Latin Elegy and Hellenistic Epigram: A Tale of Two Genres at Rome
ISBN: 9781443826785 / Twarda / 2011 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The relationship between the genres of elegy and epigram has been much debated and from a dizzying variety of angles. The contributors to this volume explore the impact of Hellenistic Greek epigram on Latin erotic elegy in the light of the recent discovery and publication of papyrus book-rolls, especially those containing Hellenistic Greek epigram collections. Individual chapters approach the interrelations of Greek epigram and Latin elegy through the theoretical frameworks of intermediality (the contamination of the two different media of stone inscription and book roll) and textual...

Virgil
ISBN: 9781848859197 / Angielski / Twarda / 2019 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Hailed in his lifetime and in every generation thereafter as the supreme Roman poet, Publius Vergilius Maro (70-19 BCE), otherwise known as Virgil, wrote three books of hexameter verse that defined the 'golden age' of Latin poetry. Virgil, as Alison Keith shows, has never gone out of critical or popular fashion. His ascent from the lesser genre of pastoral (the Bucolics) through a more ambitious didactic mode (the Georgics) to the soaring heights of epic (the incomparable Aeneid) inspired countless other authors, starting with his younger contemporary Ovid and continuing through the medieval...

Identities, Ethnicities and Gender in Antiquity
ISBN: 9783111115900 / Angielski / Miękka / 2022 / 293 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The question of ‘identity’ arises for any individual or ethnic group when they come into contact with a stranger or another people. Such contact results in the self-conscious identification of ways of life, customs, traditions, and other forms of society as one’s own specific cultural features and the construction of others as characteristic of peoples from more or less distant lands, described as very ‘different’. Since all societies are structured by the division between the sexes in every field of public and private activity, the modern concept of ‘gender’ is a key comparator...

Change Me: Stories of Sexual Transformation from Ovid
ISBN: 9780199941650 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Ovid's stories melt moral conventions, explore ambiguities, and dissolve boundaries between men, women, animals, gods, plants, and the mineral world; in doing so they contrive to seduce readers. Ovid's dark pleasure in telling such stories with a full register of tones is palpable. But the stories of sexual encounter in the Metamorphoses are also infused with deep questions. What does it mean to have thoughts and passions trapped inside a changeable body? What is a self, and where are its edges? If someone can pierce you in sex and in love, how do you survive? And if your outer form changes,...
