The Laughter of Aphrodite: A Novel about Sappho of Lesbos
ISBN: 9780520203402 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Best-selling classicist Peter Green recreates the life and times of the Greek lyric poet Sappho in this beautifully conceived, sharply detailed work of historical imagination. We meet Sappho at the age of fifty, when she is shaken by her fatal and final love affair with Phaon. She narrates her own story from the vantage point of self-questioning middle age, and her candid meditations make intimate, engrossing reading. Only fragments of Sappho's poetry survive. In imagining Sappho's life Green found his task "rather like that of an archaeologist reassembling some amphora from hundreds of...

Alexander of Macedon, 356–323 B.C.: A Historical Biography
ISBN: 9780520275867 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 672 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Until recently, popular biographers and most scholars viewed Alexander the Great as a genius with a plan, a romantic figure pursuing his vision of a united world. His dream was at times characterized as a benevolent interest in the brotherhood of man, sometimes as a brute interest in the exercise of power. Green, a Cambridge-trained classicist who is also a novelist, portrays Alexander as both a complex personality and a single-minded general, a man capable of such diverse expediencies as patricide or the massacre of civilians. Green describes his Alexander as "not only the most brilliant...

The Shadow of the Parthenon: Studies in Ancient History and Literature
ISBN: 9780520255074 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. A lively combination of scholarship and unorthodoxy makes these studies in ancient history and literature unusually rewarding. Few of the objects of conventional admiration gain much support from Peter Green (Pericles and the "democracy" of fifth-century Athens are treated to a very cool scrutiny) but he has a warm regard for the real virtues of antiquity and for those who spoke with "an individual voice." The studies cover both history and literature, Greece and Rome. They range from the real nature of Athenian society to poets as diverse as Sappho and Juvenal, and all of them, without...

Railways in Devon and Cornwall in the Late 20th Century
ISBN: 9781399034296 / Angielski / Twarda / 2025 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. Devon and Cornwall have long been attractive destinations, not only for holidaymakers, but also for railway enthusiasts, and it was in Devon, during a family holiday in 1959 that the author’s passion for railways began. Peter started photographing railways at an early age, mainly concentrating on steam, but he made some visits to Devon in the 1970s, to see the Western Class diesel-hydraulics running along the coast. They were being replaced by Class 50 diesel-electrics at the time. More time was spent in Devon in the 1970s and early 1980s photographing preserved railways as well as the...

Hellenistic History and Culture: Volume 9
ISBN: 9780520203259 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 293 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In a 1988 conference, American and British scholars unexpectedly discovered that their ideas were converging in ways that formed a new picture of the variegated Hellenistic mosaic. That picture emerges in these essays and eloquently displays the breadth of modern interest in the Hellenistic Age. A distrust of all ideologies has altered old views of ancient political structures, and feminism has also changed earlier assessments. The current emphasis on multiculturalism has consciously deemphasized the Western, Greco-Roman tradition, and Nubians, Bactrians, and other subject peoples of the...
