1 Aris & PhilliPs ClAssiCAl TexTs EuripidEs MEdEA Introduction, Translation and Commentary by Judith Mossman PB: , 24.99/$38 HB: , 50/85 392p, 2011 Aris & PhilliPs ClAssiCAl TexTs SOPHOCLES SELECTED FRAGMENTARY PLAYS Volume II with Introductions, Translations and Commentaries by and T. H. Talboy PB: , 24.99/$38 HB: , 50/$85 320p, 2011 Euripides: Medea J. Mossman Euripides Medea is a compelling study of love turned to hatred and a rejected woman s burning desire for revenge. Its central, shocking, act of infanticide comes as the climax of a psychological thriller in which Euripides dramaturgical skills are shown at their finest and the audience s emotions are ruthlessly manipulated. Medea s conflicting urges and her dazzling rhetoric have exercised an enduring fascination over audiences and readers since the play s first performance. This new edition examines a wide range of aspects of the play, including text, performance, interpretation, Euripides sources, other lost plays about Medea, and Euripides portrayal of character and gender and it intends to emphasise analytical and literary appreciation. The facing translation aims to be both accurate and idiomatic. The commentary pursues the aims of the introduction in analysing the structure and development, annotating and appreciating poetic style, and explains the ideas; philological comment is reserved for instances where it affects the interpretation. Sophocles: Selected Fragmentary Plays, Volume II A. Sommerstein and T. Talboy The plays included are The Epigoni, Oenomaus, Palamedes, The Arrival of Nauplius, Nauplius and the Beacon, The Shepherds and Triptolemus. Three of these dramatise successive phases of the story of how a jealous and treacherous Odysseus brought about the judicial murder of the culture-hero Palamedes and of the terrible revenge taken by Palamedes father Nauplius. The volume also includes dramas about the first day s fighting of the Trojan War (The Shepherds), about the foundation of the mystery-cult of Eleusis (Triptolemus), about a young woman who contrived the death of her father in order to save her beloved (Oenomaus), and about a young man who killed his mother in obedience to the last injunctions of his father (The Epigoni or Eriphyle). The volume includes the text and translation of all the surviving fragments (and of a selection of other texts that give us information about these plays), with full commentary and an introduction to each play discussing the development of the myth and the likely content of the play so far as it can be reconstructed. a New From Aris & Phillips Aris & PhilliPs ClAssiCAl TexTs Terence Phormio Translation, Introduction and Commentary by Robert Maltby PB: , 19.99/$34 HB: , 50/$85 160p, 2012 Terence: Phormio R. Maltby Terence s Phormio, based on a Greek original by Apollodorus of Carystus, was produced towards the end of his short dramatic career in 161 BC. With its lively action, based on the traditional elements of love, deception and mistaken identity, the play provides an ideal introduction to the genre of New Comedy. What makes the Phormio unique amongst Terence s works is the central importance of the witty and scheming parasite who gives his name to the play and directs and controls its action throughout, even when absent from the stage. The use of the double plot with its two young men in love and two contrasting fathers provides ample scope for depth and variety of characterisation. The aim of Maltby's new edition is to bring out to the full Terence s skill in plot development and character portrayal which was to make the Phormio one of his most entertaining plays. 2

2 Aris & PhilliPs ClAssiCAl TexTs Aris & PhilliPs ClAssiCAl TexTs Herodas MiMiaMbs Edited with a Translation, Introduction and Commentary by Graham Zanker PB: , 19.99/$34 HB: , 50/$85 262pp, 2009 Herodas: Mimiambs G. Zanker Before the publication of the second-century AD papyrus in 1891, Herodas was known only through approximately twenty lines surviving in quotations found principally in Athenaios and Stobaios. The scant evidence that has survived suggests that he lived during the reign of Ptolemy Philadelphos ( BC), on the island of Kos, and was a direct contemporary of the greatest of the Hellenistic poets, Callimachus, Theocritus and Apollonius. His Mimiambs are short humorous dramatic scenes written in verse, often bawdy, reflecting everyday life and dialect. Zanker's edition explores what we do know of the poet including the language, dialect and metre that he uses. Each poem is translated and accompanied by an individual commentary with synopsis, information on date, setting, sources and purpose, as well as close examination of vocabulary and grammar. The first translation of the Mimiamboi since 1906, this edition reveals Herodas work in all its skill and subtlety. Lucretius: De Rerum Natura V 2Ne 2a New w From o m Aris i s & Phillips i l l i p s 3 Lucretius De Rerum Natura V Monica R. Gale PB: , 19.99/$34 HB: , 50/$85 222p, 2009 Aris & PhilliPs ClAssiCAl TexTs menander the shield and the arbitration Edited and Translated by Stanley Ireland PB: , 19.99/$34 HB: , 50/$85 224p, 2010 M. R. Gale Lucretius De Rerum Natura contains much of striking, contemporary relevance. In Book V the poet touches on many themes which may strike a chord with the twenty-first century reader: the fragility of our ecosystem, the corruption of political life, the futility of consumerism and the desirability of limiting our acquisitive instincts are all highly topical issues for us, as for the poem s original audience. It also offers a fascinating introduction to the world-view of the upper-class Roman of the first century BC. This edition helps to make Lucretius urgent and impassioned argument, and something of his remarkable poetic style, accessible to a wider audience, including those with little or no knowledge of Latin. Both the translation and commentary aim to explain the scientific argument of the book as clearly as possible; and to convey at least some impression of the poetic texture of Lucretius Latin. Menander: The Shield & The Arbitration S. Ireland In later Antiquity the social comedies of Menander ranked second in popularity only to the epics of Homer. However for centuries thereafter, they were deemed irretrievably lost before their discovery in the 20th century in the sands of Egypt. The new translations of the important fragmentary plays The Shield and The Arbitration presented here intend to provide readers with ready access to Menander s consummate sophistication in dramatic techniques. The accompanying translation aims at providing a version that is readable, while at the same time remaining close enough to the original to make comparison of the two a feasible proposition. It also aims at conveying the essential fluidity of Menander s text. The commentary, which is primarily founded on the translation, focuses on factors significant to the modern reader and concentrates upon dramatic development, providing the reader with pointers to appreciating the playwright s often subtle techniques of both dramatic development and character portrayal.

In this work, written in the aftermath of the sack of Rome in AD 410 by the Goths, Augustine replies to the pagans, who attributed the fall of Rome to the Christian religion and its prohibition of the worship of the pagan gods. Book V is of particular importance for Augustine s philosophy of history. In accounting for the prodigious growth and continuance of the Roman Empire, he dismisses secular theories of chance and fate in favour of the universal sway of divine Providence. In achieving this end, God has exploited the Roman virtues, and Christians are urged to emulate them. Both pagan and Christian leaders have contributed to Roman greatness. The book concludes with eulogies of the Christian leaders Constantine and Theodosius. Augustine: De Civitate Dei VI & VII Books VI and VII focus on the figure of Terentius Varro a man revered by Augustine s pagan contemporaries. By exploiting Varro s learned researches on Roman religion, Augustine condemns Roman religious practices and beliefs in order to refute pagan claims that the Roman deities had guaranteed a blessed life in the hereafter for their devotees. These books are therefore not only an invaluable source for the study of early Christianity but also for any student of Classical Rome, who is provided here with a detailed account of one of the most learned figures of Roman antiquity one whose own works have not survived in the same state. a New From Aris & Phillips Aris & PhilliPs ClAssiCAl TexTs AUGUSTINE De Civitate Dei (The City of God) BOOKS VIII & IX edited with an Introduction, Translation and Commentary by PB: , 24.99/$38 HB: , 50/$85 280p, 2012 Augustine: De Civitate Dei VIII & IX Before his conversion to Christianity, Augustine had devoted himself to the study of Platonism and in books VIII and IX he renews his acquaintance with this philosophy. The main topic of these books is demonology, with Augustine using the De Deo Socratis of Apuleis as the foundation of his exploration of this theme. He is keen to highlight the similarities between Platonism and Christianity and therefore puts forward the theory that the ideal mediator between God and man is Christ he who shares temporary mortality with humans and permanent blessedness with God. 4
