This book was released on 2022-12-07 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Mubabinge Bilolo's work is long overdue in English. Brilliantly, he has demonstrated that African philosophy, through his discussion of the cosmos-theologies of Ancient Egypt, is the genesis of most of the fundamental questions regarding the enigma of God and humanity. I cannot praise this work enough as of first importance in the reconstruction of Africa's place in human sciences". (Dr. Molefi Kete Asante, Professor, Temple University; USA).

Download or read book Sophocles written by Jacques Jouanna and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2022-01-11 with total page 892 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here, for the first time in English, is celebrated French classicist Jacques Jouanna's magisterial account of the life and work of Sophocles. Exhaustive and authoritative, this acclaimed book combines biography and detailed studies of Sophocles' plays, all set in the rich context of classical Greek tragedy and the political, social, religious, and cultural world of Athens's greatest age, the fifth century. Sophocles was the commanding figure of his day. The author of Oedipus Rex and Antigone, he was not only the leading dramatist but also a distinguished politician, military commander, and religious figure. And yet the evidence about his life has, until now, been fragmentary. Reconstructing a lost literary world, Jouanna has finally assembled all the available information, culled from inscriptions, archaeological evidence, and later sources. He also offers a huge range of new interpretations, from his emphasis on the significance of Sophocles' political and military offices (previously often seen as honorary) to his analysis of Sophocles' plays in the mythic and literary context of fifth-century drama. Written for scholars, students, and general readers, this book will interest anyone who wants to know more about Greek drama in general and Sophocles in particular. With an extensive bibliography and useful summaries not only of Sophocles' extant plays but also, uniquely, of the fragments of plays that have been partially lost, it will be a standard reference in classical studies for years to come.

Book Female Homosexuality in Ancient Greece and Rome

Download or read book Female Homosexuality in Ancient Greece and Rome written by Sandra Boehringer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-06 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking study, among the earliest syntheses on female homosexuality throughout Antiquity, explores the topic with careful reference to ancient concepts and views, drawing fully on the existing visual and written record including literary, philosophical, and scientific documents. Even today, ancient female homosexuals are still too often seen in terms of a mythical, ethereal Sapphic love, or stereotyped as "Amazons" or courtesans. Boehringer's scholarly book replaces these clichés with rigorous, precise analysis of iconography and texts by Sappho, Plato, Ovid, Juvenal, and many other lyric poets, satirists, and astrological writers, in search of the prevailing norms, constraints, and possibilities for erotic desire. The portrait emerges of an ancient society to which today's sexual categories do not apply—a society "before sexuality"—where female homosexuality looks very different, but is nonetheless very real. Now available in English for the first time, Female Homosexuality in Ancient Greece and Rome includes a preface by David Halperin. This book will be of value to students and scholars of ancient sexuality and gender, and to anyone interested in histories and theories of sexuality.

Book Xenophon and the Graces of Power

Download or read book Xenophon and the Graces of Power written by Vincent Azoulay and published by Classical Press of Wales. This book was released on 2018-12-31 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of classical Greece's most worldly and lucid writers, Xenophon across his many works gave a restless criticism of power: democratic, oligarchic and autocratic. From military campaigns (in which he took part), through the great powers of his day (Sparta, Persia, Athens) to modes of control within the household, he observed intimately and often with partisan passion. In this work a leading French Hellenist, Vincent Azoulay, analyses across Xenophon's diverse texts the techniques by which the Greek writer recommends that leaders should manipulate. Through gifts and personal allure, though mystique, dazzling appearance, exemplary behaviour, strategic absences - and occasional terror, Xenophon analyses ways in which a powerful few might triumphantly replace the erratic democracies and self-indulgent oligarchies of his day. First published in French (in 2004) to international acclaim, this book is here translated for the first time, revised and updated.

Book Hom  re Et La Philosophie Grecque  Suivi de la Question Hom  rique Par G  Perrot

Download or read book Hom re Et La Philosophie Grecque Suivi de la Question Hom rique Par G Perrot written by G. Perrot and published by . This book was released on 2019-01-30 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les écrits d'Homère suscitèrent et continuent de susciter l'admiration des hommes, elles sont gravés dans l'histoire de l'humanité. L.-A. Binaut, brillant journaliste, en étudiant dans leurs contrastes les personnages de l'oeuvre et leurs environnements, nous permet de mieux apprécier la science philosophique d'Homère. Les amoureux de l'Iliade et l'Odyssée seront sans nul doute conquis par ce texte de grande qualité.Suivi de La question homérique par G.Perrot: En effet, du fait des maigres informations dont nous disposons sur ce poète, certains scientifiques ont remis en question sa paternité, ainsi que son existence même. EXTRAIT 1: Y a-t-il une philosophie dans Homère ? Trouve-t-on, dans cette poésie grande et simple, les éléments de la fonction rationaliste que la Grèce exerça dans l'histoire ? Y trouve-t-on l'origine intellectuelle de la lutte de l'Europe progressive contre l'Orient enterré dans ses symboles; lutte continuée, souvent par les armes, toujours par les idées, à travers la monarchie d'Alexandre, l'empire romain et la chrétienté du moyen-âge, jusqu'au temps présent, qui paraît appelé à la finir par la victoire définitive de la civilisation européenne ? Cette question reste encore à traiter. EXTRAIT 2: L'attention de tous ceux qui s'intéressent encore à l'antiquité vient d'être appelée de nouveau sur un problème qui divise les meilleurs esprits et qui, dans les premières années de ce siècle, a provoqué des débats passionnés sur ce que l'on est convenu d'appeler la Question homérique.Ce réveil d'une discussion qui a longtemps occupé la critique et qui n'est pas près de finir, nous le devrons à un ouvrage dont le premier volume, le seul qui ait paru jusqu'ici, est presque tout entier consacré à la poésie épique; nous voulons parler de cette Histoire de la littérature grecque, au frontispice de laquelle on fit les noms de deux frères, M. Alfred et Maurice Croiset. L'un et l'autre étaient bien préparés à l'entreprise en vue de laquelle ils ont associé leurs efforts.

Book The Notion of Heresy in Greek Literature in the Second and Third Centuries

Download or read book The Notion of Heresy in Greek Literature in the Second and Third Centuries written by Alain Le Boulluec and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-07-21 with total page 646 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired by analogies betwen the construction of heresy and the representation of madness described by Michael Foucault in in Histoire de la folie à l'âge classique (Madness and Civilization), The Notion of Heresy in Greek Literature in the Second and Third Centuries demonstrates how the concept of heresy emerges in the work of Justin Matyr. It shows that this invention created a concept capable of dominating every current suspected of endangering ecclesial harmony, and transformed the tradition of Greek historiography of philosophical schools by combining it with the apocalyptic theme of diabolical conspiracy. Le Boulluec examines how this model is refined by Irenaeus, then modified by Clement of Alexandria and Origen. First published in 1985 as d'hérésie dans la littérature grecque (IIe-IIIesiècles), this newly translated work includes a substantial new introduction surveying literature in the previous decades. In line wth Walter Bauer's pioneering book, which overturned the confessional model making heresy a later falsification of orthodoxy, it shows that the notion of heresy was invented in the second century and then refined in order to remove all legitimacy from diversity and pluralism in the fields of doctrine and practice. Le Boulluec studies rhetorical practices and polemical assimilations to highlight key debates on the relationship between philosophy, Christianity, and Judaism, and to examine the conflict of interpretations that drive the exegesis of the Bible in constructing an orthodoxy.

Book The Greeks

    Book Details:
  • Author : Paul Cartledge
  • Publisher : OUP Oxford
  • Release : 2002-10-10
  • ISBN : 0191577839
  • Pages : 248 pages

Download or read book The Greeks written by Paul Cartledge and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2002-10-10 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an original and challenging answer to the question: 'Who were the Classical Greeks?' Paul Cartledge - 'one of the most theoretically alert, widely read and prolific of contemporary ancient historians' (TLS) - here examines the Greeks and their achievements in terms of their own self-image, mainly as it was presented by the supposedly objective historians: Herodotus, Thucydides, and Xenophon. Many of our modern concepts as we understand them were invented by the Greeks: for example, democracy, theatre, philosophy, and history. Yet despite being our cultural ancestors in many ways, their legacy remains rooted in myth and the mental and material contexts of many of their achievements are deeply alien to our own ways of thinking and acting. The Greeks aims to explore in depth how the dominant group (adult, male, citizen) attempted, with limited success, to define themselves unambiguously in polar opposition to a whole series of 'Others' - non-Greeks, women, non-citizens, slaves and gods. This new edition contains an updated bibliography, a new chapter entitled 'Entr'acte: Others in Images and Images of Others', and a new afterword.
