ABOUT THIS BOOK: In 1986, reviewing recent work on the Bucolics, William S. Anderson wrote, 'Van Sickle, Design, has produced the most persuasive portrait of the Eclogues, arguing cogently for what he calls an "ideological order".' The Design of Virgil's Bucolics argues that Virgil composed his ten eclogues as parts of a system: the Book of Bucolics conceived as a concerted whole. The report of frequent theatre presentations showed that Virgil caught attention withdramatic flair, masking an ideological programme that grew to encompass motifs of a returning Golden Age and new myth, providing cover for the Caesarist regime, casting the poet as a prophet, vates, and laying groundwork for the Georgics and Aeneid. Design argues, too, that ideology implied a poetic programme and that bucolic drama was metapoetic, starting with the discovery that already the first eclogue rewrote Theocritus with metapoetic point, despite the scholarly fad that styled Virgil's programme as Callimachean and postponed it to the sixth eclogue. Each eclogue in factmade a distinct contribution, the tenth complementing the newpolitical mythology of the first half book with the new myth of Arcadian poetics. An extensive new Introduction to this second edition reviews developments and shortfalls in recent work on the Bucolics.(Publisher).…

Reprint, stapled. Zustand: Gut. pp. 107-128. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Last page soiled, otherwise good and very clean. - From the text: The relativity of reading is, I take it, implied in the program of these seminars, for they marshall in a few months space a variety of readers, who preach and practice widely disparate critical codes. The variety may be especially patent in the present paper, which happens to take issue directly with its immediate predecessor. But before entering into this disparity and its merits, let us begin with a more general meditation on reading, in the form of a theoretical parable on the nature and limits of interpretive practice itself.

Reprint, stapled. Zustand: Gut. pp. 487-508. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Cover rubbed and bumped, light-margined, author's name underlined on cover, otherwise clean. - From the text: Twenty-three verses survive from the poetic preface that Catullus wrote for his translation of The Lock of Berenice. In nineteen of them, an attribute is separated from the word it qualifies by an intervening word or phrase. The separated elements occur regularly at the same positions in the line, forming a set of patterns which predominate in the structure of the poem. In the most frequent pattern, an attribute appears at the end of the first half-line, before the principal (penthemi-meral) cesura, and a substantive at the end of the line : etsi me assiduo confectum cura dolore, (1) In a second pattern, regularly recurring but by no means as frequent, the attribute stands at the beginning of the line and the substantive at the end : Troia Rhoeteo quern subter litore tellus. (7) The use of patterns in the preface is unique; but it has partial precedents, possibly a significance for the history of elegy, and a coherence in itself, all of which will concern us here.

Reprint, stapled. Zustand: Gut. pp. 1-15. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Cover slightly rubbed, author's name underlined on cover, otherwise clean. - From the text: Among the great poets of archaic Greece, Archilochus is one of those least well preserved. Only now has a new papyrus at Cologne given us our first idea how a whole poem by him might have run. Although the beginning does not survive, the situation is clear. As the fragment takes up, a lover is telling how a young girl tried to dissuade him. He goes on to say that in turn he proposed a compromise and with gentle determination carried it out.

Reprint, stapled. Zustand: Gut. p. 1-20. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - With dedication by the author to H. Temporini. - Binding light-margined, 2 staple holes top right, otherwise very good and clean. - From the text: Virgils fourth pastoral and the Idyll of Theocritus that is usually printed fourth have sixty-three lines each. The product of nine and seven figures also in the first Idyll, which is formed in sections of sixty-three lines plus sixty-three lines and nineteen of refrain plus seven lines : 63 + 63(19) + 7. In the second pastoral of Virgil, the passionate singer, Corydon, has sixty-three lines, enclosed within two five-line sections that establish the context of nature and of ordinary, productive work from which love tends to detach the singer: 5 + 63 + 5. The name of Corydon is a direct, obvious link between the fourth Idyll and the second pastoral. Other relations between the first and fourth Idylls and the second and fourth pastorals would be the matter for a longer discourse. Number is more perplexing than revealing to the average reader of ancient poetry, who admits its function grudgingly in Dante and Villon, where the thirty-three of the years of the life of Christ assumes undeniable importance, but would not have it that the ancient poets could be so calculating. The present essay then will limit itself to a brief account of the relation between theme and number in two ancient poems. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550.…
