‎INFLUENCES ON PERIPATETIC RHETORIC Essays in Honor of William W. Fortenbaugh‎

‎Unwrapped in Plastic. ; Philosophia Antiqua; 0.92 x 9.55 x 7.11 Inches; 512 pages; There has recently been a great deal of scholarship on the origins of rhetoric, as well as on important 4th-century figures, such as Isocrates and Alcidamas. This volumes focuses particularly on the generation before Aristotle wrote his Rhetoric, the central text of ancient Greek rhetorical theory. Individual papers concentrate on different aspects of the Peripatetics' writings, both of Aristotle and Theophrastus, their thoughts on character, emotion, logos, style, and metaphor, the influences of dramatic writings, the relationship with Plato and with the Rhetorica ad Alexandrum, and the historical contexts. Some papers offer close readings of individual passages, while others tease out information based on fragmentary references. All of the papers offer original insights based on a thorough knowledge of the original texts.‎

‎PLAGUE AND THE ATHENIAN IMAGINATION Drama History and the Cult of Asclepius‎

‎Cambridge University Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 2008. Hardcover. 0521873452 . 224 pages; The great plague of Athens that began in 430 BCE had an enormous effect on the imagination of its literary artists and on the social imagination of the city as a whole. In this book Professor Mitchell-Boyask studies the impact of the plague on Athenian tragedy early in the 420s and argues for a significant relationship between drama and the development of the cult of the healing god Asclepius in the next decade during a period of war and increasing civic strife. The Athenian decision to locate their temple for Asclepius adjacent to the Theater of Dionysus arose from deeper associations between drama healing and the polis that were engaged actively by the crisis of the plague. The book also considers the representation of the plague in Thucydides' History as well as the metaphors generated by that representation which recur later in the same work. .

‎Modrzejewski Mélèze Joseph‎

‎The Jews of Egypt from Rameses II to Emperor Hadrian‎

‎8vo large Paperback. 279pp. Hellenistic Egypt was the setting for perhaps the first Jewish Golden Age, a time "golden" in Jewish memory as an era of vibrant cultural interaction between the Jews and their gentile hosts. This is the story of the adventures and misadventures of the people of Israel in the land of Egypt the years shrouded in the mists of biblical history under the Pharaohs; the strange intermezzo of the Jewish mercenary detachment on the island of Elephantine on the upper Nile; the apogee of Jewish culture under Ptolemies; and finally, the Jewish community's rapid decline and catastrophic disappearance under Roman rule. Joseph Mélèze Modrzejewski uses scientific analysis to illuminate the reality underlying our image of the past. The biblical accounts and Jewish and pagan literary texts are juxtaposed with discoveries of a century of archaeological and papyrological research that has unearthed the edicts of emperors as well as the humble correspondence of common people. In a tantalizing epilogue, Modrzejewski probes a turning point in Western civilization: the brief but crucial episode when budding Christianity and the Alexandrian Jews parted company.‎

‎J�dische Orte in Thessaloniki Ein historischer Rundgang / Jewish Sites in Thessaloniki Brief History and Guide IN GERMAN‎

‎Athens: Lycabettus Press 2009 New - This is the German language editoin of this book and it will be will be sent to you direct from the publisher in Greece "Thessaloniki has long been considered Greece's foremost multi-cultural city because for many centuries its history has been marked by the peaceful co-existence of Christians Muslims and Jews. Between 1492 in fact and 1912 the Jewish community was the largest of all ethnic communities living here. This thriving community set the tone of Ottoman Thessaloniki making it known as the most famous Jewish city in the world widely referred to as the Jerusalem of the Balkans. Visitors now coming for the first time to Thessaloniki encounter a basically Byzantine city because historical events such as the devastating fire that destroyed most of the Jewish monuments in 1917 and the annihilation of the Jewish community during the German occupation erased the city's Jewish character. Reconstruction after the end of World War II which reached its peak in the 1960s made the few remaining traces of the two thousand year Jewish presence in the Macedonian capital even less evident. This informative small book provides a clear image of the community's long vibrant history; has short biographies of a few of the community's leading members; and describes with pictures the major remaining buildings members of the community constructed. It enables foreign and local visitors to discover even in part the surviving traces of the Jewish and multi-cultural nature of Thessaloniki."
