Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Reissue. Minor shelf wear. Else a bright, clean copy. Pindar's Pythian Eleven is a miniature masterpiece: a poem praising a young athlete which presents a vivid and important account of the Agamemnon legend. Yet it contains so many difficulties (of text, metre, dating and interpretation) that even Wilamowitz regarded it as one of Pindar's most obscure poems. This 2007 edition (the first full-scale treatment that the poem had ever received) provides answers to the problems that have prevented proper appreciation of the work. In addition to the full introduction and commentary, the book also has a text based on re-examination of the manuscripts, detailed metrical discussion, and a translation.…

Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 2018. 1st paperback ed. XII,211p. Paperback. 'The book is structured around three ideas based on ancient claims about Stesichorus: first, that Stesichorus is 'supremely Homeric' (.); second, that there is more to his narrative technique than Quintilian?s remark (Stesichorus) 'is redundant and diffuse' ('redundat atque effunditur', Inst. 10.1.62); finally, that even though a character in a fifth-century comedy declares that 'it is old- fashioned to sing Stesichorus? works' (.), the poet?s influence can be traced throughout centuries, from the mid-sixth century BCE to our days. (.). There is much to be gained from this learned volume, but we are still some distance away from encountering the world of the poet.' (PAULINE LEVEN on the 1st ed. in Bryn Mawr Classical Review, 2016.05.48).…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Produced in Athens during the fifth century BC, the tragedies of Sophocles are a high point in world literature, vividly depicting unforgettable characters confronted with emotional crises, moral dilemmas, and the inscrutable ways of the gods. This volume examines Sophocles' reputation as a dramatic poet both in his own day and later in antiquity, considering how it was that some of his plays survived from his time to ours. It investigates the qualities of those plays, focusing on key aspects of Sophoclean dramaturgy such as stagecraft, narrative, rhetoric, and heroism. And it incorporates within its discussion not just the seven plays that survive in full, but those major fragments discovered in recent years which shed so much light on Sophocles' extraordinary ability as a poet and a dramatist. All Greek is translated, making this volume accessible to anyone with an interest in one of the greatest playwrights of all time.…
