‎PROMISED VERSE Poets in the Society of Augustan Rome‎

‎Harvard University Press. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 1993. Hardcover. 067471525X . Book is fine. DJ protected in mylar. ; It served a poet well indeed to have Augustus for a friend. And if Augustus were a friend of poets All the better for the great glory of Roman letters. It is this arrangement complicated by questions of influence and accommodation and simple human susceptibility to the blandishments of power that Peter White explores in "Promised Verse". Combining social history and literary interpretation this book reveals the circumstances of poetic production in the golden era of Virgil Ovid Horace Tibullus and Propertius. Peter White takes a close look at the relationship between the Augustan poets and the men of wealth and status who befriended them - and rewarded their literary efforts with money gifts and the benefits of illustrious connection. These ties - between for instance Horace and Maecenas - appear as part of an elaborate system of social conventions a system of mutual advantage to poet and patron. Within this context White also considers groups and institutions - the mysterious collegium poetarum the schools of the grammarians libraries and public recitations - that helped the poet make his way and linked him to Roman society. In Augustus we see a patron comparable in many ways to his aristocratic counterparts. The Emperor sought to promote Roman literature and yet seems to have intervened only rarely in the poetry he sponsored. Contrary to a view that has been prevalent since the eighteenth century the result was not literary propaganda. Instead White shows the public poetry created by Augustan poets was as independent and inventive as the rest of their work. ; 330 pages . Harvard University Press hardcover‎

‎FROM POLYPRAGMON TO CURIOSUS Ancient Concepts of Curious and Meddlesome‎

‎Oxford University Press. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 2013. Hardcover. 0199668612 . Light bump to top of spine. Else book is fine. ; From Polypragmon to Curiosus is a study of how Greek and Latin writers describe curious meddlesome and exaggerated behaviour. Founded on a detailed investigation of a family of Greek terms often treated as synonymous with each other and of the Latin words used to describe them opening chapters survey how they were used in Greek literature from the 5th and 4th centuries BC moving onto their Latin usage and relationship to that of Hellenistic and imperial Greek. Other chapters adopt a more thematic approach and consider how words such as polypramon periergos philopragmon and curiosus are employed in descriptions of the world of knowledge opened up by empire - in discourses of pious and impious curiosity in reflections on what constitutes useful and useless learning and in descriptions of style. The themes which the volume addresses remain alive throughout the literature of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance most obviously through emblematic figures of human curiosity such as Dante's Ulisse and Marlowe's Dr Faustus. ; 272 pages .
