Former owner's bookplate on inner cover Malcolm Todd ; Oxford Classical Monographs; 304 pages; Fear explores the cultural interaction between Rome and the various native groups found in Baetica ancient Andalusia. It examines the degree to which Rome wished to change the area how far our available evidence will allow us to see the outcome of such attempts and the varied reactions of the native populations to the Roman presence. Fear concludes that the traditional model of "Romanization and resistance" is deficient for understanding the Baetican province and argues that Roman Imperialism is best seen through a model which emphasizes "the creation of new synthetic cultural forms." .

Georg Olms Verlag. Fine. 2007. Softcover. 3487134799 . Text in italian; Spudasmata Band 115; 280 pages; Dion of Prusa is one of the most important sources for the history of literature and rhetoric in the early Roman empire. He was not only Trajan�s political advisor but also provided us with an important theoretical study on the political rhetoric of the period: the different forms of government the dialectic of monarchy and tyranny social harmony Greek loyalty to the Romans and the position of the intellectual in the 1st and 2nd centuries AD. This book examines the connections between rhetoric sophistics politics and ethics in one of Dion of Prusa�s most famous speeches. The historical background the literary context and significant aspects of the reception of Dion�s ideas and suggestions are illuminated and major modern scholarly opinions are discussed and often disproved. The author always keeps the analysis and various interpretations of the text in the central focus of a critical reading. This gives the work its interest for philologists and historians in the field of the history of ancient rhetoric and the second sophistic as well as of Graeco-Roman society in the first two centuries of our era. .

AGESILAOS AND THE CRISIS OF SPARTA
The Johns Hopkins University Press. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 1987. Hardcover. 0801835054 . Very minor shelfwear to DJ. Dustjacket is protected in mylar. ; As one of the two Spartan kings Agesilaos II presided over Sparta's greatest imperial expansion and its collapse as a major power. At his accession in 400 BC Sparta had recently defeated Athens in the Peloponnesian War and was the undisputed leader of the Aegean Greek world; at the time of his death some forty years later Sparta had been reduced to the status of a mere Peloponnesian squabbler its role indistinguishable from that of any of a number of other Greek states. "Agesilaos and the Crisis of Sparta" is an account of this critical period of Greek history focusing on a single career. Progressing both chronologically and thematically the author reveals the principal aspects of Spartan politics and society and appraises the possible causes of Sparta's preciptous decline and fall. ; 520 pages .

DIONYSOPHONTOS DIONUSOFONTOS GAMOI: MARITAL LIFE AND MAGIC IN FOURTH CENTURY PELLA
J. C. Gieben. Fine. 1998. Softcover. 9050634079 . 178 pages; This study deals with an intriguing recent find from Pella a lead tablet with a magical spell inscribed on it. The object itself is by no means uncommon in classical antiquity: it belongs to a well-known and widespread category of finds documented in most regions of the ancient world and covering a very broad period from the early 5th cent. BC to late antiquity. Besides being the first �curse tablet� discovered in Macedonia the new text from Pella is very important because of its relatively early date before the middle of the 4th century BC. It also presents the particular interest of being the first text from this region written in dialectical Greek. Furthermore it is unusual among similar documents in that it describes at some length the intention and expectations of its author and provides information on the situation from which it has arisen. .

LIBRI ANNALES PONTIFICUM MAXIMORUM The Origins of the Annalistic Tradition
University of Michigan Press. Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1999. Hardcover. 0472109154 . A couple of small tears to bottom corners of DJ else Fine. ; The Papers and Monographs of the American Academy in Rome; 368 pages; Recent years have seen a welcome growth of interest in the history of early Rome. Libri Annales Pontificum Maximorum: the Origins of the Annalistic Tradition contributes important information on this period by focusing on the earliest stages of Roman historical writing. The book is once again available with a new Introduction by the author that brings the work up to date and helps place it in its current context. This book remains the starting point for study of the pre-annalistic tradition of Roman history. When first published the volume sparked a lively debate among classicists and historians of the ancient world. Previous scholarship had often assigned the pontifical chronicle a central role not only in preserving the history of the early Republic but also in shaping the form of the annalistic tradition. But the author showed that these assumptions rested on insecure foundations; to a large extent they misrepresented the historiographic development of the annalistic tradition as we know it from above all Livy and Dionysius of Halicarnassus. Perhaps the book's most controversial contention was that the final eighty-book edition of the chronicle which previous scholars had dated to the later second century BCE is more probably a massive reworking of materials in the Augustan period. This finding will likely require a considerable revision in our understanding of the development of the annalistic tradition. In the course of making these innovative arguments the author offers extensive information about the origins of the annalistic tradition and about the early history and historiography of Rome. Bruce W. Frier is Professor of Classics and Roman Law and Henry King Ransom Professor of Law University of Michigan. He has published numerous books and articles on classical and legal topics and has won the Charles J. Goodwin Award of Merit from the American Philological Association. .
