The Norton Book of Classical Literature by Bernard MacGregor Walke Knox,

The Norton Book of Classical Literature by Bernard MacGregor Walke Knox,
"The literature of the classical world that has survived is a pitiful remnant of what once existed...". So begins Bernard Knox's preface to an anthology that introduces the modern reader to the enormous breadth and rich variety of that "pitiful remnant" - the foundation of Western literature and culture, the inspiration for writers from Dante to Shakespeare to T. S. Eliot. However much - or little - of it we may have read, classical literature has shaped our world and how we perceive it. Yet for most of us classical writing is little more than a narrow circle of legendary figures. The names of Homer, Aeschylus, Plato, Virgil, and Saint Augustine are familiar, but behind their work lies a vast fellowship of writers with a common mythological and artistic heritage. The Norton Book of Classical Literature thus includes not only the "greats" but also significant though lesser known figures and traditions: archaic lyric poets, Alexandrian Greeks, and Roman satirists, for example. Also recovered for us are the breathtaking variety of forms that literature took - epic, lyric, ode, dithyramb, tragedy, comedy, history, dialogue, idyll, epigram, satire, to name a few. The translations selected for this collection, from classic nineteenth-century versions to as yet unpublished manuscripts, reflect the diversity of the works themselves and bring them to us with eloquence and clarity. In his brilliant introduction - an account of the development of classical literature from the origins of the Greek language and Homer to the fall of Rome and Saint Augustine - Knox distills for the general reader a complex literary tradition and allows even those with a thorough knowledge of classical writing to seethat tradition anew. Informative notes throughout the book allow works - some long forgotten, ignored, or misinterpretedto emerge, as vital and compelling today as they were so many centuries ago.

Cosmopolitan Geographies: New Locations in Literature and Culture
Cosmopolitan Geographies: New Locations in Literature and Culture
Cosmopolitanism is back. A quarter century ago, the word described an aesthetic stance; today, the term is rich with political meaning. The cosmopolitan -- the 'citizen of the world' -- is unconstrained by national boundaries. Today, the idea of the cosmopolitan is changing as the world changes: the rise of international capital, the alteration of borders, local and transnational demands for autonomy are all making cosmopolitanism a key concept in the study of people and language, writing and space. Cosmopolitan Geographies considers the struggles at the heart of the subject -- inclusion vs. exclusion, nation vs. world, globalization vs. local economy -- not only in our own time but across centuries. The contributors, who include David Harvey, Bruce Robbins, and Kwame Anthony Appiah, draw upon the fields of literature, philosophy, and geography. Their subjects move from Dante's Italy and Chaucer's England to Balzac's Paris, Anne Frank's Amsterdam and Hannah Arendt's Germany and Israel, to Indonesia, the Philippines, and Zimbabwe, and back to multicultural America. Cosmopolitan Geographies asks whether in our rush to globalization we can sustain the geo-cultural ideal of cosmopolitan identity.
