ISBN: 9789004294639 / Starogrecki / Twarda / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Brill's Companion to the Reception of Aristophanes
ISBN: 9789004270688 / Starogrecki / Twarda / 452 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Brill's Companion to the Reception of Aristophanes provides a substantive account of the reception of Aristophanes (c. 446-386 BC) from Antiquity to the present. Aristophanes was the renowned master of Old Attic Comedy, a dramatic genre defined by its topical satire, high poetry, frank speech, and obscenity. Since their initial production in classical Athens, his comedies have fascinated, inspired, and repelled critics, readers, translators, and performers. The book includes seventeen chapters that explore the ways in which the plays of Aristophanes have been understood, appropriated,...

ISBN: 9789004327306 / Starogrecki / Twarda / 456 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Voice and Voices in Antiquity draws together 18 studies of the changing concept of voice and voices in the oral traditions and subsequent literate genres of the ancient world. Ranging from the poet's voice to those of characters as well as historically embodied communities, and from the interface between the Greek and Near Eastern worlds to the western reaches of the Roman Empire, the scholars assembled here offer a methodologically rich and diverse series of approaches to locating the power of voice as both poetic construct and communal memory. The results not only enrich our...

Direct Speech in Nonnus' Dionysiaca: Narrative and Rhetorical Functions of the Characters' "Varied" and "Many-Faceted" Words
ISBN: 9789004325890 / Starogrecki / Twarda / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Direct Speech in Nonnus' Dionysiaca is the first more extensive study of the use and functions of direct speech in Nonnus' Dionysiaca (5th century AD). Its long soliloquies and scarcity of dialogues have often been pointed out as striking characteristics of Nonnus' epic style, but nonetheless this fascinating subject received relatively little attention. Berenice Verhelst aims to reveal the poem's constant interplay between the epic tradition and the late antique literary context with its clear rhetorical stamp. She focusses on the changed functions of direct speech and their...

The Textual Tradition of Plato's Timaeus and Critias
ISBN: 9789004325913 / Starogrecki / Twarda / 566 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In The Textual Tradition of Plato's Timaeus and Critias, Gijsbert Jonkers provides new insights into the extant ancient and medieval evidence for the text of both Platonic dialogues. The discussions are set in the broader context of examinations in recent decades of the textual traditions of other individual Platonic works. Particularly the vast collection of testimonia of the Timaeus, one of Plato's most read, interpreted and discussed dialogues of all times, will be of interest for students of ancient philosophy, science and philology.

Praxagoras of Cos on Arteries, Pulse and Pneuma: Fragments and Interpretation
ISBN: 9789004337428 / Starogrecki / Twarda / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The distinction that Praxagoras of Cos (4th-3rd c. BC) made between arteries and veins and his views on pulsation and pneuma are two significant turning points in the history of ideas and medicine. In this book Orly Lewis presents the fragmentary evidence for this topic and offers a fresh analysis of Praxagoras views on the soul and the functions of the heart and pneuma. In so doing, she highlights the empirical basis of Praxagoras views and his engagement with earlier medical debates and with Aristotle s physiology. The study consists of an edition and translation of the relevant fragments...

Authorship and Greek Song: Authority, Authenticity, and Performance: Studies in Archaic and Classical Greek Song, Vol. 3
ISBN: 9789004339699 / Starogrecki / Twarda / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Authorship and Greek Song is a collection of papers dealing with various aspects of authorship in the song culture of Ancient Greece. In this cultural context the idea of the poet as author of his poems is complicated by the fact that poetry in archaic Greece circulated as songs performed for a variety of audiences, both local and "global" (Panhellenic). The volume's chapters discuss questions about the importance of the singers/performers; the nature of the performance occasion; the status of the poet; the authority of the poet/author and/or that of the performer; and the issues of...

Plato and the Power of Images
ISBN: 9789004345003 / Starogrecki / Twarda / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Plato is well known both for the harsh condemnations of images and image-making poets that appear in his dialogues and for the vivid and intense imagery that he himself uses in his matchless prose. Through their resemblance to true reality, images have the power to move their viewers to action and to change themselves, but because of their distance from true reality, that power always remains problematic. Two recurrent problems addressed here are how an image resembles what it represents and how to avoid mistaking that image for what it represents. Plato and the Power of Images...

Philosophy, Rhetoric, and Sophistry in the High Roman Empire: Maximus of Tyre and Twelve Other Intellectuals
ISBN: 9789004301528 / Starogrecki / Twarda / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. How is it possible that modern scholars have labelled Maximus of Tyre, a second-century CE performer of philosophical orations, as a sophist or a 'half-philosopher', while his own self-presentation is that of a genuine philosopher? If we take Maximus' claim to philosophical authority seriously, his case can deepen our understanding of the dynamic nature of Imperial philosophy. Through a discursive analysis of twelve Imperial intellectuals alongside Maximus' dialexeis, the author proposes an interpretative framework to assess the purpose behind the representation of philosophy,...
