This fully annotated Latin edition, by Daniel H. Garrison, of Horace's Epodes, Odes, and Carmen Saeculare is the first comprehensive English commentary on these works since 1903. The full text of the Epodes is included and placed before the Odes, as it was originally written and published. Garrison offers help with meter, vocabulary, and difficult points of grammar. For advanced students, he place Horace against the background of archaic and Hellenistic Greek poetry, demonstrates the poet's debt to Catullus, and illuminates Horace's relation to his contemporaries, particularly Virgil. Biographical information and a discussion of Horace's literary persona expand our view of the poet and his works. Appendices on meter, persons mentioned in the poems, and technical terminology provide what readers end to understand topical and mythological references, rhetorical conventions, and poetic artistry.

Although his poems survived the Middle Ages in only a single copy, Catullus has become a canonical author in our time; his artistry and range place him with Virgil, Horace, and Ovid. And since its first edition, published in 1989, The Student's Catullus has become the definitive introductory text for students. This new edition is expanded and revised to make Catullus more accessible to today's readers.This new edition includes the following features: 15 poems recommended by the College Board to prepare students for AP Latin 16 additional poems suitable for advanced high school or intermediate college A new design that features expanded English commentary appearing alongside the poem Reconsideration of Catullus' nuances and meaning with fidelity to his language, grounded in contemporary ethical understanding A Latin-English Catullan vocabulary relevant to each poem New maps by John Wyatt Greenlee with place names in Latin This edition retains these time-proven features of the previous editions: A brief overview of Catullus's life and artistic persona, a Who's Who of the people in Catullus' poems, an explanation of Catullan meters, and a glossary of literary terms used in the commentary. Selections from The Student's Catullus for AP and College Latin draws on decades of classroom experience and retains the effective methods of previous editions while at the same time addressing the needs of today's students.

This book provides the first annotated English translation from the original Latin of Andreas Vesalius' China Root Epistle. Ostensibly his appraisal of a fashionable herbal remedy, the China Root Epistle concentrates on Vesalius' skeptical appraisal of traditional Galenic anatomy, which was based on animal rather than human dissections. Along with reflections about his life as a young anatomist, Vesalius argued that the new science of anatomy should devote itself less to rhetorical polemics and more to the craft of direct observation based on human dissection. This volume provides annotations to link the Epistle with Vesalius' earlier and more famous work, On the Fabric of the Human Body, and includes illustrations from the famous woodcuts first used in the 1543 edition of the Fabrica.

A Cultural History of the Human Body in Antiquity explores 1,750 years of the history of the West, from Homer to the end of the first millennium CE. This span of time includes three major eras of Greek civilization, the Roman Republic, the Roman Empire until its collapse in the 5th Century CE, and Medieval Europe up to the transition to the High Middle Ages. Key issues include the invention of the nude as a cultural icon, the early development of Western medicine, and formative discourses about the identity and ethical management of the body. A Cultural History of the Human Body in Antiquity presents an overview of the period with essays on the centrality of the human body in birth and death, health and disease, sexuality, beauty and concepts of the ideal, bodies marked by gender, race, class and disease, cultural representations and popular beliefs, and self and society.
