‎CYRIACUS OF ANCONA AND ATHENS‎

‎Pages uncut. Very light shelfwear. Else fine. ; Cyriac, or Ciriaco de' Pizzecolli (1391-1452) , was a merchant and diplomat from Ancona, a self-taught humanist and antiquarian. For many of the antiquities he described, and for most of the thousand Greek and Latin inscriptions he copied on voyages in Italy, Greece, the Mediterranean islands, and Asia Minor, his is the only surviving record. Bodnar gives this account of his name (page xx, n.1) : "Called Cyriacus in Latin, German, and sometimes in English; Cyriaque in French; and Ciriaco de' Pizzecolli in Italian. He usually signed himself as Kyriacus Anconitanus de Picenicollibus (abbreviated to K. A. P. ) or, occasionally in his later years, as Kuriakos ho ex Ankônos.

‎TEXTOS FRAGMENTARIOS DEL TEATRO GRIEGO ANTIGUO Problemas, Estudios Y Nuevas Perspectivas‎

‎Very light shelfwear else fine. ; La presente obra miscelànea reùne estudios y nuevas perspectivas de investigaciòn sobre textos fragmentarios del teatro griego. Los autores abordan cuestiones relativas a los ecos paròdicos euripideos en las comedias de Aristòfanes (G. Mastromarco, F. Silva) ; discuten problemas de composiciòn o de interpretaciòn de tragedias fragmentarias , como el Pirìtoo de Critias (A. Melero) , la trilogìa esquilea dedicata a Aquiles (P. Totaro) o la Hipsìpila de Eurìpides (J. L. Lòpez Cruces) ; reflexionan sobre cuestiones textuales del Reso (M. Labiano) ; analizan aspectos estilìsticos como la hipèrbole còmica en los fragmentos de la archaia (L. Rodrìguez – Noriega) o motivos tòpicos como la misoginia aristofànica (J. Martìnez) ; ponen de manifiesto la degradaciòn de formas y de contenidos de la épica homérica en un comediògrafo "menor" como Hermipo (M. Pellegrino) ; examinan cuestiones de la rivalidad poética entre Cratino y Aristòfanes (M. J. Garcìa Soler) ; y estudian el Fortleben de algunas caracterìsticas fundamentales del drama àtico en el teatro actual (Th. Grammatàs).; Prosopa. Teatro Greco: Studi E Commenti 4; 262 pages‎

‎SCENE FINALI DI ARISTOFANE Cavalieri, Nuvole, Tesmoforiazuse‎

‎Light edgewear to wraps. 1 small chip to head of spine. ; L’intensa attività esegetica sviluppatasi, a partire dalla fine del XIX secolo, intorno alle strutture compositive stabili della commedia aristofanea non ha sinora prodotto un’indagine sistematica sulle scene finali, beneficiarie tutt’al più di cursorie trattazioni all’interno di studi generali sulla morfologia della archaia o sull’opera di Aristofane. Nell’intento di colmare parzialmente questo vacuum esegetico, il presente lavoro offre un puntuale e aggiornato commento, corredato di testo critico e di traduzione italiana, di tre finali aristofanei particolarmente controversi: il finale dei Cavalieri (vv. 1316-1408) , che sin dall’Ottocento si è imposto all’attenzione della critica soprattutto per la sua riconosciuta atipicità in rapporto alle altre chiuse aristofanee pervenute, come anche per la sua apparente estemporaneità ed incoerenza rispetto al resto della trama; il dibattutissimo finale delle seconde Nuvole (vv. 1476-1510/11) , una delle sezioni sottoposte a revisione da Aristofane quando si risolse a rimaneggiare il testo messo in scena nel 423 a. C. , in cui si sono spesso rintracciate singolari anomalie sceniche tali da metterne in dubbio l’effettiva rappresentabilità entro le convenzioni vigenti nel teatro del V secolo a. C. ; e il finale delle Tesmoforiazuse (vv. 1160-1231) , tormentato da spinosi problemi di ordine scenico e testuale tuttora insoluti. Chiude il volume un’Appendice dedicata alla discussione critica di alcuni frammenti della commedia attica antica attribuiti a scene finali. ; Prosopa. Teatro Greco: Studi E Commenti 7; 528 pages‎

‎CLASSICI LETTORI DI CLASSICI Da Virgilio a Marguerite Yourcenar‎

‎Classici lettori di classici non è una tautologia. Chi si occupa di Fortleben sa bene che le letture non sono mai operazioni neutre, soprattutto quando sono compiute da personaggi di eccezione, destinati a loro volta a rientrare nel novero dei “classici”. Ogni lettore, inevitabilmente, è portatore della sua storia e del suo vissuto: rispecchia l’esegesi corrente al proprio tempo (non necessariamente in posizione di acquiescenza, talora anche in chiave critica) e, accanto al patrimonio erudito che dimostra di conoscere e utilizzare (edizioni critiche, testi scientifici di corredo, elementi che in realtà sono spesso ben poco “neutri”) , trasfonde nella sua lettura anche un sistema valoriale che lo induce a compiere delle selezioni. Inevitabilmente, alcuni elementi sono posti in maggior risalto a scapito di altri: questi ultimi finiscono per essere sottaciuti, dimenticati, ma forse anche destinati, in un altro momento (e in diverso contesto) , a essere ripresi in considerazione. Nasce così una nuova interpretazione che si somma alle altre, anche quando pretende di sostituirle, tenuto conto dell’inesistenza, per fortuna, di esegesi “definitive”. ; ECHO 8; 312 pages‎

‎SCHOLIA IN SOPHOCLIS OEDIPUM COLONEUM Recensuit Vittorio De Marco Con Una Premessa Di Giampiera Arrigoni‎

‎Upper corners bumped with small chip to 1 corner. Small tear to cloth at head of spine (1/2 cm). Decorative boards. ; Quando nel 1952 uscì l’edizione degli Scholia all’Edipo a Colono, Vittorio de Marco (Napoli 1899-Roma 1988) era già noto come lo scopritore della familia Romana dei codici di Sofocle e degli Scholia relativi. Grazie anche a due importanti articoli di de Marco del 1936 e del 1937, poi sovente utilizzati negli studi sofoclei, tale scoperta aprì un filone di indagini nuove. L’edizione degli Scholia O. C. Era praticamente uscita in contemporanea con altri corposi articoli di de Marco riguardanti sia gli Scholia che il testo della tragedia sofoclea, e non era sfuggita ai maggiori filologi dell’epoca, che li consideravano lavori interessanti per tutto il testo di Sofocle “in stretta relazione” con le idee di Turyn sulla tradizione manoscritta delle tragedie sofoclee. Dopo l’edizione del 1952, de Marco ritornò sugli Scholia O. C. Con due articoli esemplari. Lasciato l’insegnamento nell’autunno del 1969, in prossimità del suo servizio fuori ruolo all’Università Statale di Milano, si riproponeva di tornare sull’edizione degli Scholia O. C. Del 1952 (specie sulla Praefatio) , ma gradualmente il suo interesse si spostò su Omero, un lavoro di grande lena che lo tenne occupato fino alla sua morte, ossia gli Scholia Minora [D] in Homeri Iliadem, un enorme e pazientissimo lavoro giunto fino al libro XVII e rimasto inedito. ; 76 pages; Xxx, 76 pp‎

‎LA GRÂCE DE THALIE OU LA BEAUTÉ DU RIRE‎

‎"Service de Presse" has been stamped to half-title. Some minor creasing to wraps. ; Le rire est-il, par nature, accouplé à la laideur ? Le « propre de l'homme » se trouve-t-il irrémédiablement sali par cette tare ? Aristote le dit dans sa Poétique, dont si grande fut l'autorité dès la Renaissance. Opinion définitive ? Les auteurs de ce volume ne le pensent pas. Poussés par l'insatisfaction, mais aussi attirés par la grâce rayonnante de Thalie, muse du rire, ils ont relu les oeuvres, d'Homère à Claudel, testé les idées et les pratiques, jugé les censeurs, convoqué les maîtres (Démocrite, Horace, Rabelais, Molière. ) et réfléchi aux enjeux et aux formes. En composant ce recueil, ils ont contribué à mettre en évidence les nuances et l'intensité avec lesquelles peut luire et resplendir l'éclat du rire. ; 208 pages‎
