Philodemus, On Anger (Writings from the Greco-roman World) (Writings from the Greco-Roman World, 45)

<p>"This English translation of On Anger provides a newly read and supplemented Greek text of one of the most important "Herculaneum papyri," the only collection of literary texts to survive the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 CE. On Anger is our sole evidence for the Epicurean view of what constitutes natural and praiseworthy anger, as distinguished from unnatural pleasure in vengeance and cruelty for their own sake, a view that can be shown to have influenced Latin authors like Cicero, Horace and Virgil"--</p>

<p>The Special Operations Executive (SOE) was the paramount Allied sabotage force of the Second World War. Its job, in Churchill's words, was 'to set Europe ablaze' by means of sabotage, insurrection and assassination. One of SOE's great 'legends' was the close-combat pistol instructor Colonel Hector Grant-Taylor. Grant-Taylor trained commandos, secret agents and irregular soldiers in the art of killing face to face. The founding principles of his instruction were ruthlessness and stealth, and as one might expect from a man who pioneered such an art, Grant-Taylor's own life was a mystery worthy of a John Buchan thriller. Misinformation, deception, bravery, killing and ultimately redemption all played a part in his story. At Close Quarters presents a fascinating history of close quarter combat from before the First World War to the present day, paying tribute to the remarkable legacy of Colonel Hector Grant-Taylor. It finally puts to rest the myths that surround Grant-Taylor's extraordinary life, while, for the first time.</p>
