Minor bump at top of spine.; Studies on Themes and Motifs in Literature; 0.75 x 9 x 6 Inches; 228 pages; Both the alliterative Gest Hystoriale of the Destruction of Troy c. 1400 and the Laud Troy Book c. 1400 a metrical romance deal with the lives and feats of chivalric heroes and place special emphasis on the psychological effects of love. This book is a study of the motifs in John Clerk's and the Laud-poet's narratives and of their characterization of the Trojan War's principal actors. Both writers used the same source but their preferences for motifs and their attitudes toward the persons involved were often quite different. Thirteen illustrations mainly from medieval Guido manuscripts serve as a stimulus to those who want to know more about the medieval understanding of the Trojan War. . 1433100126 .

Old price sticker to front inner cover. Minor shelfwear to DJ. ; 208 pages; This authoritative study of Greek insects treats not only the obvious questions of their identity--in modern terms of species and genera--but also such topics as the etymologies (both formal and popular) of the various insect names, the folklore, religious and other signficant associations, and the differences in attitude shown toward them by the ancient and modern world. Patterned after two famous studies by D'Arcy Thompson--A Glossary of Greek Birds and A Glossary of Greek Fishes--this volume provides a meticulous survey of the topic, examining the ancient literature and the enormous secondary literature connected with it, as well as the most recent scientific findings. Like Thompson's glossaries, this work focuses primarily on evidence from literature and art, with later evidence brought in only when needed for a full understanding of the facts. Compiled by a classics scholar working with a zoologist, this glossary provides alphabetically-arranged entries on such common insects as the ant, the louse, the butterfly, the wasp, the bedbug, the cricket, and the praying mantis. The first comprehensive study on this subject, Greek Insects belongs on the bookshelf of every Greek scholar, and it will be of considerable interest to educated readers.
