4 volumi in 8.vo, brossura ed. PP.XLIX+331+LVI+332, 419, 484. I primi due volumi del poema epico, scritto dal poeta vissuto nelle estreme propaggini del mondo pagano nel V secolo d.C. e a lungo dimenticato, sono stati pubblicati da Adelphi nel 1997 e nel 1999. Nella terza e penultima parte delle Dionisiache la spedizione indiana di Dioniso procede verso il trionfo inevitabile; ma Nonno conosce l'arte del differimento e della sospensione, e saranno necessarie altre peripezie per debellare il re Deriade e conquistare la sua città. I primi due volumi del poema epico, scritto dal poeta vissuto nelle estreme propaggini del mondo pagano nel V secolo d.C. e a lungo dimenticato, sono state pubblicate da Adelphi nel 1997 e nel 1999. Nei dodici canti finali delle Dionisiache - summa abbagliante del mito greco e nel contempo dei molti modi poetici, dall'epico all'erotico all'elegiaco, di quella civiltà - Nonno trascina il lettore alternando sapientemente toni, motivi e atmosfere esotiche. L'immane carneficina esito dei sei anni della guerra indiana esige che i comandanti sospendano le ostilità per onorare i morti - e la descrizione dei giochi funebri celebrati per commemorare Ofelte diventa l'occasione per una virtuosistica gara con il modello omerico. Esperto nell'arte del differimento, Nonno ne rinvia ulteriormente l'inevitabile conclusione inserendo come vertiginoso intermezzo l'episodio di Fetonte, precipitato dal cielo per aver osato guidare il Carro del Sole. Sconfitto il re degli Indiani Deriade in duello, Dioniso giunge prima in Libano, terra del suo avo Cadmo, e poi a Tebe, sua città natale. Ma una nuova serie di avventure lo porterà in altri luoghi della Grecia e in Frigia, dove, unitosi ad Aura, darà vita alla sua terza incarnazione, Iacco, il cui avvento lo libera da ogni responsabilità verso gli uomini -e consente a Nonno di chiudere il poema conducendo il suo eroe, divinizzato, sull'Olimpo. La letteratura epica greca si apre con Omero e si chiude con Nonno, sommo poeta che visse nelle estreme propaggini del mondo pagano (V secolo d.C.) e per secoli venne dimenticato. Con questo quarto volume - corredato di un saggio introduttivo, di un commento e di un Indice analitico relativo all'intero testo delle Dionisiache - si conclude l'opera avviata da Dario Del Corno nel 1997. I primi tre volumi sono apparsi presso Adelphi fra il 1997 e il 2005.

2008réf. 143955Meletemata Series No. 53. In English. Soft cover 30 cm 256 pp.; net weight 1270 gr. The Aegean is a unique region in which several ancient civilizations developed. Despite the problems the sea posed for communications and everyday life human settlement and organization are well attested from earliest times. Moreover some extremely important cultures took shape in the Neolithic and the Bronze Age. The cultures of the Cycladic islanders the Minoans and the Therans were followed by the Egyptians and the Phoenicians. Strong cities and mighty hegemonies arose such as Euboea Athens Macedonia Thasos and Rhodes while the Romans had to conquer the whole region in order to cross the sea securely and extend their power further east. All these civilizations with their close inter-connections and reciprocal influences as well as their contacts with the world beyond constituted a strong chain of culture that endured for many centuries. Difficulties created by the sea and the scatteredness of the islands as well as by hostile incursions from the mainland had little serious effect on the continuity of life and communication in the Aegean. The Romans and later the Byzantines having created an enormous imperium dealt with the region as a whole. The idea of mare nostrum was eminently appropriate to the Aegean before it spread to the entire Mediterranean. These waters were always regarded as a factor of unification rather than of separation by the people living on the islands or the shores as borne out by their rich variety of relations common reactions and policies. In the restricted space of a volume we can only give some hints or glimpses at the immense circulation of ideas people goods artefacts and coins that took place across Aegean waters in ancient times. That is why we chose not to concentrate on one subject or one chronological period but to ask for contributions on a variety of subjects and from different periods each shedding some light on the diverse aspects of life in the Archipelago.

8vo, hardcover in dj, as new. xviii + 273pp., appends., bibliog., index, For the craft of Odysseus and the wisdom of Athena were examples of metis, an elusive cast of mind that ranged from wisdom and forethought to craft and cunning. Although it informed many aspects of Greek society, metis was all but absent from the language of Greek philosophy. Invoking indigenous Chinese debates, Lisa Raphals here examines the role and significance of metic intelligence in classical Chinese philosophy, literature, history, and military strategy.Raphals first examines the range of meanings of the Chinese word zhi. As with the Greek metis, the uses of zhi include "wisdom," "knowledge," "intelligence," "skill," "cleverness," and "cunning." Drawing on parallels between the two traditions, she argues that, in China as in Greece, metic intelligence tacitly informed many aspects of cultural and social life. In China, these included views of the nature of knowledge and language, standards of personal and social morality, and theories of military strategy and statecraft. After surveying representative texts from the Warring States period, Raphals considers the function of metic intelligence as the dominant quality of central characters in two novels from the Ming dynasty, the Romance of Three Kingdoms and Journey to the West. Finally, she compares the treatment of themes of heroism and recognition in the Chinese and Greek narrative traditions.
