Paperback. Condition: New. Among the epic romances of post-Barbarian Europe, such as Roland and El Cid, Digenis Akritas has been the least known in the West-outside Greece. It is the story of a half-breed prince who guarded the eastern border of the Roman Empire of Byzantium on the Euphrates in the tenth century. His name and cognomen, Basil, the Two-Blood Border Lord, sum up the curious richness of his heritage: Roman by politics, Arab and Cappadocian by birth, Greek in language, and orthodox by faith. On an incursion into Byzantine territory, an Arab Emir captures a Christian woman. Her relatives, in raiding to rescue her, convert the Emir and his people to Christianity and bring them back to the empire. Basil is born of this union. A prodigy of valor, his miraculous strength in hunting and in battle win him an Arab bride and the loyalty of her family. He settles in a splendid garden palace by the Euphrates, pacifies the Border, fights dragons and bandits only to die young at the same instant as his wife. The poem in English verse translation is full of humor, fairytale, and a moving religious devotion. It recaptures an urbane vanished civilization. The translator has collated all the known texts and supports the translation with commentary, a bibliography, and a map.

First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Gift quality first edition hardcover in rust cloth covered boards with black line drawing of a Grecian man running with his hound holding a spear on his shoulder. Gilt title on backstrip is bright. Tips sharp, head of spine bumped, no names, tears or soil in the 239 pp text. Un-clipped dust wrapper in new mylar showing age toning along back strip and both outer gutter areas is complete and will protect this book going forward. Denison Bingham Hull began to read Greek in prep school and at Harvard, and since then he has impressively deepened his learning. As a hunting man, he was a comparatively last starter - he rode to hounds at the age of forty. Only three years later he became Master of Foxhounds and now can claim to have bred over five hundred hounds and to have individually trained over a hundred. To add to his practical experience, he read every book on hunting he could lay his hands on. Hounds and Hunting in Ancient Greece has behind it, consequently, an unrivaled acquaintance with books on hunting, both ancient and modern. It is unique, both in its choice of subject and in its blending of irreproachable scholarship with literary distinction. It was written by a man who can freshly visualize the hunting practices, and joys, and superstitions of a remote age. This book will appeal to all who appreciate concrete, unadorned, evocative writing - and, where it is required, the shrewd use of inference. Mr. Hull discusses the hunting gear of the Greeks, their breeds of hounds, and the "natural history" - sometimes sound, sometimes erroneous and fantastic - of the animals hunted: hare, deer, gazelle, antelope, wild cattle, fox and lion. The supreme test for the hunter, the Greeks believed, was to confront the wily and vicious wild boar. Handsomely produced and illustrated, with line drawings by Virgil Burnett and sixteen plates, the work includes complete translations of Xenophon's Cynegeticus and Arrian's Cynegeticus and translated excerpts from the Onomasicon of Julius Pollux. Also provided are glossaries of Greek technical terms and animals with their modern English equivalents.
