Cambridge University Press, 1985. 196p. Paperback. Lower corner a bit bumped. Name and date on half title. Series: Translated Documents of Greece and Rome, 3. Greek and Roman history has largely been reconstructed from the works of Herodotus, Thucydides, Livy, Tacitus, and other major authors who are today well represented in En…glish translations. But much equally valuable documentary material is buried in inscriptions and papyri and in the works of Greek and Roman grammarians and scholars, and less well known historians and literary figures, of whose writings only isolated quotations have been preserved. 'Translated Documents of Greece and Rome' has been planned to provide, above all, primary source material for the study of the classical world. It makes important historical documents available in English to scholars and students of classical history. The format of the translations is remarkable in attempting to reproduce faithfully the textual difficulties and uncertainties inherent in the documents, so that the reader without a knowledge of classical languages can assess the reliability of the various readings and interpretations. The author's purpose in compiling this book is to help the teaching of Hellenistic history at undergraduate and graduate level by providing students and teachers with a representative selection of accurately translated documents dealing with the political and social history of Greece and the Near and Middle East from c. 300 to c. 30 BC. The continuing vitality of the Greek cities in the Hellenistic period and the interaction of Greek and non-Greek cultures in the Near and Middle East after Alexander are the two themes to which the author pays particular attention. In accordance with the principles of this series, selections from readily available major authors such as Polybius and Plutarch have been excluded except where unavoidable. Instead the bulk of the selections have been drawn from papyrological and epigraphical sources, many of which have never been translated into English before. The texts include city decrees and regulations, royal letters and ordinances, records of embassies and judicial decisions, dedications, treaties, statue bases, and documents dealing with the establishment of festivals, dynastic and other religious cults, education and other endowments. Brief commentaries and bibliographical notes accompany each text. Students and teachers of ancient history and classical civilization will welcome this book. Those studying Jewish history and the historical background of early Christianity will also find it interesting. (Publisher's information).

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This volume contains the collected work of the distinguished Greek historian Stanley M. Burstein concerning the ancient Greek experience in the Black Sea. He wrote these studies over a period of almost half a century, from the early 1970s to the present. Most scholarship dealing with the his…tory of the Greeks in the Pontus centers on the Greek cities of the north and west coasts. By contrast, Prof. Bursteins work focuses on the less well-known cities of the south coast, particularly Heraclea Pontica, which is distinguished by a uniquely rich historical tradition. The volume is divided into two parts. The first part reprints the authors classic monograph Outpost of Hellenism: The Emergence of Heraclea on the Black Sea, which has been long out of print and copies of which are difficult to obtain. The second part includes seventeen papers written subsequent to the publication of Outpost of Hellenism in 1976 that examine Heracleas relations with other Greek states in the Black Sea and the Aegean. As a group, these studies constitute a valuable contribution to the study of the history of the Pontic Greeks from the beginning of Greek activity in the Black Sea in the Archaic period to the Hellenistic period. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
