Faint bump to base of spine.; Mnemosyne Vol Suppl. 233; 378 pages; What was funny about ancient jokes and why Why did the Roman state legislate to curb the behaviour of its obscenely rich and powerful elite if it never really expected such laws to be obeyed Why did it oppress the poor and lavish public child support on them These are important questions but ancient Greeks and Romans could never have thought of them. They never questioned the right of the rich to be rich. They could not improve their understanding of Homeric gift-giving with the experience of ritualized friendship among the Trobriand islanders. Such questions and such answers can only come from those who live after the ancient past. This volume honours the well-known Dutch epigraphist and ancient historian H. W. Pleket. Ten substantial essays reflect his wide range from early Greece to the Roman Empire and his taste for comparative economic and social history. . 9004128166 . Brill Academic Publishers hardcover

Small chip to laminate along edge of rear wrap else fine.; "This study proposes to investigate the origin of this special sensitivity of Greeks toward balanced structures and its fundamental influence on Greek literature as a whole. Consequently this work consists of two parts.

Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing.; A. J. Littlewood approaches Seneca's tragedies as Neronian literature rather than as reworkings of Attic drama and emphasizes their place in the Roman world and in the Latin literary corpus. The Greek tragic myths are for Seneca mediated by non-dramatic Augustan literature. In literary terms Phaedra's desire Hippolytus' innocence and Hercules' ambivalent heroism look back through allusion to Roman elegy pastoral and epic respectively. Ethically the artificiality of Senecan tragedy the consciousness that its own dramatic worlds events and people are literary constructs responds to the contemporary Stoical dismissal of the public world as mere theatre.; Oxford Classical Monographs; 344 pages; Signed by Author . 0199267618 .

20106693Egbert Forsten. 2010. Hardcover. Fine. Peter Riedlberger’s award-winning thesis offers an exhaustive commentary on the 8th and last book of the Iohannis. This poem intrigues its readers one more than one account: Using the well-established form of Latin epic it offers a fascinating window into the world of reconquered Roman Africa ca. 550 A. D. On one level the commentary tries to elucidate the numerous allusions to contemporary events persons and realia; on another level it firmly sets the poem in the Latin epic tradition distinguishing clearly between poetical conventions and descriptions of real-life facts. The 8th book includes an elaborate Byzantine field mass; hence the commentary’s characterisation as „liturgical“. In addition to the commentary this book comprises a critical edition of the 8th book which differs considerably from the current standard edition the first-ever German translation and a comprehensive introduction which inter alia establishes the true name of the author Gorippus not Corippus and challenges the current notion of the function and role of late antique panegyrics. Strong points include the book’s high readability its many illustrations which include useful maps and several reproductions from the codex unicus which are used habitually to prove deviant readings and its modern layout which distributes the poem’s text and translation over the commentary rather than forcing the reader to use two bookmarks. The book comes with comprehensive indices.; 503 pages; Text in German . 9069801574 . Egbert Forsten hardcover
