Kurt Latte - Opuscula inedita (German, Hardcover, 1. Aufl.., 1st Ed.)

Kurt Latte (1891-1964) was one of the most prominent German classicists of the twentieth century whose numerous publications partly written while Latte was being persecuted and deprived of his basic civic rights by the Nazis will remain influential for many generations to come. The present volume makes available some lectures and papers ("Sternsagen"; "Der Hades der Griechen"; "RAmerlegenden und Romgedanke"; "Wandel des Glaubens in der Kaiserzeit"; "Geist und Macht. Gedanken zum 2000. Todestag Ciceros"; "Neronische Dichtung") together with two chapters of a history of Roman Literature ("Ovid"; "Epigonen") all of which he had planned to publish, but had not been able to due to the difficulties of the time. The volume is introduced by words spoken by two of his pupils, Professor G. Patzig and Professor A. Dihle, at a ceremony held in GAttingen in memory of Latte forty years after in his death, together with a survey of the part of his left papers preserved in GAttingen and a list of his lectures given there from 1945 to 1957.
