200239959University of California Press. 2002. Hardcover. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. Gift inscription from author to Carolyn Dewald on ffep. DJ some a bit of creasing with DJ spine a bit wavy.; 1.13 x 9.38 x 6.3 Inches; 362 pages; Wealth and power are themes that preoccupy much of Greek literature from Homer on and this book unravels the significance of these subjects in one of the most famous pieces of narrative writing from classical antiquity. Lisa Kallet brilliantly reshapes our literary and historical understanding of Thucydides' account of the disastrous Sicilian expedition of 415Ð413 b.c. a pivotal event in the Peloponnesian War. She shows that the second half of Thucydides' History contains a damning critique of Athens and its leaders for becoming corrupted by money and for failing to appropriately use their financial strength on military power. Focusing especially on the narrative techniques Thucydides used to build his argument Kallet gives a close examination of the subjects of wealth and power in this account of naval war and its aftermath and locates Thucydides' writings on these themes within a broad intellectual context. <P>Among other topics Kallet discusses Thucydides' use of metaphor his numerous intertextual references to Herodotus and Homer and thematic links he makes among the topics of money emotion and sight. Overall she shows that the subject of money constitutes a continuous thematic thread in books six through eight of the History. In addition this book takes a fresh look at familiar epigraphic evidence. Kallet's ability to combine sophisticated literary analysis with a firm grasp of Attic inscriptions sheds new light on an important work of antiquity and provides a model example of how to unravel a dense historical text to reveal its underlying literary principles of construction.; Signed by Author . 0520229843 .

20107445Franz Steiner Verlag. 2010. Hardcover. Fine in No Dust Jacket dust jacket. Historia - Einzelschriften 217; 236 pages; English summary: The contrast between monarchical and republican constitution is one of the key factors of political processes and discourses in ancient communities. However the sharp dichotomy between republic and monarchy at least according to present published research seems to more closely back the needs of those groups backing Republican orders than was actually the case in reality. The aim of this volume is to develop an interpretive model that takes the openness of dynamics and development of such processes seriously. It is not enough to purely reconstruct historical causalities. Instead individual examples from Greek and Roman history are used to study the risk posed by the respective populations' steps toward stabilization in close connection with their potential for political transformation. German text. German description: Der Gegensatz zwischen monarchischer und burgerstaatlich-republikanischer Verfasstheit gehort zu den zentralen Faktoren politischer Prozesse und Diskurse in den antiken Gemeinwesen. Allerdings scheint die in den Quellen fassbare scharfe Dichotomie zwischen Republik und Monarchie eher dem Bedurfnis der Tragergruppen republikanischer Ordnungen als den tatsachlichen Verhaltnissen entsprochen zu haben. Letztere sind vielmehr durch fliessende Ubergange von der Monarchie zur Republik und umgekehrt gekennzeichnet die erklarungsbedurftig sind.Ziel des Bandes ist ein Interpretationsmodell zu entwickeln das die Dynamik und Entwicklungsoffenheit solcher Prozesse ernst nimmt; dazu reicht eine reine Rekonstruktion historischer Kausalitaten nicht aus. Stattdessen werden an Einzelbeispielen aus der griechischen und romischen Geschichte die von den jeweiligen Gesellschaften ausgehenden Stabilisierungsleistungen in enger Verknupfung mit ihren politischen Transformationspotentialen untersucht. . 3515097821 .

19941778J. C. Gieben. 1994. Hardcover. Fine in No Dust Jacket dust jacket. Unwrapped in Plastic.; 10 x 1 x 6.75 Inches; 340 pages; The Professor Emeritus of Greek at Berkeley offers six original papers the titles of which are indicative of the contents: - The Alleged Battle of Oinoa. - The General's Exhortations in Greek Warfare. - The General on the Battlefield. - Thucydides and Pylos. - The Roads of Akarnania. - Circumventions of the Thermopylai Pass. These studies are a by-product of Pritchett's studies on Greek military practices and Greek topography and will be of interest to students of Greek historiography since all involve problems of text and the veracity of the historians. The three topographical chapters which are based on extensive autopsy and include some new discoveries are accompanied with photographs and sketchmaps. . 9050633161 . J. C. Gieben hardcover

2009140267<p>Institute for Mediterranean Studies: Halcyon Days in Crete VI. A Symposium held in Rethymnon 13-15 January 2006. Soft cover 24 cm 438 pp.</p><p>The island of Crete was conquered by the Ottomans in the mid-seventeenth century and was their last significant and long-lasting conquest of territory not previously held. Ottoman Crete has in recent years attracted historians’ attention for a number of reasons among which two particularities related to broader themes in Ottoman history stand out: the institution of private landownership in 1670 in breach of the age-long tradition of the miri ‘state’ land system and the emergence of a large Muslim population mainly through the conversion of locals to Islam. The papers in this volume bring to light new archival narrative and epigraphic sources for Ottoman Crete and the Eastern Mediterranean and aspire to contribute to the exploration of these but also other themes: centre-periphery relations and administration of an insular province taxation agricultural production social life and culture.</p><p>.</p><p>.</p><p>==============================================================</p><p><b>IMPORTANT: The price does NOT include the shipping cost which depends on actual weight and destination.

2008148557<p>Bilingual greek-english OR greek-french edition; hard cover 25X23 cm 180 pp. ill. Thanks to the variety of shapes and decorated surfaces found in vases the art of pottery developed a more extensive repertoire of subjects related to the sea than any other art form. The forty-two characteristic examples of marine iconography included in this catalogue come mainly from the collections of the Louvre though also from those of other museums. They are divided into four groups: marine fauna and seafaring the deities of the deep the voyages of gods and heroes who crisscrossed the ocean and finally the miraculous birth of the goddess who emerged from the waves Aphrodite born from the foam. The variety and aesthetic quality of marine scenes in vase-painting reveal once more the importance of the sea to Greek civilization.</p><p>==============================================================</p><p><strong><i><b>IMPORTANT:</b></i></strong></p><ul><li>The shipping cost estimated by the system covers books weighing up to 750 gr.; a surcharge depending on the actual weight and destination applies for heavier books.
