Adventures of the Solymoi --References --IndexThe "Second Sophistic" traditionally refers to a period at the height of the Roman Empire's power that witnessed a flourishing of Greek rhetoric and oratory, and since the 19th century it has often been viewed as a defense of Hellenic civilization against the domination of Rome. This book proposes a very different model. Covering popular fiction, poetry and Greco-Jewish material, it argues for a rich, dynamic, and diverse culture, which cannot be reduced to a simple model of continuity. Shining new light on a series of playful, imaginative texts that are left out of the traditional accounts of Greek literature, Whitmarsh models a more adventurous, exploratory approach to later Greek culture. Beyond the Second Sophistic offers not only a new way of looking at Greek literature from 300 BCE onwards, but also a challenge to the Eurocentric, aristocratic constructions placed on the Greek heritage. Accessible and lively, it will appeal to students and scholars of Greek literature and culture, Hellenistic Judaism, world literature, and cultural theory.Greek literatureRomeHistory and criticismGreek literatureHistory and criticismancient literature.aristocratic constructions.classics.different model.diverse culture.engaging.exploratory approach.greco-jewish material.greek culture.greek heritage.greek literature.greek oratory.greek rhetoric.hellenic civilization.hellenistic judaism.historical.history.literary.roman empire.rome.second sophistic.Greek literatureHistory and criticism.Greek literatureHistory and criticism.880.9/001Whitmarsh Tim479134MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910828894803321Beyond the Second Sophistic260936UNINA01683nam0 22003973i 450 VAN026266320231122114304.879N978366221563020230830d1983 |0itac50 baengDE|||| |||||Differential Geometry in the LargeSeminar Lectures New York University 1946 and Stanford University 1956Heinz HopfBerlinSpringer1983vii, 189 p.24 cm001VAN01022502001 Lecture notes in mathematics210 Berlin [etc.]Springer100053-XXDifferential geometry [MSC 2020]VANC019813MF53CxxGlobal differential geometry [MSC 2020]VANC024095MFCurvatureKW:KDifferential geometryKW:KGaussian curvatureKW:KGeometryKW:KGlobal differential geometryKW:KMean curvatureKW:KRiemannian manifoldsKW:KBerlinVANL000066HopfHeinzVANV21700141921Springer <editore>VANV108073650ITSOL20240614RICAhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-662-21563-0E-book – Accesso al full-text attraverso riconoscimento IP di Ateneo, proxy e/o ShibbolethBIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI MATEMATICA E FISICAIT-CE0120VAN08NVAN0262663BIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI MATEMATICA E FISICA08CONS e-book 6514 08eMF6514 20230905 Differential geometry in the large79959UNICAMPANIA
