because in his essays Seneca in his own eclectic way subscribes to the philosophy of the Stoic school scholars and critics have long been asking the question whether the plays also could be regarded as transmitters of Stoic thought. Various answers ranging from a categorical no to an uneasy yes have been given. With few exceptions the students who have concerned themselves with this question have looked for their enlightenment in Stoic psychology and Stoic ethics. In this book Thomas G. Rosenmeyer proposes instead to look at the Stoic science of nature of the world and human beings in the world as a more plausible grounding for the difference between Senecan drama and its Greek predecessors. In the process of looking at what the Stoics especially the early Stoics had to say about the forces determining natural phenomena the author uncovers a deeply pessimistic strain in Stoic cosmology and an interest in physicality and environmental tension that he finds replicated in the theater not only of Seneca but also of the later European tradition indebted to him. ; 248 pages .
