Zustand: MOLTO BUONO. The eighth century dawned on a Greek world that had remained substantially unchanged during the centuries of stagnation known as the Dark Age. This book is a study of the economic and cultural upheaval that shook mainland Greece and the Aegean area in the eighth century, and the role that poetry played in this upheaval. Using tools from political and economic anthropology, David Tandy argues that between about 800 and 700 B. C. , a great transformation of dominant economic institutions took place involving wrenching adjustments in the way status and wealth were distributed within the Greek communities. Tandy explores the economic organization of preindustrial societies, both ancient and contemporary, to shed light on the Greek experience. He argues that the sudden shift in Greek economic formations led to new social behaviors and to new social structures such as the polis, itself a by-product of economic change. Unraveling the dialectic between the material record and epic poetry, Tandy shows that the epic tradition mirrored these new social behaviors and that it portrayed the stresses that economic change brought to the ancient Aegean world. Tandy brings in comparative evidence from other small-scale communities beset by changes, spotlighting the specific plight of one community, Ascra in Boeotia, on whose behalf Hesiod sang his Works and Days. The result is a lively, moving account of a human dilemma that, many centuries later, is all too familiar. cm.16x23,5, pp.XII,296, alcune figg., cartine e tabelle in bn.nt., Berkeley-Los Angeles-London, University of California Press cm.16x23,5, pp.XII,296, alcune figg., cartine e tabelle in bn.nt., leg.ed.in t.tela, sopraccop.fig. leg.ed.in t.tela, sopraccop.fig.

Zustand: Gut. XV, 296 p.: Ill., Maps. 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). - Schutzumschlag berieben und am Buchrücken etwas bestoßen, Fußschnitt etwas verschmutzt, sonst guter Zustand / dust jacket rubbed and a bit scuffed at spine, bottom edge a bit soiled, otherwise good condition. - The emergence of the early Greek world of the eighth century B.C. appears startling in contrast to the "darkness" of the several preceding centuries, centuries about which we know little. David Tandy investigates the roles of the economy and of poetry in that emergence, using tools from political and economic anthropology to argue that the so-called miracle of the polis was fundamentally exclusive and involved enormous human and cultural costs, that wrenching adjustments in the way status and wealth were distributed within the Greek communities led to this peculiarly Western political institution. The eighth-century release from economic stagnation brought great change to the Aegean world, as once again goods moved within and between communities. By analyzing demographic surges and the colonization movement, Tandy explores the economic organization of preindustrial societies, both ancient and contemporary, to shed light on the Greek experience. He argues that the sudden shift in Greek economic formations led to new social behaviors as the polis, itself a byproduct of economic change, began to coalesce. The newly emerged economic elite introduced or reemphasized a variety of "tools of exclusion." In 800 B.C. status attracted wealth through the custom of gift-giving, and status was reinforced by the bestowing of favors from high status to low. By the end of the century, wealth, derived from the new trading practices and unobligated by gift-giving customs, became the attractor of status. The polis came into existence when a newly institutionalized political and economic high-status core undertook to exclude the peripheral members of the community. The epic was among the most important forms of exclusion, for its grand performance, like other displays of gift- giving and feasts, became a strategy to obfuscate the true extent of change and of the profoundly detrimental effect that the rise of the new elites and institutions had on many people. Bringing in evidence from other primitive communities similarly beset by changes from colonial rule, the book moves from broad strokes to fine, from the emergence, in general, of the Greek communities from the stagnant Dark Age to the specific plight of one community, Ascra in Boeotia, on whose behalf Hesiod sang his Works and Days. The result is a lively, informative, moving account of a human dilemma that, while centuries old, is all too familiar. / CONTENTS LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS / PREFACE / Chapter 1.
