SOURCES FOR ANCIENT HISTORY With Contributions from Emilio Gabba Fergus Millar Anthony Snodgrass
Cambridge University Press. Very Good. 1985. Paperback. 0521289580 . Wraps have yellowing. Minor shelfwear. Scholar's name to ffep Catherine Rubincam. ; If a scholar wishes to create a picture of a topical society in all its aspects there is little of what he needs to know that he cannot know although there may still be much that he cannot understand. For the history of Greece and Rome there is a great deal that is simply unknowable. From the end of the archaic age of Greece there is an unbroken sequence of works by Greek and later Roman historians down to the end of antiquity. Their vision and range of interest were often limited and much of what they produced has been lost. Some help may be derived from the documentary material supplied in antiquity material that was the product of officials organising public activities or heads of families organising their affairs or individuals leaving their mark on the world. Beyond this the evidence of archaeology and numismatics may also be helpful. The four essays in this book set out to characterise the nature of the ancient literary tradition the inscriptional material the archaeological and numismatic evidence and to explain how and for what purposes they may be used. Chapters on Literature Epigraphy Archaology and Numismatics. ; The Sources of History - Studies in the Uses of Historical Evidence; 252 pages . Cambridge University Press paperback

More specialized essays deal with the legal evidence wills and property rights which were of particular importance for the position of women; with the link between property disposition dowry and divorce; with the authority of the male head of the household and its relation to political power; with the status of children born of unions between slaves and citizen; and with the rearing of and attitudes toward children. ; 288 pages; Isbn: 0801418739 .

Boardman John Ed.
THE OXFORD HISTORY OF CLASSICAL ART
Oxford University Press. Very Good-. 1997. Softcover. 0192853376 . Some creasing and wear to corners. Crease to spine. ; 1.1 x 10.81 x 8.62 Inches; 444 pages; The art and architecture of Ancient Greece and Rome lies at the heart of the classical tradition of the Western world. Their legacy is so familiar as to have become commonplace. The legacy may appear simple but the development of classical art in antiquity was complex and remarkably swift. It ran from near abstraction in 8th-century BC Greece through years of observation and learning from the arts of the non-Greek world to the East and in Egypt to the brilliance of the classical revolution of the 5th century which revealed attitudes and styles undreamt of by other cultures. After Alexander the Great this became the art of an empire readily learned by Rome and further developed according to the Romans' special character and needs until it provided the idiom for the imaging of Christianity. In this book the story of this pageant of the arts is told by five leading scholars. Their aim has been to demonstrate how the arts served very different societies and patrons; the roles and objectives of the artists; the way in which the classical style was disseminated far beyond the borders of the Greek and Roman world; and the splendour and quality of the arts themselves. .

HORACE'S SATIRES AND EPISTLES
W. W. Norton & Company. Very Good. 1977. Softcover. 0393090930 . Light shelfwear. Light yellowing and faint creasing to rear wrap. ; 128 pages; Early in his life and again in maturity Horace sought to turn his poetic skills to the uses of moral and aesthetic discussion in the series of didactic works translated here. In the Satires Horace adopts one persona after another each of which reduces himself to absurdity in the process of trying to argue a point of view about the ethical or artistic life. The form of the Epistles permits Horace to write with particular intimacy addressing moral issues in a persuasive yet informal way. The third epistle The Art of Poetry on the other hand is a formal poem addressed to the emperor Augustus and seeks to educate the poetic taste of the ruler of the western world. . W. W.

Pedley John Griffiths
THE LIFE AND WORK OF FRANCIS WILLEY KELSEY Archaeology Antiquity and the Arts
University of Michigan Press. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 2012. Hardcover. 0472118021 . 1 corner very lightly bumped. Else fine. ; President of the Archaeological Institute of America professor at the University of Michigan from 1889 to 1927 and president of the American Philological Association Francis Kelsey was crucially involved in the founding or growth of major educational institutions. He came to maturity in a period of great technological change in communications transportation and manufacturing. Kelsey took full advantage of such innovations in his ceaseless drive to promote education for all to further the expansion of knowledge and to champion the benefits of the study of antiquity. A vigorous traveler around the United States Europe and the Mediterranean Kelsey strongly believed in the value of personally viewing sites ancient and modern and collecting artifacts that could be used by the new museums and universities that were springing up in the United States. This collecting habit put him in touch with major financiers of the day including Charles Freer Andrew Carnegie and J. P. Morgan as he sought their help for important projects. Drawing heavily on Kelsey's daily diaries now held at the University of Michigan's Bentley Historical Library John Griffiths Pedley gives us a biography that records the wide-ranging activities of a gifted and energetic scholar whose achievements mirrored the creative and contributive innovations of his contemporary Americans. ; 468 pages .
