HOMER'S ANCIENT READERS The Hermeneutics of Greek Epic's Earliest Exegetes
Princeton University Press. Very Good in Near Fine dust jacket. 1992. Hardcover. 0691069344 . Faint foxing to top of textblock. Light shelfwear to book and DJ. Dustjacket is protected in mylar. ; Although the influence of Homer on Western literature has long commanded critical attention little has been written on how various generations of readers have found meaning in his texts. These seven essays explore the ways in which the Iliad and the Odyssey have been read from the time of Homer through the Renaissance. By asking what questions early readers expected the texts to answer and looking at how these expectations changed over time the authors clarify the position of the Iliad and the Odyssey in the intellectual world of antiquity while offering historical insight into the nature of reading. This collection surveys the entire field of preserved ancient interpretations of Homer beginning with the fictional audiences portrayed within the poems themselves proceeding to readings by Aristotle the Stoics and Aristarchus and Crates and culminating in the spiritualized allegorical reading current among Platonists of the fifth and sixth centuries C. E. The influence of these ancient interpretations is then examined in Byzantium and in the Latin West during the Renaissance. Contributors to this volume are Robert Browning Anthony Grafton Robert Lamberton A. A. Long James Porter Nicholas Richardson and Charles Segal. ; Magie Classical Publications; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 192 pages . Princeton University Press hardcover

A HITTITE GLOSSARY Words of Known or Conjectured Meaning with Sumerian and Akkadian Words Occuring in Hittite Texts
Linguistic Society of America University of Pennsylvania. Very Good- with no dust jacket. 1936. Second Edition. Hardcover. Former owner's name in pen to ffep. Light rubbing to boards. Spine is heavily spotted and discolored. ; The Hittite language is the dead language once spoken by the Hittites a people who once created an empire centered on ancient Hattusa modern Bogazk�y in north-central Anatolia modern Turkey. The language was used from approximately 1600 BC and probably before to 1100 BC. There is some attestation that Hittite and related languages were still spoken for a few hundred years after that. Hittite is one of the earliest attested Indo-European languages although marked differences in its structure and phonology have led some philologists to argue that it should be classified as a sister language to the Indo-European languages rather than a daughter language. ; William Dwight Whitney Linguistic Series; 192 pages .

Ford Andrew Laughlin
THE ORIGINS OF CRITICISM Literary Culture and Poetic Theory in Classical Greece
Princeton University Press. Very Good in Near Fine dust jacket. 2002. Hardcover. 0691074852 . Light spotting to boards. Faint foxing to top of textblock. Dustjacket is protected in plastic sleeve. ; By "literary criticism" we usually mean a self-conscious act involving the technical and aesthetic appraisal by individuals of autonomous works of art. Aristotle and Plato come to mind. The word "social" does not. Yet as this book shows it should--if that is we wish to understand where literary criticism as we think of it today came from. Andrew Ford offers a new understanding of the development of criticism demonstrating that its roots stretch back long before the sophists to public commentary on the performance of songs and poems in the preliterary era of ancient Greece. He pinpoints when and how later in the Greek tradition than is usually assumed poetry was studied as a discipline with its own principles and methods. The Origins of Criticism complements the usual history-of-ideas approach to the topic precisely by treating criticism as a social as well as a theoretical activity. With unprecedented and penetrating detail Ford considers varying scholarly interpretations of the key texts discussed. Examining Greek discussions of poetry from the late sixth century B. C. Through the rise of poetics in the late fourth he asks when we first can recognize anything like the modern notions of literature as imaginative writing and of literary criticism as a special knowledge of such writing. Serving as a monumental preface to Aristotle's Poetics this book allows readers to discern the emergence within the manifold activities that might be called criticism of the historically specific discourse on poetry that has shaped subsequent Western approaches to literature. ; 356 pages .

THE IDEA OF EPIC
University of California Press. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1991. Hardcover. 0520068149 . Faint foxing to textblock else book is fine. DJ spine sunned and discolored. Dustjacket is protected in plastick sleeve. ; Eidos; 0.75 x 8.75 x 6 Inches; 200 pages; The idea of epic is elusive. The classical tradition of epic poetry emerged from the heroic poetry of one tribe of one people the Ionian Greeks. The fame of the Iliad and Odyssey inspired emulators and created a genre which remained in high favor throughout the classical epoch and was revived in the Renaissance. Modern literature however has neglected it and the word "epic" no longer connotes a literary form. J. B. Hainsworth explores the development of the epic genre the causes of its success in classical literature and the reasons for the failure of the genre after its triumphs in the Renaissance. The idea of epic Hainsworth argues is composite. As the offspring of a tradition of heroic poetry it is a narrative of historical or fictional events. However the Homeric epics try to make sense of events by relating them to some theme for example heroism and explaining them in terms of a metaphysical idea such as destiny or the will of God. In the literary epic of the classical period the narrative element divided into historical and mythological forms; authors exploited national political and romantic themes. Hainsworth examines the way in which these ideas intersect in classical criticism and in Hellenistic and Roman epic. Hainsworth demonstrates that after its first flowering the epic became an artificial literary form justified by the authority of the Homeric poems. When the poetic form was abandoned the idea of epic dissolved leaving as its ghost the expression in other forms of the metaphysical ideas of the Greek and Roman epics. .

They form the first recorded attempt at systematic character writing. The book has been regarded by some as an independent work; others incline to the view that the sketches were written from time to time by Theophrastus and collected and edited after his death; others again regard the Characters as part of a larger systematic work but the style of the book is against this. Theophrastus has found many imitators in this kind of writing notably Hall 1608 Sir Thomas Overbury 1614�16 Bishop Earle 1628 and Jean de La Bruy�re 1688 who also translated the Characters. ; 153 pages .

Else fine. ; The long and bitter struggle between the great Persian Empire and the fledgling Greek states reached its high point with the extraordinary Greek victory at Salamis in 480 B. C. The astonishing sea battle banished forever the specter of Persian invasion and occupation. Peter Green brilliantly retells this historic moment evoking the whole dramatic sweep of events that the Persian offensive set in motion. The massive Greek victory despite the Greeks' inferior numbers opened the way for the historic evolution of the Greek states in a climate of creativity independence and democracy one that provided a model and an inspiration for centuries to come. Green's accounts of both Persian and Greek strategies are clear and persuasive; equally convincing are his everyday details regarding the lives of soldiers statesmen and ordinary citizens. He has first-hand knowledge of the land and sea he describes as well as full command of original sources and modern scholarship. The Greco-Persian Wars is a book that lovers of fine historical writing will greet with pleasure. ; 1.29 x 9.51 x 6.53 Inches; 344 pages . University of California Press paperback

CONSTRUCTING LITERATURE IN THE ROMAN REPUBLIC
Cambridge University Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 2005. Hardcover. 052185461X . Tiny stain to rear endpaper else book is fine. Light rubbing and shelfwear to DJ. ; How the Romans came to have a literature reflecting native and foreign impulses and how it formed a legacy for subsequent generations have become central questions in the cultural history of the Republic. This book explores the development of Roman literary sensibility from early interest in epic and drama through invention of satire and eventual enshrining of books in public collections important to Horace and Ovid. The "early" literature is seen to be a product less of the mid-Republic when poetic texts began to circulate than of the late Republic when they were systematically collected and canonized. ; 262 pages .
