Helen of Troy: Beauty, Myth, Devastation
ISBN: 9780190263539 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Ancient Greek culture is pervaded by a profound ambivalence regarding female beauty. It is an awe-inspiring, supremely desirable gift from the gods, essential to the perpetuation of a man's name through reproduction; yet it also grants women terrifying power over men, posing a threat inseparable from its allure. The myth of Helen is the central site in which the ancient Greeks expressed and reworked their culture's anxieties about erotic desire. Despite the passage of three millennia, contemporary culture remains almost obsessively preoccupied with all the power and danger of female beauty...

The Play of Character in Plato's Dialogues
ISBN: 9780521031424 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 468 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book is an interpretation of Plato in general, and several dialogues in particular, from the point of view of dramatic characterization. It thus forms part of the growing movement towards reading Plato "dramatically," as opposed to reading him as if he wrote treatises like most philosophers. At the same time, it is intended to show traditional "analytical" philosophical interpreters the significance of such "literary" features for understanding the philosophical issues at stake. Its overall goal is to bridge the gulf still existing between such interpreters and more "literary" readers.

ISBN: 9780415907743 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Women on the Edge, a collection of Alcestis, Medea, Helen, and Iphegenia at Aulis, provides a broad sample of Euripides' plays focusing on women, and spans the chronology of his surviving works, from the earliest, to his last, incomplete, and posthumously produced masterpiece.

The female protagonists in these plays test the...

Ancient Sex: New Essays
ISBN: 9780814252116 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Ancient Sex: New Essays presents groundbreaking work in a post-Foucauldian mode on sexuality, sexual identities, and gender identities in ancient Greece and Rome. Since the production of Foucault's History of Sexuality, the field of classics has been caught in a recursive loop of argument regarding the existence--or lack thereof--of "sexuality" (particularly "homosexuality") as a meaningful cultural concept for ancient Greece and Rome. Much of the argument concerning these issues, however, has failed to engage with the central argument of Foucault's work, namely, the assertion that sexuality...
