Pamphlet. Condition: New. A Greek merchant-explorer Pytheas - whose home port was the Greek colony of Massalia (Marseilles) - is said to be the first person to have circumnavigated the British Isles, in 325 BCE, thereby fixing the islands in the historical imagination as archipelagic, maritime, aloof. His own account of the voya…ge is lost. This poem attempts to make good that lack, albeit in the consciousness of countless other voyages (imagined as much as real) that have intervened.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Sehr gut. Gebraucht - Sehr gut Leichte Lagerspuren -Als anti-narrative Gattung par excellence erlebt das Stilleben in der Literatur des 20. Jahrhunderts ein eigentümliches Revival. Es lenkt den Blick nicht nur auf die Krisen und Aporien des Erzählens, sondern zugleich auf die Anachronismen und Restbeständ…e der Moderne selbst. Im Untergrund der Texte entfaltet das Stilleben ein subversives Potential, das die narrative Logik ebenso wie die Hierarchie von Groß und Klein unterläuft. Gerade deshalb ist das Stilleben nicht nur Gegenstand der Lektüre, sondern zugleich deren Dispositiv: Es zeitigt eine Philologie des Kleinen, die das übersehene, widerspenstige Detail fokussiert. An Werken von Robert Musil und Marcel Proust, W.G. Sebald und Claude Simon geht die Studie der »Arbeit des Bildes« nach - jenen überaus produktiven Rezeptions- und Übertragungsprozessen zwischen Bildern und Texten, durch die sich Topoi und Figuren verborgen fortschreiben. 290 pp. Deutsch.

Soft cover. Condition: As New. 1st Edition. Summary:The text of the Periplous or 'circumnavigation' that survives under the name of Skylax of Karyanda is in fact by an unknown author of the 4th century BC. It describes the coasts of the Mediterranean and Black Sea, naming hundreds of towns with geographical features such as rive…rs, harbours and mountains. But, argues Graham Shipley, it is not the record of a voyage or a navigational handbook for sailors. It is, rather, the first work of Greek theoretical geography, written in Athens at a time of intellectual ferment and intense speculation about the nature and dimensions of the inhabited world. While other scientists were gathering data about natural science and political systems or making rapid advances in philosophy, rhetorical theory, and cosmology, the unknown author collected data about the structure of the lands bordering the seas known to the Greeks, and compiled sailing distances and times along well-frequented routes.
