‎THE ART OF BACCHYLIDES‎

‎Harvard University Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1985. First Edition. Hardcover. 0674046668 . Scholars' name to ffep Mark Golden. Else book is fine. Very light shelfwear to DJ. ; Martin Classical Lectures 29; 224 pages; Anne Burnett shows us the art of Bacchylides in the context of Greek lyric traditions. She discusses the beginnings of choral poetry and the functions of the choral myth; she describes the purposes of the victory song in particular and the practices of Bacchylides and Pindar as they fulfilled their victory commissions. In analyzing individual poems Burnett's approach is two-fold for each ode is seen as a choral performance reflecting archaic cult practice while it is also studied as the expression of a particular poetic vision and sensibility. Thus the formal elements of the Bacchylidean victory songs are recognized as the response of a chorus which must give semi-religious praise to a noble athlete or prize-winning prince in times of increasing democracy. At the same time an artistry and an ethic peculiar to Bacchylides are discovered in the manipulation of fictions and mythic materials. . Harvard University Press hardcover‎

‎Fantham Professor Elaine‎

‎ROMAN LITERARY CULTURE From Cicero to Apuleius‎

‎The Johns Hopkins University Press. Near Fine. 1999. Softcover. 0801862019 . Scholars' name to ffep Mark Golden. Else book is fine. ; Ancient Society and History; 352 pages; Scholars of ancient literature have often focused on the works and lives of major authors rather than on such questions as how these works were produced and who read them. In Roman Literary Culture Elaine Fantham fills that void by examining the changing social and historical context of literary production in ancient Rome and its empire. Fantham discusses the habits of Roman readers and developments in their means of access to literature from booksellers and copyists to pirated publications and libraries. She examines the issues of patronage and the utility of literature. She shows how the constraints of the physical object itself�the ancient "book"�influenced the practice of both reading and writing. And she explores the ways in which ancient criticism and critical attitudes reflected cultural assumptions of the time. . The Johns Hopkins University Press paperback‎

‎Janan Micaela‎

‎THE POLITICS OF DESIRE Propertius IV‎

‎University of California Press. Very Good. 2000. Softcover. 0520223217 . Scholars' name to ffep Mark Golden. Very light shelfwear else fine. ; 293 pages; Propertius ca. 54 b. C. --ca. 2 b. C. was a Roman poet who composed four compelling books of elegies in the chaotic years surrounding Rome's transition from republic to empire. The first three of these books revolve mostly around a tormented love affair with a woman called Cynthia. The fourth book of poetry rests on more diverse subject matter and is notoriously the most opaque and elusive. In The Politics of Desire Micaela Janan radically reassesses Propertius' last elegies using contemporary psychoanalytic theory to illuminate these challenging texts. Janan finds that the upheaval of Rome's transformation to empire corresponds to the intellectually unsettled conditions of our own time so that contemporary methodologies offer an uncannily suitable approach for understanding Propertius. In particular she uses the work of Jacques Lacan since it provides the best conceptual tools for examining the relation between political crisis and the struggles of the self a theme that resonates in these difficult elegies. This book expands our understanding of an important Roman poet and its innovative and sophisticated methodological approach makes a substantial contribution to feminist and psychoanalytic criticism. In addition Janan addresses elegy's relationship to larger cultural questions and broadens our understanding of the social crisis affecting Rome during the early empire. .

Former owner's name neatly written to top foreedge and bottom of textblock. Pages a little tanned and browned. ; In Roman Laughter the first book-length study of Plautus Segal argues that this neglected writer often denounced by scholars for such crimes as "barbarous clownery" merits our serious attention precisely because he was the most successful poet of the ancient world. He analyzes the reasons behind this success placing the author in his social and historical context and observing that Plautus's wildly comedic flouting of Roman law and custom had a cathartic effect upon a people bound by rule in every aspect of their lives. This expanded edition contains a new preface that reconsiders the work of Plautus in light of recent scholarship and also contains essays on the Amphitryon and the Captivi. ; Harper Torchbooks; 316 pages .

‎BARBARIAN PLAY Plautus' Roman Comedy‎

‎University of Toronto Press Scholarly Publishing Division. Very Good. 1996. Softcover. 0802079415 . Scholars' name to halftitle Mark Golden. Very light shelfwear. ; In this volume William S. Anderson sets Plautus who wrote Rome's earliest surviving poetry in his rightful place among the Greek and Roman writers of what we know as New Comedy fourth to second centuries. Anderson begins by defining major innovations that Plautus made on inherited Greek New Comedy Menander Philemon and Diphilus transforming it from romantic domestic drama to a celebration of rollicking family anarchy. He shows how Plautus diminished the traditional importance of love and replaced it with a new major theme: 'heroic badness' especially embodied in the rogue slave ancestor of the impudent servant valet or maid. Anderson then examines the unique verbal texture of Plautus' drama and demonstrates his revolt against realism his drive to have his characters defy everyday circumstances and pit their intrepid linguistic wit against social order their Roman extravagant impudence against Greek self-control. Finally Anderson explores the special form of metatheatre that we admire in Plautus by which he undermines the assumptions of his Greek models' and replaces them with a new confident Roman comedy. ; Robson Classical Lectures; 194 pages .
