Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Deipnosophists, Vol. 2 of 3: Banquet of the Learned Athenaeus 1. And when the Banquet was now finished, the cynics, thinking that the festival of the Phagesia was being celebrated, were delighted above all things, and Cynulcus said, - While we are supping, O Ulpian, since it is on words that you are feasting us, I propose to you this question, - In what author do you find any mention of the festivals called Phagesia, and Phagesiposia? And he, hesitating, and bidding the slaves desist from carrying the dishes round, though it was now evening, said, - I do not recollect, I you very wise man, so that you may tell us yourself, in order that you may sup more abundantly and more pleasantly. And he rejoined, - If you will promise to thank me when I have told you, I will tell you. And as he agreed to thank him, he continued; - Clearchus, the pupil of Aristotle, but a Solensian by birth, in the first book of his treatise on Pictures, (for I recollect his very expressions, because I took a great fancy to them, ) speaks as follows: -"Phagesia - but some call the festival Phagesiposia - but this festival has ceased, as also has that of the Phapsodists, which they celebrated about the time of the Dionysiac festival, in which every one as they passed by sang a hymn to the god by way of doing him honour." This is what Clearchus wrote. And if you doubt it, my friend, I, who have got the book, will not mind lending it to you. And you may learn a good deal from it, and get a great many questions to ask us out of it. For he relates that Callias the Athenian composed a Grammatical Tragedy, from which Euripides in his Medea, and Sophocles in his dipus, derived their choruses and the arrangement of their plot. 2. And when all the guests marvelled at the literary accomplishments of Cynulcus, Plutarch said, - In like manner there used to be celebrated in mj own Alexandria a Flagonbearing festival, which is mentioned by Eratosthenes in his treatise entitled Arsinoe.

Book The Learned Banqueters  Volume VII

Download or read book The Learned Banqueters Volume VII written by Athenaeus and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2011-01-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Learned Banqueters, Athenaeus describes a series of dinner parties at which the guests quote extensively from Greek literature. The work (which dates to the very end of the second century CE) is amusing reading and of extraordinary value as a treasury of quotations from works now lost. Athenaeus also preserves a wide range of information about different cuisines and foodstuffs, the music and entertainments that ornamented banquets, and the intellectual talk that was the heart of Greek conviviality. S. Douglas Olson has undertaken to produce a complete new edition of the work, replacing the previous Loeb Athenaeus (published under the title Deipnosophists).

Book John Selden

    Book Details:
  • Author : Reid Barbour
  • Publisher : University of Toronto Press
  • Release : 2003-01-01
  • ISBN : 9780802087768
  • Pages : 448 pages

Download or read book John Selden written by Reid Barbour and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Selden: Measures of the Holy Commonwealth in Seventeenth-Century England is the first text in over a century to examine the whole of Selden's works and thought. Reid Barbour brings a new perspective to Selden studies by stressing Selden's strong commitment to a 'religious society,' by taking a closer and more sustained look at his poetic interests, and by systematically examining his Latin publications (particularly those using Jewish sources). Offering critical close readings of Selden's oeuvre, Barbour posits that the overriding aim of Selden's career was to bolster religious society in the face of its imminent demise. He argues that Selden's scholarly career was committed to resolving an essentially religious question about how best to establish the holy commonwealth in both lawfulness and spiritual abundance. Perhaps the greatest strength of Barbour's analysis emerges from his overall interpretation of Selden's corpus within the context of what the author calls a "religious society"; this approach emphasizes the religious commitments of Selden and subverts earlier readings of him as a cynical, skeptical, secular thinker who attacked, rather than upheld, a Judeo-Christian model of society. Engaging in style and substantive in analysis, Barbour's John Selden will add considerably to the limited body of work on this important seventeenth-century savant.
