Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

This is a volume of essays on ancient (and modern) Greek myth, culture, society, and literature. It covers the work of almost thirty years and is inspired by a lifetime's teaching experience with university and mature students. Some of the essays are already counted as 'classics' and a number have not been published before.
The book represents all the knowledge we currently have on ocean
circulation. It presents an up-to-date summary of the state of the
science relating to the role of the oceans in the physical climate
system.
The book is structured to guide the reader through the wide
range of world ocean circulation experiment (WOCE) science in a
consistent way. Cross-references between contributors have been
added, and the book has a comprehensive index and unified reference
list.
The book is simple to read, at the undergraduate level. It was
written by the best scientists in the world who have collaborated
to carry out years of experiments to better understand ocean
circulation.
Presents in situ and remote observations with worldwide
coverage; Provides theoretical understanding of processes within
the ocean and at its boundaries to other Earth System components;
and Allows for simulating ocean and climate processes in the past,
present and future using a hierarchy of physical-biogeochemical
models

The late Sir Arthur Pickard-Cambridge devoted his life to the study
of all aspects of the Greek theatre. The first edition of his
authoritative work The Dramatic Festivals of Athens was published
posthumously in 1953; the second, fully revised and updated by J.
Gould and D. M. Lewis, was issued in 1968. It is now made available
once again to students and scholars, and this latest reissue
includes a new Supplement which brings the evidence fully up to
date. Generously illustrated, the work is unique in its full
presentation of the evidence - literary, epigraphic, and
archaeological - on which any discussion of the dramatic festivals
must be based, as well as in its treatment of the difficulties of
interpretation. '...(this book) is a work of the first importance:
not only does it contain practically everything that is known about
the Festivals themselves, but the author has dealt at great length
with the Actors, Costume, the Chorus, the Audience, and the Artists
of Dionysus... It does indeed constitute the most authoritative and
up-to-date record of this subject yet produced in English.' Greece

John Gould's family first settled in Maine in 1618, so by the time
he came along in the early 20th century, the Gould's were well
steeped in the vernacular of the region, and his first inheritance
was the turned-around, honed-down, and tuned-up language of his
farming neighbors who seldom strayed beyond the village store.
Maine Lingo was first compiled in 1975, when TV, radio, and other
leveling media had begun to seriously erode regional speech
distinctions, and this dictionary will furnish anyone interested in
Maine or regional dialects with the terminologies of regular folks,
from lobstermen to farmers to woodsmen. Altogether it is a fun and
fascinating collection of lore, humor, and straight information
that will have you able to tell your billdad from your wazzat in no
time flat.
