Classics & Ancient History New and Recent Books 2013/2014
Classics & Ancient History 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).

The Legendary Warrior Women of Antiquity David Braund, University of Exeter
Masculinity and the Construction of an Icon NEW Rachael Kelly, University of Ulster
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 2014 9781780769561 Hardback £20.00

In this fascinating account of a classical figure and his reception in popular culture, Kelly deftly reveals the part these representations have to play in transmitting and interrogating a discourse of hegemonic masculinity that stretches all the way from Plutarch to the present day. 256 Pages 216 x 134mm January 2014 9781780765747 Hardback £56.00 International Library of Cultural Studies, Vol. 36

The Sacred Architecture of Byzantium NEW

Helen Lovatt NEW University of Nottingham
Few 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 interpretations 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 entertaining to those who love classical literature and myth. 256 Pages 234 x 156mm september 2014 9781848857148 Hardback £19.50

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. e

A Fiscal History of Archaic Athens Hans 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 2013 9781780766867 Hardback £56.00 Library of Classical Studies, Vol. 5

greece & rome / new directions in classics series
new directions in classics Edited 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 recommended series. – Alex Purves, Associate Professor of Classics, UCLA

Temple of the World
Sanctuaries, Cults, and Mysteries of Ancient Egypt NEW Miroslav Verner Charles University
Despite the prominence of ancient temples in the landscape of Egypt, books about them are surprisingly rare. This new and essential publication 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 2013 9789774165634 Hardback £39.95 The American University in Cairo Press*

The Lost Manuscript of Frederic Cailliaud NEW

The shift from polytheism to monotheism changed the world radically. Akhenaten and Moses – one a figure of history and the other a figure of tradition – symbolize this shift in its incipient, revolutionary stages and represent two civilizations that were brought into the closest connection as early as the Book of Exodus. 192 Pages 234 x 156mm March 2014 9789774166310 Hardback £24.95 The American University in Cairo Press*

Zahi Hawass
NEW
Two Thousand Years of Christianity in Egypt Gawdat Gabra (Ed.)
With a foreword by Jaromir Malek
Penned by a scholar who was personally involved in research into the enigmatic young pharaoh, this comprehensive and fully illustrated 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 technology. 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 2013 9789774166372 Hardback £29.95 The American University in Cairo Press*

The Palace of Darius at Susa NEW
The Great Royal Residence of Achaemenid Persia Jean Perrot (Ed)
Introduction by John Curtis, The British Museum
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 2013 9781780760636 Hardback £25.00 I.B.Tauris in association with the Iran Heritage Foundation
The palace complex of the Persian King Darius I, the Great (522-486 BCE), provides unique evidence of the sophistication of Achaemenid architecture and construction. This palace, built 2500 years ago in western Iran, lay at the centre of the Persian Empire. First rediscovered 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 2013 9781848856219 Hardback £60.00 I.B.Tauris in association with the Iran Heritage Foundation

Hellenism and the Representation of the Achaemenid Empire Sasan Samiei
Legend, History and the Ancient City Michael Seymour Metropolitan Museum of Art
Babylon: 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 2013 9781848857018 Hardback £56.50

The Age of the Silk Roads (c. 200 BC–c. 900 AD) shaped the course of the future. Tracing the rise and fall of empires, this richly illustrated book charts the ebb and flow of epic history: the bitter rivalry of Rome and Parthia; the lucrative mercantile empire of the Sogdians; the founding of Samarkand; and Chinese defeat at the Battle of Talas (751 AD) by the forces of Islam. 352 Pages 289 x 237mm September 2014 9781780768328 Hardback £25.00
