Автор: Erika Manders Название: Coining Images of Power: Patterns in the Representation of Roman Emperors on Imperial Coinage, A.D. 193-284 ISBN: 900418970X ISBN-13(EAN): 9789004189706 Издательство: Brill Цена: 187280.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Current scholarship on Roman imperial representation addresses both the ways in which individual rulers presented themselves to their subjects and how particular aspects of imperial representation developed over time. This book combines these two approaches. It examines the diachronic development of the representation of Roman imperial power as a whole in one medium over a longer period of time. Through a quantitative and qualitative analysis of coin types issued between A.D. 193 and 284, patterns in the representation of third-century Roman emperors on imperial coinage are made visible. The result is a new perspective on the development of imperial ideology in times of crisis.

Автор: Day, Joseph W. (wabash College, Indiana) Название: Archaic greek epigram and dedication ISBN: 1108984851 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781108984850 Издательство: Cambridge Academ Рейтинг: Цена: 33790.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Archaic Greeks honored gods by offering dedications, often inscribed with epigrams.

Epigram and dedication memorialized the dedicator`s rite by generating its reperformance.
Автор: Diehl, Heath A. Название: Addiction, representation and the experimental novel, 1985-2015 ISBN: 1785276131 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781785276132 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 63360.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание:
Across the past two centuries, the Western novel has propagated the narrow view of the addict as a toxic force bent on undermining the rationality, morality, and progressive spirit that have, since the Enlightenment, defined civilization in the West. Addiction, Representation undertakes an investigation into an alternative literary tradition within which the addict is neither doomed to a horrific death nor sacrificed to the Twelve Steps so that the "recovering addict" might survive. At the center of this investigation is a modest collection of contemporary novels, originally published in the thirty-year span between 1985 and 2015, that exhibits experimental narrative techniques and, in doing so, unsettles the limited portrayal of the addict that has dominated the Western realistic novel since the nineteenth century.
Examining the works of John O'Brien, Sara Gran, Paula Hawkins, Bret Easton Ellis, and Grace Krilanovich, the book argues that the ways in which readers occupy the narratives of contemporary experimental fiction can be instructive for how to live in an extra-diegetic world, where attitudes toward addicts often are as narrow, restrictive, and damaging as they historically have been expressed in the Western novel. The book concerns itself with the practices and politics of reading the experimental addiction novel, and outlines both a practice and an ethics of reading that advocates for a more compassionate response not only to fictional addicts, but also to the actual addicts whose lived experiences gave birth to the existing fiction.
