Jenkyns Richard Ed.
THE LEGACY OF ROME A New Appraisal
Oxford University Press. Very Good in Very Good- dust jacket. 1992. Hardcover. 0198219172 . Bumping to lower corners. Scholar's name to ffep Robert Brown. Else book has light shelfwear. DJ has minor creasing with 1 small tear and remains of sticker applied to front panel. ; If the grandeur that was Rome has long since vanished the impact of the Eternal City can still be felt in virtually every corner of Western culture. Students of speech and rhetoric to this day study the works of Cicero for guidance. We find Roman Law setting the model for legal systems from the twelfth century to the present. And Latin itself far from being a "dead language" lives on not only in the Romance languages but also in English vocabulary and grammar. Rhetoric language law--these are just a small part of the great Roman influence that has lasted throughout the centuries. The Legacy of Rome has long been considered the standard introduction to the achievements of the Roman world. Now in a completely new edition this classic work brings together the latest scholarship in the field from some of the world's leading classical scholars. Unlike the previous version which focused on such narrow topics as commerce and administration the new edition broadens the spectrum of influence showing the impact for example of Roman literature art politics law and language on western civilization. Jasper Griffin for instance looks to the works of Shakespeare Milton Keats and Wordsworth among others to trace the lasting influence of the great Roman poet Virgil on the development of poetic forms such as the pastoral epitomized by Virgil's Eclogues and the epic poem exemplified by the Aeneid. A. T. Grafton shows how Renaissance intellectuals such as Machiavelli and Guicciardini looked to Rome's past for political enlightenment and found models of military strategy in the works of Tacitus and Livy. Editor Richard Jenkyns dispels the misconception of the Romans as purely imitative of the Greeks; he points out such uniquely Roman concepts as jurisprudence and citizenship and architecture based on the round arch and the vault as evidence of Roman innovativeness. Other contributors--George A. Kennedy Robert Feenstra and Nicholas Purcell--discuss the importance of the study of Roman rhetoric in preparing speakers for public life the lasting influence of the Justinian code on Western legal development and the impact on future civilizations of the romanticized notion of an imperial Rome and its magical ruins. ; 518 pages .

Hardwick Lorna
TRANSLATING WORDS TRANSLATING CULTURES
Bristol Classical Press. Very Good. 2000. Paperback. 0715629123 . Faint crease to 1 corner of wraps. Scholar's name to half title Robert Brown. ; Never have there been so many different types of translations of Greek and Latin literature into English. Most people experience Homer and Greek tragedy for the first time through translations. New versions of Vergil and Ovid have become best sellers. This book examines the literary and cultural environment underlying the various kinds of translation - from 'faithful' and 'equivalent' through 'imitation' to 'adaptation' and 'version' - discussing the extent to which translations have been regarded as creative work in their own right and their impact in the work of modern writers such as Harrison Heaney Hughes and Walcott. Key themes include the challenge presented by translations to conventional interpretations of the classical canon; the implications of translating across genres - for example in the staging of epic; and the role of translations in twentieth-century conflicts. Lorna Hardwick suggests that translations from Greek and Latin literature are catalysts in the refiguring of both poetic and political awareness and that in transplanting myths and metaphors into disparate cultures translations energise new senses of cultural identity. ; Classical Inter/Faces; 128 pages .

University of Michigan Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 2003. Hardcover. 0472113593 . Scholar's name to ffep Robert Brown. Else book has very light shelfwear. DJ spine a bit sunned. ; Moving beyond the usual pairing of Homer and Virgil Iliad and Aeneid Rossi refutes the notion that Homer is the only code model for the latter. This in-depth study reveals that Virgilian battle narrative assimilates conventions of other literary genres namely historiography and indirectly tragedy. Rossi demonstrates how Virgilian war narrative allows multiple and diachronic visions of reality and hence multiple systems of signification to co-exist in the text. In this way Virgil's Aeneid detaches itself from the Homeric epic and forcefully asserts its own relative modernity. ; 236 pages . University of Michigan Press hardcover

Cambridge University Press. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1991. Paperback. 0521287561 . Small tear near head of spine. Minor shelfwear. Scholar's name to half-title Robert Brown. ; This is a book about Virgil's Aeneid especially the second half of the poem are explores in some detail Virgil's use of Homer's Iliad. The author's main purpose is to try to re-establish the value and importance of books VII-XII of the Aeneid which he argues far from constituting a falling off from the more familiar earlier books Aeneid VII-XII presents a continuous epic narrative of sustained power planned and executed on the largest scale and offering a structural unity which matches that of its great model. His secondary purpose is to try to give the modern reader an impression of what Homer's Iliad meant to the implied reader of the Aeneid and to Virgil himself. Throughout Gransden places emphasis on the text as a piece of continuous narrative finding that the experience of reading VII-XII modifies the reader's sense of books I-VI. ; 232 pages .

VIRGIL'S AENEID Interpretation and Influence
The University of North Carolina Press. Very Good. 1995. Paperback. 0807844993 . Faint crease along spine. Scholar's name to ffep Robert Brown. ; In this collection of twelve of his essays distinguished Virgil scholar Michael Putnam examines the Aeneid from several different interpretive angles.

In addition a major essay on wrathful Aeneas and the tactics of Pietas is published here for the first time. Putnam first surveys the intellectual development that shaped Virgil's poetry. He then examines several of the poem's recurrent dichotomies and metaphors including idealism and realism the line and the circle and piety and fury. In succeeding chapters he examines in detail the meaning of particular books of the Aeneid and argues that a close reading of the end of the epic is crucial for understanding the poem as a whole and Virgil's goals in composing it. ; 352 pages .

HELLENISTIC POETRY
Oxford University Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1997. Hardcover. 0198140401 . Lower corners are bumped. Scholar's name to ffep Robert Brown. Light shelfwear to DJ. Dustjacket is protected in mylar. ; Special Edition for Sandpiper books -- reprint of 1988 edition. In this study of the Hellenistic poets of the third century B. C. Hutchinson provides a much-needed picture of the poetry of the period while demonstrating its quality and vitality. The work of the Hellenistic poets in the third century BC has not only an important place in Greek literature but also a particular significance for Latin poetry. Hutchinson explores the works of such writers as Theocritus Callimachus and Apollonius of Rhodes--developing a generalconception of poetry that centers around the poets' handling of tone level and form--and offers a fresh analysis of the influence of Hellenistic poetry on the city of Rome. Despite much technical work on the texts and language of these authors - Theocritus Callimachus Apollonius Rhodius and others - previous literary criticism on most of the major figures is limited in quantity and scope. He explores the work of the individual writers in turn while developing a general conception of the poetry as a whole centred around the poets' handling of tone level and form. The book concludes with a fresh approach to the influence of Hellenistic poets in Rome. All quotations in Greek or Latin have been translated by the author. ; Oxford University Press Academic Monograph Reprints; 392 pages . Oxford University Press hardcover

CLASSICS IN POST-COLONIAL WORLDS
Oxford University Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 2007. Hardcover. 0199296103 . Very light shelfwear to book and DJ. Scholar's name to ffep Robert Brown. ; Classical material was traditionally used to express colonial authority but it was also appropriated by imperial subjects to become first a means of challenging colonialism and then a rich field for creating cultural identities that blend the old and the new. Nobel prize-winners such as Derek Walcott and Seamus Heaney have rewritten classical material in their own cultural idioms while public sculpture in southern Africa draws on Greek and Roman motifs to represent histories of African resistance and liberation. These developments are explored in this collection of essays by international scholars who debate the relationship between the culture of Greece and Rome and the changes that have followed the end of colonial empires. ; Classical Presences; 420 pages .

Ausonius & Paulinus Pellaeus; Hugh G. Evelyn White
AUSONIUS: VOLUME II With the Eucharisticus of Paulinus Pellaeus
William Heinemann & Harvard University Press. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1961. Hardcover. 0674991273 . Scholar's bookplate to inner cover Robert Brown. Corner creasing to a few pages. ; Loeb Classical Library No. 115; 367 pages; Ausonius Decimus Magnus ca. 310�ca. 395 CE a doctor's son was born at Burdigala Bordeaux. After a good education in grammar and rhetoric and a short period during which he was an advocate he took to teaching rhetoric in a school which he began in 334. Among his students was Paulinus who was afterwards Bishop of Nola; and he seems to have become some sort of Christian himself. Thirty years later Ausonius was called by Emperor Valentinian to be tutor to Gratian who subsequently as emperor conferred on him honours including a consulship in 379. In 383 after Gratian's murder Ausonius retired to Bordeaux. Ausonius's surviving works some with deep feeling some composed it seems for fun some didactic include much poetry: poems about himself and family notably "The Daily Round"; epitaphs on heroes in the Trojan War memorials on Roman emperors and epigrams on various subjects; poems about famous cities and about friends and colleagues. "The Moselle" a description of that river is among the most admired of his poems. There is also an address of thanks to Gratian for the consulship. The second volume includes Eucharisticus "Thanksgiving" by Paulinus Pellaeus. . William Heinemann & Harvard University Press hardcover

Claudian; Maurice Platnauer
CLAUDIAN Volume I
William Heinemann & Harvard University Press. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1956. Hardcover. 0674991508 . Light pencilling to a few pages. Corners a bit rounded. ; Loeb Classical Library; Vol. 1; 393 pages; Claudius Claudianus Latin poet of great affairs flourished during the joint reigns 394�5 CE onwards of the brothers Honorius Emperor in the West and Arcadius in the East. Apparently a native of Greek Alexandria in Egypt he was to judge by his name of Roman descent though his first writings were in Greek and his pure Latin may have been learned by him as a foreign language. About 395 CE he moved to Italy Milan and Rome and though really a pagan became a professional court-poet composing for Christian rulers works which give us important knowledge of Honorius's time. A panegyric on the brothers Probinus and Olybrius consuls together in 395 was followed during ten years by other poems mostly epics in hexameters : in praise of consulships of Honorius 395 398 404 CE ; against the Byzantine ministers Rufinus 396 and Eutropius 399 ; in praise of the consulship 400 of Stilicho Honorius's guardian general and minister ; in praise of Stilicho's wife Serena; mixed metres on the marriage of Honorius to their daughter Maria; on the war with the rebel Gildo in Africa 398 ; on the Getic or Gothic war 402 ; on Stilicho's success against the Goth Alaric 403 ; on the consulship of Manlius Theodorus 399 ; and on the wedding of Palladius and Celerina. Less important are non-official poems such as the three books of a mythological epic on the Rape of Proserpina unfinished as was also a Battle of Giants in Greek. Noteworthy are Phoenix Senex Veronensis elegiac prefaces and the epistles epigrams and idylls. Through the patronage of Stilicho or through Serena Claudius in 404 married well in Africa and was granted a statue in Rome. Nothing is known of him after 404. In his poetry are true poetic as well as rhetorical skill command of language polished style diversity vigour satire dignity bombast artificiality flattery and other virtues and faults of the earlier 'silver' age in Latin. .

Nagy Gregory
THE BEST OF THE ACHAEANS Concepts of the Hero in Archaic Greek Poetry
The Johns Hopkins University Press. Very Good. 1981. Softcover. 0801823889 . Minor shelfwear. Scholar's blindstamp and name to half -title Robert Brown. Light edgewear to rear wrap and minor creasing. ; Despite widespread interest in the Greek hero as a cult figure little was written about the relationship between the cult practices and the portrayals of the hero in poetry. The first edition of The Best of the Achaeans bridged that gap raising new questions about what could be known or conjectured about Greek heroes. In this revised edition which features a new preface by the author Gregory Nagy reconsiders his conclusions in the light of the subsequent debate and resumes his discussion of the special status of heroes in ancient Greek life and poetry. His book remains an engaging introduction both to the concept of the hero in Hellenic civilization and to the poetic forms through which the hero is defined: the Iliad and Odyssey in particular and archaic Greek poetry in general. ; 392 pages .
