Shay, Jonathan
ACHILLES IN VIETNAM Combat Trauma and the Undoing of Character
Light Shelfwear. Scholar's name to ffep (Robert Brown). ; 0.68 x 8.41 x 5.53 Inches; 272 pages; Shay works from an intriguing premise: that the study of the great Homeric epic of war, The Iliad, can illuminate our understanding of Vietnam, and vice versa. Along the way, he compares the battlefield experiences of men like Agamemnon and Patroclus with those of frontline grunts, analyzes the berserker rage that overcame Achilles and so many American soldiers alike, and considers the ways in which societies ancient and modern have accounted for and dealt with post-traumatic stress disorder---a malady only recently recognized in the medical literature, but well attested in Homer's pages.

Lateiner, Donald
SARDONIC SMILE Nonverbal Behavior in Homeric Epic
Book is fine. Spine is sunned and discolored. Dustjacket is protected in mylar. ; 1.25 x 9.75 x 6.5 Inches; 368 pages; <div>In <i>Sardonic Smile</i>, Donald Lateiner examines every major variety of Homeric nonverbal behavior, especially those found in the <i>Odyssey</i>. Noting differences from modern gestures and attending to variation that results from gender, age, and status, Lateiner explores the "silent language" and "what goes without saying" among the heroes Odysseus, Telemakhos, and Penelope--but also the savage Kyklops, the suitors, and the servants. No previous work has thoroughly analyzed nonverbal behavior in Homeric epic. Gesture and posture, conscious and unconscious manipulation of space and time, and involuntary "leakage," such as twitching and shivering, can intensify and underline--or contradict and ironize--the speech of characters and hexameter narrative.<br></div><div>A <i>Choice</i> Outstanding Academic Book for 1995.<br></div><div>"An important contribution to Homeric studies." --<i>Choice</i><br></div><div>"<i>Sardonic Smile</i> opens up new dimensions for the study of ancient literature; one may predict that analysis of the nonverbal 'parallel texts' will become increasingly common as a result of the important study." --Walter Donlan, <i>Classical Journal</i><br></div><div>Donald Lateiner is John R. Wright Professor of Greek and Humanities, Ohio Wesleyan University. He is the author of <i>The Historical Method of Herodotus</i> and has written and lectured widely on nonverbal behavior in antiquity.<br></div>
