In Hymnos Eis Nemesin En Te Nike Kai To Nosto Alexandrou Tou Sevastou, Christian Friedrich Graefe composes a classical Greek hymn, an Alexander victory hymn that echoes the splendour of Pindar victory odes and the grave music of Homeric hymn style. The language still sings today. Its cadences reward close listening. Addressing Nemesis, Greek goddess of measure and retribution, this tightly wrought ancient Greek poem intertwines celebration and warning, victory and accountability, conjuring the charged atmosphere of ancient Greece and Macedon and the wider Hellenistic Greek world. As a Greek hymn text written in polished, learned Greek, it offers a rewarding, focused reading experience for classical studies students and an atmospheric, authentic-feeling Greek language learners text for those moving beyond textbooks. Its divine retribution theme, centred on Nemesis balancing the fortunes of Alexander, invites reflection on power, hubris, and fate across the ages, appealing equally to thoughtful casual readers and dedicated collectors of classical literature. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christian Friedrich Graefe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9354443850\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789354443855\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Alpha Edition\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/24\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 30\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.21lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.06d","brand":"Christian Friedrich Graefe","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48996341022975,"sku":"9789354443855","price":19.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hymnos-eis-nemesin-en-te-christian-friedrich-graefe-9789354443855","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
