Cambridge Ancient History Series; 260 pages; This book of plates can be used either as a companion to Volume IV or as an independent illustrated account of the period and of the evidence of Greek civilization and culture as it encountered the Persian empire and struggled for its freedom. Detailed commentary accompanies a full pictoral survey of the art and archaeology of the Persian empire and its provinces from Thrace to India. The section on Greece concentrates on late Archaic Athens immediately before the Persian wars and considers cultural progress as evidence of various aspects of Greek life and society. The fortunes of the Western Greek colonial area and of the Etruscan and Italic peoples are similarly treated. The volume concludes with a study of the invention of coinage and its use throughout Greece and Persia. . 0521305802 . Cambridge University Press hardcover

19909289J. C. Gieben. 1990. Hardcover. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. Dust-soiling to top of textblock. Some foxing to endpapers and DJ. Small closed tear 1cm to upper corner of DJ.; Philosophica Vol. 3; 521 pages; According to Aristotle philosophy had come into being in the VIth century with Thales just as a mere disinterested pursuit of truth a curiosity for great problems those eventually called "metaphysical" ones which were substantially identical with those which Aristotle himself and his school were now raising. This abstract reading is very similar to that which views Greek poets as inspired by "eternal beauty" or by "art's for art sake" and which is nowadays completely discredited and given up by scholars of the history of literature. Against this view the present text proposes a new reading of the "archaic" presocratic scientists: in fact it is about those "sages" who lived on the boundaries of the Greek-speaking world before the concentration of such people in Periclean Athens. They were closely linked to their native towns Miletus Ephesus Croto Vele Acragas where they held high office; here there oral teaching and the public reading of their texts were followed closely by their fellow citizens. Thus the picture of the "cosmic republic" arises: to the "cosmic monarchy" of Homer and Hesiod the mythical world with Zeus as the king gods as the ministers and nature as the subject a different mythical world succeeds. Here the earth the sea the sky the human body and generally the "existing thing" all behave like isonomic "republican" towns or like the governing body of these towns. Philosophy will arise later in Athens of the Vth century. . 9070265559 . J. C. Gieben hardcover

201222171Cambridge University Press. 2012. Hardcover. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1 corner lightly bumped else book is fine. DJ has tiny chip near heel of spine.; Athenians in the classical period 508-322 BC were drawn to an image of themselves as a compassionate and generous people who rushed to the aid of others in distress both at home and abroad. What relation does this image bear to actual Athenian behavior This book argues that Athenians felt little pressure as individuals to help fellow citizens whom they did not know. Democratic ideology called on citizens to refrain from harming one another rather than to engage in mutual support and emphasized the importance of the helping relationship between citizen and city rather than among individual citizens. If the obligation of Athenians to help fellow citizens was fairly tenuous all the more so was their responsibility to intervene to assist the peoples of other states; a distinct pragmatism prevailed in the city's decisions concerning intervention abroad.; 215 pages . 1107029775 .
