200414540Ferdinand Schöningh. 2004. Softcover. Very Good. Light rubbing to wraps. Some pencil marginalia to text by R. E. Fantham. Minor shelfwear.; Wohl kaum ein anderer Mythenkomplex griechischen Ursprungs übte auf Rom eine solche Faszination aus wie die Geschichte von den Pelopiden. Welche Bedeutung man dem Thema beigemessen hat bezeugen die zahlreichen Tragödien mit dem Titel Atreus oder Thyestes in deren Zentrum der den sittlichen Tiefpunkt des Geschlechtes markierende Frevel der coena Thyestea stand. Die Untersuchung geht den Voraussetzungen und Bedingungen nach die den außergewöhnlichen Erfolg gerade dieses Mythos ermöglichten. Es zeigt sich dass die große ideologische Aussagekraft die der Mythos im Verständnis des römischen Publikums entfaltete auf die ganz spezifische Gestalt zurückzuführen ist welche der Tragiker Accius dem Stoff in mehreren seiner Dramen verliehen hat.; Studien Zur Geschichte Und Kultur Des Altertums Neue Folge 1.

199418030I. B. Tauris. 1994. Hardcover. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. Former owner's name in pencil and blindstamp to ffep. Else very minor shelfwear to book and DJ.; This study in comparative mythology interprets the Greek myths in the light of the mythologies of other Indo-European cultures - Indian Celtic Scandinavian Roman Greek Iranian and Ossetian. The author uses a modified version of the schema proposed by the French theorist Dumezil to consider the profound connections between such works as the "Iliad" the "Odyssey" the Indian epics - the "Ramayana" and the "Mahabharata" - the Iranian "Book of Kings" and the Scandinavian "Yaglingasaga". The book includes a long critical exposition of the discipline of comparative mythology from its 18th-century origins to the revival of the discipline by Dumezil and his followers from 1938 to the present. It also reassesses the profound critique of Dumezil which linked him with Nazi ideology.; 256 pages . 1850438315 . I. B. Tauris hardcover
