Condition: Neu. The Letters of Sir George Cornewall Lewis to Karl Otfried Müller (1828-1839). Edited with a Commentary by William M. Calder III, R. Scott Smith, and John Vaio. Dieser Band ist die erste Edition von 55 Briefen des englischen Griechenfreundes, Staatsbeamten, Finanz-, Innen- und Kriegsministers Sir George Cornewall…Lewis (1806-1863) an den großen Göttinger Gräzisten Karl Otfried Müller (1797-1840). Sie dokumentieren die entscheidende Rolle der deutschen Wissenschaft bei der Etablierung einer seriösen humanistischen Bildung im England des 19. Jahrhunderts. Lewis übersetzte Müllers "Die Dorier" und überzeugte ihn, sein epochemachendes Werk "Geschichte der altgriechischen Literatur" auf Englisch zu schreiben. Diese Bücher übten einen beachtlichen Einfluß unter den englischsprachigen Völkern aus und hatten unter anderem Oscar Wildes "Dorian Gray" und Milman Parrys Verwendung serbokroatischer Parallelen zur mündlichen Gestaltung der homerischen Epen zu Folge. Lewis bereitete die Engländer in vielerlei Hinsicht auf den Einfluß Eduard Fraenkels vor, der ein Jahrhundert später die Beschäftigung mit den antiken Klassikern in England von einem Zeitvertreib für Gentlemen in einen Beruf verwandeln sollte.

I do not mean that he can read Russian books He can also read unpublished eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Russian documents; that is. he controls and can exploit archival material. His book on early Rostovtzeff is not only of permanent value because of the unique information it therefore contains It is written in English prose that often exceeds what one finds in native speakers. This book, an English translation with expanded documentation of an earlier (1991) Dutch original, is more Rezeptionsgeschichte than Wissenschaftsgeschichte. - Wikipedia: William Musgrave Calder III (* 3.

Reprint. Condition: Gut. pp. 53-62, 2 pl. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - 1st page torn, folded crosswise, 1 note, otherwise clean. - From the text: At the Greater Dionysia of March 431 Euripides revived an Aeschylean theme of s…ome 50 years before. His Philocletes appeared as second play in a tetralogy with Medea, Diktys, and the satyr play Theristai (MedArg), and placed third. The tragedy is of peculiar interest. It has a certain date. It is known to come between the Aeschylean (479-473) and Sophoclean (409) versions of the same tale. It influenced later art, was parodied by Aristophanes and Aristotle, and became a favorite of Plutarch and Dio Chrysostomos. Sufficient evidence, literary and archaeological, survives for confident reconstruction, and there is an intriguing riddle. Wilamowitz declared: "Sophokles hat von Euripides nichts kenntliches entnommen. Was Wilamowitz right? - Wikipedia: William Musgrave Calder III (born September 3, 1932 in Brooklyn, New York) is an American classical philologist. His specialty is the history of classical studies.

Softcover. Condition: Fine. The volume gathers for the first time thirty-five scattered articles by Calder published 1958-1998 concerned with the political content of selected tragedies and their staging from Thespis to Seneca. An historian seeks to see tragedies in context, whether Periclesâ Athens or Neroâs Rome. He regularly…contests the opinio communis. Eumenides protests against Periclean reform. Zeus in Prometheus is the tyrant Demos. Kreon not Antigone is the hero of Antigone. Neoptolemos in Philoctetes is a clever deceiver from the start. Sophocles Oinomaos was the inspiration of the East Pediment at Olympia. Atreus in Senecaâs Thyestes is the model whom Nero is urged to follow. The usual size of the Senecan chorus was three, never fifteen. Thespisâ chorus was six. A careful index locorum antiquorum ends the volume and makes the material easily accessible.; Spudasmata Band 104; 431 pages.

Haase. - Cover slightly bumped, Author's name handwritten on cover, otherwise clean. - From the text: Perhaps… I ought first to say a word about credentials. I first published on Wissenschaftsgeschichte in 1966. I wrote while on a Guggenheim-Fulbright in Berlin a brief history of classical studies in the United States in German and for Germans. It was not published in a classical journal but in one devoted to American studies. Since then I have produced, alone and with colleagues, some 25 books and some 150 articles and reviews on the subject. During these some thirty years I have watched a steady rise of interest in the field, particularly in Europe (especially Germany, Holland and Italy) but also in the New World. - Wikipedia: William Musgrave Calder III (* 3.

Reprint, stapled. Condition: Gut. pp.1-9. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of the ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - With dedication of the author to W. Haase. - Author's name handwritten on cover, otherwise good and clean. - From the text: I was programmed to like G…ermans. My maternal grandfather was a German. His name was Friedrich Georg Fischer. His parents had emigrated from Hamburg to New York. He became president of the New York branch of Norddeutsche Lloyd. Later he became executive vice-president of W. R. Grace. Because his name was not Grace he could not become president. [.] Wolfgang Schindler introduced me to Werner Krenkel, who wasted no time. I was soon invited to lecture at Rostock and nearby Greifswald. My lecture was purest Anglo-Saxon positivism without a hint of politics. It was concerned with the composition of Seneca, Troades,1 and promptly published by Werner Krenkel. In spring semester 1968 the miracle occurred. Due to the tact and diplomacy of Werner Krenkel, himself not a Genosse, an American, a Spätkapitalist kurz vor dem Zusammenbruch, became guest professor for classics and American studies at Rostock, the first American guest-professor in the DDR. [.] My whole Senecabild I owe the DDR. Life under Stalinism provided the best parallel possible to life under Nero. Senecas goal was to survive in an impossible situation. A Stoic must find out by what rules the kosmos was run and abide by them. That is: informed resignation. The alternative was selfdestruction. Without the DDR my work on Seneca would have remained sterile positivism and Wortphilologie or the petulant Puritanism that characterizes his Western liberal often female critics, that is persons with no experience whatever in the brutality of amoral totalitarianism.

Condition: Neu. Collected papers on the Politics and Staging of Greco-Roman Tragedy. Edited by R. Scott Smith. Der Band versammelt 35 Aufsätze aus den Jahren 1958 bis 1998, die sich mit dem politischen Inhalt ausgewählter Tragödien und mit ihren Inszenierungen befassen. Als Historiker fragt Calder nach dem Kontext der Tragödien.… Meist bestreitet er die opinio communis. Die Eumeniden sind ein Protest gegen die Perikleische Reform. Der Zeus des Prometheus steht für den Tyrannen Demos. Nicht Antigone, sondern Kreon ist der Held der Antigone. Der Neoptolemos des Philoktet ist von Anfang an ein raffinierter Betrüger. Der Ostgiebel in Olympia ist von Sophokles' Oinomaos inspiriert. Atreus in Senecas Thyestes ist das Vorbild, dem Nero sich genötigt fühlt zu folgen. Der Chor bei Seneca bestand meist aus drei, niemals aus 15 Choreuten. Thespis' Chor bestand aus sechs Choreuten. Fehler in den Erstveröffentlichungen wurden korrigiert und gelegentliche Hinweise auf neuere Literatur wurden hinzugefügt. Ein detaillierter index locorum antiquorum schließt den Band ab. 2. Auflage.

Reprint. Condition: Gut. pp. 203-214. From the estate of the classical philologist Ernst Vogt, editor-in-chief of the journals *Rheinisches Museum für Philologie* (19591967) and *Gnomon* (19701999; co-editor from 1975). - A fine, clean copy. - From the text: Paucity of evidence has not encouraged discussion of the date of perfor…mance for Sophocles, Oinomaos. There are two inescapable termini. Sophocles first exhibited in 468 (Plin. HN 18. 65, FGrHist 236 F A56, Plu. Cim. 8. 7 8); frag. 476P attests that the play was parodied in Aves of 414. Can we be more precise? In an autobiographical mot, probably uttered at Samos in 440 and preserved for Plutarch (Mor. 79B) by Ion of Chios in his Epidemiai, Sophocles distinguished three phases in his literary development. The first was Aeschylean. This may have lasted a decade but in any case included his earliest tragedies. There are less than eighteen verses of Oinomaos extant. Can we glean Aeschyleanisms?

Original cloth. Condition: Sehr gut. 202 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Zustand: Im einwandfreien Zustand. / Condition: In perfect condition. - Content: Mr P. G. Naiditch (Special Collections, University of California at Los… Angeles) first alerted Calder in 1989 to the existence at Claremont of the 124 letters and postcards of Hermann Diels to Theodor Gomperz and his one letter to Elise Gomperz. In a letter of 9 September 1993 to Calder Ms Jean Beckner, Special Collections Librarian, kindly conveyed owners permission from Mrs. Judy Harvey Sahak, Head of Special Collections, to publish the first 125 letters in this volume. The letters are in The Gomperz Collection, Special Collections Department, Honnold/Mudd Library, The Claremont Colleges, Claremont, California. The letters were given by Heinrich Gomperz to his friend and fellow refugee, the philosopher, Philip Merlan (20 December 1897 - 23 December 1968). Professor Merlan, long on the faculty of Scripps College, and his wife, presented them to the Honnold Library in 1959. Professor Thomas R. Martin, earlier of Claremont College, helpfully assisted Calder in tracking down the documents. The twenty-one letters and postcards of Diels to Heinrich Gomperz, edited within as numbers 126-146, are in Special Collections, The University Library, The University of Southern California, Los Angeles, California. Mr John Ahouse of Special Collections in his letter of 21 July 1994 to Calder has kindly granted owners permission to publish. The editors are grateful for help to a number of scholars. Four scholars deserve special thanks. Prof. Dr. Jaap Mansfeld (Utrecht) read with great care an early version of the letters to Theodor Gomperz. In a nine page letter to Calder of 22 June 1994 he made considerable improvements on the text and provided invaluable exegetical material. The citations that bear his name reveal only a bit of what we owe him. Probably the most abstruse matter in the texts that follow are Diels philological observations on the newly edited papyrological texts of Philodemos. The editors were incompetent to control them. With extraordinary generosity and at a busy time, Professor Dirk Obbink (Barnard College, New York), an international authority on this author, promptly provided expert annotation for the letters concerned with Philodemus. Apart from the many notes initialed D.O., all notes containing precise attributions of passages in Philodemos are owed him. The editors wish to make clear that their edition could never have been completed without his aid. For expert help on letter No. 71, concerned with Callimachus, Hekale we are grateful to Dr A. J. Hollis (Keble College, Oxford), the leading living authority on that poem. He has allowed us to cite his views in n. 480 infra. For elusive exegetical material cited within, the editors are indebted to Prof. Dr. Wilt Aden Schröder (Hamburg). We are grateful also for prompt replies to specific queries to Anton Bieri (Harvard/Leipzig), M. S. Armstrong (Hobart), M. H. Chambers (UCLA), R. L. Fowler (Waterloo/All Souls), Albert Henrichs (Harvard), Christhard Hoffmann (Berlin/Berkeley), Martin Hose (Greifswald), George Huxley (Dublin/Oxford), Luigi Lehnus (Milan), Jörgen Mejer (Copenhagen), P. G. Naiditch (UCLA), Edgar Pack (Erfurt/Köln), and R. Stroud (Berkeley). Calder thanks the Fondation Hardt (Vandoeuvres) for an invitation in summer 1994 that allowed the leisure and books for concentrated work on the edition. The volume is a Kollektivarbeit in the sense that all three editors read three drafts of the manuscript through carefully and together improved the whole considerably. More particularly the division of labor was the following: Dr Dietrich Ehlers (Berlin), the greatest living authority on the handwriting of Hermann Diels, made the first transcription of the documents. The demands of this difficult task can not be overestimated. The value of an edition depends first on the accuracy of its texts. Maximilian Braun (Munich/Urbana) worked closely with Calder on the exegetical commentary which also incorporates contributions by Dr. Ehlers. The two indices are owed M. Braun. The introduction and preface are by Calder. Stephen Trzaskoma M.A. (Berlin/Urbana) with his accustomed skill arranged the layout and provided expert camera-ready-copy. And he proofread the whole. The participation of these three scholars was made possible by grants from the Annual Research Fund of the William Abbott Oldfather Professorship of the Classics at the University of Illinois in Urbana/Champaign. In our edition we have censored nothing. All 146 preserved letters and postcards known to us by Diels to Theodor, Elise and Heinrich Gomperz have been published in full within. The one letter of Theodor Gomperz to Diels, known because published in part by Diels, is referred to within but not republished. ISBN 9783615001723 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 782.
