Greek-English Lexicon Oxford University Press

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Liddell & Scott's Greek-English Lexicon (9/e 1940) is the most comprehensive and up-to-date ancient Greek dictionary in the world. It is used by every student of ancient Greek in the English-speaking world, and is an essential library and scholarly purchase there and in W. Europe and Japan. The main dictionary covers every surviving ancient Greek author and text discovered up to 1940, from the Pre-Classical Greek of the 11C - 8C BC (for example Homer and Hesiod), through Classical Greek (7C - 5C BC) to the Hellenistic Period, including the Greek Old and New Testaments. Entries list irregular inflections, and together with the definition, each sense includes citations from Greek authors illustrating usage. The Lexicon is Greek into English only, as are other ancient Greek dictionaries. This is the market expectation among both students and scholars. In 1968 the Lexicon was updated with a Supplement, which was available as a separate volume (until 1992) or bound together with the dictionary. Representing the culmination of 13 years' work, the new Revised Supplement is a complete replacement for the 1968 Supplement.Nearly twice the size of the 1968 edition, with over 20,000 entries, it adds to the dictionary words and forms from papyri and inscriptions discovered between 1940 and the 1990s as well as a host of other revisions, updatings, and corrections to the main dictionary. Linear B forms are shown within entries for the first time, and the Revised Supplement gives the dictionary a date-range from 1200 BC to 600 AD. It is fully cross-referenced to the main text but additions have been designed to be easily used without constant reference to the main text.

Arts of Making in Ancient Egypt Sidestone Press

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

This book provides an innovative analysis of the conditions of ancient Egyptian craftsmanship in the light of the archaeology of production, linguistic analysis, visual representation and ethnographic research.During the past decades, the "imaginative" figure of ancient Egyptian material producers has moved from "workers" to "artisans" and, most recently, to "artists". In a search for a fuller understanding of the pragmatics of material production in past societies, and moving away from a series of modern preconceptions, this volume aims to analyse the mechanisms of material production in Egypt during the Middle Bronze Age (2000-1550 BC), to approach the profile of ancient Egyptian craftsmen through their own words, images and artefacts, and to trace possible modes of circulation of ideas among craftsmen in material production.The studies in the volume address the mechanisms of ancient production in Middle Bronze Age Egypt, the circulation of ideas among craftsmen, and the profiles of the people involved, based on the material traces, including depictions and writings, the ancient craftsmen themselves left and produced.ContentsSculpture Workshops: who, where and for whom? - Simon ConnorThe Artistic Copying Network Around the Tomb of Pahery in Elkab (EK3): a New Kingdom case study - Alisee DevillersAntiquity Bound to Modernity.

Brahms: Violin Sonatas Brilliant Classics

Nagrania muzyczneMuzyka poważna

After their acclaimed complete recording of Beethoven?s violin sonatas on Brilliant Classics (BC 94310), Kristóf Baráti and Klára Würtz turn to the three sonatas by Johannes Brahms, an unique triptych of perfect works. All three sonatas are among the most frequently performed works for violin and piano, beloved by performers and listeners alike; and for all their delightful variety each sonata builds an impressively architectural unity and addresses itself to us, personally and collectively, with an almost metaphysical depth of inquiry and understanding.Today the First Sonata in G major is considered by many violinists to be one of the most beautiful sonatas ever written for their instrument, with a finale in which Brahms seems to stir up the memory of long-forgotten feelings. The dialogue between a recurring theme on the violin and an undercurrent of semiquavers in the piano, like raindrops, derives from the Regenlied, Op.59 No.3, (?Rainsong?) which Brahms had composed six years earlier to words by Klaus Groth: ?Pour, rain, pour down / Awaken again in me those dreams / That I dreamt in childhood?. Brahms?s friend Billroth wrote to the composer about the Second, ?The whole sonata has immense grace and kindness, a lovely child, so dear and charming!? Brahms wrote his Third Violin Sonata in the same year as the Second but for some reason he withheld it, perhaps himself taken aback by its violent emotional and dynamic range to which Baráti and Würtz do full dramatic justice.Other information:- Recorded in 2013.- The three violin sonatas of Brahms are core repertoire for every violinist. Each a masterwork in its genre it offers vintage Brahms: lyrical, mellifluous melodic lines, sumptuous harmonics, instrumental richness and that unmistakable Brahmsian mixture of passion, melancholy and intimacy.- A deeply musical performance by two Hungarians: Kristóf Baráti and Klára Würtz, who already received rave reviews for their recording of the complete violin sonatas by Beethoven (BC 94310): ?reference recording? (the leading German daily newspaper), 5 Stars (Diapason), ?Amazing..once you?ve heard Baráti and Würtz you?ll never listen to anyone else again? (Fanfare), ?Truly exceptional..dazzling range of bow strokes and ear-ringing intonations?deeply compelling emotional narratives?a highly distinguished release? (The Strad on Baráti?s Ysaye recording, BC 94678).- Recorded in the spectacular acoustics of the new Concert Hall in Pécs, Hungary.- ?Lest I also be guilty of ignoring Baráti?s partner in these miraculous performances, let me say that pianist Klára Würtz is every bit as amazing a player as Baráti. Her interplay with him and the violin part is as attentive and attention-grabbing as I?ve ever heard? (Fanfare).

Natural History of Latin Oxford University Press

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Beginning in Rome around 600 BC, Latin became the language of the civilized world and remained so for more than two millennia. French, Spanish, Italian, and Romanian are among its progeny and it provides the international vocabulary of law and life science. No known language, including English - itself enriched by Latin words and phrases - has achieved such success and longevity. Tore Janson tells its history from origins to present. Brilliantly conceived and written with the same light touch as his bestselling history of languages, A Natural History of Latin is a masterpiece of adroit synthesis. The author charts the expansion of Latin in the classical world, its renewed importance in the Middle Ages, and its survival into modern times. He shows how spoken and written Latin evolved in different places and its central role in European history and culture. He ends with a concise Latin grammar and lists of Latin words and phrases still in common use. Considered elitist and irrelevant in the second half of the twentieth century and often even banned from schools, Latin is now enjoying a huge revival of interest across Europe, the UK, and the USA.Tore Janson offers persuasive arguments for its value and gives direct access to its fascinating worlds, past and present.

Aesop's Fables for Young and Old tredition

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Aesop's Fables, also called Aesopica, are a collection of fables attributed to Aesop, a slave and storyteller who is said to have lived between 620 and 564 BC in ancient Greece. Once upon a time, long ago in a far-off land, all things and beings not only had consciousness, but could also communicate in the same language. These stories contain distilled wisdom and can be used with great effect. They teach moral lessons, above all about love and respect, and greed and all the inner demons that constantly plague us. The allegories in the fables are sophisticated and rich. Normally, animals are the protagonists, perhaps because the depiction of human behavior, especially the contemptible kind, reflected in our animal world companions, makes it easier for us to recognize the root of evil. That is Aesop's world. The key to it lies in the observation that mutual understanding does not arise simply from all things understanding each other; no, that's where the fun begins. The fables are good reading for children. But at the same time, they are amazingly entertaining for adults. In short, they directly target human everyday experiences that everyone knows and makes every day.The book at A2 language level offers a parallel translation that allows the reader to learn the German language in a shorter time. At a glance, it is immediately apparent what unknown words mean. The audio files are included and available online.

Plays and Fragments Oxford University Press

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Menander was the founding father of European comedy. From Ralph Roister Doister to What the Butler Saw, from Henry Fielding to P. G. Wodehouse, the stock motifs and characters can be traced back to him. The greatest writer of Greek New Comedy, Menander (c.341-290 BC) wrote over one hundred plays but until the twentieth century he was known to us only by short quotations in ancient authors. Since 1907 papyri found in the sand of Egypt have brought to light more and more fragments, many substantial, and in 1958 the papyrus text of a complete play was published, The Bad-Tempered Man (Dyskolos) . His romantic comedies deal with the lives of ordinary Athenian families, and they are the direct ancestors not only of Roman comedy but also of English comedy from the Renaissance to the present day. This new verse translation is accurate and highly readable, providing a consecutive text with supplements based on the dramatic situation and surviving words in the damaged papyri. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe.Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
