1986Old price sticker to front inner cover. Minor shelfwear to DJ. ; 208 pages; This authoritative study of Greek insects treats not only the obvious questions of their identity--in modern terms of species and genera--but also such topics as the etymologies (both formal and popular) of the various insect names, the folklore, religious and other signficant associations, and the differences in attitude shown toward them by the ancient and modern world. Patterned after two famous studies by D'Arcy Thompson--A Glossary of Greek Birds and A Glossary of Greek Fishes--this volume provides a meticulous survey of the topic, examining the ancient literature and the enormous secondary literature connected with it, as well as the most recent scientific findings. Like Thompson's glossaries, this work focuses primarily on evidence from literature and art, with later evidence brought in only when needed for a full understanding of the facts. Compiled by a classics scholar working with a zoologist, this glossary provides alphabetically-arranged entries on such common insects as the ant, the louse, the butterfly, the wasp, the bedbug, the cricket, and the praying mantis. The first comprehensive study on this subject, Greek Insects belongs on the bookshelf of every Greek scholar, and it will be of considerable interest to educated readers.

2004"'Greeces twentieth-century history, not unlike that of a large portion of the rest of Europe, has been marked by frequent wars, economic underdevelopment, deep political fissures, political clientelism, and frequent as well as competing foreign intervention in the country's domestic affairs. In political science terms, the countrys democratic system was less than consolidated, in the sense that it was marked by frequent military intervention in politics. This book reconstructs Greeces melancholy political landscape during the dark years of the colonels dictatorship. The author conducted scores of interviews with prominent political figures (e.g., Constantine Karamanlis, Andreas Papandreou, Panayiotis Kanellopoulos, Constantine Mitsotakis, Mikis Theodorakis, Georgios Mavros, Archbishop Makarios and former King Constantine). He also met with some functionaries representing the Greek junta and with a number of American diplomats. These interviews, recorded over thirty years ago, mirror the attitudes and mentalities of political protagonists of that time and could be treated as primary source material for historians who still need to produce a detached and dispassionate record of those trying times." 344p. index Book
