[EAN: 9780292725089], Gebraucht, sehr guter Zustand, [SC: 4.5], [PU: Austin: University of Texas Press], XVII, 148 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Somewhat rubbed binding, otherwise very good. / Etwas beriebener Einband, sonst sehr gut. - Stories of ghostly spirits who return to this world to warn of danger, to prophesy, to take revenge, to request proper burial, or to comfort the living fascinated people in ancient times just as they do today. In this innovative, interdisciplinary study, the author combines a modern folkloric perspective with literary analysis of ghost stories from classical antiquity to shed new light on the stories’ folk roots. The author begins by examining ancient Greek and Roman beliefs about death and the departed and the various kinds of ghost stories which arose from these beliefs. She then focuses on the longer stories of Plautus, Pliny, and Lucian, which concern haunted houses. Her analysis illuminates the oral and literary transmission and adaptation of folkloric motifs and the development of the ghost story as a literary form. In her concluding chapter, the author also traces the influence of ancient ghost stories on modern ghost story writers, a topic that will interest all readers and scholars of tales of hauntings. - D. Felton is Assistant Professor of Classics at Southern Illinois University at Carbondale. ISBN 9780292725089 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 278, Books<
