‎Brill Academic Publishers. Fine with no dust jacket. 2002. Hardcover. 9004124748 . Mnemosyne Bibliotheca Classica Batava : Supplementum; 1 x 9.7 x 6.3 Inches; 301 pages; This is a book about the law and life of Rome�in which contributors respond to John Crook's injunction to 'think like lawyers' by ranging as far as ancient Greece ancient Persia and modern Denmark to expound their themes and draw comparisons. An opening section focuses on Civil Law more or less as conventionally conceived with chapters on the peculium on municipal law at Irni in Roman Spain on advisers of Roman provincial governors and on violent crime. Roman perceptions of the physical and human worlds are the focus of a second section and comparisons between Greek Roman and modern ways of thinking about law and government come into the third section. In the final section contributors argue the history of law and life from refractions of real and imagined Rome. . Brill Academic Publishers hardcover‎

Minor rubbing to DJ. ; 131 pages; Das von Heinz Luschey 3. 12. 1910 -1.1. 1992 selbst gew�hlte Thema hat den Verfasser ein Leben lang begleitet. Doch seine Fragestellungen sind immer noch aufregend und ganz und gar nicht �berholt. Heinz Luschey sagte dazu: "Das Bildmaterial ist nicht so sehr neu es ist aber neu gesehen"; oder: ". Denn in der Bewegungsrichtung allein der Gestalten schon liegt etwas was au�er J. D. Beazley eigentlich niemand in unserer Wissenschaft gesehen hat. Wer sieht schon das Einfache" Bernhard Schweitzer der damalige Ordinarius f�r Klassische Arch�ologie in T�bingen habilitierte Heinz Luschey mit dieser Arbeit und schlo� sein Gutachten vom 22. 12. 1955 mit der Formulierung: "in summa: ein sehendes Auge und ein produktives Denken Verantwortung vor Wissenschaft und Sprache didaktische Begabung endlich die Erfahrung und die Sicherheit eines reifen Gelehrten stehen hinter der vorgelegten Arbeit. " Karl Schefold Klassischer Arch�ologe aus Basel meinte 1993 dazu: "Als hervorragender Kenner der griechischen und r�mischen aber auch der fern�stlichen und alt-orientalischen Kunst und mit seinem feinen Sinn f�r die Form des Kunstwerks hat er dieses Problem in einen weltgeschichtlichen Zusammenhang gestellt. " Und Heinz Gaube Orientalist aus T�bingen: "Nun liegt die Arbeit technisch auf den wissenschaftlich neuesten Stand gebracht vor. Ich schrieb "technisch" d. H. Die Anmerkungen denn inhaltlich ist an diesem Wurf nichts zu �ndern. Die Arbeit ist ein "Klassiker" und kann in dieser Art von niemandem wiederholt werden. " . Ernst Wasmuth hardcover‎

Konrad provides the first book-length commentary on Plutarch's Life of Sertorius the work that has shaped most modern interpretations of the man and his career. Quintus Sertorius 126-73 B. C. was a political and military leader during the period of turmoil that ended with the Roman Republic's disintegration just thirty years after his death. A major figure on the losing side in the first civil war 87-82 B. C. he went to Spain to continue the struggle against the ruling senatorial faction with the help of Roman exiles and the native population. His military skill was much admired but his increasingly despotic behavior combined with failing luck in the field eventually prompted Sertorius' assassination by his Roman staff. One of Plutarch's most austere biographies Sertoriuslacks the rich color and wealth of anecdote characteristic of his Antony or Perikles yet it is unsurpassed in its seemingly unbounded sympathy for its subject and is the most substantial source extant on Sertorius. By analyzing Plutarch's method and purpose Konrad develops a more critical and less eulogistic view of Sertorius' character and his actions during this period. The Greek text of Plutarch's biography is included in this book. . The University of North Carolina Press hardcover‎

Minor bumping to corners. ; Cambridge Classical Studies; 190 pages; Commentaries on the Hellenica Oxyrhynchia an anonymous history of events in the Greek world in the late fifth and early fourth centuries BC have usually dealt almost entirely with problems of the text. In this book Dr Bruce has written an historical commentary basing his work on both the London and Florence papyri which between them provide all the surviving fragments of the text. Dr Bruce begins with a brief description of the two papyri. He then discusses the Oxyrhynchus historian's style and method - his sources chronology bias interest in causation etc. The introduction ends with a r�sum� of the numerous theories of the author's identity Dr Bruce favours either Cratippus or an author not known to us by name at all. The main part of the commentary is arranged in the form of notes on the sections of the Greek text with occasional detailed notes on particular words or phrases. There are appendices on the Battle of Sardis and the Constitution of Boeotia; and the book concludes with a full biography. Dr Bruce's book is a complete guide available for further historical study of the Hellenica Oxyrhynchia. . Cambridge University Press hardcover‎

Book appears unread. Very light shelfwear. ; 0.63 x 9.21 x 6.14 Inches; 264 pages; This is an entirely new and original reading of 'Pearl' placing the anonymous masterpiece in the context of the Cheshire coterie that flourished at the court of Richard II during the 1390s. The brilliance of its poetic construction has long been acknowledged but here 'Pearl' is also shown to engage with the social religious and political events of the late fourteenth century. The poem's defense of infant baptism is seen as countering Lollard criticism of the sacraments its retelling of the Parable of the Vineyard as offering scriptural support to the aims of the Statute of Labourers. The poem's dazzling representation of aristocratic magnificence - jewelled crowns gem-embroidered gowns livery badges civic processions and monumental architecture - studied in this context relates to the spectacular royal culture of one of England's most ambitious monarchs. The courtly elegy offered consolation after the death of Anne of Bohemia while its vision of a royal child-bride figured in the intense national debate over the king's prospective marriage to the six-year-old Isabelle of France. Richard II's fall from power brought to an end not simply Cheshire privilege but also a poetic tradition that produced some of the finest works of English literature most notably 'Pearl' and 'Gawain and the Green Knight'. .
