This collection presents 19 interconnected studies on the language,
history, exegesis, and cultural setting of Greek epic and dramatic
poetic texts ("Text") and their afterlives ("Intertext") in
Antiquity. Spanning texts from Hittite archives to Homer to Greek
tragedy and comedy to Vergil to Celsus, the studies here were all
written by friends and colleagues of Margalit Finkelberg who are
experts in their particular fields, and who have all been
influenced by her work. The papers offer close readings of
individual lines and discussion of widespread cultural phenomena.
Readers will encounter Hittite precedents to the Homeric poems,
characters in ancient epic analysed by modern cognitive theory, the
use of Homer in Christian polemic, tragic themes of love and
murder, a history of the Sphinx, and more. Text and Intertext in
Greek Epic and Drama offers a selection of fascinating essays
exploring Greek epic, drama, and their reception and adaption by
other ancient authors, and will be of interest to anyone working on
Greek literature.
How was the future of Rome, both near and distant in time, imagined
by different populations living under the Roman Empire? It emerges
from this collection of essays by a distinguished international
team of scholars that Romans, Greeks, Jews and Christians had
strikingly different answers to that question, revealing profound
differences in their conceptions of history and historical time,
the purpose of history, the meaning of written words and oral
traditions. It is also argued that practically no one living under
Rome's rule, including the Romans themselves, did not think about
the question in one form or another.
First published in 1988. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor &
Francis, an informa company.
The idea of the Seven Wonders of the World is well-known, but how
many of us could name all seven of them? And do they even exist?
The authors seek to set the record straight with a portrayal of
each wonder in the context in which it was built. The facts and
background are brought together to establish the archaeology and
location of each wonder. Materials from ancient sources and the
results of modern excavations suggest why particular places and
objects have been taken as the touchstone of human achievement.
The center of gravity in Roman studies has shifted far from the
upper echelons of government and administration in Rome or the
Emperor's court to the provinces and the individual. The
multi-disciplinary studies presented in this volume reflect the
turn in Roman history to the identities of ethnic groups and even
single individuals who lived in Rome's vast multinational empire.
The purpose is less to discover another element in the Roman
Empire's 'success' in governance than to illuminate the variety of
individual experience in its own terms. The chapters here,
reflecting a wide spectrum of professional expertise, range across
the many cultures, languages, religions and literatures of the
Roman Empire, with a special focus on the Jews as a test-case for
the larger issues. This title is also available as Open Access on
Cambridge Core.

Structures in contact with fluid flow, whether natural or man-made,
are inevitably subject to flow-induced forces and flow-induced
vibration: from plant leaves to traffic signs and to more
substantial structures, such as bridge decks and heat exchanger
tubes. Under certain conditions the vibration may be self-excited,
and it is usually referred to as an instability. These
instabilities and, more specifically, the conditions under which
they arise are of great importance to designers and operators of
the systems concerned because of the significant potential to cause
damage in the short term. Such flow-induced instabilities are the
subject of this book. In particular, the flow-induced instabilities
treated in this book are associated with cross-flow, that is, flow
normal to the long axis of the structure. The book treats a
specific set of problems that are fundamentally and technologically
important: galloping, vortex-shedding oscillations under lock-in
conditions and rain-and-wind-induced vibrations, among others.
The eight hundred years between the first Roman conquests and the
conquest of Islam saw a rich, constantly shifting blend of
languages and writing systems, legal structures, religious
practices and beliefs in the Near East. While the different ethnic
groups and cultural forms often clashed with each other, adaptation
was as much a characteristic of the region as conflict. This
volume, emphasizing the inscriptions in many languages from the
Near East, brings together mutually informative studies by scholars
in diverse fields. Together, they reveal how the different
languages, peoples and cultures interacted, competed with, tried to
ignore or were influenced by each other, and how their
relationships evolved over time. It will be of great value to those
interested in Greek and Roman history, Jewish history and Near
Eastern studies.

The first volume of the Corpus Inscriptionum Iudaeae/Palaestinae
covers the inscriptions of Jerusalem from the time of Alexander to
the Arab conquest in all the languages used for inscriptions during
those times: Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek, Latin, Syrian, and Armenian.
The approximately 1,100 texts have been arranged in categories
based on three epochs: up to the destruction of Jerusalem in the
year 70, to the beginning of the 4th century, and to the end of
Byzantine rule in the 7th century.
In this 2001 book Jonathan Price attempts to demonstrate that
Thucydides consciously viewed and presented the Peloponnesian War
in terms of a condition of civil strife - stasis, in Greek.
Thucydides defines stasis as a set of symptoms indicating an
internal disturbance in both individuals and states. This
diagnostic method, in contrast to all other approaches in
antiquity, allows an observer to identify stasis even when the
combatants do not or cannot openly acknowledge the nature of their
conflict. The words and actions which Thucydides chooses for his
narrative meet his criteria for stasis: the speeches in the History
represent the breakdown of language and communication
characteristic of internal conflict, and the zeal for victory led
to acts of unusual brutality and cruelty, and overall disregard for
genuinely Hellenic customs, codes of morality and civic loyalty.
Viewing the Peloponnesian War as a destructive internal war had
profound consequences for Thucydides' historical vision.
