Ferrari G. R. F.
CITY AND SOUL IN PLATO'S REPUBLIC
Academia. Fine with no dust jacket. 2003. Hardcover. 3896651706 . Lecturae Platonis 2; 130 pages; Tracing a central theme of Plato's Republic G. R. F. Ferrari reconsiders in this study the nature and purpose of the comparison between the structure of society and that of the individual soul. In four chapters Ferrari examines the personalities and social status of the brothers Glaucon and Adeimantus Plato's notion of justice coherence in Plato's description of the decline of states and the tyrant and the philosopher king - a pair who in their different ways break with the terms of the city-soul analogy. In addition to acknowledging familiar themes in the interpretation of the Republic - the sincerity of its utopianism the justice of the philosopher's return to the Cave - Ferrari provocatively engages secondary literature by Leo Strauss Bernard Williams and Jonathan Lear. With admirable clarity and insight Ferrari conveys the relation between the city and the soul and the choice between tyranny and philosophy. . Academia hardcover

PLATO'S LAWS AND ITS HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE Selected Papers of the I International Congress on Ancient Thought Salamanca 1998
Academia. Near Fine with no dust jacket. 2001. Hardcover. 3896651153 . Very minor shelfwear else fine. Gift inscription to classics scholar on ffep: "with best wishes to my friend and colleague Christopher Rowe. Madrid. 23/2/01" ; 351 pages; Of all of Plato's dialogues the Laws was the most related to the social and political circumstances of the time and was more influential as theoretical writing on the politics of every subsequent epoch than his other major work on the subject the Republic. For modern democracy some of the theoretical principles that were exposed for the first time in the Laws are fundamental: the rule of law the check and balance of power etc. The understanding of the largest work written by Plato has substantially improved in the last decades thanks to increasing research. This selection from the papers tries to offer a panoramic vision of the work which is being done at present in the main fields by well known scholars like T. J. Saunders L. Brisson Kl. Sch�psdau A. Neschke Chr. Bobonich Sl. Dusanic and others. The first set of contributions is related to the new notion of law which Plato shapes in the Laws and its connection to the dialogue as genre. The reader will also find a set of papers devoted to the relationship between virtue and state the nature of the state and the metaphysics. The section devoted to the specific organisation of the Magnesian State offers papers that investigate the Magnesian economy in its modern sense the nocturnal council the laws about sexuality and the position of the slaves. The section devoted to the relationship of the Laws to its historical context contains contributions which try to explain the impact of the ideological and historical situation on the work and its possible influence on the political circumstances of the time. Two papers analyse the influences of the Laws on the Neoplatonic philosophy and in John Locke. Finally the textual tradition of the dialogue is considered. . Academia hardcover

Chaplin Jane D.
LIVY'S EXEMPLARY HISTORY
Oxford University Press. Fine in Fine dust jacket. 2001. Hardcover. 0198152744 . 256 pages; The idea that it is possible to learn from history is fascinating but also complex. What exactly can you learn from the past Does it repeat itself If it does how can you prevent repetition of evil and ensure repetition of good Livy's History of Rome is all about people learning or failing to learn from the past so in many ways his work is an extended exploration of this problem. In this book Dr Chaplin starts from Livy's programmatic claim that history offers examples of good and bad conduct. Where previous studies have focused on the meaning of exemplary episodes and characters in isolation this treatment traces the way historical figures try to interpret the past to their advantage. In doing so the book demonstrates Livy's awareness of the shifting relevance of history and argues that a narrative organized around exempla allowed Livy poised between the collapse of the Republic and the foundation of the Empire to make the Romans' past meaningful for their future. .

Garani Myrto
EMPEDOCLES REDIVIVUS Poetry and Analogy in Lucretius
Routledge. Fine with no dust jacket. 2007. Hardcover. 0415988497 . Studies in Classics; 324 pages; Despite the general scholarly consensus about Lucretius' debt to Empedocles as the father of the genre of cosmological didactic epic there is a major disagreement regarding Lucretius' applause for his Presocratic predecessor's praeclara reperta DRN 1.732. In the present study Garani suggests that by praising Empedocles' discoveries Lucretius points to his predecessor's epistemological methods of inquiry concerning the unseen methods upon which he himself draws extensively and creatively enhances. In this way he successfully penetrates into the invisible natural world deciphers its secrets and thus liberates his pupil from superstitious fears about death and physical phenomena. To justify this proposition Garani undertakes a systematic analysis of Lucretius' integration of Empedocles' methods of creating analogies in the form of literary devices -- personifications similes and metaphors -- and demonstrates that his intertextual engagement with Empedocles' philosophical poem is direct and intensive at both the poetic and the philosophical levels. .

Mitchell Boyask Robin
PLAGUE AND THE ATHENIAN IMAGINATION Drama History and the Cult of Asclepius
Cambridge University Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 2008. Hardcover. 0521873452 . 224 pages; The great plague of Athens that began in 430 BCE had an enormous effect on the imagination of its literary artists and on the social imagination of the city as a whole. In this book Professor Mitchell-Boyask studies the impact of the plague on Athenian tragedy early in the 420s and argues for a significant relationship between drama and the development of the cult of the healing god Asclepius in the next decade during a period of war and increasing civic strife. The Athenian decision to locate their temple for Asclepius adjacent to the Theater of Dionysus arose from deeper associations between drama healing and the polis that were engaged actively by the crisis of the plague. The book also considers the representation of the plague in Thucydides' History as well as the metaphors generated by that representation which recur later in the same work. .
