Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. Illustrated. Cloth, dj. Minor shelf wear; residue from removed sticker on rear jacket panel. Else a bright, clean copy. The great plague of Athens that began in 430 BCE had an enormous effect on the imagination of its literary artists and on the social imagination of the city as a whole. In this book, Professor Mitchell-Boyask studies the impact of the plague on Athenian tragedy early in the 420s and argues for a significant relationship between drama and the development of the cult of the healing god Asclepius in the next decade, during a period of war and increasing civic strife. The Athenian decision to locate their temple for Asclepius adjacent to the Theater of Dionysus arose from deeper associations between drama, healing and the polis that were engaged actively by the crisis of the plague. The book also considers the representation of the plague in Thucydides' History as well as the metaphors generated by that representation which recur later in the same work.…

Paperback. Zustand: Sehr gut. Companions to Greek and Roman Tragedy. 157 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Very good and clean. - Sehr gut und sauber. - The Eumenides, the concluding drama in Aeschylus sole surviving trilogy, the Oresteia, is not only one of the most admired Greek tragedies, but also one of the most controversial. It stands at the crux of controversies over the relationship between the fledgling democracy of Athens and the dramas it produced, and over the representation of women in the theatre and their implied status in Athenian society. The play enacts the trial of Agamemnons son Orestes, who had been ordered under threat of punishment by the god Apollo to murder his mother Clytemnestra, who herself had earlier killed Agamemnon. Orestes, hounded by the Eumenides, travels Erst to Delphi to obtain ritual purgation of his mothers blood, and then to Athens to seek the help of Athena, who decides that an impartial jury of Athenians should decide the matter. Aeschylus thus presents a drama that shows a growing awareness of the importance of free will through the mythologized institution of the first jury trial. -- Robin Mitchell-Boyask is Professor of Classics, Temple University. He has published widely on Greek tragedy. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550.…

paperback. 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.…
