‎A PLAUTUS READER Selections from Eleven Plays‎

‎Bolchazy-Carducci Publishers. Fine. 2009. Softcover. 0865166943 . Latin Reader; 182 pages; The comic playscripts by Plautus-the earliest Latin texts we have-made it through the ancient world to reach ours because the moves and verbal jousting found in them have always made people laugh. Plautine comedies span a wide range of idioms extending from saucy adventures in the sex trade with Father as the fall-guy who foots all bills to the trouncing of bigmouth trooper by Ms. Hot Stuff; from the fairytale wishes come true of faraway foundlings fished up on a surprise romantic shore to the caricature gospel that re-stages the myth of the birth of the hero in true panto style gods and all. Although there is no such creature as a typical Plautus play this cannily chosen set of excerpts-ranging from the best- to least-known plays-gives a good sense of how a whole script runs from opening hush through brisk cameos and spectacular showstoppers to final bow. John Hendersons energy wit and contagious affection for Plautussnappy Latin which he calls 'Plautin' take the reader along on a whirlwind laugh-out-loud tour. His combination of commentary interpretive remarks and attention to staging and metatheatrics make this edition a perfect introduction to Plautus and an incentive for further reading. Special Features Introduction that is as lively as it is informative 616 lines of unadapted Latin text from eleven Plautus plays: Asinaria 746-809 Amphitruo 361-462 Captiui 1029-36 Casina 780-854 and 1012-18 Cistellaria 203-29 Curculio 462-86 Menaechmi 77-109 and 351-69 Poenulus 1-45 and 541-66 Pseudolus 1-2 and 394-414 Rudens 938-1044 and Truculentus 482-548 Notes at the back Map and five photos Bibliography and further reading for each play Appendix on meter Guide to pronunciation of proper names<br> Online Latin text marked for reading aloud Complete vocabulary .

Lexicon of Greek Personal Names; 246 pages; This volume is a significant contribution to the study of the ancient Greek vocabulary used to describe the local origins of individuals. It sheds much new light on ancient grammarians and other ancient writers many of them 'lost' in the sense that they survive only in quotations in later sources. At the heart of the volume is a study of the sources which lie behind an enigmatic but important treatise which survives only in epitome: the Ethnika of the grammarian Stephanus of Byzantium. This suppliment to the Lexicon of Greek Personal Names is the final work of its founding editor. . Oxford University Press hardcover‎

‎PERICLES ON STAGE Political Comedy in Aristophanes' Early Plays‎

‎University of Texas Press. Fine in Fine dust jacket. 1997. Hardcover. 0292787278 . New. Unwrapped in plastic; 255 pages; Since the eighteenth century classical scholars have generally agreed that the Greek playwright Aristophanes did not as a matter of course write "political" plays. Yet according to an anonymous Life of Aristophanes when Dionysius the tyrant of Syracuse wanted to know about the government of Athens Plato sent him a copy of Aristophanes' Clouds. In this boldly revisionist work Michael Vickers convincingly argues that in his earlier plays Aristophanes in fact commented on the day-to-day political concerns of Athenians. Vickers reads the first six of Aristophanes' eleven extant plays in a way that reveals the principal characters to be based in large part on Pericles and his ward Alcibiades. According to Vickers the plays of Aristophanes--far from being nonpolitical--actually allow us to gauge the reaction of the Athenian public to the events that followed Pericles' death in 429 B.C. to the struggle for the political succession and to the problems presented by Alcibiades' emergence as one of the most powerful figures in the state. This view of Aristophanes reaffirms the central role of allegory in his work and challenges all students of ancient Greece to rethink long-held assumptions about this important playwright. .

Very minor shelfwear to book and DJ. ; Mnemosyne Bibliotheca Classica Batava Supplementum; 255 pages; The Gorgon's Severed Head looks at three plays of Euripides one early one middle and one late in his career. Innovations in genre in the use of the traditional stories in the representation of women and of gender issues are present at every period. In all three plays characters are depicted creating themselves and each other. Chapter One on Alcestis looks at the artistry of the two main characters and is especially concerned with finding a role for Admetus the play's most serious problem. The second chapter treats the physical displacement of the myth in Euripides' version of the Electra-Orestes story. A last section approaches the layers of time and space in Phoenissae. . E. J.

‎Cambridge University Press. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1969. Hardcover. 052107620X . Former scholar's name on inner cover David Furley. Pencil marginalia by Furley on a few pages. Light discoloration to spine. ; Attempts to present a series of Stoic philosophical ideas in some detail in order to give a clearer picture of what Stoic philosophy is about and encourage the view that the Stoics were serious philosophers. ; 310 pages; Literature on the Stoa has recently concentrated on historical accounts of the development of the school and on Stoicism as a social movement. Professor Rist�s approach is to examine in detail a series of philosophical problems discussed by leading members of the Stoic school. He is not concerned with social history or with the influence of Stoicism on popular beliefs in the Ancient world but with such questions as the relation between Stoicism and the thought of Aristotle the meaning and purpose of such Stoic paradoxes as �all sins are equal� and the philosophical interrelation of Stoic physics and ethics. There are chapters on aspects of Stoic logic and on the thought of particular thinkers such as Panaetius and Posidonius but ethical problems occupy the centre of the stage. .

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.
