1992Best.-Nr. 6661Franz Steiner Verlag. Very Good. Softcover. 2 small Creases along spine. Signed by author to Christian Habicht on ffep.; Historia - Einzelschriften; 83 pages; A new and expanded text with translation of the best-known Spartan inscription Meiggs & Lewis no. 67 together with detailed epigraphical textual historical and economic commentaries. The new text is based on a fresh examination of the stone the diaries of early travellers who saw the stone when it was better preserved than it is today and a newly discovered fragment which adds Aiginetan and Chian exiles and individual Achaians and Spartans to the list of Sparta's war supporters. This new text enables the date of the inscription previously controversial to be fixed in the early years of the Peloponnesian War thereby shedding light on Spartan war-finance and Greek attitudes towards Athens in the 420s and providing a badly-needed fixed point for Laconian Epigraphy. The monograph also clarifies the meaning of the Greek words opheugoo ophugaso.; Signed by Author . 1992. 3515061479 . Franz Steiner Verlag paperback

1994Best.-Nr. 33294University of California Press. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. Hardcover. Light edgewear and faint creasing to DJ.; Hellenistic Culture and Society; 545 pages; Alexander the Great changed the face of the ancient world. During his life and after his death his image in works of art exerted an unprecedented influence on marbles bronzes ivories frescoes mosaics coins medals even painted pottery and relief ware. Alexander's physiognomy became the most famous in history. But can we really know what meaning lies behind these images Andrew Stewart demonstrates that these portraits wildly divergent in character quality type provenance date and purpose actually transmit not so much a likeness of Alexander as a set of carefully crafted cliches that mobilize the notion "Alexander" for diverse ends and diverse audiences. Stewart discusses the portraits as studies in power and his original interpretation of them gives unprecedented fullness and shape to the idea and image called "Alexander." . 1994. 0520068513 .
