Very light bumping to bottom corners of book and top of spine. Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing.; 276 pages; The first three chapters of this book elucidate the scholastic goals of both classical cultures during the Roman Imperial period. Apuleius' works share the stage in these chapters with representatives of the second-century Greek cultural paradigm. They define patterns of discourse and fit selected examples of analogous Apuleian strategies into the broader cultural framework. Subsequent chapters focus closely on the complete Apuleian corpus under the general headings of Apuleius in the roles of orator philosopher and novelist. Two of Apuleius' philosophical works and his novel the Golden Ass provide an unparalleled opportunity to analyze the methods of translation and adaptation employed by the major Latin writer of the second half of the second century.; Signed by Author . 9004108211 .

To support this theory firstly the identification of Thule as Shetland during the classical period from the time of Pytheas onwards is investigated through collation of geographical sources secondly the earliest manuscript of Tacitus Agricola comes under closer scrutiny at the relevant points than ever before and finally contemporary literature is reassessed to determine the significance of Caledonia and Thule in the Flavian propaganda machine and to suggest the first Roman presence in the Shetland Islands. . 1407302744 .

MEMPHIS UNDER THE PTOLEMIES
Princeton University Press. 1989. Hardcover. Good in Good dust jacket. Ex-library copy with usual stamps call numbers to DJ and traces of removed circulation pastedown. A few cellotape stains to inner covers else Book is VG.; 1.25 x 9.5 x 6.5 Inches; 376 pages; The city of Memphis on the Nile which had often served as capital in the long period preceding Egypt's conquest by Alexander the Great became the country's "second city" following the founding of Alexandria. Drawing on archaeological findings and on an unusual combination of Greek and Egyptian evidence Dorothy Thompson examines the city's economic life and the character of its multi-racial society in the era from Alexander to Augustus. Memphis under the Ptolemies will interest students of intercultural relations and will be essential reading for Egyptologists papyrologists and historians of the Hellenistic world including those concerned with religion. The relationship of the native population with the Greek-speaking immigrants is illustrated in Thompson's analysis of the position of Memphite priests within the Ptolemaic state. Egyptians continued to control mummification and the cult of the dead; the undertakers of the Memphite necropolis were barely touched by things Greek. The cult of the living Apis bull also remained primarily Egyptian; yet on death the bull deified as Osorapis became Sarapis for the Greeks. Within this god's sacred enclosure the Sarapieion is found a strange amalgam of Greek and Egyptian cultures. . 0691035938 . Princeton University Press hardcover

DIE LINKE HAND; Wahrnehmung Und Bewertung in Der Griechischen Und Römischen Antike
Franz Steiner Verlag. 2010. Softcover. Near Fine. Very light rubbing else Fine.; Heidelberger Althistorische Beitrage Und Epigraphische Studien Band 47; 47; 283 pages; English summary: Human perception includes the division of space into left and right. In general left holds a negative connotation: A clumsy man appears linkisch in German links meaning left and the term translates as awkward. If you conned him he has been gelinkt. For a long time this negative coloring was also closely associated with the image of left-handers: Left-handers were often regarded as disabled appeared awkward and antisocial and were exposed to discrimination. To understand the people of ancient Greece and Rome one must understand the role right and left played in their perception and evaluation of the world. Henning Wirth studies the following questions from an ancient historical perspective: How did the Greeks and Romans perceive left What role was provided to the left hand in a dominantly right-handed world where the right hand attested Godly effectiveness And how does one explain the phenomenon of left-handedness and assessment of left-handed people German text. German description: Zur menschlichen Wahrnehmung gehort die Einteilung des Raumes in links und rechts. Dabei ist links in der Regel negativ konnotiert: Ein ungeschickter Mensch erscheint alinkisch. Hat man ihn betrogen so hat man ihn agelinkt. Lange Zeit war diese Negativfarbung auch eng mit dem Bild uber Linkshander verknupft: Linkshander galten oftmals als behindert erschienen asozial und ungeschickt und waren Diskriminierungen ausgesetzt. Will man den Menschen der griechischen und romischen Antike verstehen muss man nachvollziehen welche Rolle rechts und links in seiner Wahrnehmung und Bewertung der Welt spielten. Aus althistorischer Perspektive untersucht Henning Wirth hier folgende Fragen: Welche Vorstellungen besassen Griechen und Romer von links' Welche Rolle war in einer mehrheitlich aus Rechtshandern bestehenden Welt in der der rechten Hand gottliche Wirkkraft attestiert wurde fur die linke Hand vorgesehen' Und wie erklarte man sich das Phanomen der Linkshandigkeit und bewertete linkshandige Menschen' . 3515094490 .

Riedlberger, Peter
PHILOLOGISCHER HISTORISCHER UND LITURGISCHER KOMMENTAR ZUM 8. BUCH DER JOHANNIS DES GORIPP; Nebst Kritischer Edition Und Übersetzung
Egbert Forsten. 2010. Hardcover. Fine. Peter Riedlberger’s award-winning thesis offers an exhaustive commentary on the 8th and last book of the Iohannis. This poem intrigues its readers one more than one account: Using the well-established form of Latin epic it offers a fascinating window into the world of reconquered Roman Africa ca. 550 A. D. On one level the commentary tries to elucidate the numerous allusions to contemporary events persons and realia; on another level it firmly sets the poem in the Latin epic tradition distinguishing clearly between poetical conventions and descriptions of real-life facts. The 8th book includes an elaborate Byzantine field mass; hence the commentary’s characterisation as „liturgical“. In addition to the commentary this book comprises a critical edition of the 8th book which differs considerably from the current standard edition the first-ever German translation and a comprehensive introduction which inter alia establishes the true name of the author Gorippus not Corippus and challenges the current notion of the function and role of late antique panegyrics. Strong points include the book’s high readability its many illustrations which include useful maps and several reproductions from the codex unicus which are used habitually to prove deviant readings and its modern layout which distributes the poem’s text and translation over the commentary rather than forcing the reader to use two bookmarks. The book comes with comprehensive indices.; 503 pages; Text in German . 9069801574 . Egbert Forsten hardcover

Philosophie Der Antike Pha Band 31; 391 pages; English summary: This volume contains 20 works on ancient philosophy and its after-effects written during the period from 1978 to 2008. The largest group of works focus on Socrates his students and on schools founded by these students. Topics include: reconstructing the philosophical views of Socrates' students Antisthenes Euclid Aristippus Phaidon and Aeschines whose writings have been lost; pursuing the question of how far with the help of the results obtained to-date a picture of the philosophy of Socrates can be won that can supplement and correct the one distilled from the surviving writings of Plato and Xenophon; following the progress of the schools Cynics Megarians and Cyrenaics founded by Soctrates' students Antisthenes Euclid and Aristippus which were of considerable importance to the emergence of the two great schools of the Stoics and the Epicureans; showing the impact of Socrates on our own time with a few examples. In addition the volume contains essays on Plato the ancient political theory the philosophy of the imperial period and the reception of Epictetus' handbook of morals from antiquity to the present day.

Ausserdem enthalt der Band Aufsatze zu Platon zur antiken politischen Theorie zur Philosophie der Kaiserzeit und zur Rezeption von Epiktets Handbuchlein der Moral von der Antike bis in unsere Zeit. . 3515093281 .

The second chapter treats the physical displacement of the myth in Euripides' version of the Electra-Orestes story.

Fine in No Dust Jacket dust jacket. 202 pages; For more than two thousand years almost all doctors in the West used bloodletting to treat a great variety of diseases and conditions. In an attempt to find out why they acted thus Dr Brain has translated the three works on bloodletting by the second-century physician Galen which provide by far the most comprehensive account of the practice in antiquity. This is the first published version of these works in a modern language. After a brief summary of Galen's medical system the author goes on to consider the origins of Galen's ideas and methods with particular reference to the Hippocratic writings and the question why Galen in common with most of the ancient physicians believed in the efficacy of the comedy. The effects of bloodletting are considered in terms of modem physiology and medicine and the possibility is explored that it may indeed have been beneficial in the conditions prevailing in Galen's time. . 0521320852 .

THE GREEK WORLD OF APULEIUS; Apuleius and the Second Sophistic
Brill Academic Publishers. 1997. Hardcover. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. Very light bumping to bottom corners of book and top of spine. Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing.; 276 pages; The first three chapters of this book elucidate the scholastic goals of both classical cultures during the Roman Imperial period. Apuleius' works share the stage in these chapters with representatives of the second-century Greek cultural paradigm. They define patterns of discourse and fit selected examples of analogous Apuleian strategies into the broader cultural framework. Subsequent chapters focus closely on the complete Apuleian corpus under the general headings of Apuleius in the roles of orator philosopher and novelist. Two of Apuleius' philosophical works and his novel the Golden Ass provide an unparalleled opportunity to analyze the methods of translation and adaptation employed by the major Latin writer of the second half of the second century. . 9004108211 .
