1997Very light shelfwear ; Building upon the groundbreaking work of Milman Parry and Albert Lord, "Out of Line" presents a new theory of Homeric composition, focusing upon patterns that extend beyond the boundary of the line and the clause. Matthew Clark takes enjambment as a starting point, analyzing the techniques used by the poet to complete a line that begins with a runover. Clark proceeds to propose two levels of analysis, a "deep-structure" level, which describes the associations of words and ideas before they take metrical form, and a "surface-structure" level, which describes the words as they are employed on any particular occasion. "Out of Line" combines formulaic and metrical analysis, expanding the study of Homeric meter both in practice, by taking into account larger compositional structures such as entire scenes, and in theory, by using the results to test models of formulaic composition. This book is important for students and scholars of Homer, epic, and oral literature. ; 0.83 x 9.29 x 6.19 Inches; 264 pages
1692pp (8), 56. 4to. 230 mm. Minor worm hole at blank fore edge margin. Later half leather binding; somewhat crudely restored. Still a very good example. Hardbound. This Restoration comedy was first acted late in 1672, by the King's Company at their theatre at Lincoln's Inn Fields, but was not a success with its audience. Apart from the question of the play's quality - many critics have regarded it as a rush job, written mainly in prose with some blank verse - Dryden was suspected of anti-Catholic satire, especially in his choice of a subtitle. This was a sensitive issue at the time, given strong Catholic sympathies among some elements of the royal court - primarily the Duke of York, the future King James II. The cast of the original production included Michael Mohun as the Duke of Mantua, Edward Kynaston as Prince Frederick, Charles Hart as Aurelian, William Cartwright as Mario, and Nicholas Burt as Camillo. The role of Hyppolita, the nun, was taken by Mary Knep; Rebecca Marshall played Lucretia. Dryden drew plot material from a play by Pedro Calderon de la Barca, titled 'Con quien vengo vengo'. The Assignation was first published in 1673 by Henry Herringman; then republished in 1678 and 1692. Dryden dedicated the play to Sir Charles Sedley" - From Wiki. Wing D2243. **PRICE JUST REDUCED!

1970DJ is price-clipped. Very minor shelfwear. ; 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.

2004Very light bump to top edges of boards. Very minor shelfwear. ; Die Cistellaria ist von der Plautus-Philologie lange vernachlässigt worden. Dieser Befund mag einerseits auf ihren stark lückenhaften Erhaltungszustand zurückzuführen sein; man wähnte sie auch als 'menandrischstes' der plautinischen Stücke, so daß die Vermutung, das 'Plautinische im Plautus' lasse sich an dieser Komödie nicht so deutlich wie an anderen zeigen, zu diesem geringen Interesse beigetragen hat. Dieser Sammelband zur lange vernachlässigten, aber geistvollen Cistellaria präsentiert 30 Beiträge von Gelehrten aus 10 Ländern, die das Stück mit vielfältigen Fragestellungen aus den Bereichen Analyse, Interpretation, Gender, Datierung, Metrik, Textkritik und Rezeption erschließen. Durch den Blick auf andere plautinische Komödien trägt der Band auch zu einer Erweiterung der Perspektive auf das Gesamtwerk des römischen Dichters bei. ; Scriptoralia 128.; 491 pages

1871590 p. + Portrait plates + Added chromolithographed title page. Thick 8vo. 22 cm. Original deeply embossed cloth binding, somewhat worn at extremities. Some foxing and age stain. Private library labels. Olive Logan was the daughter of a famous actor, dramatist, and theater manager who was most active in Ohio and the mid-West. She was a child actress who went on to a long stage career. She suppleme nted her income by working as a journalist, and later as a lecturer. Some of her accounts of the stage were sensational. As she unfolds her memoirs she gives a great many little details about the art of stage craft and the state of the American theater in the latter half of the 19th century. Much of this is accomplished by her portrayals of the great stage personalities of the age. She also tries to redeem the actors' profession from the still wide-held belief that it was immoral and dishonorable. "If (my work) strips off some of the 'gauze and vanity' from the 'show world' I hope it a l so e xhibits that world in a fairer and juster light to many who have hitherto looked on it with ungenerous and unenlightened eyes" -- From the Preface.
