CONTENTS

Message from the Editors: What makes I.B.Tauris’ classical studies different? Attempting to revitalise standard publishing models and genres, IBT’s classical list has enthusiastically embraced variety. We have sought out introductory volumes for students and generalists; a thriving series of short histories; classical reference books and major works; and – alongside a solid backbone of innovative research monographs – a keenly priced list of books aimed squarely at general readers. We have thus tried – in reflecting the energetic diversity of the discipline itself – to reach out to those many different readerships who engage in all sorts of ways with the classics: whether undergraduates of the subject, scholars, or those who simply love the antique world. This catalogue offers several highlights. Distinguished authorities on Mediterranean archaeology John Bennet and Nicoletta Momigliano introduce a marked Cretan theme with their respective A Short History of the Minoans and In Search of the Labyrinth. Further Short Histories on the Etruscans, Babylon and Ancient China are complemented by the latest volumes in the ‘Understanding Classics’ series (including Susan Stephens’ much anticipated book The Poets of Alexandria) and notable titles by Sylvia Montiglio (The Myth of Hero and Leander), Kai Brodersen (Imperial Dacia: A History of Roman Romania), Amy C. Smith (an authoritative treatment of the Pan Painter in Master of Attic Red-Figure Painting) and Lindsay C. Watson (Magic in Ancient Greece and Rome – an inviting treatment of classical sorcery). Space is made, alongside these wellestablished voices, for a new generation of classical talent who include Joanna Day (Food in Ancient Greece) and Elizabeth Gloyn (Between Scylla and Charybdis). Reception studies remains a particular strength at IBT. Alex Wright, Executive Editor – awright@ibtauris.com Thomas Stottor, Editor, Monographs – tstottor@ibtauris.com

GREECE & ROME / UNDERSTANDING CLASSICS SERIES

UNDERSTANDING CLASSICS Edited 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.

VIRGIL 2

NEW

Alison Keith University of Toronto Hailed in his lifetime and in every generation thereafter as the supreme Roman poet,Virgil (70-19 BCE) wrote three books of hexameter verse that defined the ‘golden age’ of Latin poetry.Virgil, as Alison Keith shows, has never gone out of critical or popular fashion. His ascent from the lesser genre of pastoral (the Bucolics) through a more ambitious didactic mode (the Georgics) to the soaring heights of epic (the incomparable Aeneid) inspired countless other authors, starting with his younger contemporary Ovid, and continuing through the medieval writers Dante and Petrarch, and the early modern poets Spenser and Milton. This wide-ranging introduction illuminates how Virgil continues to inspire modern writers. 192 PAGES 216 X 138MM JULY 2018 9781848859197 HARDBACK £39.50 / $65.00 9781848859203 PAPERBACK £12.99 / $20.00 e ebook available

BETWEEN SCYLLA AND CHARYBDIS NEW

Allegory and Warfare in Contemporary Hollywood Chris Davies

The Ancient Monster in the Modern World Elizabeth Gloyn Royal Holloway, University of London What is it about ancient monsters that popular culture finds so enthralling? Elizabeth Gloyn here explores how mythical creatures have found renewed life and purpose. Whether on TV shows like Buffy; in literature, or in cinematic portrayals such as Clash of the Titans, the monstrous is omnipresent. From the Cyclops to Charybdis and Scylla, this is a bold exploration of what the classical monster means, to the ancients and ourselves.

AMAZONS

NEW

The Legendary Warrior Women of Antiquity David Braund University of Exeter

ISLANDS OF THE ANCIENT SEA NEW Aesthetics, Landscape and Modernity Argyro Loukaki

The idea of the Amazons is one of the most romantic and resonant in all antiquity. Here, David Braund shows how these mythical female warriors captivated imaginations, from the medieval and Renaissance eras to the present. Deftly traversing art, literature and culture, he explores portrayals by Homer, Herodotus, Aeschylus,Virgil, Chaucer, Ariosto and Mary Renault – who writes lyrically of the Amazons as muscular moonmaids of Artemis. Finally, he looks at the basis of the legend in history, locating in recent archaeology a reality as surprising and evocative as any fiction told through story or myth.

MAGIC IN ANCIENT GREECE AND ROME The Sorcery and Divination of Classical Antiquity NEW Lindsay C. Watson University of Sydney

Silvia Montiglio Johns Hopkins University Hero and Leander are the protagonists in a classical tale of epic but tragic love. Silvia Montiglio here shows how and why this affecting story has proved to be one of the most popular mythologies in the history of the West. Discussing its singular drama, danger, pathos and eroticism, the author explores the origin of the legend and its rich and varied afterlives. She shows how it was used by Greek and Latin writers; how it developed in the Middle Ages and Renaissance; how it inspired Byron to swim the Dardanelles; and how it has lived on in representations by artists including Rubens and Frederic Leighton.

Ancient magic was not an abstract thing. Here, Lindsay Watson shows magic was a practical philosophy, woven into the fabric of everyday classical life. Concentrating on curse magic, love spells, animal divination, literary texts and day-to-day magic, he explores a range of antique magical activity.

NEW

An Archaeological Guide Paul Wilkinson

The resonant ruins of Pompeii are perhaps the most direct route back to the living, breathing world of the ancient Romans.Two million visitors annually now walk the paved streets which re-emerged, miraculously preserved, from their layers of volcanic ash. This handy archaeological guide, written by an expert in the field, explains Pompeii’s public spaces and private residences. Illustrated throughout with maps, plans, diagrams and other images, Pompeii: An Archaeological Guide offers a general introduction to the famous doomed city followed by an authoritative summary and survey of the buildings, artefacts and paintings themselves. The result is an unrivalled picture, derived from an intimate knowledge of Roman archaeology around the Bay of Naples, of the forum, temples, brothels, bath-houses, bakeries, gymnasia, amphitheatre, necropolis and other site buildings – including perennial favourites like the House of the Faun, named after its celebrated dancing satyr. 256 PAGES 216 X 136MM SEPTEMBER 2017 9781784539283 PAPERBACK £14.99 / $29.00 e ebook available

SENSORY EXPERIENCE AND THE ROMAN HOME NEW

Ancient Dacia was vital to imperial Roman interests. A thorn in the side of the Roman Empire until Trajan defeated the Dacian king Decebalus at the Second Battle of Tapae in 101 AD, Dacia later became indispensable to the Empire. In this first concerted treatment of Roman Romania, Kai Brodersen expertly traces Dacia’s transition from hated enemy and rival to essential breadbasket of the imperium. 288 PAGES 216 X 138MM JUNE 2018 9781788312615 HARDBACK £64.00 / $99.00 LIBRARY OF CLASSICAL STUDIES e ebook available

GREED, LUXURY AND IMPERIAL DEGENERACY

Power and Space in Ancient Rome Hannah Platts Royal Holloway, University of London Classicists have long wondered what everyday life was like in ancient Greece and Rome. How, for example, did the slaves, visitors, inhabitants or owners experience the same home differently? For the first time, Hannah Platts draws on a diverse range of evidence and an innovative amalgamation of methodological approaches to explore multi-sensory experience – auditory, olfactory, tactile, gustatory and visual – in domestic environments in Rome for the first time. 256 PAGES 216 X 138MM JULY 2018 9781788312998 HARDBACK £59.00 / $95.00 LIBRARY OF CLASSICAL STUDIES e ebook available

The Rhetoric of Vice and Virtue in Late Antiquity Tim W. Watson Examining the writings from the period of four figures with diverse religious backgrounds, Tim Watson shows how their emphasis on virtuous conduct over wealth and birth created a space for ‘new men’ in the hierarchies of church and state: but on their terms. It was this focus on virtue and vice that helped established discourses adapt to the fluid worlds of Western Christendom and the Byzantine Empire. 304 PAGES 216 X 138MM JUNE 2018 9781784533656 HARDBACK £69.00 / $110.00 LIBRARY OF CLASSICAL STUDIES e ebook available

ALEXANDER THE GREAT IN THE EARLY CHRISTIAN TRADITION Classical Reception and Patristic Literature NEW Christian Thrue Djurslev University of Edinburgh

Philip Hardie and Anton Powell (Eds)

The Ancient Lives of the poet Virgil, written in prose (and sometimes in verse), have long enjoyed great, though controversial, influence. Modern critics have often been scornful of these Lives, for trying to construct biography of the poet from allegorical reading of his verse. The present volume, from a distinguished international team, aims to revalue the Ancient Lives of Virgil from a variety of angles and in a variety of scholarly genres. The allegory within the Lives is here studied for its own sake, and shown to be part of a developed Graeco-Roman school of interpretation. Ideas of Virgil received and developed with brio in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance are here traced back to the Ancient Lives of the poet composed in Antiquity. 280 PAGES 270 X 156MM DECEMBER 2017 9781910589618 HARDBACK £64.00 THE CLASSICAL PRESS OF WALES e ebook available

GREECE & ROME / NEW DIRECTIONS IN CLASSICS SERIES

NEW DIRECTIONS IN CLASSICS Edited by Duncan F. Kennedy and Charles Martindale

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

In the last generation Classics has changed almost beyond recognition. The subject as taught thirty years ago involved enormous concentration on just two periods: fifth-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.

MEDICINE

NEW

Antiquity and its Legacy

Caroline Petit University of Warwick

8

The extent to which classical theories about, and practices of, medical knowledge have shaped and continue to define medicine today is remarkable: but not always widely appreciated. Caroline Petit here offers a concise yet comprehensive account of medicine in antiquity which explores precisely that fascinating legacy. Discussing topics such as medical ethics, diagnostic explanations of illness and disease, matters of sex and gender, the ancient division between body and soul, interpretations of madness and melancholia, and methods of medical teaching and dissemination, the author draws fascinating parallels between the ancient, early modern and modern periods. Discussing a variety of ancient texts, from the Hippocratic era to the late Roman Empire, and examining contested literary evidence and interpretations, Petit skilfully traces the trajectory of medical practice from its magical and religious origins to a rational science of pathology, physiology, surgery and anatomy. 256 PAGES 216 X 138MM JUNE 2018 9781845118464 HARDBACK £59.00 / $95.00 9781845118471 PAPERBACK £12.99 e ebook available

MASTER OF ATTIC RED-FIGURE PAINTING NEW

The Art and Legacy of the Pan Painter Amy C. Smith University of Reading

Amelia Brown The University of Queensland Late antique Corinth was on the frontline of the radical political, economic and religious transformations that swept across the Mediterranean world from the second to sixth centuries CE. Drawing on evidence from literary sources, extensive archaeological excavations and historical records, Amelia Brown here surveys this period of urban transformation. Brown demonstrates the many ways Corinthians responded to internal and external pressures by building, demolishing and repurposing urban public space, thus transforming Corinthian society, civic identity and urban infrastructure. In a departure from isolated textual and archaeological studies, she connects this process to broader changes in metropolitan life, contributing to the understanding of urban experience in the late antique Mediterranean. 272 PAGES 216 X 138MM DECEMBER 2017 9781784538231 HARDBACK £59.00 / $95.00 e ebook available

Developing in Athens around 520 BC, Redfigure vase painting had supplanted within a few decades the previously hegemonic black-figure painting which preceded it. Amy Smith discusses arguably the greatest of all the red-figure painters: the Pan Painter, so-called after the krater vase, now in Boston, attributed to his hand which shows the god Pan in aroused pursuit of a goatherd.The author reveals her subject as a genius who combined an artist’s flair and technical brilliance with an acute and irreverent sense of the human predicament. 200 PAGES 246 X 189MM JULY 2018 9781788310192 HARDBACK £75.00 / $120.00 LIBRARY OF CLASSICAL STUDIES e ebook available

A Concise History of the Rise and Expansion of Ancient Rome Dexter Hoyos In this comprehensive new survey, the first to span the full four and a half centuries of Roman power, Dexter Hoyos traces what drove imperial expansion up to AD 212 and what impact it had on the peoples she subdued. The author shows that while Rome’s rule could be harsh, it was also culturally flexible: and therein lay its success. Local communities ran their own affairs, spoke their own languages and maintained their own beliefs and cults. 256 PAGES 216 X 138MM JULY 2018 9781780762746 HARDBACK £64.00 / $99.00 9781780762753 PAPERBACK £14.99 / $28.00 LIBRARY OF CLASSICAL STUDIES e ebook available

Miletus was one of the wealthiest and most important towns in ancient Greece. It was here, on the Aegean coast in the 6th century BC, that the great traditions of Greek science and philosophy sparked into life that would change the world forever. This is the extraordinary story of Greek science from its earliest beginnings through its development in classical Athens and Hellenistic Alexandria and its subsequent diffusion to the wider world. 256 PAGES 226 X 155MM MARCH 2018 9781788312455 PAPERBACK £12.99 / $15.95 e ebook available

ANCIENT GREECE AND NEW AMERICAN CONSERVATISM Classical Influence on the Modern Right

THE HERO CULTS OF SPARTA NEW

Religion and Private Worship in a Greek Polis Nicolette Pavlides University College Cork, Ireland

John Bloxham University of Nottingham

US conservatives have repeatedly turned to classical Greece for inspiration and rhetorical power. Using Plato to defend moral absolutism, Aristotle as a means to develop a uniquely conservative social science; and Thucydides to justify a more assertive foreign policy. By tracing this phenomenon and analysing examples of selectivity, subversion and adaptation within their broader social and political contexts, John Bloxham here employs classical thought as a prism through which to explore competing strands in American conservatism. Bloxham illuminates the varied and diverse ways that Greek thought has reinforced and invigorated conservatism. 288 PAGES 216 X 138MM APRIL 2018 9781788311540 HARDBACK £64.00 / $99.00 e ebook available

THE MINOANS

NEW

John Bennet

University of Sheffield The Minoans have long tantalized all those who have tried to understand this most enigmatic people of the ancient world and the riddles to which their mysterious culture gives rise. What is contained in their earliest writing script, the still un-deciphered Linear A? Did their likely extinction by volcanic eruption shape the Atlantis legend? Why was their religion so thoroughly matriarchal? What was the purpose of their great palaces at Knossos, Phaestos and Malia? The archaeologist Sir Arthur Evans controversially ‘rediscovered’ and then restored the Minoan civilization in the early twentieth century, tying it to King Minos, builder of the famous labyrinth and keeper of the legendary Minotaur. In this lucid and absorbing new history of Crete from the 9th millennium BCE to 1000 BCE, John Bennet expertly draws on the latest archaeological and textual discoveries to separate fact from imagination, history from myth. 288 PAGES 216 X 138MM SEPTEMBER 2018 9781780763255 HARDBACK £64.00 / $99.00 9781780763262 PAPERBACK £10.99 / $17.95 e ebook available

Yet the search for its source also contained a religious quest – a search for the origin of its divine and life-giving waters. Terje Oestigaard reveals how the beliefs associated with the river have played a key role in the cultural development and make-up of the societies and civilizations associated with it. 460 PAGES 234 X 156MM FEBRUARY 2018 9781784539788 HARDBACK £69.00 / $110.00 e ebook available

THE GREAT BELZONI NEW

An Edwardian Journey on the Nile

The Circus Strongman who Discovered Egypt’s Ancient Treasures NEW IN PAPERBACK Stanley Mayes

Toby Wilkinson and Julian Platt

A collection of treasured letters bring to life a lost world of Edwardian travel, of Egypt on the brink of the modern age, of the great figures of Egyptology. In 1907/08 Ferdinand Platt travelled as personal physician to the ailing 8th Duke of Devonshire, recounting his adventure in letters home. Throughout the journey Ferdinand reported the people he met (including Howard Carter and Winston Churchill) and recorded his intimate observations of a formal and stratified society, soon to be witness to its own extinction. Introduced by Egyptologist Toby Wilkinson, the letters open an intriguing window onto travel in Egypt during the Belle Epoque and the golden age of Egyptology.

The truly extraordinary life story of Giovanni Belzoni – engineer, barber, monk, actor and circus strongman (where he earned his title, ‘The Great Belzoni’), who became one of the giants of 19th century Egyptian archaeology. Giovanni Battista Belzoni is perhaps the most important and yet least remembered explorer and archaeologist of the last 200 years.

The discovery of ancient Egypt and the development of Egyptology are momentous events in intellectual and cultural history. The history of Egyptology is the story of the people, who constructed the picture of ancient Egypt that we have today, recovered the Egyptian past while inventing it anew, and made a lost civilization comprehensible to generations of enchanted readers and viewers thousands of years later.This, the third of a three-volume history of Egyptology, follows the progress of the discipline from the trauma of the First World War, through into Egyptology’s new horizons at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Wonderful Things affirms that the history of ancient Egypt has proved continually fascinating, but it also demonstrates that the history of Egyptology is no less so. 448 PAGES 230 X 150 MM MARCH 2018 9789774167607 HARDBACK £24.95 THE AMERICAN UNIVERSITY IN CAIRO PRESS e ebook available

THE HISTORY OF CENTRAL ASIA

NEW

The Age of Decline and Revival (Vol 4) Christoph Baumer

For many years, Central Asia was the heartland of the mightiest military power on the planet. But after the fragmentation of the Mongol polity, the region began to decline. During the nineteenth century, the former territories of the great khans were overrun by Tsarist Russia. In the last volume of his acclaimed quartet, Christoph Baumer shows how China and Russia became the masters of their previous rulers. He suggests that, as traditional trade routes declined, it was the cold war between Imperial Russia and Great Britain which brought Central Asia back into play as a region of strategic importance.This epic history concludes with an assessment of the transition to independence of the Central Asian states and their struggle to contain radical Islamism. 352 PAGES 289 X 237 MM MAY 2018 9781788310499 HARDBACK £30.00 / $39.50 e ebook available

NEW

Limits of Empire in Late Antique and Early Medieval Central Asia Robert Haug University of Cincinnati

TREASURES FROM THE OXUS NEW The Art and Civilization of Central Asia

Massimo Vidale University of Padua The great river civilization of the Oxus is one of the forgotten jewels of the ancient world. Historically, this grand arterial 1500-mile waterway was central to many empires and a succession of skilled, yet still elusive, Bronze Age cultures flourished here well before the 6th century BCE. This richly illustrated book explores the fascinating history, art and archaeology of the region, including its primal trade in silk and foodstuffs; the mineral wealth of the Oxus basin; its exotic myths and beliefs; and the converging tribes and peoples which led to a new stability, economic growth and urbanism. The volume contains 150 full-colour photographs of notable artefacts, including 25 ‘Bactrian Princesses’: remarkable statuettes made in chlorite and limestone. Most of these rare objects have never been seen before. 240 PAGES 289 X 237MM JUNE 2017 9781784537722 HARDBACK £30.00 / $45.00 e ebook available

Transoxania, Khurasan, and Tukharistan, which comprise large parts of today’s Central Asia, have often been portrayed on the margins of empires. Here, Huag argues for a pre-modern and discrete identity, a region that is not just the far-flung corner of empires, but its own historical entity. 352 PAGES 216 X 138MM MAY 2018 9781788310031 HARDBACK £75.00 / $120.00 EARLY AND MEDIEVAL ISLAMIC WORLD e ebook available

The Cultural Politics of Empire in the Medieval World Anna Linden Weller Uppsala University The tenth-century Byzantine expansion into eastern Anatolia was a challenge both to the imperial conquerors and their subjects. Drawing on various historical texts, Anna Linden Weller demonstrates how a variety of actors created authoritative claims of universal empire. Across several case studies, Weller applies the methodologies of narratology and network theory to form a nuanced exploration of the cultural capabilities and limitations of medieval empires. 256 PAGES 216 X 138MM AUGUST 2018 9781788310284 HARDBACK £59.00 / $95.00 e ebook available

GOD

A New Biography NEW Philip C. Almond University of Queensland The story of God is the story of a paradox. Here, Philip Almond reveals that – whether in Judaism, Christianity or Islam – God is seen to be at once utterly beyond our world yet at the same earnestly desiring to be at one with it. The way this and other metaphysical tensions have been understood is, the author demonstrates, the key to unlocking the entire history of religion in the West. Expertly placing the narrative of divine presence within the wider history of ideas, Almond suggests that the notion of a deity has been the single greatest conundrum of medieval and modern civilization. 264 PAGES 216 X 135MM AUGUST 2018 9781784537654 HARDBACK £20.00 / $29.50 e ebook available

ALEXANDER THE GREAT IN THE PERSIAN TRADITION History, Myth and Legend in Medieval Iran NEW Haila Mantaghi University of Münster

Alexander the Great was transformed into a legend by all he met, leaving an enduring tradition of romances across the world. Aside from in Europe, the Alexander romance arguably had its greatest impact in the Persian language. Haila Manteghi here offers a complete survey of that deep tradition, ranging from analysis of classical Persian poetry to medieval Arabic historiography. She explores how the Greek work first entered the Persian literary tradition and traces the development of its influence, before revealing the remarkable way in which Alexander became as central to the Persian tradition as any other hero or king. 304 PAGES 216 X 138MM JANUARY 2018 9781788310307 HARDBACK £64.00 / $99.00 e ebook available

CREATING IMAGES OF A TURKISH PAST NEW

Identity and the Representation of Archaeology in Modern Turkey Melania Savino

Kunsthistorisches Institut in Florenz

Here, Touraj Daryaee shows how the idea of Iran’s Sasanian Empire – its values, boundaries and traditions – was brought to the Zoroastrian, Jewish and Christian populations of the Empire and absorbed into these religious communities.

What role do the narratives of the ancient past play in the modern Turkish Republic? How is the knowledge of this past constructed and displayed to the public? Melania Savino answers these questions through an analysis of the role of archaeology and its representation in the service of generating new perceptions of cultural identity in Turkey. The topic is explored via museums and visual media, addressing the ways in which antiquities became crucial symbols in the construction of a Turkish national imagination. During the creation of the republic, the discipline of archaeology underwent a profound transformation and played a primary role in defining Turkey as a ‘modern’ nation.
