Description: ISBN10: 0198147740, ISBN13: 9780198147749, [publisher: New York : Oxford University Press] Softcover XII, 520 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Minimally rubbed, allover very good and clean. / Minimal berieben, ingesamt sehr gut und sauber. - CONTENTS: Abbreviations -- 1. Introduction -- The Seneca Problem -- Snares and Delusions -- A Possible Approach -- PART ONE -- 2. The First Fifty Years -- 3. The‘Minister’of Nero -- Seneca as Amicus Principis -- The Government during Seneca’s Ascendancy -- 4. Ideology for a New Regime -- PART TWO -- Introduction -- 5. Seneca on the Fall of the Republic -- 6. The Philosopher on the Principate -- 7. The Provincial on the Provinces -- 8. Seneca on Slavery -- 9. Seneca Praedives -- 10. The Philosopher on Political Participation -- 11. Mors Diu Meditata -- Conclusion. - The connection between Seneca’s prose works and his career as a first-century Roman statesman is problematic. Although he writes in the first person, he tells us little of his external life or of the people and events that formed its setting. Miriam Griffin addresses the problem by first reconstructing Seneca’s career using only outside sources and his de Clementia and Ipocolocyntosis, whose political purposes are undisputed. In the second part of the book she studies Seneca’s treatment of subjects of political significance, including his views on slavery, provincial policy, wealth, and suicide. On the whole, the work of the philosopher is found to illuminate the work of the statesman; but notable exceptions emerge, and the links that are revealed vary from theme to theme, and rarely accord with traditional, autobiographical interpretations of Seneca's works. - Miriam Griffin is Tutor in Ancient History and Fellow of Somerville College, Oxford. ISBN 9780198147749 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 693 Reprinted (First issued as paperback in 1992). [Berlin, Germany] [Publication Year: 2003]

Price: USD 140.56
Dealer: AbebooksAU, AussieBookSeller
Description: ISBN10: 0198147740, ISBN13: 9780198147749, [publisher: Oxford University Press, Oxford] Softcover Paperback. For this Clarendon Paperback, Dr Griffin has written a new Postscript to bring the original book fully up to date. She discusses further important and controversial questions of fact or interpretation in the light of the scholarship of the intervening years and provides additional argument where necessary. The connection between Seneca's prose works and his career as a first-century Roman statesman is problematic. Although he writes in thefirst person, he tells us little of his external life or of the people and events that formed its setting. Miriam Griffin addresses the problem by first reconstructing Seneca's career using only outsidesources and his de Clementia and Apocolocyntosis, whose political purposes are undisputed. In the second part of the book she studies Seneca's treatment of subjects of political significance, including his views on slavery, provincial policy, wealth, and suicide. On the whole, the word of the philosopher is found to illuminate the work of the statesman, but notable exceptions emerge, and the links that are revealed vary from theme to theme and rarely accord with traditionalautobiographical interpretations of Seneca's works. Griffin reconstructs Seneca's career using only outside sources and his de Clementia and Apocolocyntosis. In the second part of the book she studies Seneca's treatment of subjects of political significance, including his views on slavery, provincial policy, wealth, and suicide.
