DJ is price-clipped. Very minor shelfwear. ; Cambridge Classical Texts and Commentaries 12; 256 pages; The surviving text of the fragmentary Phaethon of Euripides depends chiefly on two sources: two pages from a Euripidean manuscript, written about A.D. 500, and a papyrus of the third century B.C., which contains a substantial part of the parodos. These sources are supplemented by a number of citations in classical authors and by a recently published fragmentary hypothesis. Professor Diggle has examined all the manuscript evidence and offers many decipherments. He gives a text of the play and of the hypothesis, an exegetical commentary, prolegomena and appendices, in which he discusses the treatment of the Phaethon myth in classical literature and attempts a reconstruction of the plot of the play.

Very light bump to top edges of boards. Very minor shelfwear. ; Die Cistellaria ist von der Plautus-Philologie lange vernachlässigt worden. Dieser Befund mag einerseits auf ihren stark lückenhaften Erhaltungszustand zurückzuführen sein; man wähnte sie auch als 'menandrischstes' der plautinischen Stücke, so daß die Vermutung, das 'Plautinische im Plautus' lasse sich an dieser Komödie nicht so deutlich wie an anderen zeigen, zu diesem geringen Interesse beigetragen hat. Dieser Sammelband zur lange vernachlässigten, aber geistvollen Cistellaria präsentiert 30 Beiträge von Gelehrten aus 10 Ländern, die das Stück mit vielfältigen Fragestellungen aus den Bereichen Analyse, Interpretation, Gender, Datierung, Metrik, Textkritik und Rezeption erschließen. Durch den Blick auf andere plautinische Komödien trägt der Band auch zu einer Erweiterung der Perspektive auf das Gesamtwerk des römischen Dichters bei. ; Scriptoralia 128.; 491 pages

Private library labels. Olive Logan was the daughter of a famous actor, dramatist, and theater manager who was most active in Ohio and the mid-West. She was a child actress who went on to a long stage career. She suppleme nted her income by working as a journalist, and later as a lecturer. Some of her accounts of the stage were sensational. As she unfolds her memoirs she gives a great many little details about the art of stage craft and the state of the American theater in the latter half of the 19th century. Much of this is accomplished by her portrayals of the great stage personalities of the age. She also tries to redeem the actors' profession from the still wide-held belief that it was immoral and dishonorable. "If (my work) strips off some of the 'gauze and vanity' from the 'show world' I hope it a l so e xhibits that world in a fairer and juster light to many who have hitherto looked on it with ungenerous and unenlightened eyes" -- From the Preface.
