No Regrets: Remorse in Classical Antiquity
ISBN: 9780199668892 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. No Regrets: Remorse in Classical Antiquity is the first sustained study examining the circumstances under which the emotions of remorse and regret were manifested in Greek and Roman public life. Despite a still-common notion that remorse is a modern, monotheistic emotion, it argues that remorse did in fact exist in pre-Christian antiquity. By discussing the standard lexical denotations of remorse, Fulkerson shows how its parameters were rather different from its modern counterpart. Remorse in the ancient world was normally not expressed by high-status individuals, but by their inferiors,...

The Ovidian Heroine as Author: Reading, Writing, and Community in the Heroides
ISBN: 9780521846721 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Ovid's Heroides, a catalogue of letters by women who have been deserted, has too frequently been examined as merely a lament. In a new departure, this book portrays the women of the Heroides as a community of authors. Combining close readings of the texts and their mythological backgrounds with critical methods, the book argues that the points of similarity between the different letters of the Heroides, so often derided by modern critics, represent a brilliant exploitation of intratextuality, in which the Ovidian heroine self-consciously fashions herself as an alluding author influenced by...

A Literary Commentary on the Elegies of the Appendix Tibulliana
ISBN: 9780198759362 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This volume focuses on the nineteen elegiac poems of the Appendix Tibulliana, a series of little-known Latin elegies transmitted as Book 3 of the Corpus Tibullianum. Although it is accepted that they are not the work of Tibullus himself their actual authorship remains unclear and has been hotly disputed: they are notable especially for containing work attributed to Sulpicia, who may be the only female Latin poet we know of from pre-Christian antiquity.
Though admittedly somewhat obscure, this volume argues that the elegies of the Appendix Tibulliana have been... This volume focuses on the nineteen elegiac poems of the Appendix Tibulliana, a series of little-known Latin elegies transmitted as Book 3 of...

Repeat Performances: Ovidian Repetition and the Metamorphoses
ISBN: 9780299307509 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Although repetition is found in all ancient literary genres, it is especially pervasive in epic poetry. Ovid's Metamorphoses exploits this dimension of the epic genre to a great extent; past critics have faulted it as too filled with recycled themes and language. This volume seeks a deeper understanding of Ovidian repetitiveness in the context of new scholarship on intertextuality and intratextuality, examining the purposeful reuse of previous material and the effects produced by a text's repetitive gestures.
A shared vision of the possibilities of Latin epic poetry unites the... Although repetition is found in all ancient literary genres, it is especially pervasive in epic poetry. Ovid's Metamorphoses exploits this dime...

Ovid: A Poet on the Margins
ISBN: 9781472531346 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Latin poet Ovid was famously exiled by the Emperor Augustus to the shores of the Black Sea for his self-confessed crimes of 'a poem and a mistake'. Throughout his poetry, he discusses his exile and embraces the themes of marginality and alterity. This core motif is explored throughout this overview of Ovid's life, the society he lived in and his innovative, perennially popular body of work. Presenting basic biographical information and the historical context of the newly Augustan Rome, the book details the contextual instabilities inherent in living at the border between...
