Classics & Ancient History 2013/2014

Message from the Editors:

Perhaps more than any other discipline, classical studies encapsulates an active and sometimes unpredictable dynamic between old and new. Classics has always meant an engagement with the ancient world. But nowadays it means more: and the close study of what antiquity signifies for contemporary culture is perhaps one of the reasons why, within the humanities, modern classics has become such a powerhouse of innovation. The audacious paradox of twenty-first century classical studies is that, while focused on the past, it is also deeply concerned with the present and future. How does antiquity shape the world around us? How do classical texts, authors and artefacts help us to understand moral, religious and scientific questions? What is a good life, or a life well lived? These questions are more than just academic, since the issues of morality and meaning with which Socrates and Plato once wrestled are just as relevant to all of us as they were to ancient Athens.

The new I.B.Tauris catalogue attempts both to represent and explore this bold, fluid interaction between the old and the new. Established series like Ancients and Moderns and New Directions in Classics are centred on the ways in which antiquity can be unpacked with contemporary agendas in mind. Meanwhile, our new textbook series Understanding Classics (pp. 2-3) sets ancient thinkers in context for the needs of current students. Further stand-alone titles on the Amazons (p. 4), the Aeneid (p. 5) and the Argonauts (p. 4) testify to our interest not just in synergies between modern and ancient but in reaching out to all readers with an interest in classics, general as well as academic. And our longstanding interest in Persia and the ancient Near East finds fresh expression in the publication of a seminal work translated from the French, Jean Perrot’s The Palace of Darius at Susa (p. 13) and in Michael Seymour’s ambitious reception history of Babylon, the original sin city (p.14).

We hope you find this latest programme both interesting and stimulating, and look forward to your own proposals and projects.

ClAssiCs & AnCient History 2013–2014

GreeCe & roMe / unDerstAnDinG ClAssiCs series

understanding classicsEdited by Richard Stoneman, University of Exeter

Understanding Classics is a specially commissioned series which aims to introduce the outstanding authors and thinkers of antiquity to a wide audience of appreciative modern readers, whether undergraduate students of classics, literature, philosophy and ancient history or generalists interested in the classical world.

Each volume – written by leading figures internationally – will examine the historical significance of the writer or writers in question; their social, political and cultural contexts; their use of language, literature and mythology; extracts from their major works; and their reception in later European literature, art, music and culture.

In seArCh of The ArgonAuTsThe Remarkable History of Jason and the Golden FleeceHelen lovattUniversity of NottinghamFew classical stories are as romantic as that of Jason and the Golden Fleece. The stirring tale of an adventurer who was also a disenfranchised king’s son and daring sea-captain has resonated through the ages. But it speaks to us of more: of sex and gender; of identity and race; of colonisation and conquest. From Pindar to J.W. Waterhouse, from Max Beckmann to Ray Harryhausen and from Mary Renault to Ian Seraillier, the epic poem of Apollonius of Rhodes has inspired later in-terpretations as rich, salty and diverse as the source text itself. Helen Lovatt here unravels, like untangled sea-kelp, the diverse strands of the narrative and its numerous and fascinating afterlives. Her book will prove endlessly enter-taining to those who love classical literature and myth.256 PAGes 234 x 156MM sePteMBer 20149781848857148 HArDBACk £19.50

AmAzonsthe legendary warrior women of AntiquityDavid Braund, University of Exeter

The idea of the Amazons is one of the most romantic and resonant in all antiquity. The Greeks were fascinated by the notion of a race of fierce female fighters: pitiless battles between the Athenians and Amazons echo through the Archaic period. In his vibrant new book, David Braund shows how these lithe warriors captivated moderns as well as ancients, unleashing, with their deadly arrows, a myth so powerful that from the medieval and Renaissance eras to the present it held its recipients spellbound. 224 PAGes 228 x 155MM sePteMBer 20149781780769561 HArDBACk £20.00

The lAsT TrojAn heroA Cultural History of Virgil’s AeneidPhilip HardieUniversity of Cambridge

After the Odyssey and the Iliad, Virgil’s masterpiece is arguably the greatest classical text in the whole of Western literature. The poet’s stirring tale of a refugee Trojan prince, ‘torn from Libyan waves’ to found a new homeland in Italy, has provided much fertile material for writings on colonialism and for discourses of ethnic and national identity. The Aeneid has even been viewed as a template and a source of philosophical justification for British and American imperialism and adventurism. In his major new book Philip Hardie explores the many remarkable afterlives – ancient, medieval and modern – of the Aeneid in literature, music, politics, the visual arts and film.256 PAGes 234 x 156MM MArCH 20149781780762470 HArDBACk £25.00

shIps And sIlver, TAxes And TrIbuTeA fiscal History of Archaic AthensHans van wees, University College London

Historians since Herodotus and Thucydides have claimed that the year 483 BCE marked a turning point in the history of Athens. But in his groundbreaking new book, Hans van Wees argues otherwise. The author reconstructs the scattered evidence for all aspects of public finance, in archaic Greece at large and early Athens in particular, to reveal that a complex machinery of public funding and spending was in place as early as the reforms of Solon in 594 BCE. 224 PAGes 216 x 134MM sePteMBer 20139781780766867 HArDBACk £56.00liBrAry of ClAssiCAl stuDies, Vol. 5

new dIreCTIons In ClAssICsEdited by Duncan F. Kennedy, Charles Martindale and Shane Butler

University of Bristol

Published in association with the Institute of Greece, Rome and the Classical Tradition

In the last generation Classics has changed almost beyond recognition. The subject as taught thirty years ago involved enormous concentration on just two periods: 5th century Athens and late Republican Rome. There was no reception, virtually no study of women or popular culture, and little attention given to late antiquity. Today, Classics at its best again has an unusually broad interdisciplinary scope, and reaches out to the arts and humanities generally as well as beyond. It is just such a ‘New Classics’ that this exciting series seeks to promote – an open-minded Classics committed to debate and dialogue, with a leading role in the humanities; a Classics neither antiquarian nor crudely presentist; a Classics of the present, but also of the future. New Directions in Classics seeks to do something fresh, and showcase the work of writers who are setting new agendas at the frontiers of the subject. It aims for a wide readership amongst all those, both within the academy and outside, who want to engage seriously with ideas.

‘The modern world continues to be indebted to ancient Greece and Rome, and indeed, as Baudelaire knew, modernity always defines itself in relation to antiquity. So this series of lively and readable short books, by an exciting international team

of scholars, is exceedingly timely.’ – CHARLES MARTINDALE, Professor of Latin, Dean of the Faculty of Arts, University of Bristol

‘Ancients and Moderns is an admirable publishing venture. The issues are vital and the writers addressing them are all outstanding.’

– ROBERT FOWLER, Henry Overton Wills Professor of Greek, University of Bristol

‘The books are direct and engaging in style and cutting edge in content, which makes them especially well-suited to students. An excellent and highly recom-

mended series. – ALEx PURVES, Associate Professor of Classics, UCLA

The shift from polytheism to monotheism changed the world radically.

Temple of The worldSanctuaries, Cults, and Mysteries of Ancient EgyptMiroslav VernerCharles University

Despite the prominence of ancient temples in the landscape of Egypt, books about them are surprisingly rare. This new and essential pub-lication from a prominent Czech scholar answers the need for a study that goes beyond temple architecture to examine the spiritual, economic, and political aspects of these institutions and the dominant roles they played. Miroslav Verner presents a deeper and more complex study of major ancient Egyptian religious centers, their principal temples, their rise and decline, their religious doctrines, cults, rituals, feasts, and mysteries. Also discussed are the various categories of priests, the organization of the priesthood, and its daily services and customs. 624 PAGes 234 x 156MM sePteMBer 20139789774165634 HArDBACk £39.95tHe AMeriCAn uniVersity in CAiro Press*

Penned by a scholar who was personally involved in research into the enigmatic young pharaoh, this comprehensive and fully il-lustrated new study reviews the current state of our knowledge about the life, death, and burial of Tutankhamun in light of the latest investigations and newest technol-ogy. Zahi Hawass places the king in the broader context of Egyptian history, unraveling the intricate and much debated relationship between various members of the royal family, and the circumstances surrounding the turbulent Amarna period. He also succinctly explains the religious background and complex beliefs in the afterlife that defined and informed many features of Tutankhamun’s tomb. The history of the exploration of the Valley of the Kings is discussed, as well as the background and mutual relationships of the main protagonists. 320 PAGes 220 x 280MM noVeMBer 20139789774166372 HArDBACk £29.95tHe AMeriCAn uniVersity in CAiro Press*

The pAlACe of dArIus AT susAThe Great Royal Residence of Achaemenid PersiaJean Perrot (ed)introduction by John Curtis, The British Museum

The palace complex of the Persian King Darius I, the Great (522-486 BCE), provides unique evidence of the sophistication of Achaeme-nid architecture and construction. This palace, built 2500 years ago in western Iran, lay at the centre of the Persian Empire. First rediscov-ered in 1851, the palace of Darius was partly excavated over the next century. But it was only field research between 1969 and 1979 by the noted French archaeologist Jean Perrot which revealed the site’s full dimension and complexity. The discovery and excavation of the palace, which this book records, thus casts a new light on the beginnings of the Achaemenid period.528 PAGes 300 x 230MM July 20139781848856219 HArDBACk £60.00i.B.tAuris in AssoCiAtion witH tHe irAn HeritAGe founDAtion

The unearthing in today’s Iraq (in 1879) of a clay cylinder-shaped decree from Cyrus the Great stands in the same tradition of game-changing discoveries from antiquity as Hammurabi’s famous law code or the intact tomb of Tutankhamun. This important volume is the first to discuss the Cylinder and its remarkable history.160 PAGes 246 x 189MM MArCH 20139781780760636 HArDBACk £25.00i.B.tAuris in AssoCiAtion witH tHe irAn HeritAGe founDAtion

bAbylonLegend, History and the Ancient CityMichael seymourMetropolitan Museum of artBabylon: for eons its very name has been a byword for luxury and wickedness. One of the greatest cities of the ancient world, Babylon – home to the fabulous hanging gardens – has been eclipsed by its own sinful reputation. Why has Babylon so creatively fired the human imagination, with results both good and ill? Why has it been so enthralling to so many, and for so long? In exploring answers, Michael Seymour ranges across art, archaeology, history, politics and literature. From Hammurabi and Nebuchadnezzar to Brueghel, Rembrandt, Voltaire, William Blake and modern interpreters like Umberto Eco, Italo Calvino and Gore Vidal, the author explores a carnival of disparate sources dominated by the intoxicating idea of depravity.352 PAGes 216 x 134MM noVeMBer 20139781848857018 HArDBACk £56.50
