Hardback. Foxing to end inside covers. Slight wear and tear to edges of D/J. No date. The Girl From Samos. The Arbitration. The Shearing of Clycera. Menander is one of the only first-rate Greek writers whose works perished in the dark ages. The three comedies presented in this book were recently recovered from the sands of Egypt. The give a charming picture of life in ancient Athens and illustrate an attitude toward women that is unique in the ancient world, an attitude of respect and admiration tinged with romance. For the first time in literature the passion of love is idealized and the way paved for the now conventional love-story. The present version at last makes the dramatic and human qualities of the original directly accessible to the English reader. 128 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
