DJ has light edgewear with a couple of chips and light creasing. ; What did it mean to be a professional teacher in the prestigious "liberal schools"�the schools of grammar and rhetoric�in late antiquity How can we account for the abiding prestige of these schools which remained substantially unchanged in their methods and standing despite the political and religious changes that had taken place around them The grammarian was a pivotal figure in the lives of the educated upper classes of late antiquity. Introducing his students to correct language and to the literature esteemed by long tradition he began the education that confirmed his students' standing in a narrowly defined elite. His profession thus contributed to the social as well as cultural continuity of the Empire. The grammarian received honor�and criticism; the profession gave the grammarian a firm sense of cultural authority but also placed him in a position of genteel subordination within the elite. Robert A. Kaster provides the first thorough study of the place and function of these important but ambiguous figures. He also gives a detailed prosopography of the grammarians and of the other "teachers of letters" below the level of rhetoric from the middle of the third through the middle of the sixth century which will provide a valuable research tool for other students of late-antique education. ; 524 pages .

Francis Cairns Publications Ltd. Very Good- in Very Good- dust jacket. 1984. Hardcover. 0905205162 . Corners bumped. 2 pages with small red ink stain. Else minor shelfwear. Some edgewear and creasing to DJ. ; The main aims of this commentary are to elucidate Sallust's narrative and to clarify his historiographical principles and methods. Such topics as the chronology and topography of the war Numidian customs and their royal family Sallust's sources the conditions of political life in contemporary Rome and Sallust's personal views are therefore given ample treatment. Textual linguistic and literary problems are discussed in so far as they relate to historical and historiographical understanding of Sallust's account. Sallust was indebted to Greek and Roman predecessors as the commentary indicates. But he also set a new fashion in Roman historiography as much by his sense of the realities of Roman public life as by the manner of his writing � a style which was later adopted and developed by Tacitus the great historian of imperial Rome. ; ARCA Classical and Medieval Texts Papers and Monographs 13; 276 pages .

Barchiesi Alessandro & Ilaria Marchesi & Matt Fox translated by & Philip Hardie Foreword
HOMERIC EFFECTS IN VERGIL'S NARRATIVE
Princeton University Press. Very Good in Near Fine dust jacket. 2015. Hardcover. 069116181X . Publisher's stamp to base of textblock. Else book is fine. Very faint scuffing to DJ. Else fine. ; The study of Homeric imitations in Vergil has one of the longest traditions in Western culture starting from the very moment the Aeneid was circulated. Homeric Effects in Vergil's Narrative is the first English translation of one of the most important and influential modern studies in this tradition. In this revised and expanded edition Alessandro Barchiesi advances innovative approaches even as he recuperates significant earlier interpretations from Servius to G. N. Knauer. Approaching Homeric allusions in the Aeneid as "narrative effects" rather than glimpses of the creative mind of the author at work Homeric Effects in Vergil's Narrative demonstrates how these allusions generate hesitations and questions as well as insights and guidance and how they participate in the creation of narrative meaning. The book also examines how layers of competing interpretations in Homer are relevant to the Aeneid revealing again the richness of the Homeric tradition as a component of meaning in the Aeneid. Finally Homeric Effects in Vergil's Narrative goes beyond previous studies of the Aeneid by distinguishing between two forms of Homeric intertextuality: reusing a text as an individual model or as a generic matrix. For this edition a new chapter has been added and in a new afterword the author puts the book in the context of changes in the study of Latin literature and intertextuality. ; 216 pages .

Chaudhuri Pramit
THE WAR WITH GOD Theomachy in Roman Imperial Poetry
Oxford University Press. Fine in Fine dust jacket. 2014. Hardcover. 0199993386 . Epic and tragedy from Homer's Achilles and Euripides' Pentheus to Marlowe's Tamburlaine and Milton's Satan are filled with characters challenging and warring against the gods. Nowhere is the theme of theomachy more frequently and powerfully represented however than in the poetry of early imperial Rome from Ovid's Metamorphoses at the beginning of the first century AD to Statius' Thebaid near its end. This book -- the first full-length study of human-divine conflict in Roman literature -- asks why the war against god was so important to the poets of the time and how this understudied period of literary history influenced a larger tradition in Western literature. Drawing on a variety of contexts -- politics religion philosophy and aesthetics -- Pramit Chaudhuri argues for the fundamental importance of battles between humans and gods in representing the Roman world. A cast of tyrants emperors rebels iconoclasts philosophers and ambitious poets brings to life some of the most extraordinary artistic products of classical antiquity. Based on close readings of the major extant epics and selected tragedies the book replaces a traditionally Aeneid-centric view of imperial epic with a richer dialogue between Greek and Roman texts contemporary authors and diverse genres. The renewed sense of a tradition reveals how the conflicts these works represent constitute a distinctive theology informed by other discourses yet peculiar to epic and tragedy. Beginning with the Greek background and ending with a look ahead to developments in the Renaissance this book charts the history of a theme that would find its richest expression in a time when men became gods and impiety threatened the very order of the world. ; 416 pages .
