Staley Gregory A.
SENECA AND THE IDEA OF TRAGEDY
Oxford University Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 2009. Hardcover. 0195387430 . Upper corners very lightly bumped else fine. Very light shelfwear to DJ. ; As both a literary genre and a view of life tragedy has from the very beginning spurred a dialogue between poetry and philosophy. Plato famously banned tragedians from his ideal community because he believed that their representations of vicious behavior could deform minds. Aristotle set out to answer Plato's objections arguing that fiction offers a faithful image of the truth and that it promotes emotional health through the mechanism of catharsis. Aristotle's definition of tragedy actually had its greatest impact not on Greek tragedy itself but on later Latin literature beginning with the tragedies of the Roman poet and Stoic philosopher Seneca 4 BC - AD 65. Scholarship over the last fifty years however has increasingly sought to identify in Seneca's prose writings a Platonic poetics which is antagonistic toward tragedy and which might therefore explain why Seneca's plays seem so often to present the failure of Stoicism. As Gregory Staley argues in this book when Senecan tragedy fails to stage virtue we should see in this not the failure of Stoicism but a Stoic conception of tragedy as the right vehicle for imaging Seneca's familiar world of madmen and fools. Senecan tragedy enacts Aristotle's conception of the genre as a vivid image of the truth and treats tragedy as a natural venue in which to explore the human soul. Staley's reading of Seneca's plays draws on current scholarship about Stoicism as well as on the writings of Renaissance authors like Sir Philip Sidney who borrowed from Seneca the word "idea" to designate what we would now label as a "theory" of tragedy. Seneca and the Idea of Tragedy will appeal broadly to students and scholars of classics ancient philosophy and English literature. ; 200 pages . Oxford University Press hardcover

Conte Gian Biagio
THE HIDDEN AUTHOR An Interpretation of Petronius's Satyricon
University of California Press. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1997. Hardcover. 0520207157 . Paperclip indent to first 2 pages. Else book is fine. DJ has very minor shelfwear. ; The Satyricon of Petronius a comic novel written in the first century A. D. is famous today primarily for its amazing banquet tale "Trimalchio's Feast." But this episode is only one part of the larger picture of life during Nero's rule presented in the work. In this accessible discussion of Petronius's masterful use of parody Gian Biagio Conte offers an interpretation of the Satyricon as a whole. He combines the scholarly precision of close reading with a significant original theoretical model. At the heart of his interpretation Conte reveals the technique of the "hidden author" that Petronius employs at the expense of his characters in particular the teller of the story Enclopius. By remaining hidden outside the narrative Petronius invites the reader to smile at the folies de grandeur that occur in a culture of scholars and declaimers. Yet as Conte shows behind the parody and inexhaustible humor of the Satyricon lies an unexpectedly serious lament. For those familiar with the Satyricon as well as for new readers Conte's book will be a reliable enjoyable guide to the wonders the Satyricon contains. ; Sather Classical Lectures 60; 224 pages .

Thomas Richard Felstead
READING VIRGIL AND HIS TEXTS Studies in Intertextuality
University of Michigan Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 2000. Hardcover. 0472108972 . 1 corner bumped. Minor shelfwear. Light pencil marginalia to a couple of pages. DJ has some minor creasing. ; There has long been vital interest in the ways that texts affect each other--through translation imitation parody and other forms of emulation and subversion. Throughout the last two millennia the Virgilian text has created its own intertextual heritage persisting in the works of Eliot Frost Lowell and Heaney. Richard F. Thomas's new volume demonstrates that such control and manipulation of the inherited tradition is to be found with great intensity in the very author who in turn created his own complex tradition. The articles and notes included in this volume have been selected for their diachronic aspect in addition to the synchronic status they had in their original context. Dealing with the intricate ways in which Virgil and in the introductory chapter his predecessor Catullus manipulated and appropriated their inherited Greek and Roman literary tradition this book presents a coherent profile through these detailed studies of the mechanics of one of the most dynamic periods in the literary history of any culture. Richard Thomas--one of the most important voices in Latin literary studies today--shows little anxiety about objections to authorial intentionality. Throughout there is a working assumption that intertextual connections can be established and further that functions and purposes even intended ones may be inferred from those connections. This book will be of interest to scholars and students of Greek and Latin literature but will also be of great value to students of medieval Renaissance and early modern vernacular literatures most of whose poets see themselves as closely connected to Virgil. ; 360 pages .

Lund Dr Helen S
LYSIMACHUS A Study in Early Hellenistic Kingship
Routledge. Very Good in Near Fine dust jacket. 1992. Hardcover. 0415070619 . Very light bumping to corners of book. Else fine. DJ has very light shelfwear. ; 0.94 x 8.66 x 5.59 Inches; 304 pages; Among Alexander's successors Lysimachus is the forgotten man; when he is recalled it is usually as brutal oppressor of the Greeks or conversely as a mediocre little man spurred into action only late in life by a domineering woman. As the first full-length study of Lysimachus in the English language this book aims to reassess Lysimachus' achievements which although ephemeral foreshadowed the growth of the Pergamene and Byzantine empires. Helen Lund sets Lysimachus' actions against the background of the early Hellenistic world marked by extreme political instability and constant warfare but also by great developments in city building portraiture and numismatics. Lysimachus' practice in warfare kingship and government is compared and contrasted with that of his contemporaries his predecessors and his successors in order to set his achievements in the context of a continuum of imperial rule in Asia Minor. The evidence for Lysimachus's rule is set in its literary political and social context. Covering Lysimachus's rise from governor of the obscure satrapy of Thrace to ruler of a vast Hellespont-centered kingdom this book analyzes his skills as warrior and diplomat and examines the factors which motivated him at each stage of his career. Helen Lund discusses images of Lysimachus in literature his contribution to early Hellenistic kingship ritual and royal propaganda offering a completely fresh approach to the dynastic struggle which ended his career. .

Slight damage to upper edge of DJ. ; Roman Imperial Biographies; 0.95 x 9.43 x 6.38 Inches; 271 pages; Augustus the heir to Julius Caesar was the guiding light in the transformation of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire. In this biography Pat Southern traces the life and works of the emperor chronologically presenting idealogy and events as they occurred from Augustus' point of view including his transition from heir and successor of Julius Caesar to head of the new Principate and his development of the Roman Empire. Augustus did not have a master plan of politics and legislation but instead he had to wait and occasionally change course before he settled on a version of government that the Senate and people found acceptable. While there have been many books covering the political social and aesthetic culture of the Augustan Age this is the first book to present the life of Augustus the man. . Routledge hardcover

ROMAN RELIGION IN VALERIUS MAXIMUS

Staining to lower section of DJ the reverse section cannot be seen unless DJ is removed. Small scratches to rear panel of DJ. ; Routledge Classical Monographs; 288 pages; Valerius Maximus was an indefatigable collector of historical anecdotes illustrating vice and virtue. His Memorable Deeds and Sayings are unparalleled as a source for the opinions of Romans in the early empire on a vast range of subjects. Mueller focuses on what Valerius can tell us about contemporary Roman attitudes to religion attacking several orthodoxies along the way. He argues that Roman religion could be deeply emotional. That it was possible to believe passionately in the divinity of the emperor - even when like Tiberius he was still alive - and that Rome's gods and religious rituals had an important role in fostering conventional morality. The study further explores elements of ancient rhetoric Roman historiography and Tiberian Rome. The fact that Valerius was a contemporary of Jesus means his work is also valuable in reflecting the attitudes and beliefs of the ruling class to which Christ and his followers were politically subject and which formed the background to the growth and persecution of Christianity. .

Kovacs David
EURIPIDEA
E. J. Brill. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 1994. Hardcover. 9004099263 . Very light yellowing to back panel of DJ. ; This work contains material to supplement volume one of the author's "Loeb Euripides". It consists of two parts: Testimonia Vitae et Artis Selecta and Textual Discussions. The Testimonia ancient notes about the life of Euripides and his career as a tragic poet are printed together with a facing English translation. The Loeb introduction examines this material critically. Equipped with this body of evidence students of Greek tragedy and of ancient biography will be able to assess for themselves the reliability of the biographical tradition in which the author argues too much confidence has been placed by interpreters of plays. The Textual Discussions explain places in the plays of volume one "Cyclops" "Alcestis" and "Medea" where the text adopted by the editor calls for comment. ; Mnemosyne Bibliotheca Classica Batava Supplementum; 181 pages .

Deforest Mary Margolies
APOLLONIUS' ARGONAUTICA A Callimachean Epic
E. J. Brill. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1994. Hardcover. 9004100172 . Scholars' large bookplate to ffep John H. Betts. Else book is fine. Dustjacket has minor shelfwear. Small strip of back panel has lightly browned. ; The "Argonautica" was said to have been the source of a quarrel between Apollonius who wrote what looks like an epic poem and Callimachus who denounced the writing of epic poetry. Although the quarrel did not take place in the real world its issue controls the poem. The heroes are determined to take part in a Homeric epic which the Callimachean narrator refuses to write. Drawing on the methods of modern literary theorists but eschewing the jargon DeForest shows how Apollonius uses the literary dispute in Alexandria to give a three-dimensional quality to his poem. The amusing conflict between heroes and narrator turns serious when the levels of narrative split apart and Medea steps into the gap as a free-standing figure the forerunner of powerful women in fiction. ; Mnemosyne Bibliotheca Classica Batava Supplementum; 160 pages .

THE SAMNITES OF THE FOURTH CENTURY BC As Depicted on Campanian Vases and in Other Sources.

Mostly this means Campanian red-figure vase painting although the author also discusses vases in other South Italian fabrics. Tomb-paintings also give us details while references by ancient writers fill in some of the gaps in the information. Some items of Samnite armour and weaponry have survived and these allow us to assess the reliability and realism of the iconographic record. ; Bulletin of the Institute of Classical Studies Supplement 61 / Accordia Specialist Studies on Italy 2; 266 pages .

Littlewood C. A. J.
SELF-REPRESENTATION AND ILLUSION IN SENECAN TRAGEDY
Oxford University Press. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 2004. Hardcover. 0199267618 . Gift inscription from author to 'Michael' on ffep. Very light shelfwear to book. Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing. ; A. J. Littlewood approaches Seneca's tragedies as Neronian literature rather than as reworkings of Attic drama and emphasizes their place in the Roman world and in the Latin literary corpus. The Greek tragic myths are for Seneca mediated by non-dramatic Augustan literature. In literary terms Phaedra's desire Hippolytus' innocence and Hercules' ambivalent heroism look back through allusion to Roman elegy pastoral and epic respectively. Ethically the artificiality of Senecan tragedy the consciousness that its own dramatic worlds events and people are literary constructs responds to the contemporary Stoical dismissal of the public world as mere theatre. ; Oxford Classical Monographs; 344 pages; Signed by Author .
