LATIN POETS AND ITALIAN GODS
University of Toronto Press. Near Fine in Very Good- dust jacket. 2009. Hardcover. 1442640596 . Large closed tear to back panel of DJ 8cm. Now protected in mylar sleeve. Bottom corners slightly bumped. ; The Robson Classical Lectures; 256 pages; Based on Elaine Fantham's 2004 Robson lectures Latin Poets and Italian Gods reconstructs the response of Roman poets in the late republic and Augustan age to the rural cults of central Italy. Study of Roman gods is often limited to the grand equivalents of the Olympian Greek deities such as Jupiter Mars and Juno. However real-life Italians gave a lot of their affection and loyalty to humbler gods with no Greek equivalent: local nymphs who supplied healing waters the great Tiber river and other lesser rivers the lusty garden god Priapus and more. Latin Poets and Italian Gods surveys the representation of these old country gods in poets from Plautus to Statius. Fantham offers historical and epigraphic evidence of worship offered to these colourful lesser spirits and reveals the emotional importance of local Italian deities to the sophisticated poets of the Augustan age. .

THE EMPEROR JULIAN
Weidenfeld and Nicolson. Very Good in Good dust jacket. 1975. Hardcover. 0297770292 . Corners bumped. Shelfwear to book. Dustjacket has a few small tears and chipping. ; 256 pages; Julian is called by Christians "The Apostate" because they believe he converted from Christianity to Paganism. He himself as attested to in private letters between him and the Rhetorician Libanius had Christianity forced on him as a child by his cousin Constantius II who was a zealot Christian and would have not tolerated a pagan relative but Julian had never really accepted any religion until his reading of the Homeric poems some of the most important texts for the Greek religion. After this conversion to Hellenism he devoted his life to protecting and restoring the fame and security of this more ancient tradition as well as other religious traditions such as Judaism from Christian persecution. After gaining the purple Julian started a religious reformation of the state which in his intentions was to give back its lost strength to the Roman State. He supported the restoration of the old Roman faith based on polytheism. Julian reduced the influence of Christian bishops in public offices. The lands taken by the Church were to be returned to their original owners and the bishops lost the privilege to travel for free at expenses of the State. . Weidenfeld and Nicolson hardcover

Within a few generations addressing antiquity from a non-Christian viewpoint would have been unthinkable. From his place on the edge of this shifting paradigm Lydus' writings help us to see the emergence of medieval Byzantium through Roman eyes. . Routledge hardcover

ISIS UND IHRE DIENERINNEN IN DER KUNST DER R�MISCHEN KAISERZEIT
E. J. Brill. Near Fine. 1991. Softcover. 9004093125 . Mnemosyne Bibliotheca Classica Batava Supplementum 115; 197 pages; Das Thema des Buches ist der Isiskult w�hrend der r�mischen Kaiserzeit wie er in zahleichen Darstellungen der �gyptischen G�ttin und solcher ihr angeglichener Frauen zum Ausdruck kommt. W�hrend sich dadurch zum einen diese Frauen ganz allgemein als Dienerinnen der Isis zu erkennen geben f�llt zum anderen ein besonderes Licht auf die zur Angleichung ausgew�hlten Bilder der G�ttin. Dabei handelt es sich anders als bei den meisten bekannten Isistypen um keine mythologisch erkl�rbaren Gottesbilder. Sie sind deshalb der Forschung ebenso r�tselhaft geblieben wie die entsprechend angeglichenen und oftmals auch als Priesterinnen oder Mystinnen bezeichneten Frauen. Das Buch behandelt somit zwei Problemkreise n�mlich die Stellung jener Frauen im Kult sowie die damit verbundene Frage nach Sinn und Bedeutung der f�r die Angleichung verbindlichen Isisbilder. Das vorwiegend plastische Material ist in einem Katalog mit volst�ndigem Abbildungsteil zusammengestellt. Auf dieser Basis bietet das Buch eine ikonographische und ikonologische Untersuchung des Themas. Die ausschliesslich in statuarischen Kopien �berlieferten Isisbilder werden in angemessener Weise auf Originale hin rezensiert; die vorranging sepulkralen Darstellungen der Isisdienerinnen werden sowohl in quellenkritischer als auch arch�ologischer Hinsicht interpretiert. Daneben kommen auch religionsgeschichtliche Probleme zum Tragen. Ein l�ngeres Exkurs am Ende des Buches ist der Frage nach der sozialen Stellung der Isisdienerinnen gewidmet. . E. J. Brill paperback
