199130722Routledge. 1991. Hardcover. Very Good in Near Fine dust jacket. Faint foxing to top of textblock. Scholar's bookplate to inner cover G. P. Goold. Very light shelfwear to DJ.; Numerous ancient texts describe human sacrifices and other forms of ritual killing: in 480 BC Themistocles sacrifices three Persian captives to Dionysus; human scapegoats called pharmakoi are expelled yearly from Greek cities and according to some authors they are killed; Locrin girls are hunted down and slain by the Trojans; on Mt Lykaion children are sacrificed and consumed by the worshippers; and many other texts report human sacrifices performed regularly in the cult of the gods or during emergencies such as war and plague. Archaeologists have frequently proposed human sacrifice as an explanation for their discoveries: from Minoan Crete children's bones with knife-cut marks the skeleton of a youth lying on a platform with a bronze blade resting on his chest skeletons sometimes bound in the dromoi of Mycenaean and Cypriot chamber tombs; and dual man-woman burials where it is suggested that the woman was slain or took her own life at the man's funeral. If the archaeologists' interpretations and the claims in the ancient sources are accepted they present a bloody and violent picture of the religious life of the ancient Greeks from the Bronze Age well into historical times. But the author expresses caution. In many cases alternative if less sensational explanations of the archaeological are possible; and it can often be shown that human sacrifices in the literary texts are mythical or that late authors confused mythical details with actual practices. Whether the evidence is accepted or not this study offers a fascinating glimpse into the religious thought of the ancient Greeks and into changing modern conceptions of their religious behaviour.; 8.8 X 5.7 X 1.3 inches; 316 pages . 0415034833 .

199237078Routledge. 1992. Hardcover. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. Very minor shelfwear to book and DJ. Book has a few tiny spots to top of textblock.; 240 pages; In Dangerous Voices Holst-Warhaft investigates the power and meaning of the ancient lament especially women's mourning of the dead and sets out to discover why legislation was introduced to curb these laments in antiquity. An investigation of laments ranging from New Guinea to Greece suggests that this essentially female art form gave women considerable power over the rituals of death. The threat they posed to the Greek state caused them to be appropriated by male writers including the tragedians. Holst-Warhaft argues that the loss of the traditional lament in Greece and other countries not only deprives women of their traditional control over the rituals of death but leaves all mourners impoverished. . 0415072492 .
