paperback. Etat : 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.

Routledge, London / NewYork, 2000. X,338p. Paperback. Font cover and first pages slightly dog's eared. Still a nice copy. 'P. acknowledges some impact from theoretical work on performance, narratology, reader-response, reception, New Historicism and gender, but the impact is implicit is one of his strengths. Two others are his elegant amalgam of academic and conversational style and his sense of humour. (.) What drives P. is the texts, approached with scholarship, reasonable cynicism, and good humour. Some principles emerge. We should note what the author expected to be sayable without alienating the audience, test comic texts by asking how little must be true for a joke to work, expect authors to cater for different reactions, look for how the audience thought, attend to context, and avoid hermetically sealing 'funny' from 'serious'. (.). P.'s texts are diverse and, though rhetoric is a common factor, the manipulation of reality in Thucydides or Plutarch are rather different from those in forensic oratory, comedy, or tragedy.' (C.J. TUPLIN in The Classical Review (New Series), 2001, pp.322-323). From the library of Prof. Carl Deroux. N° de réf. du vendeur 50140

Paperback. Etat : New. Our knowledge of Greek history rests largely on literary texts - not merely historians (especially Herodotus, Thucylides and Xenephon), but also tragedies, comedies, speeches, biographies and philosophical works. These texts are themselves among the most skilled and highly wrought productions of a brilliant rhetorical culture. How is the historian to use them? This book addresses this problem by taking a series of extended test-cases, and discussing how we should and should not try to exploit the texts. In some instances we can investigate 'what really happened', and the ways in which the texts manipulate, remould, or colour it according to their own rhetorical strategies; in others the most illuminating aspect may be those strategies themselves, and what they tell us about the culture - how it figured questions of sex and gender, politics, citizenship and the city, the law and the courts and how wars happen. Literary Texts and the Greek Historian concentrates on Athens in the second half of the fifth-century, when many of the principal genres came together, but includes some examples from earlier (Aeschylus ^Oresteia) and later (including Aristotles poetics). Literary Texts and the Greek Historian examines the range of responses to these texts and suggests new ways in which literary criticism can illuminate the society from which these texts sprang.
