The Best of Shakespeare: Retellings of 10 Classic Plays
ISBN: 9780195132137 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 110 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. At the heart of any great work of literature is a story. William Shakespeare's plays are no exception. They tell the stories of kings and queens, of ghosts and witches, of romance and passion.

This new paperback edition brings ten of Shakespeare's greatest plays to life. E. Nesbit, the classic British children's author, shakes off the burdensome complexity of Shakespeare's language and tells the stories at...

Slaves, Warfare, and Ideology in the Greek Historians
ISBN: 9780521893909 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The warring Greek city-states of the classical period often found it advantageous to use slaves in their armed forces and to encourage rebellion or desertion among the slaves of their enemies. But since military service was highly esteemed, while the state of slavery was despised, classical Greek historians such as Herodotus, Thucydides and Xenophon tended not to discuss slave participation in war. This book examines the actual role of slaves in war, the neglect of it by historians, and the reasons for this reticence.
