Martial: Liber Spectaculorum (Hardcover): Kathleen M. Coleman Martial: Liber Spectaculorum (Hardcover)
Kathleen M. Coleman
R5,132 Discovery Miles 51 320 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book is the first full-scale edition of the so-called Liber spectaculorum by Martial. A comprehensive introduction addresses the role of epigram in commemorating monuments and occasions, the connection between spectacle and imperial panegyric in Martial's oeuvre, characteristics of the collection, possible circumstances of composition and "publication," transmission of the text, and related issues. Each epigram is followed by an apparatus criticus, an English translation, and a detailed commentary on linguistic, literary, and historical matters, adducing extensive evidence from epigraphy and art as well as literary sources. The book is accompanied by four concordances, five tables, two maps, 30 plates, and an appendix.

Albert's Anthology (Hardcover): Kathleen M. Coleman Albert's Anthology (Hardcover)
Kathleen M. Coleman
R555 Discovery Miles 5 550 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Albert's Anthology comprises 76 brief and informal reflections on a line or two of Greek or Latin poetry-and a few prose quotations and artistic objects-composed by colleagues and students of Albert Henrichs on the occasion of his retirement in Spring 2017. Appointed Professor of Greek and Latin at Harvard University at the age of thirty in 1973 and Eliot Professor of Greek in 1984, Professor Henrichs has devoted his scholarly career to Greek literature and religion-especially his favorite Greek god, Dionysos-and to incomparably enthusiastic teaching of countless students at both the graduate and undergraduate level. His scholarship and dedication are legendary. This volume is offered to a brilliant and beloved scholar with gratitude, affection, and respect.

Images for Classicists (Hardcover): Kathleen M. Coleman Images for Classicists (Hardcover)
Kathleen M. Coleman
R558 Discovery Miles 5 580 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

How did the Greeks translate tales into images? Why do artistic depictions of ancient myths sometimes "contradict" the textual versions that we think of as canonical? What caused the Romans to be anxious about decorated ceilings? Can numismatic images solve problems in Augustan politics or explain the provenance of the Warren Cup? How are the curators of ancient artifacts to supply the high-quality digital images that scholars need in order to answer these questions? And how are text-based scholars to make productive use of them? Images have their own semantic language, and their survival, usually divorced from their original context, makes it hard to interpret them with nuance and sophistication. Images for Classicists starts from the premise that the visual and textual records from antiquity are indispensable complements to one another and demonstrates some of the ways in which text and image, taken together, can complicate and enrich our understanding of ancient culture. While attempting to dissolve the distinctions between text- and artifact-based scholars, it also tries to bridge the gap between academy and museum by exploring the challenges that the digital revolution poses to curators and sketching some of the ways in which image-based collections may be deployed in the future.
