Euripides Hippolytus

Two book set: individual Commentary and Text. Bryn Mawr Commentaries have been admired and used by Greek and Latin teachers at every level for twenty years. They provide clear, concise, accurate, and consistent support for students making the transition from introductory and intermediate texts to the direct experience of ancient literature. They assume that the student will know the basics of grammar and vocabulary and then provide the specific grammatical and lexical notes that a student requires to begin the task of interpretation. The volumes in the series are modestly priced and remain in print indefinitely. The text in each volume is in either the original Greek or Latin, with grammatical and lexical commentary in English.

From Guillermo del Toro and DreamWorks Animation's Emmy® Award-winning Netflix series, comes a graphic novel with another quest for teenage Jim Lake, Jr., and his friends--human and Troll! The title of Trollhunter weighs heavy on the shoulders of Jim Lake, Jr.--as does his new title of "boyfriend"--and it has lead him to a crisis of identity. To help the young man grasp who he is, the Trolls, Vendel, Blinky, and AAARRRGGHH!!!, and his best friend, Toby, look at the adventures and misadventures of six previous Trollhunters during times when they, too, questioned themselves. Through their stories Jim discovers how Trollhunters Deya the Deliverer and Kanjigar the Courageous--and others--used their different attributes to be the best they could be . . . And how he can try to do the same. Writer Richard Ashley Hamilton (How to Train Your Dragon: The Serpent's Heir) expands on the world of the Trollhunters along with Timothy Green II (Avengers Academy), Joe Silver (Animal Man), Omar Lozano (Ultra Duck), Wes Dzioba (Serenity), and Edgar Delgado (Ultra Duck)!

This book is a cultural history of Tangier, something not done before. Tangier is perennially fascinating and experiencing a major renaissance. It's a popular travel destination once again and people are interested in the city's extraordinarily rich history - from ancient beginnings suffused with myth and legend, through years of invasion and conquest, on to its becoming a focus of European rivalry and hotbed of espionage and intrigue; the Golden Age in the 50s, 60s and 70s, subsequent decline and recent regeneration. The book has been woven with traveller's anecdotes, extracts of inspired poetry and prose and populated with a brilliant cast of characters: pirates, sultans, artists, musicians, writers, princes and playboys.

This publication accompanies the first major museum exhibition in the world to focus on the visualization and drawing practices of master chef Ferran Adria. His complex body of work positions the drawing medium as both a philosophical tool--used to organize and convey knowledge, meaning and signification--as well as a physical object--used to synthesize over twenty years of innovation within the kitchen. Emphasizing the role of drawing in Adria's quest to understand creativity, the book features an interview between Ferran Adria and Brett Littman, and also includes a reprint of the artist Richard Hamilton's essay about the relationship of food to contemporary art and Adria's participation in Documenta 12 that first appeared in "Food for Thought: Thought for Food" (2009).

Hesiod's Works and Days (Bryn Mawr Commentaries)

In this compelling work Richard Hamilton employs a revolutionary methodology to investigate a crucial area of Greek religion. The Athenian spring festival Anthesteria, held in honor of the god Dionysos, arguably incorporated thee most complicated rituals recorded for Classical Athens. The central second day of the festival, called Choes, provides a rare opportunity to study the relationship between literary and visual evidence. Not only do we possess a wide variety of written testimonia, there also survive large quantities of the small clay pots that gave the day its name. Choes and Anthesteria begins by offering translations of the testimonia for the Anthesteria, together with analyses of difficult literary and philological points. Hamilton then turns to the visual evidence. The repetitive motifs seen on the choes make possible the ensuing statistical consideration of the vases' evidence. By documenting the independent and joint occurrences of iconographical images that appear in the numerous plates, the author reveals that many aspects of the traditional view of this major festival require clarification or thorough revision. Indeed, he shows that the kinds of evidence traditionally deployed in defense of scholarly views instead need very careful treatment and discrimination. Choes and Anthesteria will find its audience among those interested in Greek literature and society, religious ritual and artistic iconography. The author sheds a bright light upon a critical phase of Athenian life, and his unusual methodological approach reveals a new reading of this famous civic festival.

Choes and Anthesteria

From the coauthor of the Trollhunters series, a sci-fi mystery comic about a teenage reporter tracking a conspiracy and trying to clear her father’s name . . . Meet fourteen-year-old Sophie Cooper—redheaded Cuban-American, high school freshman, and daughter of a loving father currently under house arrest for embezzlement and money laundering. While her mother struggles to support the family, and her bratty younger brother, Kit, sits around tinkering with his “inventions,” Sophie has only one goal: clearing her father’s name. When an internship opens up at the local news station, Sophie seizes the chance to do a little investigating of her own. Unfortunately, WMIA 7 isn’t exactly CNN. In between logging Betacam tapes and fetching coffee for the station’s washed-up reporting team, Sophie sifts through the “broken stories”: crank-calls and dead-end tips reporting everything from UFOs to alligator-men. However, one name keeps popping up: Matheson Savings and Trust, the bank that accused Sophie’s father of money laundering. Sounds like a conspiracy to this cub reporter! Determined to follow her lead, Sophie sets out to investigate the weirdness, uncover a conspiracy, and clear her family’s name . . .
