Condition: Gut. pp. 563-582. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - With dedication of the author. - Author's name handwritten on cover, otherwise a perfect copy. - From the text: Teseos expedition against the Amazons in the first book of Boccaccios Teseid2 originates from a brief passage in Statius Thebaid 12 (519 ff.) mentioning the return of victorious Theseus from Scythia to Athens. The narrative itself relies in part on Hypsipyles story of the Argonauts and the Lemnian women in Thebaid 5.17-498. Teseida 2 adapts the account of Thebaid 12.464-809 treating Theseus expedition against Creon. The invented part of the Teseida begins after Teseos victory over Creon, when Arcita and Palemone are found among the wounded and brought before the duca of Athens. In Teseida 3-12 rivalry for the heart of Emilia reworks intertextually rivalry in political affairs (the throne of Thebes in Statius). Genre, themes, language and ideology in Boccaccios poem have triggered a discussion of the association between martial and love epic, le armi and gli amori, Mars and Venus.

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Fine. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen; Farbtonänderung. This volume features papers from RICAN 4 in 2007, focusing on readers and writers in ancient novels and fiction. The contributions explore the active engagement of readers with texts, highlighting various aspects of reading in antiquity. Key topics include the dialogic nature of Lucian's Verae Historiae, the role of book divisions in Chariton's Callirhoe as guides for reader mastery, and the influence of curiosity (polypragmosyne) on reading practices. The relationship between writing and reading inscriptions in ancient fiction is examined, alongside the public-private tension in text construction. The intertextual lineage of the poet Eumolpus is discussed, as well as Seneca's and Petronius' interpretations of Homer and Virgil. Some Greek novels draw attention to their textual status, while the dynamics between storytellers and audiences are analyzed in Antonius Diogenes. The generic elements and authorship of the Alexander Romance are explored, as well as Diktys' writing and reading approaches. Iliadic intertexts in Apuleius' Metamorphoses are examined, contrasting narrator-translator roles in his works. The volume also addresses seriocomic strategies in Roman narrative fiction, the recognition of allegorical moments in Apuleius, active versus passive reading in Philostratus' Life of Apollonius, and the significance of book reading in Augustine's Confessions.
