DIETZ, G., and H.A. KICK, Grenzsituationen und neues Ethos. Von Homers Weltsicht zum modernen Menschenbild. Universitätsverlag Carl Winter, Heidelberg, 2005. 112p. Cartonaged. In den zwei Beiträgen der interdisziplinären Studie untersuchen und interpretieren Homerphilologe Günter Dietz sowie Psychotherapeut und Medizinethiker Hermes Andreas Kick das Verhalten der mythischen Helden Achill und Odysseus in Grenzsituationen und ihren Weg zu einem neuen Lebensethos, das sich zugleich auch als Basis europäischen Kulturbewußtseins erweist. Als kategoriale Deutungsmuster fungieren das Modell der mehrstufigen Kairos-Struktur und Homers 'Bild der Seele' (Dietz) sowie das Dreiphasen-Modell zur Überwindung von Dominanzemotionen (Kick), dargestellt auch in Tabellen und Abbildungen. Gerade Odysseus zeigt sich (bei Homer und in moderner Sicht) als Prototyp des sich überlegt und genial frei spielenden und doch in die Synergie mit der Gottheit integrierten Menschen. Dieses Synergiebewußtsein ist im Kairos klar ausgeprägt oder latent wirksam. Zwei Glossare (homerische und psychologische Grundbegriffe) erläutern die verwendeten Begriffe. Zusätzlich wird der psychologisch relevante Wortschatz Homers verdeutlicht. € 26.50 (New)

DIGGLE, J., Studies on the Text of Euripides. Supplices. Electra. Heracles. Troades. Iphigenia in Tauris. Ion. Clarendon Press, Oxford, 1981. XV,127p. Cloth. Small personal library mark on tail spine as well as free endpaper. Name on free endpaper. ‘… there is probably no one better equipped to succeed in re-editing all Euripides for our time. (…) Reading these six plays with him constantly taxes knowledge and sensitivity to Euripides’ whole style, of word and stage, and often requires much thought to follow D.’s understanding of the poet’s intention (…). That is a proper demand upon a reader’s alertness and decision, by an editor so scrupulous with evidence, so generous, and fair, with conjecture and argument.’ (Christopher Collard in The Classical Review (New Series), 1984, p.15). From the library of the late Sir Kenneth James Dover. € 37.50 (Antiquarian)

DIGGLE, J., Euripidea. Collected Essays. Clarendon Press, Oxford, 1994. X,559p. Cloth. Small personal library marks on tail spine as well as free endpaper. Name on free endpaper. Nice copy. ‘The book is essentially a collection of material scattered in many periodicals, some not readily available. It will serve as an indispensable companion to the text for readers seeking amplification in moments of surprise or scepticism at D.'s readings. (…) D.'s knowledge of, and feeling for, Euripidean idiom are formidable. Throughout, D. demonstrates by shining example the ways in which close attention to textual, linguistic, and metrical detail – dismissed by many in these philistine days as trivial and tiresome minutiae – can enhance understanding of wider dramatic and literary questions (…). In the papers of this impeccably produced book the scholarship is meticulously precise, the argumentation watertight, the expression pellucid. The reviewer is left with little more to say.’ (E.M. CRAIK, Classical Review (New Series), 1996, p.369). From the library of the late Sir Kenneth James Dover. € 115.00 (Antiquarian)
