1992Very minor shelfwear else Fine. ; Despite its written literature, ancient Greece was in many ways an oral society. This is the first serious attempt to study the implications of this view. Dr Thomas stresses the coexistence of literacy and oral tradition in Greece and examines their character and interaction. Concentrating on the plentiful evidence from Classical Athens, she shows how the use of writing developed only gradually and under the influence of the previous oral communication. Drawing on anthropological discussion, the author isolates different types of Athenian oral tradition, building up a picture of Athens' traditions about its past and examining why they changed and disappeared. This study provides crucial insights into the methods and achievements of the Greek historians. It also has major implications for the interpretation of ancient literacy. ; Cambridge Studies in Oral and Literate Culture; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 321 pages

2006Corners lightly bumped. A few minor stains to endpapers (toner? ). ; Les dix études rassemblées dans ce volume sont le fruit d'une table ronde organisée en 2002 à l'Institut Ausonius (CNRS - université Michel de Montaigne Bordeaux 3). Des spécialistes de l'Antiquité issus d'horizons divers ont été invités à étudier les pratiques de diffusion et de circulation des informations dans différentes structures étatiques qui toutes avaient à assurer l'expression et l'efficacité de leur pouvoir auprès de leurs administrations locales. L'optique choisie permet de jeter un regard croisé sur le développement de ces réseaux de communication dans des époques, des régions et des conditions très différentes (empire néo-assyrien, royaumes hellénistiques, cités grecques, empire romain et monde chrétien). Les différentes enquêtes abordent des thèmes majeurs et récurrents tels que les codes de communication, la production et les vecteurs de l'information, sa conservation et son archivage. ; Ausonius Éditions Études 14; 228 pages
