Original softcover. Condición: Sehr gut. 160 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical radition (IJCT). - Slightly rubbed, otherwise very good and clean. / Leicht berieben, sonst sehr gut und sauber. - Horace is a poet of surprising contradictions who lived through the most dramatic period of social and political revolution in Rome. From fighting on the losing side in the civil war, he became a confidant of his recent enemies. From humble beginnings as the son of a freedman, his poetry propelled him to the centre of the Roman establishment. Though he is often regarded as morally and politically conservative, his love poetry is played against the backdrop of a hedonistic, bisexual demi-monde. The strident voice of the nationalistic poems contrasts with the quieter, melancholic tone of the personal lyrics, with their timeless meditations on the nature of friendship and mortality. A poet of dazzling technical brilliance, Horace introduced the metrical complexities of Greek lyric poetry to the Latin language on a scale never previously contemplated. The most quoted ancient author, his voice has echoed down the ages as a wise comforter and urbane friend to poets and statesmen alike. This introduction covers all of his works and assesses the profound and lasting impact of Horace on the culture of the western world. - Philip Hills was a Fellow of Jesus College, Cambridge and was awarded the Cambridge University Hare Prize for his doctoral thesis on Horace's Fourth Book of Odes. He is now a schoolmaster at Eton College. ISBN 9781853996740 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 220.

Making extensive use of ancient sources and copiously illustrated with photographs, drawings, maps and plans, it introduces six key areas of the Roman world: history, religion, society, entertainment, Pompeii, and Herculaneum. Each chapter can be read independently, although there are many cross-references and links between them. There are also useful Appendices on the city of Rome, Roman politics, currency values, clothing, and the calendar. Review questions throughout the book challenge students to read further and reflect on some of the most important social, political and cultural issues of ancient Rome, as well as comparing them with those of their own society. In Search of the Romans is essential reading for teachers and students of Classical Civilisation. James Renshaw is Head of Classics at Colet Court and teacher of Classics at St Paul's School, London. He is the author of a companion volume, In Search of the Greeks, also published by Bristol Classical Press. ISBN 9781853997488 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 576.

He traces the often dramatic and violent events from the harsh dictatorship of Sulla (82 BC) to Cicero's own death in the massacres of Mark Antony and the Second Triumvirate (43 BC). Evidence is taken largely from the speeches and the orator's surviving letters - especially those to his close friend Atticus. - David Taylor is currently Head of the Teacher Education and Training team at Ofsted. He is the author of Roman Society (1992), also in this series. ISBN 9781853995064 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 140.
