paperback. Condition: Very Good in Wrappers. No Jacket. First Edition. Berkeley. 2009. May 2009. University of California Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 9780520256040. 6 b/w photographs, 2 line illustrations, 5 maps. 248 pages. paperback. Cover design by Janet Wood. keywords: Classical Studies. DESCRIPTION - Pericles, Greece's greatest statesman and the leader of its Golden Age, created the Parthenon and championed democracy in Athens and beyond. Centuries of praise have endowed him with the powers of a demigod, but what did his friends, associates, and fellow citizens think of him? In PERICLES: A SOURCEBOOK AND READER, Stephen V. Tracy visits the fifth century B.C. to find out. Tracy compiles and translates the scattered, elusive primary sources relating to Pericles. He brings Athens's political atmosphere to life with archaeological evidence and the accounts of those close to Pericles, including Thucydides, Aristophanes, Herodotus, Protagoras, Sophocles, Lysias, Xenophon, Plato, and Plutarch. Readers will discover Pericles as a formidable politician, a persuasive and inspiring orator, and a man full of human contradictions. inventory #36957. …

Here Stephen Tracy offers a vivid, fast-paced narrative that serves as a reading guide to Homer's monumental epic. He not only provides translations of key passages and traces the evolution of major themes in the Odyssey, but also helps new readers to understand the artistry of one of the best tales ever told. Aimed at advanced readers as well, this book stresses an appreciation of how Homer has ordered his narrative, covering such topics as character interaction, family relationships, elements of poetic language, and the symbolic treatment of death, rebirth, growth, and knowledge. Given the controversy over the way the Odyssey was composed and handed down, Tracy concentrates on presenting the poem as a highly unified work. His analysis of the narrative structure reveals the epic to be arranged as a series of parallel journeys. The journey, seen here as a symbol of growth and self-knowledge, is among the major themes discussed in detail, along with the importance of women as overseers of life's journeys and the need for the sons of heroes to grow up worthy of their fathers.…

Hardcover. Condition: Like new. Like new. Orange cloth covered hardcover with black lettering to spine. Dust jacket has minor sun fading. 8vo. (6.5 x 0.75 x 9.5 inches) Clean text free of marks or underlining. B&W illustrations and photo plates. Includes list of illustrations, list of inscriptions studied, appendices [4], index to Greek texts, index of passages cited, index of persons and a general index. This is a detailed study of all available Attic inscriptions for the last real period of independence for the Athenians. Inscriptions comprise a major primary source for this period. Tracy has arranged them by individual letter-cutter and has provided photographs of all hands catalogued. In presenting the dossiers of the cutters, he offers many new readings, redatings, and interpretations. A number of fragments from the Athenian Agora are here presented for the first time. This study will serve as a sourcebook for the inscriptions of 229 to 86 and is particularly important for the evidence it offers on the dating of the texts. The photographs and descriptions of the lettering of thirty-eight cutters at work in the period will provide a guide for others dealing with late Hellenistic Attic inscriptions. In addition, the trends in lettering and letter-cutting identified by Tracy provide insights into the history of the period and into the craft letter-cutting.…
