David Elizabeth
A Book of Mediterranean Food and Other Writings
London: Folio Society 2005 Preface by Julian Barnes Decorations by John Minton & watercolours by Sophie MacCarthy. "A Book of Mediterranean Food David's first great classic was based on memories of happy years spent in France Italy the Greek Islands and Egypt. Combined here with a selection of essays from An Omelette and a Glass of Wine it reveals a passion for good food as well as a marvellous ability to evoke atmosphere and place whether it is the beautiful almond country surrounding Valencia or the pleasure of buying piping hot pissaladi�re in the markets of Marseilles. Here are market stalls piled high with aubergines tomatoes melons figs and limes; wooden barrels of glistening olives; the sheen of rain on an old terracotta oil jar; fresh dates in tortoiseshell colours and the pungent scent of fresh saffron. In the belief that producing good food should always be a 'labour of love' Elizabeth David provides a stunning array of recipes that introduce the reader to the individual flavours that characterise Mediterranean cuisine. Woven throughout are entertaining diversions exploring the origin of recipes and anecdotes from travellers and writers - among them William Beckford Henry James Norman Douglas and D. H. Lawrence - and of course Elizabeth David's own forthright opinions on the awarding of Michelin stars the delights of the white truffles of Alba and the lack of a good tomato." This finely printed edition is based on the second revised edition published by Macdonald in 1958. 265p. The slip case is missing. Previous owners name and a mark on the title page else near fine. 265p. illus. Reissue. Hardcover. Very Good. Illus. by Decorations by John Minton ; & watercolours by Sophie MacCarthy.

CORINTH. VOLUME XII: THE MINOR OBJECTS
Light pencil marginalia to a few pages Spine is somewhat discolored. Spine ends have light wear. Oversized. Scholar's name (T. J. Dunbabin) on ffep. 3 Bibliographical lines written to rear endpaper in ink. Boards have light discolored areas mostly to spine and rear board (water-staining? ). ; 148 plates at end. ; Corinth Volume XII; 366 pages; The fifth part of the Corinth volume dedicated to the Sanctuary of Demeter and Kore publishes the large-scale terracotta sculpture found in the sanctuary. Ranging in date from the late 7th through the 4th century B.C., the sculpture consists of fragments from 132 to as many as 147 statues, from half- to nearly life-size. These are, for the most part, statues of young males, both draped and nude, although females and seated infants appear as well. Several introductory chapters discuss the types represented, the findspots and possible original placement of the sculptures, and the techniques involved in their construction. This volume greatly expands our knowledge of the history of Corinth, broadening our understanding both of cult practices at the site and of the manufacture of terracotta sculpture.

COURTESANS AND FISHCAKES The Consuming Passions of Classical Athens
Minor shelfwear to book and DJ. Scholar's name to ffep (Robert Brown). ; 1.25 x 10 x 6.75 Inches; 371 pages; British historian Davidson takes us inside classical Greece's brothels, bedrooms, drinking parties and banquets in this rarefied scholarly inquiry. His aim is not merely to depict Athenians as pleasure seekers but to overturn the current notion, purveyed by Michel Foucault and others, that Athens was a "phallocratic" society permeated with an ethos of penetration and domination, a homosexual-leaning culture polarized between adult male citizens and all others: Slaves, women, boys, foreigners. He largely succeeds on all counts, bringing to convivial life a predominantly heterosexual society where classes mingled easily; cultured courtesans bedded leading figures like Pericles and Alcibiades; and wives participated fully in sexual pleasures. Drawing on ancient treatises, pamphlets, comic plays, poems and speeches, Davidson investigates the classical Greeks' indulgences, including their mania for eating fish, A luxury viewed as hedonistic, And their tolerance for booze and sex (though sex addicts were considered to have a lower capacity to resist the natural pleasures). His intriguing study serves up a banquet of arcane lore.

GREEK INSECTS
Old price sticker to front inner cover. Minor shelfwear to DJ. ; 208 pages; This authoritative study of Greek insects treats not only the obvious questions of their identity--in modern terms of species and genera--but also such topics as the etymologies (both formal and popular) of the various insect names, the folklore, religious and other signficant associations, and the differences in attitude shown toward them by the ancient and modern world. Patterned after two famous studies by D'Arcy Thompson--A Glossary of Greek Birds and A Glossary of Greek Fishes--this volume provides a meticulous survey of the topic, examining the ancient literature and the enormous secondary literature connected with it, as well as the most recent scientific findings. Like Thompson's glossaries, this work focuses primarily on evidence from literature and art, with later evidence brought in only when needed for a full understanding of the facts. Compiled by a classics scholar working with a zoologist, this glossary provides alphabetically-arranged entries on such common insects as the ant, the louse, the butterfly, the wasp, the bedbug, the cricket, and the praying mantis. The first comprehensive study on this subject, Greek Insects belongs on the bookshelf of every Greek scholar, and it will be of considerable interest to educated readers.

One Virgin Too Many
London: Century 1999 Set in Vespasian's Rome. yet another adventure involving the detecting skills of Marcus Didius Falco and Helena "A frightened child approaches Roman informer Marcus Didius Falco pleading for help. Nobody believes Gaia"s story that a relation wants to kill her - and neither does he. Beset by his own family troubles by his new responsibilities as Procurator of the Sacred Poultry and by the continuing search for a new partner he turns her away. Immediately he regrets it. Gaia has been selected as the new Vestal Virgin and when she disappears Falco is officially asked to investigate - closely watched by Titus Caesar whose new ladylove Berenice is under suspicion from scandalmongers and by his two ex-partners Petronius and Anacrites who both have personal reasons to hope he will slip up. Aelianus the resentful brother of Falco"s girlfriend Helena is also aiming to join the establishment. In the Sacred Grove of the Arval Brothers Aelianus stumbles on a gruesome corpse which then disappears. He too asks Falco for advice and as their delicate enquiries proceed among Rome"s most ancient and influential cults it becomes clear that the murder its obvious cover-up and the fate of the missing child may all be mysteriously linked. Finding Gaia is then a race against time ending in Falco"s most terrifying exploit yet. ". 1st UK Ed. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. Century hardcover
