‎THE MASKS OF MENANDER Sign and Meaning in Greek and Roman Performance‎

‎Cambridge University Press. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1994. Hardcover. 0521401356 . Publisher's remainder mark to bottom of textblock small black dot. Small tear to cloth at base of spine ~1 cm. ; 1.06 x 9.33 x 6.26 Inches; 287 pages; This book provides a detailed analysis of the conventions and techniques of performance characteristic of the Greek theatre of Menander and the subsequent Roman theatre of Plautus and Terence. Drawing on literary and archaeological sources and on scientific treatises David Wiles identifies the mask as crucial to the actor's art and shows how sophisticated the art of the mask-maker became. He also examines the other main elements which the audience learned to decode: costume voice movement etc. In order to identify features that were unique to Hellenistic theatre he contrasts Greek New Comedy with other traditions of masked comedy and shows how different Roman conventions of performance rest upon different underlying assumptions about religion marriage and class. David Wiles offers theatre historians and classicists a radical new approach to reading play texts. His book will also be useful to archaeologists seeking to understand what masks mean and how Greek and Roman theatres were used. . Cambridge University Press hardcover‎

In asking whether the early healers might have benefited their patients or only hastened their trip to the grave Dr. Majno uncovered surprising answers by testing ancient prescriptions in a modern laboratory. Illustrated with hundreds of photographs many in full color and climaxing ten years of work The Healing Hand is a spectacular recreation of man's attempts to conquer pain and disease. ; Commonwealth Fund Publications; 571 pages .

‎CHANGES IN THE ROMAN EMPIRE Essays in the Ordinary‎

‎Princeton University Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1990. Hardcover. 0691036012 . Dustjacket and book have minor shelfwear and rubbing. ; 1.25 x 9.75 x 6.75 Inches; 416 pages; Written by one of the foremost historians of the Roman Empire this collection of both new and previously published essays forms a colorful picture of daily life in the Mediterranean world between A.D. 50 and 450. Here for example the author applies statistical analysis to broad groups of people on matters ranging from justice through medicine to language. In so doing he is able to substantiate general statements about routines in ordinary people's behavior and to detect within these routines the very changes that constitute history. Such analysis also shows how this era benefits from the same historiographical approaches that have so successfully elucidated sociocultural phenomena in other periods. Drawing from statistical analysis and many other historical approaches these essays on popular mores in the Roman Empire cover such topics as language and art acculturation thought and religion sex and gender cruelty and slavery and aspects of class and power relations. The author introduces the collection with several essays on historical method as it pertains to the richness of documentation and variety to be found in the region and period chosen. .
