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

She insists on the connection between the structure of tragedy and the psychology of abuse, arguing that the tragedy of Medea dramatizes the violent hostility toward children, which is always potentially present in patriarchal culture despite the conspicuous emphasis on positive descriptions of parental love in officially sanctioned discourse. ; Signed by Author

Crease along front wrap else fine. ; 345 pages; This Festschrift honours the Dutch Latinist Ben Hijmans. Besides his studies on Seneca and Ovid, Hijmans published numerous articles on Apuleius' works. In 1973 he initiated the research project Groningen Commentaries on Apuleius, and until his retirement he was editor-in-chief of the series of commentaries issued from that research project. This collection of essays contains a number of important new and original articles on Apuleius' Metamorphoses, on the reception of the Latin novel, and on Apuleius' rhetorical work. The book presents original research on Ovid's Metamorphoses and its reception. Other contributions testify to the broader interests of Ben Hijmans and deal with general cultural aspects, art history, the art of translating, archaeology and iconography. Ben Hijmans' fascination with, and insight into mythical motifs is reflected not only in articles on Pyramus and Thisbe and Actaeon respectively, but also in contributions on Narcissus and on Seneca's mythical tragedies and their transformation in Roman Declamation.

Scholars' bookplate to inner cover (Slater & Dunbabin). Some discoloration to wraps. 1 faint crease to wraps. ; Studies in Greek and Roman Religion, Vol 6; Vol. 1; 267 pages; This is the first of a two-volume collection of studies in inconsistencies in Greek and Roman religion. Their common aim is to argue for the historical relevance of various types of ambiguity and dissonance. The first volume focuses on the central paradoxes in ancient henotheism. The term "henotheism" - a modern formation after the stereotyped acclamation: #EIS O QEOS# ("one is the god"), common to early Christianity and contemporaneous paganism - denotes the specific devotion to one particular god without denying the existence of, or even cultic attention to, other gods. After its prime in the 1920s and 1930s the term fell into disuse. Nonetheless, the notion of henotheism represents one of the most remarkable and significant shifts in Graeco-Roman religion.
Very light shelfwear to book and DJ; 1996 Sandpiper reprint of 1978 Edition. ; 399 pages; Hesiod was an ancient Greek poet whose Works and Days discusses agricultural practices and society in general. Classicists and ancient historians have turned to Works and Days for its insights on Greek mythology and religion. The poem also sheds light on economic history and ancient agriculture, and is a good resource for social scientists interested in these areas. This translation emphasizes the activities and problems of a practicing agriculturist as well as the larger, changing political and economic institutions of the early archaic period. The authors provide a clear, accurate translation along with notes aimed at a broad audience. The introductory essay discusses the changing economic, political and trading world of the eighth and seventh centuries B. C. E. , while the notes present the range and possible meanings of important Greek terms and references in the poem and highlight areas of ambiguity in our understanding of Works and Days.
Minor pencil marginalia to some pages (by Jenifer Neils). ; Stories take time to tell; Greek and Roman artists had to convey them in static images. How did they go about it? How could they ensure that their scenes would be recognized? What problems did they have? How did they solve them? This generously illustrated book explores the ways classical artists portrayed a variety of myths. It explains how formulas were devised for certain stories; how these inventions could be adapted, developed and even transferred to other myths; how one myth could be distinguished from another; what links there were with daily life and historical propaganda; the influence of changing tastes, and problems still outstanding. Examples are drawn from a wide range of media--vases, murals, mosaics, sarcophagi, sculpture--used by the ancient Greeks and Romans. The myths are mostly those that are also easily recognized in later works of art. No previous knowledge of the subject is assumed, all examples are illustrated and all names, terms and concepts are fully explained. Susan Woodford teaches Greek and Roman art at the University of London and is engaged in research for the Department of Greek and Roman Antiquities at the British Museum. A former Fullbright Scholar and Woodrow Wilson Fellow, she and is author of The Parthenon (Cambridge, 1981) , The Art of Greece (Cornell, 1993) , An Introduction to Greek Art (Cornell, 1986) and The Trojan War in Ancient Art (Cornell, 1993). ; 10.2 X 7.2 X 0.9 inches; 332 pages

201215142Georg Olms Verlag. 2012. Paperback. Fine in No Dust Jacket dust jacket. Book is fine.; Classici sono quei testi capaci di originare riscritture e riconoscibili come modelli di altre espressioni letterarie o artistiche. Questo fenomeno di geminazione è particolarmente vistoso per l’Edipo re di Sofocle e l’Edipo di Seneca la cui ricezione è un labirinto fitto e mutevole ricco di contaminazioni e di reticoli intertestuali in cui lo stesso esercizio critico entra a far parte del processo di riscrittura. Il volume comprende 19 contributi: un ampio saggio introduttivo su alcuni particolari temi e morfemi del mito lungo tutta la sua tradizione; 6 contributi dedicati ai due testi antichi fondativi della tradizione edipica; ed infine 12 capitoli incentrati sull'analisi - senza pretese di esaustività - delle diverse tradizioni letterarie teatrali visive e cinematografiche della fortuna di Edipo lungo una dimensione cronologica e geografica che muove dalle prime riprese nella cultura europea dei secoli XVI e XVII fino alla contemporaneità. In chiusura la testimonianza di Edoardo Sanguineti straordinario interprete del teatro classico e dei classici più in generale che ha tradotto a suo modo un Edipo tiranno messo in scena nel 1980 da Benno Besson.; Spudasmata Band 149; 450 pages . 3487148722 .
