Download or read book The Roman Book written by Rex Winsbury and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2009-03-26 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What was a Roman book? How did it differ from modern books? How were Roman books composed, published and distributed during the high period of Roman literature that encompassed, among others, Virgil, Horace, Ovid, Martial, Pliny and Tacitus? What was the ‘scribal art’ of the time? What was the role of bookshops and libraries? The publishing of Roman books has often been misrepresented by false analogies with contemporary publishing. This wide-ranging study re-examines, by appeal to what Roman authors themselves tell us, both the raw material and the aesthetic criteria of the Roman book, and shows how slavery was the ‘enabling infrastructure’ of literature. Roman publishing is placed firmly in the context of a society where the spoken still ranked above the written, helping to explain how some books and authors became politically dangerous and how the Roman book could be both an elite cultural icon and a contributor to Rome’s popular culture through the mass medium of the theatre.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Public Libraries and Literary Culture in Ancient Rome As no treatise dealing with public libraries in antiquity has survived from ancient or mediaeval times, it is only by the study of miscellaneous data afforded by classical literature, inscriptions, and monuments that a conception of public libraries in ancient Rome may be obtained. Employing such sources of information, the present inquiry will concern itself with the history, equipment, contents, manage ment, object, and cultural significance of the Roman public library. Particular attention will be directed to libraries in Rome during the first one hundred and fifty years of the Empire. The first four centuries, however, form the total period under general consideration. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Survey of Classical Roman Literature, Vol. 2 OR a statement of the pedagogical purposes and uses of this Survey of Classical Roman Literature, teachers are referred to the preface of Volume I. The present volume, in direct continuation of the first, presents the literature of the Empire. Authors of the Empire, nearer to us in time, have survived in far more formidable array, which makes the task of selection correspondingly harder - although many extant works of this period are either factual and non literary or distinctly second-rate. Teachers Who hesitate to read all the authors here included may choose at will; or, if they prefer to confine instruction to the strictly classic tradition, may omit most of the fifth period.

This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Roman Empire From Its Foundation to the Death of Marcus Aurelius 27 IT is well known that for the period of Roman history, which is of all its periods perhaps the most important - the first two centuries of the Empire - there exists no English handbook suitable for use in Universities and Schools. The consequence of this want in our educational course is that the knowledge of Roman history possessed by students, who are otherwise men of considerable attainments in classical literature, comes to a sudden end at the Battle of Actium. At least, their systematic knowledge ends there of. The subsequent history they know only isolated facts gathered at haphazard from Horace, J uvenal and Tacitus. This much-felt need will, it is hoped, be met by the present volume, which bridges the gap between the Student's Rome and the Student's Gibbon.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lays of Ancient Rome Even in the age of Plutarch there were discerning men who rejected the popular account of the foundation of Rome, because that account appeared to them to have the air, not of a history, but of a romance or a drama. Plutarch, who was displeased at their incredulity, had nothing better to say in reply to their arguments than that chance sometimes turns poet, and produces trains of events not to be distinguished from the most elaborate plots which are constructed by art.* But though the existence of a poetical element in the early history of the Great City was detected so many ages ago.

Download or read book Stories From the History of Rome (Classic Reprint) written by Mrs. Beesly and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-08 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories From the History of Rome The writer of this little book was not satisfied that her children should hear nothing but fairy tales and the stories of nursery life, now so popular. But she could find nothing else fit to read to them. There are, indeed, plenty of story-books drawing their materials from history, and professing to be intended for children. But they are not suited to very young children. They abound in words and ideas which a child of four or six years old not only does not understand, but cannot be made to understand. The writer, however, believed that it was quite possible to put portions of Livy and Plutarch into language which should need little or no explanation even to children of that age. She accordingly made the experiment. One story after another was written and read to her little boys. Whenever she discovered that a word or idea was unintelligible to them, she took pains to simplify it. She found that they thoroughly enjoyed these old tales from Roman history, and liked to hear them repeated again and again.
