Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Near fine hardcover in rubbed dust jacket. First Edition. With 24 color plates and 15 black-and-white drawings by Ray Harris-Ching, plus historical paintings, photographs, and maps. This is a definitive work on a family of birds at once so familiar and yet little known. Only on the islands of New Zealand are these ancient and curious birds found, and this book brings together much that has been learned since their earliest sightings to the present time. The authors are eminently suited to this task, and the series of paintings and drawings by Ray Harris-Ching reveal kiwis in original and unexpected ways. The book is founded on an enormous amount of research and field trips, and describes in detail the way of life, habitats, and visual characteristics of kiwis, as well as offering a history of the bird's importance to the Maori and its place as a symbol of great affection in the hearts of New Zealanders. Altogether, some 75 illustrations add immeasurably to this instructive and beautiful book.

Light wear to back upper corner.; Die Festschrift vereinigt die Vorträge amerikanischer und deutscher Wissenschaftler, die anläÃlich des 70. Geburtstags William M. Calders III (Professor of Classics at the University of Illinois) im September 2002 auf einem Kolloquium in der Fondation Hardt (VandÅ"uvres/Genf) gehalten wurden. Zu Ehren des Jubilars, der sich in den vergangenen Jahrzehnten um die Wissenschaftsgeschichte der Altertumskunde international anerkannte Verdienste erworben hat, war dieses Kolloquium dem groÃen deutschen Gräzisten Ulrich von Wilamowitz-Moellendorff (1848-1931) gewidmet. Die Vielfalt wissenschaftsgeschichtlicher Fragestellungen spiegelt sich in den Beiträgen wider: Während sich die einen mit Wilamowitz' Forschungen über antike Schriftsteller, wie Sophokles, Aristophanes, Seneca und die Autoren des griechischen Romans, und mit seiner Arbeit über unterschiedlichste Bereiche antiker Kultur, etwa die Astrologie, das griechisch-rà mische Drama und die attische Demokratie, beschäftigen, erhellt ein anderer, welche allgemeine Bedeutung für die Kultur und Bildung des 19. Jahrhunderts Wilamowitz dem Griechischen zumaÃ. Weitere Studien sind hingegen von biographischem und historischem Interesse und gelten z. B. Seiner Haltung zu Meinungsfreiheit und politischer Zensur. Nicht zuletzt werden in diesem Band wichtige Originaldokumente erstmals ediert, so der umfängliche Briefwechsel zwischen Wilamowitz und dem Altertumswissenschaftler Franz Boll.; Spudasmata Band 92; 324 pages; Signed by One Author.

Franz Steiner Verlag, Wiesbaden / Stuttgart, 1986. X,293p. Sewn. Series: Hermes, Einzelschriften, Heft 49. 'Friedrich Gottlieb Welcker (1784-1868) was regarded by Wilamowitz as the scholar who had the greatest influence upon his work. This collection of lectures on various aspects of Welcker, most of them delivered at a bicentenary colloquium at Bad Homburg in November, 1984, helps to explain the nature of that influence and throws much light on an important figure in the history of scholarship. (.) The four chief areas in which Welcker worked are handled in separate chapters, Homer and the epic cycle by Wolfgang Kullmann, lost tragedies by Stefan Radt, the 'Götterlehre' by Albert Henrichs and the archaeology by Wilfred Geominy. Instead of a general account of his treatment of Greek lyric poetry, W.M. Calder III offers an essay on his treatment of Sappho, a topic which lends itself to Calder's way of writing what he calls 'Wissenschaftsgeschichte. (.) The most interesting contribution is that of Henrichs. Welcker, as he shows, believed in a religion of nature, later replaced by the religion of the Olympians (.). Despite the failure of the 'Götterlehere' with the public, the work influenced Bachofen, Nietzsche and Rohde. Wilamowitz followed Welcker in concentrating on the Greeks, describing the individual gods, and taking over a Goethian notion of belief; but Welcker was important to Wilamowitz mainly because he drew a general picture of antiquity, unsing the evidence of religion, poetry and art together. His real heir was Usener, who reproduced many of his faults, including the extravagant use of often dubious etymologies and the indiscriminate employment of material from different periods; but Usener was interested not so much in the Greek gods as in the foundations of religion in general. (.) Henrichs rightly insists that Welcker's 'Götterlehre' is important in our own time, as an impressive attempt to attain what he calls a 'subjective Innenperspektive'; the only scholars of the twentieth century who he thinks have attempted this are Walter F. Otto, Karl Kerenyi and, despite the presence of a strong socio-historical element in his work, Jean-Pierre Vernant.' (HUGH LLOYD- JONES in The Classical Review (New Series), 1987, pp.294-96). From the library of the late Professor Doktor Nikolaus Himmelmann.
