THE ARGONAUTICA OF APOLLONIUS Literary Studies
Cambridge University Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1993. Hardcover. 0521413729 . Minor Foxing/dustsoiling to top of textblock. Scholar's bookplate to inner cover G. P. Goold. Minor edgewear along lower edge of DJ. ; 216 pages; In recent years the subtlety and complexity of Apollonius' Argonautica have been better appreciated but in Dr Hunter's view the purposes and aesthetic of the epic are still not readily understood and much basic analysis remains to be done. The present book seeks to offer some of that analysis and to place the Argonautica within its social and intellectual context. A series of studies deal with notions of heroism; with eros and the suffering of Medea; the role of the divine; poetic voice and literary self-consciousness; and the Ptolemaic context of the poem. A pervasive theme of the book is Apollonius' creative engagement with Homer and a final chapter sketches out an approach to Virgil's use of Apollonius in the Aeneid. The Argonautica emerges as a brilliant and original experiment. This book is the only advanced study of the Argonautica currently available. All Greek is translated. .

Hutton Ronald
Streghe. Una storia di terrore dall'antichità ai giorni nostri
br. Streghe che cavalcano lupi e iene, cortei notturni di morti senza riposo, uomini trasformati in animali, formule magiche in grado di controllare spiriti e divinità: ogni popolo e ogni cultura del mondo, dall'alba dei tempi fino a oggi, ha creduto nell'esistenza di individui capaci di nuocere agli altri attraverso poteri magici; personaggi che incutono paura o provocano repulsione, dai quali è necessario difendersi, le cui caratteristiche vanno a formare la sfaccettata figura della strega. Dall'Africa al Baltico, dall'antica Grecia alle Americhe, le streghe hanno tratti sorprendentemente simili: agiscono di notte, causano malattie e morte a distanza, sono particolarmente pericolose per i bambini, costituiscono una minaccia per l'ordine sociale. Il mondo antico teme e disprezza chi pratica la stregoneria perché considera i suoi poteri un tentativo di appropriarsi di prerogative divine, e nella Roma imperiale la magia è combattuta ferocemente in nome della religione ufficiale. Altre culture oppongono alla stregoneria figure specifiche dotate a loro volta di poteri straordinari, come esorcisti specializzati in Africa, i praticanti delle tradizioni sciamaniche in Siberia ed Europa settentrionale o i benandanti friulani. Nell'Europa continentale del Medioevo streghe e guaritori dai poteri innati convivono con maghi eruditi eredi di una tradizione di magia rituale che ha origine nell'antico Egitto. A partire dalla fine del XIV secolo la cultura cristiana produce lo stereotipo della strega diabolica, schierata con le forze del male nell'eterna battaglia contro la Chiesa, che è all'origine delle persecuzioni dell'età moderna. Dappertutto e in ogni tempo le persone etichettate come streghe sono il capro espiatorio di tensioni e invidie all'interno delle comunità. Ronald Hutton, studioso di magia e paganesimo, seguendo le orme di Carlo Ginzburg e Wolfgang Behringer esamina la credenza nelle streghe da ogni angolazione e in prospettiva globale, attraverso epoche e continenti, a caccia dei nessi tra le tradizioni folkloriche di svariati popoli e società. "Streghe" è una discesa vertiginosa nelle più oscure e antiche fantasie dell'umanità, che testimonia come la nostra fascinazione per la paura e l'ignoto non abbia confini di spazio e di tempo.
