Alexandra: Greek Text, Translation, Commentary, and Introduction
ISBN: 9780198810643 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 656 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Alexandra attributed to Lykophron is a minor poetic masterpiece. At 1474 lines, it is one of the most important and notoriously difficult Greek poems dating from the Hellenistic period (most likely the early second century BC).

The poem's importance arises from the light which it sheds on Greek religion (in...

Pindar's Poetry, Patrons, and Festivals: From Archaic Greece to the Roman Empire
ISBN: 9780199296729 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

The editors assembled an internationally distinguished team of speakers for the original 2002 seminar series held in London, and these papers form the backbone of the book. But to ensure coherence and comprehensive coverage, they have...

Why was emperor Nero popular with the ordinary people but less so with the upper classes? Why (according to ancient authors) was Oedipus ('with swollen foot') so called?
For over 2,000 years the civilizations of ancient Greece and Rome have captivated our collective imagination and provided inspiration for so many aspects of our lives, from culture, literature, drama, cinema, and television to society, education, and politics. Many of the roots of the way life is lived in the West today can be traced to the ancient... What did the ancient Greeks eat and drink? What role did migration play?

Thucydides and Pindar: Historical Narrative and the World of Epinikian Poetry
ISBN: 9780199249190 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 472 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Simon Hornblower argues for a relationship between Thucydides and Pindar not so far acknowledged in modern scholarship. He argues that ancient critics were right to detect stylistic similarities between these two great exponents of the "severe style" in prose and verse. In Part One he explores the background of epinikian poetry and athletics, the values shared by the two authors, and religion and colonization myths, and presents a geographically organized survey of Pindar's Mediterranean world, exploiting onomastic evidence. Part Two includes an analysis of Thucydides' account of the Olympic...
