Greek Mythography in the Roman World
ISBN: 9780195171211 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) By the Roman age the traditional stories of Greek myth had long since ceased to reflect popular culture. Mythology had become instead a central element in elite culture. If one did not know the stories one would not understand most of the allusions in the poets and orators, classics and contemporaries alike; nor would one be able to identify the scenes represented on the mosaic floors and wall paintings in your cultivated friends' houses, or on the silverware on their tables at dinner. Mythology was no longer imbibed in the nursery; nor could it be simply picked up from the often oblique...

Callimachus and His Critics
ISBN: 9780691606125 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 548 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Callimachus has usually been seen as the archetypal ivory-tower poet, the epitome if not the inventor of the concept of art for art's sake, author of erudite works written to be read in book form by fellow poets and scholars. Abundant evidence, much of it assembled here for the first time, suggests a very different story: a world of civic festivals rather than books and libraries, a world in which poetry and poets played a central and public role. In the course of the argument, Cameron casts fresh light on the lives, dates, works, and interrelationships of most of the other leading poets...

The Last Pagans of Rome
ISBN: 9780199959709 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 896 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Rufinus' vivid account of the battle between the Eastern Emperor Theodosius and the Western usurper Eugenius by the River Frigidus in 394 represents it as the final confrontation between paganism and Christianity. It is indeed widely believed that a largely pagan aristocracy remained a powerful and active force well into the fifth century, sponsoring pagan literary circles, patronage of the classics, and propaganda for the old cults in art and literature. The main focus of much modern scholarship on the end of paganism in the West has been on its supposed stubborn resistance to Christianity....

The Greek Anthology: From Meleager to Planudes
ISBN: 9780198140238 / Angielski / Twarda / 1993 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) The Greek Anthology is one of the great books of European literature, "a garden containing the flowers and weeds of 1500 years of Greek epigram." Cameron's study adds a wealth of new information about its growth over an even longer period, from the earliest papyrus anthologies down to the 1606 rediscovery of the Palatine Anthology (AP), our principal source for the entire history of Greek epigram, from Simonides to the Byzantine age. It was a Byzantine schoolmaster, Constantine Cephalas, who excerpted all the major ancient collections around 900. His work is reconstructed from a closer...

Wandering Poets and Other Essays on Late Greek Literature and Philosophy
ISBN: 9780190268947 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This book presents a substantially revised version of some of the most important and innovative articles published by Alan Cameron in the field of late antique Greek poetry and philosophy. Much new material has been added to the account of the "Wandering Poets" from early Byzantine Egypt, and earlier judgment on their paganism is nuanced. The story of Cyrus of Panopolis and the empress Eudocia takes into account important recent work on the poetry of Eudocia. Several chapters discuss the date and identity of the influential poet Nonnus. The longest chapter reviews the celebrated story of the...

Testing for Continuous Delivery with Visual Studio 2012
ISBN: 9781621140184 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) As more software projects adopt a continuous delivery cycle, testing threatens to be the bottleneck in the process. Agile development frequently revisits each part of the source code, but every change requires a re-test of the product. While the skills of the manual tester are vital, purely manual testing can't keep up. Visual Studio 2012 provides many features that remove roadblocks in the testing and debugging process and also help speed up and automate retesting. This guide shows you how to record and play back manual tests to reproduce bugs and verify the fixes, transform manual tests...

Beyond Germs: Native Depopulation in North America
ISBN: 9780816535545 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) There is no question that European colonization introduced smallpox, measles, and other infectious diseases to the Americas, causing considerable harm and death to indigenous peoples. But though these diseases were devastating, their impact has been widely exaggerated. Warfare, enslavement, land expropriation, removals, erasure of identity, and other factors undermined Native populations. These factors worked in a deadly cabal with germs to cause epidemics, exacerbate mortality, and curtail population recovery. Beyond Germs: Native Depopulation in North America challenges the...
