Myth-Making in Aristophanes Innovation and Evolution in Attic Comedy
This book focuses on the development of Attic comedy as it is evinced in four fragmentary plays by Aristophanes: Polyidus, Daedalus, Aeolosicon, and Cocalus. The significance of these plays lies in the fact that they present characteristics which are not prominent in the extant plays. They are mythological comedies that Aristophanes might have composed as parodies of tragedies. The four dramas exhibit elements largely present in Middle and New Comedy, such as the use and re-use of myths, the production of large-scale burlesque, domestic plots, unfolded outside Attica. This is a book directed to the wider audience, to all enthusiasts of Classics. It facilitates the understanding of an aspect of Aristophanes’ work, discernible only within his fragmentary dramas. This study thus revisits Old Comedy and enriches the scholarship with new insights and new discoveries regarding Aristophanes, his literary interactions, as well as his innovating and influential work.
Sophocles
"Following the volume of six fragementary Sophoclean tragedies published in this series in 2006, Alan Sommerstein and Thomas Talboy now present seven more. The volume includes the text and translation of all the surviving fragements (and of a selection of other texts that give us information about these plays), with full commentary and an introduction to each play discussing, among other things, the development of the myth and the likely content of the play so far as it can be reconstructed"--Publisher's description, back cover of vol. 2.
Cojear con Dios
Jacob pareciera ser cualquier cosa menos un disc&í pulo ejemplar. Es un hombre embustero, mentiroso, ego&í sta y ambicioso que tiene hijos con cuatro mujeres y lidera una familia disfuncional plagada de envidias y traiciones. Pero Jacob es tambié n Israel, el hom&ó nimo de la comunidad de Dios en el Antiguo Testamento, escogido y bendecido. Como tal, este santo pecador que cojea junto al Se&ñ or, agobiado por la debilidad y asediado por los problemas, es el fiel reflejo de todos los que seguimos a Jes&ú s. En su vida vemos nuestras vidas, nuestras luchas, nuestros fracasos y muy especialmente al Dios que nos ama y nos escoge como suyos. Al examinar su biograf&í a, desde su pendencia con Esa&ú en el vientre hasta su muerte en la vejez en Egipto, aprenderemos m&á s acerca de nosotros mismos y el Dios que est&á con nosotros y por nosotros en Jes&ú s el Mes&í as.
Murder among Friends
Modern scholars have followed Aristotle in noting the importance of philia (kinship or friendship) in Greek tragedy, especially the large number of plots in which kin harm or murder one another. More than half of the thirty-two extant tragedies focus on an act in which harm occurs or is about to occur among philoi who are blood kin. In contrast, Homeric epic tends to avoid the portrayal of harm to kin. It appears, then, that kin killing does not merely occur in what Aristotle calls the "best" Greek tragedies; rather, it is a characteristic of the genre as a whole. In Murder Among Friends, Elizabeth Belfiore supports this thesis with an in-depth examination of the crucial role of philia in Greek tragedy. Drawing on a wealth of evidence, she compares tragedy and epic, discusses the role of philia relationships within Greek literature and society, and analyzes in detail the pattern of violation of philia in five plays: Aeschylus' Suppliants, Sophocles' Philoctetes and Ajax, and Euripides' Iphigenia in Tauris and Andromache. Appendixes further document instances of violation of philia in all the extant tragedies as well as in the lost plays of the fifth and fourth centuries B.C.E.

El mundo prodigioso de los ángeles
Si el universo tiene un sentido, una armon�a o una finalidad, entonces est� claro que los hombres -y con ellos los animales y las plantas, que ocupan s�lo un fragmento infinitesimal de este universo- no son necesariamente las �nicas criaturas que habitan en �l. Ser�a perfectamente l�gico que, junto a ellos, existieran otras criaturas, habitando mundos diversos y paralelos, que huir�an de la l�gica con que estamos obligados a conducir nuestra vida en la tierra. En esta dimensi�n se ubicar�an los �ngeles, figuras siempre presentes en las distintas creencias, representadas con im�genes diferentes. En este libro pondremos al descubierto todo lo que hay que saber sobre estos maravillosos seres: jerarqu�a; papel en las distintas religiones, en la cultura y en el arte; diferentes maneras de contactar con ellos.
