Stokes Michael C.
DIALECTIC IN ACTION An Examination of Plato's Crito
The Classical Press of Wales. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 2005. Hardcover. 0954384598 . Minor shelfwear to DJ. ; Author's Gift inscription on ffep. ; 230 pages; Plato's Crito examines a single moral decision whether Socrates ought to escape from his death-cell. Stokes's book discusses Socrates' arguments against Crito's offer of escape. It construes Socrates' questions as genuine questions which clarify and undermine Critos positions. Stokes's approach avoids the "documentary fallacy"; it shows how Plato catered for both the novice and the experienced reader of his published works. This book offers a fresh account of Socrates' whole strategy. It demonstrates both the shakiness of Socrates' persuasion of the un-philosophical Crito to engage in dialectic and the coherence of his substantive confutation. Plato's reasoning emerges from Stokes's study with more credit than many have given it.; Signed by Author . The Classical Press of Wales hardcover

Slater William J.
ROMAN THEATER AND SOCIETY E. Togo Salmon Papers I
University of Michigan Press. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 1996. Hardcover. 0472107216 . DJ spine is lightly sunned. ; Roman Theater & Society; 9.75 x 0.75 x 6.5 Inches; 200 pages; William Slater's new volume Roman Theater and Society brings an important perspective to the much-maligned status of the Roman theater which has only recently been reappraised and appreciated as uniquely Roman rather than criticized for not being Greek. From this point of embarkation William Slater and the nine contributors discuss theater in Rome and the Greek east with a definition of performance incorporating not only stage performances but also dinnertime entertainment sporting events and political events. Contributors are T. D. Barnes K. M. Coleman J. C. Edmonson E. R. Gebhard J. R. Green E. J. Jory W. D. Lebek and D. S. Potter. Individual chapters combine literary evidence with archaeological thereby engendering a deeper appreciation for the social and political roles of Roman theater. It becomes clear that these roles were of great influence in giving voice to the popular demands of the average Roman. In examining the roles of theater the contributors turn to the players and audience themselves for deeper understanding. . University of Michigan Press hardcover

Dustjacket has a damage to the same spot otherwise fine. DJ is now in a protective mylar cover; When people think of the great generals of the Late Roman Republic most think of Pompey The Great and Julius Caesar but there were other more obscure men who were just as great in their military prowess such as Lucullus. Another one of those men was Quintus Sertorius the last Marian general who successfully repelled every commander sent against him in Spain for almost 12 years. Phillip Spann does a great job at bringing this facinating character out of obscurity: recounting his exploits and exploring what his true motives may have been. ; 239 pages .
