Cloutier Marissa & Adamson Eve
The Mediterranean Diet
New York: Avon / HarperCollins 2004 Readers of books by popular health writers such as Dr. Andrew Weil and others will recognize the phrase Mediterranean diet which is recommended repeatedly because of its heart-healthy qualities. Just what IS a Mediterranean diet is the question Marissa Cloutier and Eve Adamson answer in this reasoned and informative guide. The authors provide an overview of the diet using a helpful question-and-answer format followed by a breakdown by food item along with information on vitamins antioxidants and the benefits and sources of Omega-3. They have also designed a Mediterranean diet food pyramid that compares to the USDA and AHA pyramids. Their recipes are easy to follow and to prepare and the cuisine adjusts easily to a single person as well as to a family. Foods can be introduced in a variety of ways at any meal: if you realize that lunch is your undoing you can change that unhealthy habit by simply following one or two of the authors's suggestions. The authors present what they stress are merely guidelines in a highly supportive manner and convince us that the Mediterranean way is both a diet and a lifestyle that is reachable for American families. Re-issue. Pbk. As New. Avon / HarperCollins paperback

CODEX SINAITICUS.
Codex Sinaiticus. A Facsimile.
2 Vols., folio (450 x 360 mm), introduction volume: 31pp., orig. printed wrappers, facimile volume: 822 pages of coloured facsimiles, orig. cloth, spine slightly creased, slip-case, the facsimile is an enormous and extremely heavy book. Codex Sinaiticus is one of the world's most remarkable books. Written in Greek in the fourth century, it is the oldest surviving complete New Testament, and one of the two oldest manuscripts of the whole Bible. No other early manuscript of the Christian Bible has been so extensively corrected, and the significance of the Codex Sinaiticus for the reconstruction of the Christian Bible's original text, the history of the Bible and the history of western book making is immense. This magnificent printed facsimile reunites the text, now divided between the British Library, the National Library of Russia, St Catherine's Monastery, Mt Sinai and Leipzig University Library.

ROMAN SATIRE
Scholar's bookplate to front pastedown (G. P. Goold). Minor shelfwear to book. DJ has minor edgewear with creasing. ; Alternate ISBN: 0064712516; 289 pages; This study appraises the work of all the Roman satirists, from the 2nd century BC, to the end of the reign of Hadrian in AD 138. The satirists' work is shown to reflect the constantly changing society in which they lived, and its topics range from the morally earnest to the bawdy. Certain themes are examined which are common to some degree to all the satirists -- autobiographical revelation, personal invective, political and ethical judgements and literary criticism. The book provides an exposition of the tradition of verse satire from Lucilius through Horace and Persius to Juvenal, with an assessment of the structure and distinctive literary quality of each satire. It discusses satire in the Menippean tradition, a composite form of prose and verse which was used first by Varro, then by Petronius and by Seneca in his "Apocolocyntosis", a comical and malicious satire on the deification of the emperor Claudius.

THE ALEXANDER MOSAIC Stories of Victory and Defeat
Spine slant. Dustjacket spine is sunned. Shelfwear to DJ. Creasing to DJ front flap. DJ has 1 small tear. ; Cambridge Studies in Classical Art and Iconography; 302 pages; The Alexander Mosaic: Stories of Victory and Defeat focuses on one of the richest, most complex and visually stunning monuments of classical antiquity. Contributing to a vast tradition of scholarship, which dates back to the discovery of the Mosaic in 1831, Cohen here engages with, but departs from, a core of positivist assumptions that characterize this body of literature. In this study, she examines the Mosaic as it may have functioned in two different contexts, first as a Greek painting of the fourth century B.C., and then as a Roman mosaic of ca. 100 B.C.

THE DISTAFF SIDE Representing the Female in Homer's Odyssey
Jenifer Neil's copy with a large note to titlepage in red marker asking for 25 offprints of her contribution. Titlepage is misaligned (by publisher? ) with overhang to textblock. ; Female Characters play various roles in the Odyssey: patron goddess (Athena) , seductress (Kirke, the Sirens, Nausikaa) , carnivorous monster (Skylla) , maid servant (Eurykleia) , and faithful wife (Penelope). Adopting an interdisciplinary approach, this study examines these different femalerepresentations and their significance within the context of the poem and Greek culture. A central theme of the book is the visualization of the Odyssey's female characters by ancient artists, and several essays discuss the visual and iconographic implications of Odysseus' female encounters asdepicted in Greek, Etruscan, and Roman art. The distinguished contributors--from the fields of classical studies, comparative literature, art history, and archaeology--are A. J. Graham, Seth L. Schein, Diana Buitron-Oliver, Beth Cohen, Sheila Murnaghan, Lillian Eileen Doherty, Helene P. Foley, FromaI. Zeitlin, H. A. Shapiro, Richard Brilliant, Jenifer Neils, and Christine Mitchell Havelock.

LAW, SEXUALITY, AND SOCIETY The Enforcement of Morals in Classical Athens
Underlining in pencil to a few pages. Minor shelfwear. ; Centering on the examination of the social and legal context of adultery, homosexuality, impiety, and the public-private dichotomy in Athenian society, this book attempts to examine the problems of social control and the regulation of sexuality in a way that will be of interest to a broad readership. It uses a comparative approach to show how the examination of such issues can deepen our understanding of classical Athens, particularly in regard to the role of law in society. Further, it argues that this historical investigation can, in turn, enrich our general appreciation of the relation of social and legal norms, and the roles they play in regulating complex social practices such as those associated with sexuality, morals, and the family. This illuminating book develops a view of classical Athenian society that emphasizes the study of social control as the dynamic interplay of legal and social norms within the context of ideology and practice. ; 0.87 x 9.33 x 6.22 Inches; 271 pages
