AUGUSTUS
Book is fine. Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing. Former owner's name on ffep. Slight damage to upper edge of DJ. ; Roman Imperial Biographies; 0.95 x 9.43 x 6.38 Inches; 271 pages; Augustus, the heir to Julius Caesar, was the guiding light in the transformation of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire. In this biography, Pat Southern traces the life and works of the emperor chronologically, presenting idealogy and events as they occurred from Augustus' point of view, including his transition from heir and successor of Julius Caesar to head of the new Principate and his development of the Roman Empire. Augustus did not have a master plan of politics and legislation, but instead, he had to wait and occasionally change course before he settled on a version of government that the Senate and people found acceptable. While there have been many books covering the political, social, and aesthetic culture of the Augustan Age, this is the first book to present the life of Augustus, the man.

JULIUS CAESAR
DJ is in mylar. ; This new study of Julius Caesar's life and achievements follows the author's widely acclaimed books on Mark Anthony and Cleopatra, and completes her trilogy on the Late Republic. As Pat Southern makes clear, although we know what Caesar did, we do not really know who he was. Certain features stand out but do not make up the whole man - his staggering energy, the ruthlessness and determination to achieve what he wanted, the loyalty that he inspired in some people and the extreme hatred in others. He became close to being defeated in battle, but never lost a war. He caused the deaths of many, but did not proscribe thousands like Marius and Sulla before him and Anthony and Octavian after him. His aim was to improve, augment and streamline the administration of Rome and the provinces. To do that he needed supreme power, and in achieving it he formed the bridge between the Roman Republic and the Roman Empire. ; 0.61 x 9.48 x 6.34 Inches; 160 pages

THE CLASSICAL LEGACY IN RENAISSANCE POETRY
Light bump to 1 corner. Scholar's name to ffep (Robert Brown). DJ has light creasing and shelfwear. ; The formative influence of the Graeco-Roman classics was fundamental to the creation of literary culture in the Renaissance.

Key Features: Includes detailed analysis of a wide variety of poems from Wyatt to Dryden. Each chapter focuses on one of the major genres: epic, drama, lyric, pastoral and Georgic, Ovidian genres (the epyllion, the love elegy and the heroic epistle) , and satire. Presents the classics in Renaissance translations -wherever possible. Shows Renaissance perspectives through translations and through judgements made by Renaissance commentators, critics and the poets themselves. Introduces broader themes such as the dominating influence of Latin, the difficulty of Greek, the reception of classical texts in a prevailing Christian. Culture, the theory and practice on imitation and the rules of art. Readership: Students of English studying the Renaissance and the 17th Century and classical students interested in the classical tradition. ; Longman Medieval and Renaissance Library; 320 pages

Spann, Philip O.
QUINTUS SERTORIUS AND THE LEGACY OF SULLA
Former owner's bookplate to ffep. Faint rounding to upper corners. Minor creasing to DJ. ; When people think of the great generals of the Late Roman Republic, most think of Pompey The Great and Julius Caesar but there were other more obscure men who were just as great in their military prowess such as Lucullus. Another one of those men was Quintus Sertorius, the last Marian general who successfully repelled every commander sent against him in Spain for almost 12 years. Phillip Spann does a great job at bringing this facinating character out of obscurity: recounting his exploits and exploring what his true motives may have been. ; 239 pages

.In this second edition of his acclaimed study of Mount Athos (for which he was awarded the 2002 Criticos Prize) the author takes the opportunity to revise and update his text and also to add a completely new chapter documenting the changes that have occurred in the twelve years since its first publication.

Not for the first time, in a world beset by political upheaval and economic turmoil, the Mountain stands as a symbol of continuity and stability, a spiritual powerhouse offering refreshment to all who turn to it.This is a history of Mount Athos from pagan antiquity to the present day.Second revised edition originally published:2002 Yale University Press.288 p. illus [some col.] Book

It looks at its prime characteristics, including mobility, protection, armament, training, leadership, flexibility, and motivation. Until now, it was generally assumed that ancient Greek cavalry was subordinated to the infantry because it was less effective in battle. This book challenges this assumption, analyzing the position of Greek cavalry, and especially the Athenian arm, not only in the battlefield but in society as a whole.
