1st Edition
By Graham Anderson

A number of ancient novelists were skilful storytellers and resourceful literary artists, and their works are often carefully individualised presentations of an ancient and distinguished heritage. Ancient Fiction, first published in 1984, examines the tales retold by these novelists in light of ...

1st Edition
By Richard A Tomlinson
June 10, 2015
Argos and the Argolid, first published in 1972, presents a study of the history and achievements of the Argives, who have hitherto been largely neglected: partly because Classical Argos is overshadowed by the legends of an earlier millennium, and partly because many of her monuments and records ...

Aristophanes (Routledge Revivals): Poet and Dramatist
1st Edition
By Rosemary Harriott
June 10, 2015
To many people Aristophanes is the most immediately attractive and enjoyable of the Greek dramatists. No other comedies from the great age of Attic drama survive in a complete state, and the vigour of his fictions and the brilliance of his humour maintain their power to stimulate and entertain even...
Athens after the Peloponnesian War (Routledge Revivals): Class, Faction and Policy 403-386 B.C.
1st Edition
By Barry Strauss
June 10, 2015
Historians are used to studying the origins of war. The rebuilding in the aftermath of war is a subject that – at least in the case of Athens – has received far less attention. Along with the problems of reconstructing the economy and replenishing the population, the problem of renegotiating ...
Athens in Decline (Routledge Revivals): 404-86 B.C.
1st Edition
By Claude Mossé
June 10, 2015
Athens has, at different times and from different points of view, been cited as a model of moderate democracy and triumphant humanism, or, on the contrary, as an illustration of the disorders due to demagoguery and misguided imperialism. Professor Mossé looks beyond these judgments to discuss the ...

From Tiberius to the Antonines (Routledge Revivals): A History of the Roman Empire AD 14-192
1st Edition
By Albino Garzetti
June 10, 2015
The first two centuries of the Christian era were largely a period of consolidation for the Roman Empire. However, the history of the heyday of Roman imperium is far from dull, for Augustus’ successors ranged from capable administrators - Tiberius, Claudius and Hadrian - to near-madmen like ...
Greek Tragedy and the Emotions (Routledge Revivals): An Introductory Study
1st Edition
By W. Stanford
June 10, 2015
According to Aristotle the main purpose of tragedy is the manipulation of emotions, and yet there are relatively few accessible studies of the precise dynamics of emotion in the Athenian theatre. In Greek Tragedy and the Emotions, first published in 1993, W.B. Stanford reviews the evidence for ‘...
Herodotos the Historian (Routledge Revivals): His Problems, Methods and Originality
1st Edition
By K. H. Waters
June 10, 2015
The work of Herodotos of Halikarnassos, ‘the father of history’, differs in many ways from that of modern historians, and it poses special problems to the student. Herodotos’ history of the Persian Wars, written in the second half of the fifth century BC, was both the first attempt at a ...
