Hardcover. Etat : As New. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. First Edition. But for some unobtrusive wear to the spine bottom of the printed paper dust wrapper, a fine-looking, structurally exemplar of CNI Publications 29: The Carlsberg Papyri (6). Handsomely bound in blue cloth over boards, Imperial octavor in format, with gilt lettering to spine. From the publisher's blurb, "This volume contains the edition of a new manuscript with Petese Stories from the Tebtunis temple library, dating to the period around 100 AD. The Petese Stories is a compilation of seventy stories about the virtues and vices of women. The numerous stories were compiled on the orders of the prophet Petese of Heliopolis that they may serve as a literary testament by which he would be remembered. Petese was, according to literary tradition, Plato's Egyptian instructor in astrology. The composition seems to have been modeled on the fundamental Myth of the Sun's Eye. The overall structural pattern of the text is very similar to the Arabian Nights; a frame story forms the introduction as well as the fabric into which the long series of shorter tales are woven. Among the stories preserved in the new manuscript one is particularly remarkable in that it is known from a translation by Herodotus, the so-called Pheros Story (Book II, chap. 111)." xiv [2], 1-210 pp. and then followed by a long range of full-color plates, printed on high-gloss paper.Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards.

Hardcover. Etat : New. xxix, 1462 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm. Armenian and Iranian Studies brings together select articles published in disparate journals and volumes over the past two decades. Some deal exclusively with either Armeniaca (ancient, medieval, and modern) or Iranica (pre-Islamic); in the case of the former, there is an emphasis on the sources and religious material of heroic epic and of folklore. A number of studies also deal with the visionaries of the Armenian tradition--Mashtots , Narekats i, Ch arents . In the Iranian area, there are publications on Irano-Judaica and the culture of the Parsi Zoroastrians of India. The majority of the articles here have to do with Armeno-Iranica. In some cases they serve to supplement the findings of the author s Zoroastrianism in Armenia (Harvard Iranian Series 5, 1987). Several articles deal with witchcraft and magic and relate to ancient Armenian pre- and non-Christian religion. With the same interest, the author examines some legendry belonging to the categories of belief condemned by the Armenian Church as heresy; translation and commentary on medieval lyric poetry enliven these glimpses into the life of the past. …
