Dustjacket has shelfwear and rubbing. Creasing/waviness to front panel of DJ. ; On 2 September 31 B. C. E. the heir of Julius Caesar defeated the forces of Antony and Cleopatra in a naval engagement at Actium. Despite the varied judgments this battle received in antiquity common opinion held that Actium marked the start of a new era a turning point in Roman history and indeed in Western civilization. Actium and Augustus marks a turning point as well. Robert Alan Gurval's unusual approach is to examine contemporary views of the battle and its immediate political and social consequences. He starts with a consideration of the official celebration and public commemoration of the Actian victory and then moves on to other questions. What were the "Actian" monuments that Octavian erected on the battle site and later in Rome What role did the Actian victory play in the political formation of the Principate and its public ideology What was the response of contemporary poetry Throughout this volume concentrates on contemporary views of Actium and its results. Written to include the general reader Actium and Augustus presents a thoughtful examination of a complex period. All Greek and Latin quotations are translated and extensive illustrations present graphic evidence about the issues Romans faced. ; 9.75 x 1.25 x 6.5 Inches; 270 pages; Signed by Author .

Chipping and small tears to head of DJ spine. Else minor chipping to DJ. ; 349 pages; In ancient Greece as today popular moral attitudes differed importantly from the theories of moral philosophers. While for the latter we have Plato and Aristotle this insightful work explores the everyday moral conceptions to which orators appealed in court and political assemblies and which were reflected in non-philosophical literature. Oratory and comedy provide the primary testimony and reference is also made to Sophocles Euripides Herodotus Thucydides Xenophon and other sources. The selection of topics the contrasts and comparisons with modern religious social and legal principles and accessibility to the non-specialist ensure the work's appeal to all readers with an interest in ancient Greek culture and social life. .

Lacey W. K.
THE FAMILY IN CLASSICAL GREECE
Cornell University Press. Very Good. 1984. Softcover. 0801492742 . Faint crease to front wrap. Minor shelfwear. ; Aspects of Greek and Roman Life; 342 pages; In this well-researched and coherent introduction to family life in classical Greece Mr Lacey explains the structure of the family the social and economic pressures that affected it and the complicated legal measures that were devised to regulate and protect it. Even though the family has always been a fundamental institution in Greek society this is the first study in English devoted to it. This book deals in detail with the family in the archaic and classical ages -- the great era of the city-states. It was during this period that a close and complex relationship existed between the family and the city-state. Each city-state was in fact the sum total of the households contained in it and each household resembled a miniature kingdom with its own gods and lands and the head of the house exercised almost royal powers over his children. So powerful and close-knit was the family group that it was regarded by politicians and philosophers including Plato and Aristotle as damaging to their ideals of personal detachment and public service and even as a menace to the unity of the state. Mr Lacey supports his views of family life by quoting and discussing relevant writings of the Greek philosophers and by citing contemporary literature especially the comedies. He analyzes also the valuable evidence supplied by inscriptions vase paintings sculpture terracottas and coins many of which are presented in black-and-white photographs. From ancient times until today the most pervasive force in Greek life has been the family. This study of its influence in classical Greece makes possible a better understanding of greek history literature and art. . Cornell University Press paperback

HERODOTUS AND HIS WORLD Essays from a Conference in Memory of George Forrest
Oxford University Press. Fine in Fine dust jacket. 2003. Hardcover. 0199253749 . Illuminates Herodotus and the world in which he wrote. The novel and enlightening contributions are as varied in focus and approach as the interests and backgrounds of the authors. There are detailed studies of a number of individual passages and episodes which always turn out to have wider ramifications for the understanding of Herodotus or for the history of the archaic and classical Greek world or both as well as considerations of wider themes perceptions of ethnicity and ideas of 'tradition' of historical space and about the origins of history. There is prophecy oracle-selling and resurrection. There is narrative management and the prosaics of death. Herodotean chronology is revisited. There is epigraphy. There are accounts of why Herodotus did not mention the Hanging Gardens and why he has not been taken as seriously as he should have been by military historians. There are Cleisthenes and Cleomenes there are Argos and Corinth. And of course there is Athens and its democracy. In addition to presenting a picture of Herodotean studies today the volume offers plenty to stimulate further enquiry; 400 pages . Oxford University Press hardcover

GREEK PERSONAL NAMES Their Value as Evidence
The British Academy & Oxford University Press. Very Good in Very Good- dust jacket. 2000. Hardcover. 0197262163 . Dustjacket has 1 tear to head of spine and 1 tear to bottom rear corner. Top edge of front board very lightly bumped else fine. Signed by Elaine Matthews to ffep. ; Proceedings of the British Academy 104; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 192 pages; Within the great diversity of their world the assertion of origin was essential to the ancient Greeks in defining their sense of who they were and how they distinguished themselves from neighbours and strangers. Each person's name might carry both identity and origin - 'I am' . . . inseparable from 'I come from' . . . Names have surfaced in many guises and locations - on coins and artefacts embedded within inscriptions and manuscripts - carrying with them evidence even from prehistoric and preliterate times. The Lexicon of Greek Personal Names has already identified more than 200000 individuals. The contributors to this volume draw on this resource to demonstrate the breadth of scholarly uses to which name evidence can be put. These essays narrate the stories of political and social change revealed by the incidence of personal names and cast a fascinating light upon both the natural and supernatural phenomena which inspired them. This volume offers dramatic illumination of the ways in which the ancient Greeks both created and interpreted their world through the specific language of personal names.; Signed by One Author . The British Academy & Oxford University Press hardcover

LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP IN PLATO AND ARISTOTLE
Clarendon Press. Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1989. Hardcover. 0198249640 . Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing. ; This book explores for the first time an idea common to both Plato and Aristotle: although people are separate their lives need not be; one person's life may overflow into another's so that helping someone else is a way of serving oneself. Price considers how this idea unites the philosophers' treatments of love and friendship which are otherwise very different and demonstrates that this view of love and friendship applied not only to personal relationships but also to the household and even the city-state promises to resolve the old dichotomy between egoism and altruism. ; 278 pages .

CHRONOLOGY OF THE ANCIENT WORLD
Thames and Hudson. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1980. Second Edition. Hardcover. 0500400393 . Spine is sunned. Scholar's name stamped to ffep P. Stork. ; Absolute dates of events in ancient history have been difficult to calculate because of the complex adjustments and computations involved. The methods of relative dating developed by archaeologists and of direct dating established by modern science depend upon the interpretation of historical material which is virtually inaccessible. Using dates supplied by the ancients themselves Bickerman suggests the means to convert them into units of our own dating system thus providing an invaluable reference for all students of the ancient world. ; Aspects of Greek and Roman Life; 253 pages .
