Marburger Fundus für Studium und Forschung in der Altertumswissenschaft, vol. 6) The detailed study of Xenophon and his writings shows that the ancient author can still provide guidance and advice on political and ethical issues today. Tectum PUBLISHING DATE 23.11.2023 TECTUM VERLAG Jörg Rüpke | Sofia Bianchi Mancini Antike Epik Eine Einführung in hexametrische Großdichtung 3 rd , completely updated and enhanced Edition 2023, 258 pp., pb., € 24.00 ISBN 978-3-8288-4923-5 E-Book 978-3-8288-5057-6 (Nova Classica. Marburger Fundus für Studium und Forschung in der Altertumswissenschaft, vol. 1) GERMAN Epics are the oldest written long texts in many languages. They claim to recount fundamental events and seek to give validity to their version through formal composition. This volume provides an overview of Greek and Latin epic poetry from Homer to Late Antiquity. But above all it asks: How were they made audible? Who wanted to read or listen to them? And how did this change the texts? The professionalisation of such great works also led to competition, outbidding, but also to parody or condensation of the texts. This book is the first to provide a broad and consistent overview from such a perspective. 5 Christentum und europäische Kultur Peter Antes (Hg.) Tectum Peter Antes (Hg.)

October | November | December 2023 CLASSICAL STUDIES 51 Christine Schmitz Juvenal Olms Studienbücher Antike 2. Auflage Boris Dreyer Polybios – Leben und Werk im Banne Roms Olms Studienbücher Antike 2. Auflage (Studienbücher Antike, vol. 4) PUBLISHING DATE APPROX. FEBRUARY 2024 GEORG OLMS VERLAG GERMAN PREVIEW Boris Dreyer Polybios – Leben und Werk im Banne Roms 2 nd , revised Edition with new Foreword 2024, approx. 230 pp., pb., approx. € 29.00 ISBN 978-3-487-16673-5 E-Book 978-3-487-42437-8 Without Polybios, no account of the history of the Mediterranean world from the 3rd and 2nd centuries BC would be possible at this level. Almost the entire historiographical tradition – as far as it is reliable – goes back to Polybios. It is impossible to avoid dealing with this author, who lived through a great many events between 200 and 122 BC. PUBLISHING DATE 29.11.2023 GEORG OLMS VERLAG Christine Schmitz Juvenal 2 nd , revised Edition 2023, 248 pp., pb., € 24.00 ISBN 978-3-487-16647-6 E-Book 978-3-487-42392-0 (Studienbücher Antike, vol. 16) GERMAN Juvenal (approx. AD 60–140) was the last important representative of Roman satire in verse. His influence on the genre has made a significant impact on our understanding of the satiric mode. The introduction provides an overview regarding questions of a literary-theoretical as well as a socio-historic nature, which are quintessential for a comprehensive reading of Juvenal’s satires: the connection between author and narrator (persona theory), the no-longer-functioning relationship between client and patron (amicitia), the behaviour of men and women of the social and political elite diverging from traditional gender roles, concepts of homosexuality etc. NOCTES NEOLATINAE Neo-Latin Texts and Studies Band 40 Florian Feldhofer Die Alexandrias des Francisco Javier Alegre SJ (1729–1788) vor dem Hintergrund der epischen Tradition der Antike und der Alexanderüberlieferung PUBLISHING DATE APPROX. FEBRUARY 2024 GEORG OLMS VERLAG GERMAN PREVIEW Florian Feldhofer Die Alexandrias des Francisco Javier Alegre SJ (1729–1788) Ein Epos zwischen Curtius Rufus und Vergil 2024, approx. 600 pp., pb., approx. € 129.00 ISBN 978-3-487-16666-7 E-Book 978-3-487-42430-9 (Noctes Neolatinae, vol. 40) The Alexandrias by the Mexican Jesuit Francisco Javier Alegre (1729–1788) deals with the conquest of the city of Tyre by Alexander the Great. The historical work of Curtius Rufus is used as a source, which constituted the basis of the Alexander narrative for centuries. TIP GEORG OLMS VERLAG Dariusz Brodka Prokop von Caesarea 2022, 200 pp., pb., € 22.00 ISBN 978-3-487-16270-6 E-Book 978-3-487-42337-1 GERMAN Rainer Oßwald Macht und Herrschaft bei den Mauren der westlichen Sahara Ämter und Führungspositionen aus Sicht des islamischen Rechts Nomos PUBLISHING DATE APPROX. JANUARY 2024 GERMAN PREVIEW Rainer Oßwald Macht und Herrschaft bei den Mauren der westlichen Sahara Ämter und Führungspositionen aus Sicht des islamischen Rechts 2024, approx. 603 pp., pb., approx. € 139.00 ISBN 978-3-7560-1244-2 E-Book 978-3-7489-1785-4 (Studienbücher Antike, vol. 19) Prokop (6th century AD) came from Caesarea in Palestine and received a rhetorical and juridical education. From 527 onwards, he was a secretary and legal adviser on the staff of the emperor’s commander Belisar, whom he accompanied to all the battlefields. Anarchy is not provided for in Islamic law but was a reality in the tribal society of the pre-colonial Moorish Western Sahara. The subject of this study is the question of how local legal scholarship dealt with this problem in both theory and practice.
