DJ spine sunned. ; The comparative study of languages was inspired by Renaissance debates over what language was spoken in the Garden of Eden. By the eighteenth century scholars were persuaded that European languages shared a common ancestor. With the adoption of positivist �scientific� methods in the nineteenth century the hunt for the language of Eden and the search for a European Ursprache diverged. Yet the desire to reconcile historical causality with divine purpose remained. Because the Indo-European languages clearly had a separate line of descent from the biblical tongues the practitioners of the new science of philology many of whom had received their linguistic training from the Church turned their scholarship to the task of justifying the ascendance of European Christianity to the principal role in Providential history. To accomplish this they invented a pair of concepts Aryan and Semitic That by the end of the century had embarked on ideological and political careers far outside philology. Supposed characteristics of the respective languages were assigned to the peoples who spoke them: thus the Semitic peoples primarily the Jews were like their language passive static and immobile while the Aryans principally Western Europeans became the active dynamic Chosen People of the future. Olender traces the development of these concepts through the work of J. G. Herder Ernest Renan Friedrich Max M�ller Adolphe Pictet Rudolph Grau and Ignaz Goldziher. He shows that despite their different approaches each of these men struggled more or less purposefully �to join romanticism with positivism in an effort to preserve a common allegiance to the doctrines of Providence. �; 228 pages .

Else very minor shelfwear to book and DJ. ; This study in comparative mythology interprets the Greek myths in the light of the mythologies of other Indo-European cultures - Indian Celtic Scandinavian Roman Greek Iranian and Ossetian. The author uses a modified version of the schema proposed by the French theorist Dumezil to consider the profound connections between such works as the "Iliad" the "Odyssey" the Indian epics - the "Ramayana" and the "Mahabharata" - the Iranian "Book of Kings" and the Scandinavian "Yaglingasaga". The book includes a long critical exposition of the discipline of comparative mythology from its 18th-century origins to the revival of the discipline by Dumezil and his followers from 1938 to the present. It also reassesses the profound critique of Dumezil which linked him with Nazi ideology. ; 256 pages . I. B. Tauris hardcover

These are listed with brief contextual information evidence for the etymology from ancient grammarians discussion of the artistic function of the wordplay and examples of its use in other works of Ovid and in other Latin poets. The introduction sets out a conceptual framework and succinctly describes etymological techniques particularly typical of although not unique to Ovid. As well as adding to the corpus of etymological reference works this study will increase appreciation both of Ovid's learning and of his wit. ; ARCA Classical and Medieval Texts Papers and Monographs 40; 204 pages .
