A few scratches to back panel of DJ .; Few sources reveal the life of the ancient Romans as vividly as do the houses preserved by the eruption of Vesuvius. Wealthy Romans lavished resources on shaping their surroundings to impress their crowds of visitors. The fashions they set were taken up and imitated by ordinary citizens. In this illustrated book Andrew Wallace-Hadrill explores the rich potential of the houses of Pompeii and Herculaneum to offer new insights into Roman social life. Exposing misconceptions derived from contemporary culture he shows the close interconnection of spheres we take as discrete: public and private family and outsiders work and leisure. Combining archaeological evidence with Roman texts and comparative material from other cultures Wallace-Hadrill raises a range of new questions. How did the organization of space and the use of decoration help to structure social encounters between owner and visitor man and woman master and slave What sort of "households" did the inhabitants of the Roman house form How did the world of work relate to that of entertainment and leisure How widely did the luxuries of the rich spread among the houses of craftsmen and shopkeepers Through analysis of the remains of over two hundred houses Wallace-Hadrill reveals the remarkably dynamic social environment of early imperial Italy and the vital part that houses came to play in defining what it meant "to live as a Roman."; 244 pages . 0691069875 .

Dustjacket has faint creasing; 0.85 x 9.32 x 6.32 Inches; 240 pages; Theseus is celebrated as the greatest of Athenian heroes. This work explores what he meant to the Athenians at the height of their city-state in the fifth century B. C. Assembling material that has been scattered in scholarly works Henry Walker examines the evidence for the development of themyth and cult of Theseus in the archaic age. He then looks to major works of classical literature in which Theseus figures exploring the contradictions between the archaic primitive side of his character and his refurbished image as the patron of democracy. His ambiguous nature as outsider flouting accepted standards of behavior while at the same time being a hero-king and a representative of higher ideals is analyzed through his representations in the work of Bacchylides Euripides and Sophocles. This is the only work of scholarship that examines the literary representation ofTheseus so thoroughly. It brings to life a literary character whose virtues flaws and contradictions belong in no less a degree to his creators the people of Athens. . 0195089081 . Oxford University Press hardcover
