Broschiert / Paperback. Zustand: Gut. 28 Seiten / p. 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). - Kleberest und Etikettreste, ansonsten tadelloser Zustand / Glue residue and label remnants, otherwise impeccable condition - ATHENS' GREATNESS as a thalassocracy is traced to its myth of Prince Theseus, the young hero who saves the youth of Athens from years of miserable foreign entrapment and death at the hands of a monster. The monster broods in a wealthy kingdom across the Aegean Sea, ruled by King Minos from his palace on Crete. Subject states, Athens included, owe him periodic tribute in the form of youths and maidens who are introduced into the fabled labyrinth, where they encounter the fatal half-human, half-bull creature called the Minotaur. When the time comes to send another group of victims to Crete, Theseus volunteers to go, assuring his father King Aegeus that he will put an end to Minos' tyranny and return home safely. With the help of Minos' daughter Ariadne, the bold young leader succeeds in killing the monster, overthrows Minos, burns the palace, and sails for Athens with the princess. Meanwhile, Aegeus looks for his son's safe return, to be signaled by a white sail in place of the black sail of his departure. But Theseus fails to change the sail, and in despair his father leaps from a cliff into the sea, leaving the throne of Athens to Theseus. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550.…

Hardcover. x, 236 p.; 23 cm. [title continues] or the scriptural and the sacerdotal doctrine of the Lord's Supper. -- "Having now answered everything in the `Charge,' which seemed to require and answer, I shall only, in conclusion, express a hope, that no future `Charges' of Anglican bishops may appear in favour of the most prominent points in the faith and worship of the Roman Church--or of its idolatry, heresy, and sacrilege--for if they do, having at this moment before me the opinions respecting the foreign Reformed Churches of Archbishops Whitgift and Wake; and of Bishops Jewel, Andrews, Hall, Burnet, and Tomline; and of Hooker also, and Sherlock, Clagett, and Bingham; I am impressed with the conviction, that the most serious danger will, in such case, arise to Episcopacy in England: and much hurt and damage also to souls, for whose salvation the same bishops are solemnly pledged to labour; and, therefore, with all faithful diligence `to banish and drive away all errors and strange doctrines, contrary to God's Word.' [Book of Common Prayer, form of consecration of bishops]" (p. 236) Good ex-lib. orig. violet cloth.…

hardcover. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…
