1995réf. 44307University of California Press. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. Hardcover. 465 pages; The two silver skyphoi commonly known as the Boscoreale Cups of Augustus and Tiberius are indispensable for providing the documentation of one of the only two cycles of Roman imperial state reliefs to survive from the Julio-Claudian period. Ann Kuttner offers the first comprehensive examination of these historical treasures. Kuttner studies the Cups not only from the standpoint of art history but also as they relate to Augustan ideology and politics. When she began work on this book the whereabouts of the Cups were unknown and she had to rely on the illustrations in Monuments et Memoires Fondation Eugen Pinot 1901. The rediscovery of the Cups at the Louvre in late 1990 has allowed Kuttner to examine them directly. . 1995. 0520067738 . University of California Press hardcover

Gass's On Being Blue.

2001réf. 44467Rizzoli. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. Hardcover. Very light bump to 1 corner of book. DJ has edgewear and minor chipping.; The Etruscans have long been a rich source of research and intellectual inquiry as the most significant ethnic group who resided in ancient Etruria current-day Tuscany and Umbria in Italy. A well-defined polity the Etruscans were an advanced people whose presence on the Italian peninsula from the 8th to 4th century B. C. Had an enormous impact on Roman culture whose rise of power saw the collapse of Etruscan civilization. This book is extensive in its scope; it traces the rise of the Etruscans at the end of the Bronze Age; examines the economic structure of the society; explores the emergence of a powerful aristocracy in the period from 750-650 B. C. ; and considers the religious and cultural life of the group. This knowledge has largely been gleaned from a wealth of monuments and material culture which the Etruscans left behind including architecture the various forms of which indicate familial structure and socio-economic standing not to mention the larger social structure of Etruscan society and applied arts such as bronze objects for both ceremonial use and everyday life which were produced by an artisan class for a wealthy and demanding aristocracy. Etruscan contributions to the history of art are also of immense importance and are explored in depth in this volume. Etruscan wall painting was exceptional in that it is one of the few examples of pre-Roman artistic production of this genre. Sculpture was also a relatively highly developed form of art and the Etruscans are known for their important experiments with form. Noted scholar Mario Torelli editor of the book gathers here an illuminating collection of essays reflective of the most current research on the Etruscans. As a professor of classical archaeology for nearly three decades who has directed archeological digs at some of the most significant Etruscan sites Torelli offers a unique insight into the scholarly terrain of Etruscan studies. Torelli also contributes a substantive essay on Etruscan religion exploring the rather exceptional character of this important aspect of Etruscan life. Lavishly illustrated with beautiful reproductions of Etruscan art and culture this impressive catalogue explores every aspect of the Etruscan people and their artistic and cultural legacy in the most expansive consideration of their enormous contribution to Western culture to date.; 4to 11" - 13" tall; 672 pages; Heavy book. . 2001. 0847823911 .

1996réf. 44718Cornell University Press. Very Good in Near Fine dust jacket. Hardcover. Faint foxing to textblock. Dustjacket is protected in mylar.; Myth and Poetics; 219 pages; Leonard Muellner's goal is to restore the Greek word for the anger of Achilles mênis to its social mythical and poetic contexts. His point of departure is the anthropology of emotions. He believes that notions of anger vary between cultures and that the particular meaning of a word such as mênis needs to emerge from a close study of Greek epic. Mênis means more than an individual's emotional response. On the basis of the epic exemplifications of the word Muellner defines the term as a cosmic sanction against behavior that violates the most basic rules of human society. To understand the way mênis functions Mueller stresses both the power and the danger that accrue to a person who violates such rules. Transgressive behavior has both a creative and a destructive aspect. . 1996. 0801432308 . Cornell University Press hardcover

Edgewear creasing and a couple of tears to DJ.; The essays in this volume present new insights into the far-reaching influence of an early oral culture on subsequent development after the spread of literacy. At the outset revisionist essays on the Homeric epics examine such questions as historical memory Homer's audience s descriptive strategies ring-composition and the status of orality as a constitutive feature of the epics. These are followed by virtually unprecedented studies of the orality of later written literature including Greek oratory Virgilian epic Pliny's Panegyricus and story-telling in late Greek writers. Included as well are two discussions of Athenian vase-painting: annular scene-composition in the black-figure tradition and the implications of kalos-inscriptions. An introduction by leading oral theorist John Miles Foley situates all the essays at the leading edge of oral theoretical development.; Mnemosyne. Bibliotheca Classica Batava.
