However, it is not a standard philological commentary. Although it contains textual criticism (but only where meaning and appreciation are substantially affected) and explanation of sense and references (a vital basis for critical analysis), above all there is literary appreciation of Valerius' fourth book, which should help to bring about a revaluation of this largely neglected and sadly underestimated author. The book alerts readers to important aspects of Valerius' highly intellectual poetry, such as wit, humor, elegance, point, subtlety, narrative skill, and creative engagement with forerunners, especially Apollonius of Rhodes and Virgil. 410 0$aMnemosyne, Supplements$v311. 606 $aArgonauts (Greek mythology) in literature 606 $aEpic poetry, Latin$xHistory and criticism 606 $aJason (Greek mythology) in literature 606 $aMedea (Greek mythology) in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aArgonauts (Greek mythology) in literature. 615 0$aEpic poetry, Latin$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aJason (Greek mythology) in literature. 615 0$aMedea (Greek mythology) in literature. 676 $a873/.01 700 $aMurgatroyd$b Paul$0540551 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454810103321 996 $aCommentary on Book 4 of Valerius Flaccus' Argonautica$9941580 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02486nam 2200385 450 001 9910476754903321 005 20230515221242.0 035 $a(CKB)5470000000566750 035 $a(NjHacI)995470000000566750 035 $a(EXLCZ)995470000000566750 100 $a20230515d2021 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aArmies and Ecosystems in Premodern Europe $eThe Meuse Region, 1250-1850 /$fSander Govaerts 210 1$aLeeds :$cArc Humanities Press,$d2021. 215 $a1 online resource (viii, 309 pages) $cillustrations, maps (some color) 225 1 $aWar and conflict in premodern societies 311 $a1-64189-472-5 330 $aUsing the ecosystem concept as his starting point, the author examines the complex relationship between premodern armed forces and their environment at three levels: landscapes, living beings, and diseases. The study focuses on Europe's Meuse Region, well-known among historians of war as a battleground between France and Germany. By analyzing soldiers' long-term interactions with nature, this book engages with current debates about the ecological impact of the military, and provides new impetus for contemporary armed forces to make greater effort to reduce their environmental footprint. "This is an impressive interdisciplinary study, contributing to environmental history, the history of war and historical geography. The book advances an original and intriguing argument that armed forces have had a vested interest in preserving the environments and habitats in which they operate, and have thus contributed to environmental conservation long before this became a popular cause of wider humanity. The work will provide a template for how this topic can be researched for other parts of the world or for other time periods."$cPeter H.
