2002réf. 39959University of California Press. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. Hardcover. Gift inscription from author to Carolyn Dewald on ffep. DJ some a bit of creasing with DJ spine a bit wavy.; 1.13 x 9.38 x 6.3 Inches; 362 pages; Wealth and power are themes that preoccupy much of Greek literature from Homer on and this book unravels the significance of these subjects in one of the most famous pieces of narrative writing from classical antiquity. Lisa Kallet brilliantly reshapes our literary and historical understanding of Thucydides' account of the disastrous Sicilian expedition of 415Ð413 b.c. a pivotal event in the Peloponnesian War. She shows that the second half of Thucydides' History contains a damning critique of Athens and its leaders for becoming corrupted by money and for failing to appropriately use their financial strength on military power. Focusing especially on the narrative techniques Thucydides used to build his argument Kallet gives a close examination of the subjects of wealth and power in this account of naval war and its aftermath and locates Thucydides' writings on these themes within a broad intellectual context. Among other topics Kallet discusses Thucydides' use of metaphor his numerous intertextual references to Herodotus and Homer and thematic links he makes among the topics of money emotion and sight. Overall she shows that the subject of money constitutes a continuous thematic thread in books six through eight of the History. In addition this book takes a fresh look at familiar epigraphic evidence. Kallet's ability to combine sophisticated literary analysis with a firm grasp of Attic inscriptions sheds new light on an important work of antiquity and provides a model example of how to unravel a dense historical text to reveal its underlying literary principles of construction.; Signed by Author . 2002. 0520229843 .

2010réf. 7445Franz Steiner Verlag. Fine with no dust jacket. Hardcover. Historia - Einzelschriften 217; 236 pages; English summary: The contrast between monarchical and republican constitution is one of the key factors of political processes and discourses in ancient communities. However the sharp dichotomy between republic and monarchy at least according to present published research seems to more closely back the needs of those groups backing Republican orders than was actually the case in reality. The aim of this volume is to develop an interpretive model that takes the openness of dynamics and development of such processes seriously. It is not enough to purely reconstruct historical causalities. Instead individual examples from Greek and Roman history are used to study the risk posed by the respective populations' steps toward stabilization in close connection with their potential for political transformation. German text. German description: Der Gegensatz zwischen monarchischer und burgerstaatlich-republikanischer Verfasstheit gehort zu den zentralen Faktoren politischer Prozesse und Diskurse in den antiken Gemeinwesen. Allerdings scheint die in den Quellen fassbare scharfe Dichotomie zwischen Republik und Monarchie eher dem Bedurfnis der Tragergruppen republikanischer Ordnungen als den tatsachlichen Verhaltnissen entsprochen zu haben. Letztere sind vielmehr durch fliessende Ubergange von der Monarchie zur Republik und umgekehrt gekennzeichnet die erklarungsbedurftig sind.Ziel des Bandes ist ein Interpretationsmodell zu entwickeln das die Dynamik und Entwicklungsoffenheit solcher Prozesse ernst nimmt; dazu reicht eine reine Rekonstruktion historischer Kausalitaten nicht aus. Stattdessen werden an Einzelbeispielen aus der griechischen und romischen Geschichte die von den jeweiligen Gesellschaften ausgehenden Stabilisierungsleistungen in enger Verknupfung mit ihren politischen Transformationspotentialen untersucht. . 2010. 3515097821 .

These studies are a by-product of Pritchett's studies on Greek military practices and Greek topography and will be of interest to students of Greek historiography since all involve problems of text and the veracity of the historians.
