CORINTH. VOLUME XII: THE MINOR OBJECTS
Light pencil marginalia to a few pages Spine is somewhat discolored. Spine ends have light wear. Oversized. Scholar's name (T. J. Dunbabin) on ffep. 3 Bibliographical lines written to rear endpaper in ink. Boards have light discolored areas mostly to spine and rear board (water-staining? ). ; 148 plates at end. ; Corinth Volume XII; 366 pages; The fifth part of the Corinth volume dedicated to the Sanctuary of Demeter and Kore publishes the large-scale terracotta sculpture found in the sanctuary. Ranging in date from the late 7th through the 4th century B.C., the sculpture consists of fragments from 132 to as many as 147 statues, from half- to nearly life-size. These are, for the most part, statues of young males, both draped and nude, although females and seated infants appear as well. Several introductory chapters discuss the types represented, the findspots and possible original placement of the sculptures, and the techniques involved in their construction. This volume greatly expands our knowledge of the history of Corinth, broadening our understanding both of cult practices at the site and of the manufacture of terracotta sculpture.

COURTESANS AND FISHCAKES The Consuming Passions of Classical Athens
Minor shelfwear to book and DJ. Scholar's name to ffep (Robert Brown). ; 1.25 x 10 x 6.75 Inches; 371 pages; British historian Davidson takes us inside classical Greece's brothels, bedrooms, drinking parties and banquets in this rarefied scholarly inquiry. His aim is not merely to depict Athenians as pleasure seekers but to overturn the current notion, purveyed by Michel Foucault and others, that Athens was a "phallocratic" society permeated with an ethos of penetration and domination, a homosexual-leaning culture polarized between adult male citizens and all others: Slaves, women, boys, foreigners. He largely succeeds on all counts, bringing to convivial life a predominantly heterosexual society where classes mingled easily; cultured courtesans bedded leading figures like Pericles and Alcibiades; and wives participated fully in sexual pleasures. Drawing on ancient treatises, pamphlets, comic plays, poems and speeches, Davidson investigates the classical Greeks' indulgences, including their mania for eating fish, A luxury viewed as hedonistic, And their tolerance for booze and sex (though sex addicts were considered to have a lower capacity to resist the natural pleasures). His intriguing study serves up a banquet of arcane lore.

GREEK INSECTS
Old price sticker to front inner cover. Minor shelfwear to DJ. ; 208 pages; This authoritative study of Greek insects treats not only the obvious questions of their identity--in modern terms of species and genera--but also such topics as the etymologies (both formal and popular) of the various insect names, the folklore, religious and other signficant associations, and the differences in attitude shown toward them by the ancient and modern world. Patterned after two famous studies by D'Arcy Thompson--A Glossary of Greek Birds and A Glossary of Greek Fishes--this volume provides a meticulous survey of the topic, examining the ancient literature and the enormous secondary literature connected with it, as well as the most recent scientific findings. Like Thompson's glossaries, this work focuses primarily on evidence from literature and art, with later evidence brought in only when needed for a full understanding of the facts. Compiled by a classics scholar working with a zoologist, this glossary provides alphabetically-arranged entries on such common insects as the ant, the louse, the butterfly, the wasp, the bedbug, the cricket, and the praying mantis. The first comprehensive study on this subject, Greek Insects belongs on the bookshelf of every Greek scholar, and it will be of considerable interest to educated readers.

Tomos distribute [17 Volumes]
Parisiis [Paris], Apud Ioannem Billaine, Simeonem Piget & Frederic Leonard 1654 Complete series of 17 volumes bound in 12 physical volumes, together ca. 11.324pp., in folio (38x26cm.), with engraved vignet on title pages, uniform contemporary full-vellum bindings (bit soiled, all bindings are intact and in good condition except for a tear on upper side of spine of volume 9, handwritten title on spines, raised bands, blind-tooled decorations on both covers, with 2 intact brass clasps for each volume), text printed in two columns, handwritten ex-libris on blanco leaf Ex Libris Rnd Ingolij prior. d.g. momento mori, .., Volume 17 contains the indices and errata, containing texts in Latin and in Greek, text and interior are clean and bright except for the following: volumes 1-2 have an old large waterstain on left side of the pages and volumes 9 to 15 contain an old waterstain on the lower right corner of the pages (these stains do not affect the reading of the text though), [This work is a monumental collection of early Christian writings compiled by the French theologian Marguerin de La Bigne (1546-1597). In 1575, he published his Sacra Bibliotheca Sanctorum Patrum in 8 volumes, gathering the works of ca. 200 early church writers, many of which were printed for the first time. It was re-edited, with the same title, in 1589 (2nd ed.) and 1610 (3r ed.). Subsequently it was re-edited with the title "(Magna) Bibliotheca Veterum Patrum.." in Cologne (1618-1622 in 14 vols.) and in Paris in 1624 (11 vols.) and 1644 (17 vols). Our 1654-edition is a re-edition of the Paris-1644-edition in 17 volumes. De La Bignes work was a strategic reponse to the Protestant Reformation, aiming to demonstrate that the Catholic doctrine was firmly rooted in the writings of the early Church Fathers. By providing authorized versions of texts and by providing such a large collection of patristic texts which previously existed only as manuscripts and/or separate works de La Bigne is considered to be the founder of modern patrology and precursor of the 19th cy.
