Book A Translation of the Grecian Antiquities of Lambert Bos

Download or read book A Translation of the Grecian Antiquities of Lambert Bos written by Lambert Bos and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Translation of the Grecian Antiquities of Lambert Bos: To Which Is Added an Appendix Potter and others. These, for the most part, have been inserted as they are condensed by Cleveland in his Epitome of Grecian Antiquities, published in America. The chapters on the and Education at Sparta, were chiefly compiled from Cragius, ale Republica La cedcemom'orum; the tables of money, weights, and measures, from Dr. Arbuthnot. It was deemed un necessary to increase the bulk of the work by subjoin ing the authorities to the Appendix, as they may easily be consulted in the originals. As to the translation, it was at first intended only to have reprinted that by Mr. Stockdale, with the addition of Zeune's notes: but this was afterwards found imprac ticable, as the language, generally, was too antiquated, and the translation itself incorrect. We have, however, made his the basis of the present work, although nearly one half has been translated afresh. The occasional additions in the body of the work from Heeren, Boeckh, &c. Are marked with an obelisk in brackets. The trans lator, already under great obligations to Mr. Bailey. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The Antiquities of Egypt

Download or read book The Antiquities of Egypt written by Diodore de Sicile and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on 1990-01-01 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diodorus Siculus, a prolific Greek historian of the first century B.C., wrote a detailed account of ancient Egypt for his contemporaries. Even then, Egyptian civilization was ancient, stretching back to eras far more remote to him than Greek civilization is to us. Egypt was a land of mystery to the Greeks. Its pyramids were inexplicable, its writings undecipherable, its religion unfathomable. Its strange laws and stranger customs, such as mummification, were perplexing. The very land itself was mysterious: no one knew the source of the Nile or why it overflowed its banks each year with never a drop of rain. The history and mysteries of Egypt were the sole subject of the Book I of the Library of History, Diodorus' encyclopedic attempt to gather all the historical knowledge of the world into one vast book. The Antiquities of Egypt is the first translation of Diodorus' treatise prepared especially for the general reader but it will appeal to a wide range of scholars and specialists as well. The only other English version in print is a literal accompaniment to the edited Greek text, published over fifty years ago. This new translation is accurate and easy to read, while the notes and appendices amplify and elucidate the text setting the narrative in historical and cultural perspective for the nonspecialist. The illustrations add a graphic support to the text. Students and teachers of ancient history, Egyptology, archeology, and anthropology will find Antiquities of Egypt both accessible and valuable. Specialists in literature, mythology, and comparative religion will find it absorbing and useful introduction to early source material in their fields of study. Edwin Murphy is an independent scholar specializing in ancient and medieval history. He is employed in the Treasury Department, Washington D.C. Murphy has also translated Book II of Diodorus' Library of History, The Antiquities of Asia, also published by Transaction.

Book Three Ancient Geographical Treatises in Translation

Download or read book Three Ancient Geographical Treatises in Translation written by Duane W. Roller and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-09 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a translation and commentary on the works of three geographers from Greco-Roman antiquity: Hanno of Carthage, from around 500 BC; the author of the Periodos Dedicated to King Nikomedes, from the last half of the second century BC; and Avienus, from the fourth century AD. The modern translations of texts in this book represent 1,000 years of Greco-Roman geographical scholarship, and thus provide an overview of the discipline from its beginnings to late antiquity. Readers will learn about the development of Greek geography, and the earliest adventures outside the Mediterranean into the Atlantic, as far south as the tropics and north toward the Arctic. These explorations make for fascinating stories about early human endeavors into an unknown world. Three Ancient Geographical Treatises in Translation offers specialists new information about Greek exploration and a modern translation of significant ancient texts, while non-specialist scholars and undergraduate students with an interest in Greco-Roman literature and ancient geography will also find the volume useful and accessible.

Book The Biblical Antiquities of Philo

Download or read book The Biblical Antiquities of Philo written by M. R. James and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Biblical Antiquities of Philo: Now First Translated From the Old Latin Version I. The book now presented to English readers has never been translated before: not only is this so, but the very existence of it has remained un known to the great mass of students for over three hundred years, although it was printed no less than five times in the course of the sixteenth century. What is it, and why is it worth reviving after SO long a period Of oblivion? It is a Bible history, reaching, in its present imperfect form, from Adam to the death Of Saul. It has come to us only in a Latin translation (made from Greek, and that again from a Hebrew original), and by an accident the name of the great Jewish philosopher of the first century, Philo, has been attached to it. Let me say at once that the attribution of it to him is wholly unfounded, and quite ridiculous: never theless I shall use his name in italics (poi/o) as a convenient short title.
