DJ is rubbed with minor shelfwear and creasing with 1 small tear. ; A considerable number of academic and popular studies on ancient sports have been, and are due to be, published in this Athenian Olympic year (throwing the opening statement of this book into some doubt: `Ancient Greek athletics as a field of study does not suffer from overpopulation') but this study stands out among the best. Miller draws on recent archaeological and historical discoveries to discuss in comprehensive detail all aspects of games and athletic competitions in ancient Greece. Throughout Miller places athletics in its social context because, as he argues, sport was one of the ways in which Greeks could aspire to their cultural ideal, to be civilised men. Supported by numerous photographs, often in colour, and illustrations of sites and objects that depict competitions, the scholarly text describes in fascinating detail the origin of athletics, the Olympic Games and other festivals, the role of women in this male domain, the relationship between an athlete and a hero, Greek recreation, the gymnasium, sport as entertainment, professional athletes and the political side to competitions. Includes a glossary. ; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall; 288 pages
1998Old price sticker to rear wrap. ; 0.79 x 8.5 x 5.67 Inches; 196 pages; In this comprehensive sourcebook, Ilias Arnaoutoglou presents a collection of ancient Greek laws, which are situated in their legal and historical contexts and are interpreted with relevant selections from Greek literature and epigraphical testimonies. A wide area of legislative activity in major and minor Greek city-states is covered, ranging from Delphoi and Athens in mainland Greece, to Gortyn in Crete, Olbia in South Russia and Aegean cities including Ephesos, Samos and Thasos. The book is divided into three legislative areas: the household; the market-place; and the state . The author explores the significance of legislation in ancient Greece, the differences and similarities between ancient Greek legislation and legislators and their modern counterparts and also provides fresh translations of the legal documents presented.

8vo, br, ed, xiv+229p. select bibliography. index. "These essays are drawn from three volumes titled "Israel and Hellas". ancient religion. ancient philosophy. ancient history. ancient literature. archaeology. anthropology. mythology. ~ The Israelites and the Greeks formed "the first free societies, cultivating rain~watered fields around a fortified citadel, recording their words about the human situation in a widely accessible alphabetic script."

In this intriguing and engaging work, he addresses historical, religious, linguistic, and cultural connections. He brings a vast knowledge of the ancient Mediterranean and its languages to these studies, which will startle and entice the reader back to the ancient texts.
