Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a remarkable collection of fragments from the writings of Lucilius, a Roman satirist from the 2nd century BC and the forefather of satire as a literary genre. Lucilius's biting wit and observational humor, displayed in these fragments, provide a window into the tumul…tuous political and social landscape of ancient Rome. The author paints a vibrant and complex portrait of the era, from its cultural and literary preoccupations to its moral dilemmas. Lucilius's poetic lens, far ahead of its time, captures the vibrant spirit of a society in flux, and delivers an insightful and entertaining read for anyone interested in Roman history, literature, or satire's origins. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of early Roman tragedy, offering a comprehensive collection of fragments from four pivotal playwrights: Livius Andronicus, Naevius, Pacuvius, and Accius. It meticulously pieces together the surviving remnants of their works, providing invalua…ble insights into the birth and evolution of Roman dramatic literature. The author expertly places these playwrights within the broader context of Roman history and culture, shedding light on their lives, influences, and contributions to the literary landscape. Their works, often adaptations from Greek originals, not only entertained Roman audiences but also served as a medium for exploring Roman values, beliefs, and societal issues. Through careful analysis and insightful commentary, this book explores the thematic depth and diverse ideas present in these fragments. It examines how these playwrights grappled with universal themes of love, loss, war, and fate, while also addressing contemporary political and social concerns. Their tragedies offered a platform for commentary on Roman identity, morality, and the complexities of human nature. By reconstructing the fragmented voices of these early Roman tragedians, this book provides a deeper understanding of the foundations of Roman literature and its enduring legacy in Western culture. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Mass Market Paperback. Condición: Good. Second Edition 1st Printing. Light Creasing on Front, Rear Covers, Spine; Front, Rear Covers, Spine Lightly Chipped; Spine Slightly Cocked; Edges Lightly Soiled; Moderate Yellowing Due to Age. SUB-TITLE: With Fifteen Maps. BOOK NUMBER: A420. CONTENTS: List of Maps; Preface 1 Introduction 2… The Mediterranean and The Black Sea 3 The Atlantic 4 Indian Waters 5 The Circumnavigations of Africa 6 Europe 7 Asia 8 Africa 9 Results of Ancient Explorations 10 Imaginary Discoveries; Notes; Index. SYNOPSIS: Two eminent scholars - both professors in the University of London - collaborated in the writing of this volume, which remains a standard work on ancient travel and discovery. Concerned with the actual journeys made rather than with the geographical speculations of ancient scholars, they tell how, before Arabic expansion closed the gates of the Mediterranean Sea, men had coasted Western Europe and penetrated the continent south of the Danube and Rhine, sailed from Suez to Canton and probed deeply into Asia, and - even if they failed to circumnavigate Africa - had been as far as Sierra Leone and Port Delgado. They describe, too, the objects of these journeys, the crude equipment of sailors, and the scanty geographical knowledge on which they proceeded. In this "Hakluyt" of the ancient world one reads - often with surprise - of Greeks in India and Romans in China, of the account of the source of the Nile given by one Diogenes, and of Pytheas's extended visit to the boorish inhabitants of Britain. And it is clear that the Great Age of Discovery, in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, was heavily indebted to these more ancient explorers. Max Cary, D.Litt. was born at Liverpool in 1881 and educated at Liverpool College and Oxford. After a year in Athens and three years as a lecturer in Greek at Birmingham University he was appointed Reader in Ancient History in the University of London in 1908. He was appointed Professor of Ancient History in 1937 and Professor Emeritus on his retirement in 1946. He edited the seven-volume History of the Greek and Roman World and was joint editor of The Oxford Classical Dictionary. Among his books are The Geographical Background of Greek and Roman History, Life and Thought in the Greek and Roman World (with T. J. Haarhoff), and a standard one-volume History of Rome. He also contributed articles to The Cambridge Ancient History and numerous journals. He died in 1957. Eric Herbert Warmington, F.R.Hist.S., was born at Cambridge in 1898 and educated at the Perse School and Peterhouse. After taking a "Double First" in classics and winning the Le Bas English Prize at Cambridge he became Reader in Ancient History at King's College, London, in 1925, and ten years later was appointed Professor of Classics at Birkbeck College, London-a post which he still holds. Besides being Vice-Master of his college since 1954 Professor Warmington has held several senior posts within London University and has been an editor of the Loeb Classical Library for many years. Among his publications are The Commerce between the Roman Empire and India (1928), Greek Geography (1934), Africa in Ancient and Medieval Times (1936), and Remains of Old Latin, in four volumes. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. Germano Facetti (ilustrador).
