Light shelfwear to DJ.; Professor Winnington-Ingram's reputation as an authority on Greek drama is based on a lifetime's careful scholarship. In 1980 the Press published Professor Winnington-Ingram's book on Sophocles and in 1983 he followed it up with some studies on Aeschylus. This book explores the problems in Aeschylus' earlier plays: Persae Septem contra Thebas and the Daniad trilogy. There is also an emphasis on different aspects of the Oresteia and finally an examination of the peculiar problems in Prometheus Bound. A view of Aeschylean tragedy emerges - and of the poet's contribution to the development of Greek religious thought. Students of Greek drama will welcome this collection. Greek in the body of the text is translated so that the book will be accessible to those studying Greek literature in translation and the literature and drama of other cultures.; 240 pages . 0521249384 .

200227626Cambridge University Press. 2002. Hardcover. Fine in Fine dust jacket. Dustjacket is protected in mylar.; Wilson examines the nature of compensation--ransom and revenge--in the Iliad offering a fundamentally new reading of the quarrel between Agamemnon and Achilles. She presents a detailed anthropology of compensation in Homer located in the wider context of agonistic exchange to demonstrate how the struggle over definitions is a central feature of elite competition for status in the zero-sum and fluid ranking system of Homeric society. The study thus asserts the integral role of compensation in the traditional cultural and poetic matrix of this foundational epic.; 1.25 x 9.75 x 6.75 Inches; 250 pages . 0521806607 .
