Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Neuware - Sather Classical Lectures, Volume Four: Epochs of Greek and Roman Biography provides an episodic yet insightful exploration of the development of biography as a literary genre in ancient Greece and Rome. Rooted in the principle articulated by Polybius, the work emphasizes the interconnectedness of history and the evolution of human ideas, particularly in the context of biographical writing. The author selects topics that address key problems and stages in the growth of biographical purpose, drawing connections between ancient and modern biographers, from Plutarch's enduring influence on psychoanalytic biographers to the continued relevance of classical ideals in contemporary biographical theory. While not attempting a complete history, the book offers a rich analysis of how biographical works reflect broader cultural and intellectual movements, and how the goals and methods of ancient biographers resonate with modern practices. This volume also stands out for its thorough academic approach, bolstered by an extensive array of footnotes and references designed not just for scholars, but for readers with a broad interest in biography. The book is the result of specialized study, offering a detailed bibliography that aims to engage those with a genuine enthusiasm for the genre. The author balances academic rigor with the intention to make ancient biography accessible and engaging, demonstrating the timeless relevance of ancient practices and offering a critical examination of their enduring influence. This makes the volume both a valuable resource for experts and an engaging read for those curious about the evolution of biographical writing. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1928.…
