Book The Sacred and Civil Calendar of the Athenian Year

Download or read book The Sacred and Civil Calendar of the Athenian Year written by Jon D. Mikalson and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From epigraphical, archaeological, and literary evidence Jon D. Mikalson has here assembled all relevant data concerning the dates of Athenian festivals, religious ceremonies, and legislative assemblies. This information has been used to revise and update our knowledge of the calendar as it reflects Athenian life. The facts and conclusions that emerge from the author's analysis correct some earlier assumptions. He brings to light new information concerning the meeting days of the Athenian Assembly and the Council, and establishes the days of the monthly festivals. Annual festivals are either dated exactly or fixed within closer time limits. The result of the author's rigorous approach is a collection of reliable evidence as to what religious and secular activities occurred on specific days of the Athenian year. Originally published in 1976.

Book The Thesmophoriazusae

    Book Details:
  • Author : Aristophanes
  • Publisher : Simon and Schuster
  • Release : 2012-11-01
  • ISBN : 1625580932
  • Pages : 45 pages

Download or read book The Thesmophoriazusae written by Aristophanes and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-11-01 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thesmophoriazusae was performed in Athens in 411 BCE, most likely at the City Dionysia, and is among the most brilliant of Aristophanes' eleven surviving comedies. It is the story of the crucial moment in a quarrel between the tragic playwright Euripides and Athens' women, who accuse him of slandering them in his plays and are holding a meeting at one of their secret festivals to set a penalty for his crimes. Thesmophoriazusae is a brilliantly inventive comedy, full of wild slapstick humour and devastating literary parody, and is a basic source for questions of gender and sexuality in late 5th-century Athens and for the popular reception of Euripidean tragedy.

Book The Invention of Athens

    Book Details:
  • Author : Nicole Loraux
  • Publisher : Princeton University Press
  • Release : 2006-03-17
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 554 pages

Download or read book The Invention of Athens written by Nicole Loraux and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2006-03-17 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In The Invention of Athens, her first book, Nicole Loraux launched her exploration of Greek - and more particularly Athenian - self-representations: in this case, through the funeral oration. Coordinating past, present, and future generations, the funeral oration emerges in Loraux's account as the state institution and genre through which official memory is performed, cultivated, and transmitted. In her anatomy of the institution and genre of the epitaphics, Loraux illuminates the politics, myths, and gendered discourses and institutions of Antiquity. Loraux shows us again and again how the field of representation, particularly as it emerges in a democratic terrain, is the field of contest. Loraux's work was always concerned with the politics of memory - What shall be remembered? And how? And by whom? And for whom? - the way in which the city represents itself, how it constitutes itself, how it remembers and members itself are among Loraux's central preoccupations, and she makes them ours."--BOOK JACKET.
