Softcover. Zustand: Very Good+. Spine sunned and a bit discolored. Faint shelfwear.; The ancient Greeks commonly resorted to magic spells to attract and keep lovers--as numerous allusions in Greek literature and recently discovered "voodoo dolls," magical papyri, gemstones, and curse tablets attest. Surveying and analyzing these various texts and artifacts, Christopher Faraone reveals that gender is the crucial factor in understanding love spells. There are, he argues, two distinct types of love magic: the curselike charms used primarily by men to torture unwilling women with fiery and maddening passion until they surrender sexually; and the binding spells and debilitating potions generally used by women to sedate angry or philandering husbands and make them more affectionate. Faraone's lucid analysis of these spells also yields a number of insights about the construction of gender in antiquity, for example, the "femininity" of socially inferior males and the "maleness" of autonomous prostitutes. Most significantly, his findings challenge the widespread modern view that all Greek men considered women to be naturally lascivious. Faraone reveals the existence of an alternate male understanding of the female as "naturally" moderate and chaste, who uses love magic to pacify and control the "naturally" angry and passionate male. This fascinating study of magical practices and their implications for perceptions of male and female sexuality offers an unusual look at ancient Greek religion and society.; 224 pages. …

Hardcover. Zustand: Like New. Like New. 1. In this study of poetic form in early Greek elegy, Christopher A. Faraone argues against the prevailing assumption that it was a genre of stichic poetry derived from or dependent on epic verse. Faraone emphasizes the fact that early elegiac poets composed their songs to the tune of an aulos (a kind of oboe) and used a five-couplet stanza as a basic unit of composition. He points out how knowledge of the elegiac stanza can give us insight into how these poets alternated between stanzas of exhortation and meditation, used co-ordinated pairs of stanzas to construct lengthy arguments about excellence or proper human government, and created generic set pieces that they could deploy in longer compositions. Faraone's close analysis of nearly all the important elegiac fragments will greatly enhance understanding and appreciation of this poetic genre. Bright, clean copy in fine dj.…

Rustica (tapa blanda). Zustand: New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Nuevo. 01. El oficio que habitamos. Testimonios y reflexiones de terapeutas gestálticas, viene a concluir un proyecto cuyo origen data del año 1997, cuando celebramos las XV Jornadas de la Asociación Española de Terapia Gestalt. La idea surge de una mesa redonda, formada por mujeres, en torno a lo que opinábamos acerca del enfoque gestáltico y a cómo había sido nuestra integración en un mundo ocupado mayoritariamente por hombres. . . . De esa reunión surgió un grupo de trabajo y fue tomando forma una idea que se ha hecho realidad en este libro: escribir acerca de nuestra experiencia y camino. . . . Cada artículo es la expresión de lo que en este momento, o en algún otro, nos ha preocupado y ocupado a las autoras. Todos ellos han sido escritos con el deseo de trasmitir algo de lo aprendido en nuestro recorrido, una parcela de nuestra experiencia en este enfoque y, por tanto, de nuestra vida: Primero aprendemos, recibimos, experimentamos, actuamos y, finalmente, transmitimos todo aquello que a lo largo de los años ha surgido dentro de nosotras. . . .

Se forma en Medicina Psicosomática en el Hospital Clínico de Madrid (1970-74). Formada en Terapia Gestalt, es formadora de terapeutas desde 1977, bajo los auspicios de A. Schnake y F. Huneeus.

Paperback. Zustand: New. The interpretation of animal sacrifice, now considered the most important ancient Greek and Roman religious ritual, has long been dominated by the views of Walter Burkert, the late J.-P. Vernant, and Marcel Detienne. No penetrating and general critique of their views has appeared and, in particular, no critique of the application of these views to Roman religion. Nor has any critique dealt with the use of literary and visual sources by these writers. This book, a collection of essays by leading scholars, incorporates all these subjects and provides a theoretical background for the study of animal sacrifice in an ancient context.…

Reprint, stapled. Zustand: Gut. pp. 209-245. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Cover slightly bumped, author's name handwritten on cover, otherwise a good and very clean copy. - From the text: Scholars have traditionally interpreted Hipponax fragment 128 (West) as an epic parody designed to belittle the grand pretensions and gluttonous habits of his enemy. I suggest, however, that this traditional reading ultimately falls short because of two unexamined assumptions: (1) that the meter and diction of the fragment are exclusively meant to recall epic narrative and not any other early hexametrical genre, and (2) that the descriptive epithets in lines 2 and 3 are the ad hoc comic creations of the poet and simply refer to the table manners of a glutton or a parasite. I argue instead that this fragment in several ways reflects the language, the meter and the performative goal of hexametrical chants or incantations designed to expel harmful famine demons or to escort human scapegoats from the city. I also suggest that the vivid and somewhat comic descriptions of the enemy in fragment 128 probably do not aim at his personal eating disorders, but rather they are drawn from two interrelated and generic features of archaic Greek thought: a tradition of describing famine-demons as insatiable eaters, and a popular theme in Greek invective which demonizes political enemies as rapacious pests who threaten to gobble up the commonwealth of the city and who therefore must be expelled from the community, precisely like a famine-demon. - Wikipedia: Christopher A.
