‎UNWRITTEN ROME‎

‎University of Exeter Press. Very Good. 2008. Paperback. 0859898237 . Very minor shelfwear. Light creasing to upper corner of rear wrap. ; In Unwritten Rome a new book by the author of Myths of Rome T. P. Wiseman presents us with an imaginative and appealing picture of the early society of pre-literary Rome-as a free and uninhibited world in which the arts and popular entertainments flourished. This original angle allows the voice of the Roman people to be retrieved empathetically from contemporary artefacts and figured monuments and from selected passages of later literature. How do you understand a society that didn't write down its own history That is the problem with early Rome from the Bronze Age down to the conquest of Italy around 300 BC. The texts we have to use were all written centuries later and their view of early Rome is impossibly anachronistic. But some possibly authentic evidence may survive if we can only tease it out - like the old story of a Roman king acting as a magician or the traditional custom that may originate in the practice of ritual prostitution. This book consists of eighteen attempts to find such ma; 376 pages . University of Exeter Press paperback‎

‎London: Thames & Hudson. Near Fine. 2010. Softcover. 0500287481 .

‎Cambridge University Press. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1992. Second Revised Edition. Hardcover. 0521228042 . Very small ink markings to about 2 pages. Some minor pencilling. ; The first section of this volume examines the Persian empire the regions it comprised and its expansion under Cyrus Darius and Xerxes. In Greece Sparta attained maturity as the leader of a military coalition and Athens passed through a period of enlightened tyranny to a moderate democracy of dynamic energy and intelligence. Given the contrast between Greek idealism and Persian absolutism a clash between the two empires was inevitable. Important chapters deal with the revolt of Ionian Greeks against the Persians and the two Persian invasions of Greece including epic battles at Marathon Tthermopylae and Salamis. The book's third part turns to the Western Mediterranean: Italy becomes a significant factor in the area's historical development and is explored in terms of its peoples and languages from the Bronze to the Iron Ages. ; Cambridge Ancient History Series; Vol. 4; 6.75 X 2.75 X 9.25 inches; 946 pages .

‎MILETOS THE ORNAMENT OF IONIA A History of the City to 400 B.C.E.‎

‎University of Michigan Press. Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 2001. Hardcover. 047211199X . Very light edgewear to DJ with 1 tiny chip. ; 320 pages; Situated on the southwest coast of modern Turkey Miletos stood for centuries as one of the paramount cities in the Hellenic world a gateway between the East and West. It became especially famous as the most prolific mother city in Greek history sending out at least forty-five known primary and secondary settlements into the Sea of Marmara and the Black Sea while at home developing into an intellectual and artistic center and one of the birthplaces of Western science and philosophy. A history of Miletos is long overdue. Despite the significance of this city in antiquity and the important results of ongoing excavations there the last full-scale discussion of Miletos was written in 1915. In Miletos the Ornament of Ionia Vanessa B. Gorman provides the first and only modern integrated history of the city collecting and scrutinizing sources about Miletos for the period stretching from the first signs of habitation until 400 B. C. E. This book reviews the archaeological evidence for the physical city demonstrates the likelihood of both Minoan and Mycenaean settlements there and substantiates the fact of the Persian destruction and refoundation of Miletos along orthogonal lines. With insight and diligence Gorman surveys the cults known to have existed during this period; traces the political progress of the city through monarchy oligarchy tyranny and democracy; and sketches the terms of its subjugation under the Persians and later the Athenians. Providing a detailed and up-to-date account of the development of one of the major urban centers of Asia Minor Gorman's book will engage classicists historians and Near Eastern specialists. .
