Reprint. Zustand: Gut. pp. 103-126, suppl. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of the ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - With dedication by the author to W. H. - Author's name handwritten on cover, otherwise good and very clean. - From the text: To read them is torture . So pronounced the influential, if sometimes caustic, literary historian, Ernst Robert Curtins, of the biblical epics of Late Antiquity. One possible cause for the frustration of readers like Curtins with biblical epics, whether written in Late Antiquity or later, is the all too common tendency to study them as though they were composed in isolation from each other. This paper contends that biblical epics can be better appreciated if they are read against the backdrop of the long and dynamic literary tradition to which they belong. Clearly one s delight in A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum is refined and deepened if one is also familiar with influential comedies like Plautus Menaechmi or Shakespeare s Comedy of Errors. Something of the same sort of illumination from within a tradition can be shed in reverse, as it were. Readers of Plautus who have recently seen the Broadway show or the film will actually have difficulty reading the latter without constant reference to the former. Such standard and self-evident considerations of what we might call the poetics of tradition can and should be applied to the reading of the biblical epic. - Suppl.: Bibiliography to the text, 3 p.

Paperback. Zustand: Sehr gut. XIV, 248 p. Mit Verfasserwidmung im Vorsatz / With author dedication in endpaper. - Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Ein tadelloses Exemplar / a pristine copy. - Reformer of the church, biblical theologian, and German translator of the Bible Martin Luther had the highest respect for stories attributed to the ancient Greek author Aesop. He assigned them a status second only to the Bible and regarded them as wiser than "the harmful opinions of all the philosophers." Throughout his life, Luther told and retold Aesop s fables and strongly supported their continued use in Lutheran schools. In this volume, Carl Springer builds on the textual foundation other scholars have laid and provides the first book in English to seriously consider Luther s fascination with Aesop s fables. He looks at which fables Luther knew, how he understood and used them, and why he valued them. Springer provides a variety of cultural contexts to help scholars and general readers gain a deeper understanding of Luther s appreciation of Aesop. / Contents Abbreviations Preface 1.
