LYSIMACHUS A Study in Early Hellenistic Kingship
Routledge. Very Good in Near Fine dust jacket. 1992. Hardcover. 0415070619 . Very light bumping to corners of book. Else fine. DJ has very light shelfwear. ; 0.94 x 8.66 x 5.59 Inches; 304 pages; Among Alexander's successors Lysimachus is the forgotten man; when he is recalled it is usually as brutal oppressor of the Greeks or conversely as a mediocre little man spurred into action only late in life by a domineering woman. As the first full-length study of Lysimachus in the English language this book aims to reassess Lysimachus' achievements which although ephemeral foreshadowed the growth of the Pergamene and Byzantine empires. Helen Lund sets Lysimachus' actions against the background of the early Hellenistic world marked by extreme political instability and constant warfare but also by great developments in city building portraiture and numismatics. Lysimachus' practice in warfare kingship and government is compared and contrasted with that of his contemporaries his predecessors and his successors in order to set his achievements in the context of a continuum of imperial rule in Asia Minor. The evidence for Lysimachus's rule is set in its literary political and social context. Covering Lysimachus's rise from governor of the obscure satrapy of Thrace to ruler of a vast Hellespont-centered kingdom this book analyzes his skills as warrior and diplomat and examines the factors which motivated him at each stage of his career. Helen Lund discusses images of Lysimachus in literature his contribution to early Hellenistic kingship ritual and royal propaganda offering a completely fresh approach to the dynastic struggle which ended his career. .

The Golden Mean
Toronto: Random House Canada 2009 On the orders of his boyhood friend now King Philip of Macedon Aristotle postpones his dreams of succeeding Plato as leader of the Academy in Athens and reluctantly arrives in the Macedonian capital of Pella to tutor the kings adolescent sons. An early illness has left one son with the intellect of a child; the other is destined for greatness but struggles between a keen mind that craves instruction and the pressures of a society that demands his prowess as a soldier. Initially Aristotle hopes for a short stay in what he considers the brutal backwater of his childhood. But as a man of relentless curiosity and reason Aristotle warms to the challenge of instructing his young charges particularly Alexander in whom he recognizes a kindred spirit an engaged questioning mind coupled with a unique sense of position and destiny. Aristotle struggles to match his ideas against the warrior culture that is Alexanders birthright. He feels that teaching this startling charming sometimes horrifying boy is a desperate necessity. And that what the boy thrown before his time onto his fathers battlefields needs most is to learn the golden mean that elusive balance between extremes that Aristotle hopes will mitigate the boys will to conquer. Aristotle struggles to inspire balance in Alexander and he finds he must also play a cat-and-mouse game of power and influence with Philip in order to manage his own ambitions. As Alexanders position as Philips heir strengthens and his victories on the battlefield mount Aristotles attempts to instruct him are honoured but increasingly unheeded. And despite several troubling incidents on the field of battle Alexander remains steadfast in his desire to further the reach of his empire to all known and unknown corners of the world rendering the intellectual pursuits Aristotle offers increasingly irrelevant. Exploring this fabled time and place Annabel Lyon tells her story in the earthy frank and perceptive voice of Aristotle himself. With sensual and muscular prose she explores how Aristotles genius touched the boy who would conquer the known world. And she reveals how we still live with the ghosts of both men. Dj has .

Lyon Annbel
The Golden Mean
Toronto: Vintage Canada 2009 A bold and captivating new novel of ancient Greece from the celebrated award-winning author of The Golden Mean. Pythias is her father's daughter with eyes his exact shade of unlovely intelligent grey. A slave to his own curiosity and intellect Aristotle has never been able to resist wit in another--even in a girl child who should be content with the kitchen the loom and a life dictated by the womb. And oh his little Pytho is smart able to best his own students in debate and match wits with a roomful of Athenian philosophers. Is she a freak or a harbinger of what women can really be Pythias must suffer that argument but she is also mostly secure in her father's regard. But then Alexander dies a thousand miles from Athens and sentiment turns against anyone associated with him most especially his famous Macedonian-born teacher. Aristotle and his family are forced to flee to Chalcis a garrison town. Ailing mourning and broken in spirit Aristotle soon dies. And his orphaned daughter only 16 finds out that the world is a place of superstition not logic and that a girl can be played upon by gods and goddesses as much as by grown men and women. To safely journey to a place in which she can be everything she truly is Aristotle's daughter will need every ounce of wit she possesses but also grace and the capacity to love. 1st Pbk Ed.

Du monument de Lysicrates à Athènes.
Dessin aquarellé sur soie collée sur un carton (880x425 mm) ; détails d’une colonne corinthienne, avec le socle, la partie supérieure de la colonne avec le chapiteau qui supporte les rinceaux ; en réalité, le monument est de forme circulaire, avec trois colonnes qui supportent un plafond puis des rinceaux sculptés qui font une ceinture et ensuite un toit en chapeau qui n’apparait pas ici. Probable travail de la fin du XIXe siècle à l’époque où la France a pu retrouver la propriété de l’édifice. Quelques plis et petits trous de fixation, sinon beau document très décoratif.
