‎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. .

‎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. .

‎The Classical Press of Wales. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 2005. Hardcover. 0954384598 . Minor shelfwear to DJ. ; Author's Gift inscription on ffep. ; 230 pages; Plato's Crito examines a single moral decision whether Socrates ought to escape from his death-cell. Stokes's book discusses Socrates' arguments against Crito's offer of escape. It construes Socrates' questions as genuine questions which clarify and undermine Critos positions. Stokes's approach avoids the "documentary fallacy"; it shows how Plato catered for both the novice and the experienced reader of his published works. This book offers a fresh account of Socrates' whole strategy. It demonstrates both the shakiness of Socrates' persuasion of the un-philosophical Crito to engage in dialectic and the coherence of his substantive confutation. Plato's reasoning emerges from Stokes's study with more credit than many have given it.; Signed by Author . The Classical Press of Wales hardcover‎

The excavator's suggestion that the tomb's occupant was probably Philip son of Amyntas king of the Macedonians and Captain General of the united Greeks created an understandable sensation and aroused world-wide interest in this extraordinary personality: father of Alexander the Great one of the greatest Macedonian kings and also one of the most important political figures of antiquity. In response to this interest nine scholars all eminent specialists in the history of 4th century Greece describe the tumultuous career of Philip re-evaluate his personality and re-examine his political achievements in the light of the recent discoveries.
