Wild Justice
ISBN: 9781853995965 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 298 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. 'Revenge is a kind of wild justice...' (Francis Bacon). Euripides' "Hecuba" is dominated by the vengeance which Hecuba takes on the faithless Polymestor, and explores in a complex and profound manner the potential for revenge as a subject for tragedy. The sacrifice of Polyxena is in counterpoint to the revenge action; the whole is set in the chaotic aftermath of the fall of Troy. The combination of plots creates one of Euripides' most effective dramas, full of pathos, suspense and excitement. This study of the play in English argues that it has been greatly undervalued by critics who have... 'Revenge is a kind of wild justice...' (Francis Bacon).

The papers range from the Old Testament to the Arab world, from the New Testament to the Lives of Saints, from the classic Greek and Roman biographers to less well known practitioners of the art.

Sparta in Plutarch's Lives
ISBN: 9781910589854 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Plutarch (born before AD 50, died after AD 120) is the ancient author who has arguably contributed more than any other to the popular conception of Sparta.
