201116137Barkhuis. 2011. Hardcover. Fine in No Dust Jacket dust jacket. The study of the reception of the ancient novel and of its literary and cultural heritage is one of the most appealing issues in the story of this literary genre. In no other genre has the vitality of classical tradition manifested itself in such a lasting and versatile manner as in the novel. However this unifying centripetal quality also worked in an opposite direction spreading to and contaminating future literatures. Over the centuries from Antiquity to the present time there have been many authors who drew inspiration from the Greek and Roman novels or used them as models from Cervantes to Shakespeare Sydney or Racine not to mention the profound influence these texts exercised on for instance sixteenth-to eighteenth-century Italian Portuguese and Spanish literature. Volume I is divided into sections that follow a chronological order while Volume II deals with the reception of the ancient novel in literature and art. The first volume brings together an international group of scholars whose main aim is to analyse the survival of the ancient novel in the ancient world and in the Middle Ages in the Renaissance in the 17th and 18th centuries and in the modern era. The contributors to the second volume have undertaken the task of discussing the survival of the ancient novel in the visual arts in literature and in the performative arts.; Ancient Narrative Supplementum 14.2; 2; 211 pages . 9077922989 .

20083767Oxbow Books. 2008. Softcover. Fine. These ten papers from two Theoretical Roman Archaeology Conference 2007 sessions bring together a growing body of new archaeological evidence in an attempt to reconsider the way in which the Roman army was provisioned. Clearly the adequate supply of food was essential to the success of the Roman military. But what was the nature of those supply networks Did the army rely on imperial supply lines from the continent as certainly appears to be the case for some commodities or were provisions requisitioned from local agricultural communities If the latter was the case was unsustainable pressure placed on such resources and how did local communities respond Alternatively did the early stages of conquest include not only the development of a military infrastructure but also an effective supply-chain network based on contracts Beyond the initial stages of conquest how were provisioning arrangements maintained in the longer term did supply chains remain static or did they change over time and if so what precipitated those changes Addressing such questions is critical if we are to understand the nature of Roman conquest and the extent of interaction between indigenous communities and the Roman army. Case studies come from Roman Britain Alchester Cheshire Dorset France the Netherlands and the Rhine Delta looking at evidence from animal products military settlements the size of cattle horses pottery and salt. The editors also provide a review of current research and suggest a future agenda for economic and environmental research.; 160 pages . 1842173235 . Oxbow Books paperback

Top Corners and spine ends are very lightly bumped.; Old age today can be seen as a demographic timebomb or as a resource of wisdom and experience to be valued and exploited. With a unique emphasis on both the individual and society's responses Karen Cokayne explores how ancient Rome dealt with the physical intellectual and emotional implications of the ageing process and asks how the Romans themselves experienced and responded to old age.

201214889Francis Cairns Publications Ltd. 2012. Hardcover. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. Very light bump to edge of rear board. Very light shelfwear to DJ.; J. Gordon Howie's seminal papers on Homer Hesiod Sappho Pindar Euripides Thucydides and Xenophon document the vitality and influence of cultural and intellectual patterns first visible in early Greek epic and lyric and reveal the impact of those patterns on Attic drama and on the Greek historians. A focal figure in this process and throughout Howie's papers is Pindar who transmitted his poetic past while transforming it in ways that made it acceptable to fifth-century Athenian culture. These papers composed over a period of nearly thirty years from the mid-1970s on are collected in this volume together with one new chapter and a new appendix to chapter 9 a consolidated bibliography and indexes. The volume will be of interest to classical scholars and teachers and to students of the Classics.; Collected Classical Papers 3; 443 pages . 0905205545 . Francis Cairns (Publications) Ltd hardcover

202341431Liverpool University Press. 2023. Second Edition. Hardcover. Fine in No Dust Jacket dust jacket. Iphigenia in Tauris tells the story of the princess Iphigenia who was sacrificed by her father Agamemnon to expedite his campaign against Troy but was rescued by the goddess Artemis and transported to the land of the Taurians. There she herself must perform human sacrifices as a priestess of Artemis in the local cult. Troy has now been sacked and Agamemnon murdered by his wife and avenged by his son Orestes. With his mother's blood on his hands Orestes is guided by Apollo to seek purification through bringing the image of the Tauric Artemis to Greece and so is reunited with his sister. The drama centers on Orestes' near-sacrifice at Iphigenia’s hands their recognition in the nick of time and their ingenious and thrilling escape to bring the cult of Artemis to Halae and Brauron near Athens.Martin Cropp’s first edition was originally published in 2000 and provided the first commentary on the play since those of Maurice Platnauer Oxford 1938 and Hans Strohm Munich 1949. It contributed significantly to a revival of interest in what had been a rather neglected and underrated play. This new edition incorporates substantial revisions to the introduction and commentary and some corrections to the Greek text and translation in light of reviews of the first edition and other recent work.; Aris & Phillips Classical Texts; 5.83 X 0.65 X 8.27 inches; 312 pages; Text with facing translation commentary and notes. . 1837644322 .

201341432Oxbow Books. 2013. Hardcover. Near Fine in No Dust Jacket dust jacket. Very minor shelfwear. Gift inscription to titlepage from Collard to Martin Cropp. Very minor pencilling to a couple of pages.; Satyric is the most thinly attested genre of Greek drama but it appears to have been the oldest and according to Aristotle formative for tragedy. By the 5th Century BC at Athens it shared most of its compositional elements with tragedy to which it became an adjunct; for at the annual great dramatic festivals it was performed only together with and after the three tragedies which each poet was required to present in competition. It was in contrast with them aesthetically and emotionally its plays being considerably shorter and simpler; coarse and half-way to comedy it burlesqued heroic and tragic myth frequently that just dramatised and performed in the tragedies.Euripides'Cyclops is the only satyr-play which survives complete. It is generally held to be the poet's late work but its companion tragedies are not identifiable. Its title alone signals its content Odysseus' escape from the one-eyed man-eating monster familiar from Book 9 of Homer's Odyssey. Because of its uniqueness Cyclops could afford only a limited idea of satyric drama's range which the many but brief quotations from other authors and plays barely coloured. Our knowledge and appreciation of the genre have been greatly enlarged however by recovery since the early 20th Century of considerable fragments of Aeschylus Euripides' predecessor and of Sophocles his contemporary - but not so far of Euripides himself.This volume provides English readers for the first time with all the most important texts of satyric drama with facing-page translation substantial introduction and detailed commentary. It includes not only the major papyri but very many shorter fragments of importance both on papyrus and in quotation from the 5th to the 3rd Centuries; there are also one or two texts whose interest lies in their problematic ascription to the genre at all. The intention is to illustrate it as fully as practicable.; Aris & Phillips Classical Texts; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 528 pages; Text with facing translation commentary and notes.; Signed by Editor . 1908343354 .
