Generic Composition in Greek and Roman Poetry (Revised)
ISBN: 9780979971310 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Original in conception and powerful in scope, Generic Composition in Greek and Roman Poetry remains one of the most important books on early Greek, Hellenistic and Roman poetry in a generation. First published in the philological climate of the early 1970s, Francis Cairns' book was among the first works that sought to further our comprehension of difficult or obscure ancient poems by applying new literary-critical conventions and terminology, notably the concept of genre.

Virgil's Augustan Epic
ISBN: 9780521034968 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. An examination of the main characters in the Aeneid - Aeneas himself, Dido and Turnus - in the light of Virgil's contemporary Augustan political and literary ideology. The characters and the plot and incident of the epic are seen as embodying and exemplifying first the ancient ideals of kingship and concord, and second the Roman self-identification as at once 'Italian' and 'Trojan', and finally as reflecting the literary self-evaluation of the Augustan age. In the literary area, Virgil's relations with contemporary Roman elegy, with early Greek lyric and, most important, with Homer, are...

ISBN: 9780521864572 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 510 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In 30 15 BC Sextus Propertius composed at Rome four books of elegies which range from erotic to learned to political and exhibit an unparalleled richness of themes, concepts and language. This book investigates their sources and motives, examining Propertius' family background in Umbrian Asisium and tracing his career as he sought through poetry to restore his family's fortunes after the Civil Wars. Propertius' progress within the Roman poetic establishment depended on his patrons - Tullus, 'Gallus', Maecenas and Augustus. Initially his poetry was influenced radically by his elegiac...
