Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good+. Book is fine. DJ has very light shelfwear. ; Considering the relationship between artists and texts throughout classical antiquity, this study systematically applies new and objective criteria to judge the fidelity between picture and text. It becomes clear that artists illustrate stories, not texts, and Jocelyn Penny Small argues that artistic transmissions follow the model of oral, not textual, transmission where the variant rules and there is no original. Pictures on vases, she demonstrates, should not be used to reconstruct lost literary works. ; 10.2 X 7.2 X 0.8 inches; 270 pages.

Original cloth. Condition: Sehr gut. 164 p., w/ pictures nad maps. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - In perfect condition. - Content: The passage of time fosters the development of legends. When what was once known becomes hazy, it is ripe for embellishment. The greater the separation of the teller from the event the more fabulous the account. Yet no matter how dramatic the deed, heroic the hero, or villainous the villain, a kernel of historical truth remains. This factual element not only distinguishes legend from pure myth and folktale, but also keeps the legend firmly rooted in a political sphere; for legends are told not just for entertaining or didactic purposes, but, like any propaganda, bent to meet contemporary needs. When a diversity of competing groups exists, a golden age of legends results. Such a period occurred in Etrusco-Roman Italy during the later Republic and the beginning of the Empire. Whatever the original catalyst or catalysts, the end of the fourth century B.C. marks an increased interest in bygone events and in particular of the sixth century B.C. a period pivotal for both Etruscans and Romans. It witnessed the height of the power of the Etruscans when they ruled Rome, as well as their expulsion and the establishment of the Roman Republic. While the characters coincide and the basic events agree, much remained open to manipulation not just once but many times. That is, prior to the beginning of the Empire Roman annalists recorded a number of highly biased accounts of rival families, while the Etruscan view can sometimes be reconstructed from their pictorial representations. Even the standard histories, such as those by Livy and Tacitus, sometimes contain stray, almost inadvertent, references that hint at situations differing from the "canonical."

[8], ix-xvi, [2], 3-164, [2], [12] plates with back-to-back black and white photographs of archaeological sites, artefacts, and maps. Beige cloth with gold lettering blocked in maroon. Written by a Director of the U.S. Center of the Lexicon Iconographicum Mythologiae Classicae at Rutgers University. A work of classical scholarship concerned with Greek and Southern Italian vase paintings of the myth of Apollo and Marsyas and how they influenced the Etruscan representations of the myth of Cacus and the Vibennae brothers. This work argues that Etruscans purposefully adapted Greek visual imagery to represent their own mythology. Professor Small Penny uses evidence from the Roman forum, the Palentine, the Aventine, Late Roman Republic Coins, and Greek Imperial coins to argue how Marsyas and Cacus are connected, and how the figures were represented in Roman political and religious life. Jacket shows a faint touch of rubbing to the front panel, else Fine.
