Soft cover. Condición: New. 116 pages ; illustrations (some color) ; 24 cm. Includes Greek or Latin texts of inscriptions, with English translation. 117-138 pages of plates. The present book is the first complete edition of the 24 Greek and Latin inscriptions in the Collection of Classical Antiquities and the Victoria Museum of Uppsala University. It contains an introduction that discusses the various types of inscriptions represented in the collections, their probable provenance and their history as part of the Uppsala collections. After the introduction follows the actual edition, which consists of a new reading of text of each inscription, followed (where possible) by an English translation, a summary of its physical and palaeographical features, and a line-by-line commentary. The commentary explains each text with regard to its contents and discusses points of linguistic, phraseologic, and onomastic interest. Inscriptions of particular interest are provided with separate introductions that place them in a wider historical and social context. While the commentary is intended to be useful both to specialists in epigraphy as well as to the general classicist, it also aims at providing such information that may interest the general public. The book is concluded by full indices, a concordance of previous editions, and plates of each inscription.…

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Versified inscriptions from the city of Rome date from the Republican period through to late antiquity. An edition of the city of Rome meeting modern standards has yet to be produced. The contributions provide individual analyses of linguistic and content-related aspects of the texts and media relating to verse inscriptions from the city of Rome. In addition, some contributions address methodological issues such as social groups or modes of presentation, or that explore the prospects of digital resources, particularly for a city characterised by multiculturalism and multilingualism such as Rome. Not unlike the rest of the empire, funerary inscriptions in verse dominated in Rome; since Late Antiquity, however, other types of text have evidently become increasingly popular. In the Republic and Late Antiquity, such inscribed poems, with or without a prose framework, were more of an elite phenomenon, whereas epigrams in the Imperial period were a popular text type for broad sections of the population. In addition to analysing various aspects of textual developments over the centuries in Rome, the volume offers an edition of 40 carmina from Rome, which constitute a small part of the material Bengt E. Thomasson (1926-2025) had prepared in anticipation of a planned CIL volume.…

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - A delightful look at the epic literary history of the short, poetic genre of the epigramFrom Nestor's inscribed cup to tombstones, bathroom walls, and Twitter tweets, the ability to express oneself concisely and elegantly, continues to be an important part of literary history unlike any other. This book examines the entire history of the epigram, from its beginnings as a purely epigraphic phenomenon in the Greek world, where it moved from being just a note attached to physical objects to an actual literary form of expression, to its zenith in late 1st century Rome, and further through a period of stagnation up to its last blooming, just before the beginning of the Dark Ages.A Companion to Ancient Epigram offers the first ever full-scale treatment of the genre from a broad international perspective. The book is divided into six parts, the first of which covers certain typical characteristics of the genre, examines aspects that are central to our understanding of epigram, and discusses its relation to other literary genres. The subsequent four parts present a diachronic history of epigram, from archaic Greece, Hellenistic Greece, and Latin and Greek epigrams at Rome, all the way up to late antiquity, with a concluding section looking at the heritage of ancient epigram from the Middle Ages up to modern times.\* Provides a comprehensive overview of the history of the epigram\* The first single-volume book to examine the entire history of the genre\* Scholarly interest in Greek and Roman epigram has steadily increased over the past fifty years\* Looks at not only the origins of the epigram but at the later literary traditionA Companion to Ancient Epigram will be of great interest to scholars and students of literature, world literature, and ancient and general history. It will also be an excellent addition to the shelf of any public and university library.…

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - In this volume, Henriksén offers the first extensive commentary on Book 9 of the Epigrams of M. Valerius Martialis (ca. AD 40-104), who published fifteen books of Epigrams during the last two decades of the 1st century AD. Firmly established in a literary tradition that had begun in Greece more than half a millennium earlier, Martial's work represents the height of the development of ancient epigram. Conscious of his own times andsociety, Martial often engages current genres and his great Roman predecessors, such as Catullus, Vergil, and Ovid, in an intertextual dialogue.First published in AD 94/95, Book 9 is the last book in the corpus of Martial to have been published in the reign of the emperor Domitian. While it presents the reader with the epigrammatist's characteristic variety of subjects drawn from contemporary Roman society and everyday life, it also contains a patently higher number of poems focusing on and eulogizing Domitian than any other book in the Epigrams. Unlike those of Book 8, the panegyrics in Book 9 are mixed with satirical andobscene epigrams, and the panegyrical tone is intensified. Book 9 also provides a conclusion to the large cycle on Domitian's Second Pannonian War that extends over Books 7, 8, and 9, the three books that have been termed Martial's 'Kaisertriade'.A thoroughly revised and expanded edition of Henriksén's published thesis, the book consists of an introduction discussing the date, characteristics, structure, and themes of Book 9, followed by a detailed commentary on each of the 105 poems, which places them in their literary, social, and historical context.…
