THE FRAGMENTARY LATIN POETS Edited with Commentary
Foxing/dustsoiling to top of textblock. Else very light shelfwear to book. DJ has a bit of foxing. ; To understand fully the development of Latin poetry, one has to consider not only the prominent figures whose works survive entire but also the writers known to us only in fragments from quotations. The fragments of the non-dramatic poets have been collected by Baehrens, Morel, and Buchner, but only a few have ever received a commentary. This book revises the texts, taking advantage of much earlier work now largely forgotten, and provides the necessary interpretative and illustrative material. Some writers not usually included in this corpus are here covered, such as the minor works of Ennius. ; 560 pages

THE DRAMA OF EURIPIDES
Scholar's name to ffep (Philippa Goold née Forder). Spine a bit browned. Foxing/dustsoiling to top of textblock. Light pencilling to a couple of pages. ; Euripides is here studied as a great artist of the theatre, and no attempt is made to discover his personal views and beliefs. Indeed, the author insists that such attempts have been made too frequently, and that they have obscured the greatness of the plays as works of art. Each play is discussed in turn as a piece of literature, with the emphasis on dramatic structure and development. ; 456 pages

EURIPIDEA Collected Essays
Foxing/dustsoiling to top of textblock. DJ spine and part of rear panel sunned and discolored. ; James Diggle's groundbreaking studies on the text of Euripides, culminating in his new edition of the complete plays in the Oxford Classical Texts series, have won him a wide reputation as one of the leading authorities on Euripides. This collection comprises forty-one papers and reviews (including five previously unpublished papers) designed as a companion to the Oxford Text. The published papers and reviews have been lightly revised and updated and equipped with copious cross-references. There are full indexes. The collection not only offers a commentary on an extensive range of problematic passages in the plays; it also provides an up-to-date grammar of Euripidean usage--linguistic, stylistic, and metrical--and deals with many aspects of the manuscript tradition. ; 8.6 X 5.7 X 1.5 inches; 576 pages

XENOPHON'S IMPERIAL FICTION On the Education of Cyrus
Foxing to top of textblock with some minor shelfwear. DJ has light shelfwear. ; "If you inquire into the origins of the novel long enough," writes James Tatum in the preface to this work, ". . . You will come to the fourth century before our era and Xenophon's Education of Cyrus, or the Cyropaedia." The Cyrus in question is Cyrus the Great, the founder of the Persian empire celebrated in the Book of Ezra as the liberator of Israel, and the Cyropaedia, written to instruct future rulers by his example, became not only an inspiration to poets and novelists but a profoundly influential political work. With Alexander as its earliest student, and Elizabeth I of England one of its later pupils, it was the founding text for the tradition of "mirrors for princes" in the West, including Machiavelli's Prince. Xenophon's masterpiece has been overlooked in recent years: Tatum's goal is to make it fully meaningful for the twentieth-century reader. ; 328 pages

EURIPIDES: PHAETHON Edited with Prolegomena and Commentary.
Scholar's bookplate to inner cover (G. P. Goold). Foxing to top of textblock. Very minor shelfwear to DJ. ; Cambridge Classical Texts and Commentaries 12; 256 pages; The surviving text of the fragmentary Phaethon of Euripides depends chiefly on two sources: two pages from a Euripidean manuscript, written about A.D. 500, and a papyrus of the third century B.C., which contains a substantial part of the parodos. These sources are supplemented by a number of citations in classical authors and by a recently published fragmentary hypothesis. Professor Diggle has examined all the manuscript evidence and offers many decipherments. He gives a text of the play and of the hypothesis, an exegetical commentary, prolegomena and appendices, in which he discusses the treatment of the Phaethon myth in classical literature and attempts a reconstruction of the plot of the play.

THE SONGS OF HOMER
Scholar's bookplate to inner cover (G. P. Goold). Foxing/dustsoiling to top of textblock. Dustjacket has a few small tears. DJ spine browned. ; 9 x 1.25 x 6 Inches; 438 pages; The literature of the western world begins with one of its greatest achievements. The stories of the wrath of Achilles and its consequences, and of the wanderings of Odysseus, have been admired from ancient times to the present day. The two great epics can be read and enjoyed, unreflectingly, as tales of adventure; or they can be studied as literature, yielding, as insight and understanding grow, a deeper and more permanent pleasure. Professor Kirk's book is the means to this pleasure. It is a vivid and comprehensive account of the background and development of the Homeric poems and of their quality as literature. The epics are seen primarily as oral poetry, sung for centuries by illiterate singers; and from this view rises discussion of the problems of authorship and transmission. The historical, archaeological and linguistic evidence is also examined; and the possible contributions of the Mycenaean period and of the subsequent Dark Age are shown in a fresh light.

HOMER AND THE ORAL TRADITION
Scholar's bookplate to inner cover (G. P. Goold). Light Foxing/dustsoiling to top of textblock. Dustjacket rubbed. DJ spine sunned. ; 231 pages; The Songs of Homer (Cambridge University Press, 1962) was a major contribution to Homeric studies, establishing important theories about the composition, structure and transmission of the monumental poems. In this 1976 volume, Geoffrey Kirk returns to Homer, but the themes are largely different. He considers in particular the nature of oral and epic poetry, and the meaning of an oral tradition. There are problems here of interest not only to classicists and Homeric specialists but also to students of English and comparative literature, and to anthropologists concerned with the literature of traditional societies. Those pieces that were previously published were revised and unified for the volume. The longest section, on 'the oral and the literary epic', is derived from the J. H. Gray Lectures, which Professor Kirk delivered in Cambridge in 1974 and which had not been previously published in any form.
