Book Synopsis Catalogues of Proper Names in Latin Epic Poetry by : Stratis Kyriakidis
Download or read book Catalogues of Proper Names in Latin Epic Poetry written by Stratis Kyriakidis and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-03-26 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book consists of two main parts: a) Structure and Contents, b) Catalogues in Context: In the first part the major subject is how a catalogue is organized internally. A number of structural patterns formed since Homer on the basis of the position the names held within the catalogue (density in the middle - spacing in the middle -ascending /descending mode - internal balance - erratic pattern) were to continue down to the period of Lucretius, Virgil and Ovid. Each pattern carries its own dynamism in the text and has its particular effects in the reading process. Especially when the poetic work evolves in time, the fluctuation of the density in names per verse entails a corresponding fluctuation of the narrative tempo. On occasion the reader may also recognize in the structure of the catalogue a visual parallel to the situation described. Mirroring technique -widely applied in literary and artistic works in antiquity- finds its place in the poetic catalogues of the period and can be distinguished in three major categories: the extratextual, the intertextual, and the intratextual. In Ovid the technique became most sophisticated. The second part deals with the relation of the catalogue to its surrounding text. In this respect, catalogue-markers and the way a catalogue is introduced or completed are issues which are discussed in this part of the work, as they can be indicative of the way the poet views the contents of a catalogue. What becomes evident here is that the usual catalogue-markers are the products of the notion that whoever or whatever is included in a catalogue is listed there as an individual entity, even if some of its characteristics are neutralized. This proves to be true in Virgil where the items of a catalogue retain their value whereas frame and content function in support of each other. This also occurs in the greater part of the epic tradition. Before Virgil, however, in Lucretius, the frame was often the means of subverting the traditional function of a catalogue, since it usually called into question the very existence of the beings named, or undermined their value. On some occasions, a Virgilian catalogue does not close with a verbal frame but with a pause. This mode of closure proves to be the strongest boundary between a catalogue and the continuation of the narrative. On other occasions we shall find a simile at the end of a catalogue. These closural devices stress the catalogue’s potentials as they affect the reading process. Things change in the Ovidian Metamorphoses. Ovid makes extensive use of various poetic techniques and devices which he draws from the tradition in general and Virgil in particular. In doing so, however, he often challenges their significance and forms catalogues that give the impression of delaying, by protracting the oncoming narrative. In Ovid’s work neither the pause nor the simile can easily constitute natural barriers to his catalogues. Everything in the Metamorphoses is in a continuous state of flux and the catalogue, too, has to adapt accordingly by acquiring new characteristics with novel values. This book is the first of the series Pierides, series editors: Philip Hardie - Stratis Kyriakidis

Book Synopsis Diary Volume 1 by : Witold Gombrowicz
Download or read book Diary Volume 1 written by Witold Gombrowicz and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 1988-03 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just before the outbreak of World War II, young Witold Gombrowicz left his home in Poland and set sail for South America. In 1953, still living as an expatriate in Argentina, he began his "Diary" with one of literature's most memorable openings. Gombrowicz's "Diary" grew to become a vast collection of essays, short notes, polemics, and confessions on myriad subjects ranging from political events to literature to the certainty of death. Not a traditional journal, "Diary" is instead the commentary of a brilliant and restless mind. Widely regarded as a masterpiece, this brilliant work compelled Gombrowicz's attention for a decade and a half until he penned his final entry in France, shortly before his death in 1969.
Book Synopsis Delphi Complete Works of Persius (Illustrated) by : Aulus Persius Flaccus
Download or read book Delphi Complete Works of Persius (Illustrated) written by Aulus Persius Flaccus and published by Delphi Classics. This book was released on 2021-09-08 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A first century Roman poet of Etruscan origin, Persius wrote polished satires that reveal his interest in Stoicism and a strong criticism for what he considered to be the stylistic abuses of his poetic contemporaries. Like Juvenal who would write half a century later, Persius was the heir to the style of Latin verse satire developed by Lucilius and Horace, which were clearly aimed at a sophisticated and urban audience. He adopts the mask of an angry man, while his sharp criticism of the society in which he lives is combined with flashes of sardonic humor. Delphi’s Ancient Classics series provides eReaders with the wisdom of the Classical world, with both English translations and the original Latin texts. This comprehensive eBook presents Persius’ complete extant works, with illustrations, an informative introduction and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1) * Beautifully illustrated with images relating to Persius’ life and works * Features the complete extant works of Persius, in both English translation and the original Latin * Concise introduction to the poetry * Provides both verse and prose translations * Also includes the 1918 translation previously appearing in the Loeb Classical Library edition * Features the translators’ original footnotes, giving important contextual information * Excellent formatting of the texts * Easily locate the poems you want to read with individual contents tables * Provides a special dual English and Latin text, allowing readers to compare the sections paragraph by paragraph — ideal for Latin students * Features three biographies — discover Persius’ ancient world * Ordering of texts into chronological order and literary genres Please visit www.delphiclassics.com to explore our range of Ancient Classics titles or buy the entire series as a Super Set CONTENTS: The Translations Brief Introduction to Persius Lewis Evans’ Prose Translation, 1881 William Gifford’s Verse Translation, 1881 George Gilbert Ramsay’s Prose Translation, 1918 The Latin Text Contents of the Latin Text The Dual Text Dual Latin and English Text The Biographies The Life of Aulus Persius Flaccus (c. 121) by Suetonius An Essay on the Roman Satirists (1881) by William Gifford Life of Persius (1918) by George Gilbert Ramsay Please visit www.delphiclassics.com to browse through our range of exciting titles

Download or read book Yale Classics (Vol. 2) written by Lucius Annaeus Seneca and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2023-11-21 with total page 5588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection is based on the required reading list of Yale Department of Classics. Originally designed for students, this anthology is meant for everyone eager to know more about the history and literature of this period, interested in poetry, philosophy and rhetoric of Ancient Rome. Latin literature is a natural successor of Ancient Greek literature. The beginning of Classic Roman literature dates to 240 BC. From that point on, Latin literature would flourish for the next six centuries. Latin was the language of the ancient Romans, but it was also the lingua franca of Western Europe throughout the Middle Ages. Consequently, Latin Literature outlived the Roman Empire and it included European writers who followed the fall of the Empire, from religious writers like Aquinas, to secular writers like Francis Bacon, Baruch Spinoza, and Isaac Newton. This collection presents all the major Classic Roman authors, including Cicero, Virgil, Ovid and Horace whose work intrigues and fascinates readers until this day. Content: Plautus: Aulularia Amphitryon Terence: Adelphoe Ennius: Annales Catullus: Poems and Fragments Lucretius: On the Nature of Things Julius Caesar: The Civil War Sallust: History of Catiline's Conspiracy Cicero: De Oratore Brutus Horace: The Odes The Epodes The Satires The Epistles The Art of Poetry Virgil: The Aeneid The Georgics Tibullus: Elegies Propertius: Elegies Cornelius Nepos: Lives of Eminent Commanders Ovid: The Metamorphoses Augustus: Res Gestae Divi Augusti Lucius Annaeus Seneca: Moral Letters to Lucilius Lucan: On the Civil War Persius: Satires Petronius: Satyricon Martial: Epigrams Pliny the Younger: Letters Tacitus: The Annals Quintilian: Institutio Oratoria Juvenal: Satires Suetonius: The Twelve Caesars Apuleius: The Metamorphoses Ammianus Marcellinus: The Roman History Saint Augustine of Hippo: The Confessions Claudian: Against Eutropius Boethius: The Consolation of Philosophy Plutarch: The Rise and Fall of Roman Supremacy: Romulus Poplicola Camillus Marcus Cato Lucullus Fabius Crassus Coriolanus Cato the Younger Cicero

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yale Required Reading - Collected Works (Vol. 2) presents a panoramic vista of the literary landscape that shaped the Western intellectual tradition. From the forensic oratory of Cicero to the epic poetry of Virgil, and from the stoic wisdom of Seneca to the biting satires of Juvenal, this anthology traverses the myriad forms and themes that embroidered the fabric of Roman literary and philosophical thought. The collection showcases the diversity within the Roman literary canon, embracing works that range from historical annals and dramatic plays to philosophical treatises and poetic elegies. The inclusion of seminal works such as Horace's Odes, Plautus's Comedies, and Boethius's Consolation of Philosophy, among others, underscores the anthologys dedication to presenting the breadth of human experience and emotion rendered through the unique prisms of its authors. The contributors to this volume are icons of the classical world, each a master in their respective field. Their works collectively span the Golden and Silver Ages of Roman literature, capturing pivotal moments of historical transition and the evolution of Roman culture and society. These authors were not only witnesses to the zenith and decline of the Roman Republic and the rise of the Empire but were also integral voices in the literary, philosophical, and political discourses of their time. Their writings continue to influence modern thought, offering timeless insights into the human condition, governance, morality, and the arts. The backgrounds of these luminaries - senators, soldiers, philosophers, and poets - enrich the anthology by providing a mosaic of perspectives that reflect the complex socio-political fabric of their era. Yale Required Reading - Collected Works (Vol. 2) is an indispensable resource for both scholars and casual readers seeking to immerse themselves in the depth and diversity of classical literature. It offers a unique journey through the intellectual and moral landscapes navigated by the ancients, whose inquiries into virtue, justice, duty, and beauty remain profoundly relevant. This collection not only furnishes readers with a comprehensive understanding of the literary achievements of antiquity but also invites them to engage in an ongoing dialogue with the past, exploring timeless questions through the rich tapestry of classical thought. It is a testament to the enduring power of literature to bridge the past and present, providing insight, inspiration, and a deeper understanding of the human spirit.
