HOMER AND THE ARTISTS ; Text and Picture in Early Greek Art

199827601Cambridge University Press. 1998. Hardcover. Very Good in No Dust Jacket dust jacket. Very minor shelfwear.; This is a study of the works of art from early Greece that have long been presented as "illustrations to Homer " but that are argued here to be nothing of the kind. Early Greek artists showed no preference for Homeric subjects and when their interests did coincide with Homer's treated his account as at best one of the possible variants. Close descriptive analysis of texts and pictures and of the artists' aims together with statistical evidence provide the basis for the argument.; 0.43 x 8.29 x 5.91 Inches; 200 pages . 0521620228 .

THE TYRANT'S WRIT; Myths and Images of Writing in Ancient Greece

199438856Princeton University Press. 1994. Hardcover. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. Light shelfwear to book and DJ.; 280 pages; Covering material as diverse as curse tablets coins tattoos and legal decrees Deborah Steiner explores the reception of writing in archaic and classical Greece. She moves beyond questions concerning ancient literacy and the origins of the Greek alphabet to examine representations of writing in the myths and imaginative literature of the period. Maintaining that the Greek alphabet was not seen purely as a means of transcribing and preserving the spoken word the author investigates parallels between writing and other signifiers such as omens tokens and talismans; the role of inscription in religious rites including cursing oath-taking and dedication; and perceptions of how writing functioned both in autocracies and democracies. Particularly innovative is the suggestion that fifth-century Greek historians and dramatists portrayed writing as an essential tool of tyrants who not only issue written decrees but also "inscribe" human bodies with brands and cut up land with compasses and rules. The despotic overtones associated with writing inform discussion of its function in democracies. Although writing could promote equal justice ancient sources also linked this activity with historical and mythical figures who opposed the populist regime. By examining this highly nuanced portrayal of writing Steiner offers a new perspective on ancient views of written law and its role in 5th-century Athenian democracy. . 0691032386 .
