Download or read book A Curious Invitation written by Suzette Field and published by Picador. This book was released on 2014-09 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since ancient times human beings have gathered together for social purposes. And since not very long after that writers have written about these occasions. The party is a useful literary device, not only for social comment and satire, but as an occasion where characters can meet, fall in love, fall out or even get murdered. A Curious Invitation features forty of the greatest fictional festivities. Some of these parties are depictions of real events, like the Duchess of Richmond's Ball on the eve of battle with Napoleon in Thackeray's Vanity Fair; others draw on the author's experience of the society they lived in, such as Lady Metroland's party in Evelyn Waugh's Vile Bodies; while yet others come straight from the writer's bizarre imagination, like Douglas Adams' flying party above an unknown planet from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Suzette Field offers you the chance to gatecrash these parties, spanning most of the history of human civilization, seen through the eyes of the world's greatest writers.

Download or read book Satyricon's Trimalchio written by Gaius Petronius and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-05-07 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of all the stories narrated, "Trimalchio" tells the story from beginning to end, though in bits and pieces; that is, in the fragments that have survived. When readers think of a dinner banquet in ancient times, what comes to mind is Plato's Symposium, in which Plato treats his readers to a discussion of the most delicious intellectual delicacies, such as the theme of love. In contrast what one finds in "Trimalchio," is a dinner of the most delicious culinary delicacies, and a dearth of intellectual discussion. The guests at the dinner table consist of gabby table-talkers who delight in conversing about the most trivial themes-supernatural tales- which they cap with obscene and vulgar behavior, such as the mistreatment of slaves and women. The nouveau riche Trimalchio, holds the dinner party at his grossly expensive estate, where a retinue of slaves, cooks, and servants, serve the guests with exotic, abundant, extravagant, and wasteful dishes. Given that F. Scott Fitzgerald's recreates such extravagant parties in his novel The Great Gatsby, he initially named the novel, Trimalchio. While both, Petronius and Fitzgerald, appear to have been concerned with portraying the moral decay that accompanies the noveau riche, Petronius' book manages to capture the spirit of ancient Rome, through its low characters; Fitzgerald fails to capture the spirit of New York in the 1920s. This selection presents only one story of the Satyricon: "Dinner at Trimalchio's." The reader should not expect all the stories of the Satyricon.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Trimalchio's Dinner It is obvious that the ordinary canons of the translator's art cannot be applied to one who undertakes to render into English a production so absolutely unique as the Cena Trimalchionis. This curious fragment, containing as it does the most perfect specimens that we have of the so-called plebeian Latinity, - the idiom of the Roman rabble as distinct from the literary language of cultivated men, - is so filled with words and phrases that find no parallel elsewhere in existing Latin literature, and the conversation of the characters introduced in it is so coloured with argot and with slang, as to make anything like a literal translation quite impossible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the thirty short poems and two long ones that form part of Petronius' Satyricon, the oldest surviving work of prose fiction in the Western tradition. Unlike general studies of Petronius that do not consider the verse in much detail, and a recent commentary on the short poems that treats them in isolation, this book presents detailed close readings of these poems in their fictional and literary historical contexts. All Latin and Greek is translated.

Download or read book Menander in Antiquity written by Sebastiana Nervegna and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-04-25 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The comic playwright Menander was one of the most popular writers throughout antiquity. This book reconstructs his life and the legacy of his work until the end of antiquity employing a broad range of sources such as portraits, illustrations of his plays, papyri preserving their texts and inscriptions recording their public performances. These are placed within the context of the three social and cultural institutions which appropriated his comedy, thereby ensuring its survival: public theatres, dinner parties and schools. Dr Nervegna carefully reconstructs how each context approached Menander's drama and how it contributed to its popularity over the centuries. The resultant, highly illustrated, book will be essential for all scholars and students not just of Menander's comedy but, more broadly, of the history and iconography of the ancient theatre, ancient social history and reception studies.

Book excerpt: 'A really fun idea for a book - and full of great stuff.' Greg Jenner, Public HistorianThis is the perfect guide for any writer who wants to recreate the Roman world accurately in their fiction. It will aid any novelist, screenwriter, games designer or re-enactor in populating their story with authentic characters and scenes, costumes and locations. Written from a historian's perspective, this guide pulls back the curtain to show the reader what life in Ancient Rome was really like: what they wore, what they ate, and how they spent their time at work, at home, at war, and at play. Individual chapters focus on different aspects of Romans' lives, to give you specific knowledge of what they looked like and how they behaved, as well as a broad appreciation of what held their civilisation together, from religion, to the economy, to law and order. You may wish to work your way through the book from cover to cover, or focus specifically on individual chapters as you hone your creative writing skills. Covering the period between 200 BCE and 200 CE, A writer's guide to Ancient Rome surveys the vast amount of sources and scholarship on the Classical world so you don't have to! It outlines current scholarly debates and changing interpretations, suggests further reading, and recommends particular resources to mine for each topic. It gives you plenty to consider while you construct your own Roman world.
