Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mit dieser zweibandigen Arbeit wird ein umfassendes neues Zitierwerk fur die Munzpragung des romischen Kaisers Traianus (98-117) vorgelegt. Es verzeichnet in einem systematisch aufgebauten Katalogteil, der auf der Basis von ca. 24.000 Einzelbelegen erstellt ist, in bisher nicht gekannter Prazision alle Typen und Varianten traianischer Reichsmunzen. Besonderes Augenmerk gilt der Systematisierung der vielfaltigen Bustendarstellungen des kaiserlichen Munzbildnisses sowie der relativen und absoluten Chronologie der Munzpragung - vor allem in der Rekonstruktion des Prageablaufs fur die so problematische Periode des funften Kaiserconsulats (103-111): Fur diese Zeitspanne wurde auch eine neue Analyse der numismatischen Portraittypologie Traians durchgefuhrt, die im Kontext der Entwicklung des rundplastischen Kaiserbildes diskutiert wird. Das Buch enthalt neben dem Katalog, der auch ausfuhrliche Materialnachweise und Angaben zur relativen Haufigkeit der einzelnen Typen und Varianten bieten kompakte Pragetabellen zur raschen Orientierung sowie einen Einleitungsteil zu allen relevanten historischen, finanzgeschichtlichen, numismatischen und doxographischen Aspekten. Ein umfangreicher Kommentarteil erlautert die gewahlte Ordnung; mehrere Indices und Konkordanzen zur bisher vorliegenden Zitierliteratur sowie ein umfassender Bildteil von 164 Tafeln machen das Werk in Hinkunft zu einem unentbehrlichen Arbeitsinstrument.

Book Synopsis Recent Advances in Laser Ablation ICP-MS for Archaeology by : Laure Dussubieux
Download or read book Recent Advances in Laser Ablation ICP-MS for Archaeology written by Laure Dussubieux and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-05 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores different aspects of LA-ICP-MS (laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry). It presents a large array of new analytical protocols for elemental or isotope analysis. LA-ICP-MS is a powerful tool that combines a sampling device able to remove very small quantities of material without leaving visible damage at the surface of an object. Furthermore, it functions as a sensitive analytical instrument that measures, within a few seconds, a wide range of isotopes in inorganic samples. Determining the elemental or the isotopic composition of ancient material is essential to address questions related to ancient technology or provenance and therefore aids archaeologists in reconstructing exchange networks for goods, people and ideas. Recent improvements of LA-ICP-MS have opened new avenues of research that are explored in this volume.

Book Synopsis Individuals and Materials in the Greco-Roman Cults of Isis (SET) by : Valentino Gasparini
Download or read book Individuals and Materials in the Greco-Roman Cults of Isis (SET) written by Valentino Gasparini and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-10-16 with total page 1191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Individuals and Materials in the Greco-Roman Cults of Isis Valentino Gasparini and Richard Veymiers present a collection of reflections on the individuals and groups which animated one of Antiquity’s most dynamic, significant and popular religious phenomena: the reception of the cults of Isis and other Egyptian gods throughout the Hellenistic and Roman worlds. These communities, whose members seem to share the same religious identity, for a long time have been studied in a monolithic way through the prism of the Cumontian category of the “Oriental religions”. The 26 contributions of this book, divided into three sections devoted to the “agents”, their “images” and their “practices”, shed new light on this religious movement that appears much more heterogeneous and colorful than previously recognized.

Book Synopsis Explaining Monetary and Financial Innovation by : Peter Bernholz
Download or read book Explaining Monetary and Financial Innovation written by Peter Bernholz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-06-26 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses theories of monetary and financial innovation and applies them to key monetary and financial innovations in history – starting with the use of silver bars in Mesopotamia and ending with the emergence of the Eurodollar market in London. The key monetary innovations are coinage (Asia minor, China, India), the payment of interest on loans, the bill of exchange and deposit banking (Venice, Antwerp, Amsterdam, London). The main financial innovation is the emergence of bond markets (also starting in Venice). Episodes of innovation are contrasted with relatively stagnant environments (the Persian Empire, the Roman Empire, the Spanish Empire). The comparisons suggest that small, open and competing jurisdictions have been more innovative than large empires – as has been suggested by David Hume in 1742.
Book Synopsis Corpus Inscriptionum et Monumentorum Religionis Mithriacae by : M.J. Vermaseren
Download or read book Corpus Inscriptionum et Monumentorum Religionis Mithriacae written by M.J. Vermaseren and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The publication of this Corpus Inscriptionum et Monumentorum Religionis M ithriacae is due mainly to the activities of the Koninklijke Vlaamse Academie van Wetenschappen, Kunsten en Schone Letteren (The Royal Flemish Academy of Arts and Sciences) at Brussels, for this work was begun as an entry in a compe tition organized by their Department of Fine Arts and Literature. It was then awarded a prize by a committee elected by the Academy and consisting of the theologian Prof. J. Coppens, the orientalist Prof. G. Rijckmans and the archaeolo gist, the late Prof. H. van de Weerd. Among the first who should be mentioned with respect and gratitude is my teacher Dr. F.J. de Waele, Professor in Archaeology and Ancient History at the Nijmegen University and member of the Royal Flemish Academy. This remarkable teacher inspired a deep interest in the study of Archaeology and of the Mithras cult, and his help has always been invaluable. I am also greatly indebted to the renowned Belgian scholar Prof. Franz Cumont. He was among the first to recognize the necessity of a revision of his standard work Textes et Monuments relatifs aux Mysteres de Mithra. During the last few years before his de'ath he showed a lively interest in the present study, supplied much material and often gave advice, devoting a great part of his leisure and his love of Classical Culture to this new publication of the Mithraic Monuments.
Book Synopsis Violence in the Ancient and Medieval Worlds by : Nuno Simões Rodrigues
Download or read book Violence in the Ancient and Medieval Worlds written by Nuno Simões Rodrigues and published by . This book was released on 2019-03-20 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being an integral element of how humans interact with one another, violence, however disruptive, often also manifests itself as an ordering force. In this collection of essays, the contributing authors explore this particular aspect of violence from a wide variety of perspectives, in a set of studies that focus on both the ancient and medieval worlds. Case-studies in the section on Antiquity include work on such issues as domestic violence; violence and myth; violence in Greek and Roman historiography, poetry, comedy and tragedy, and art; women and violence; violence and pollution; and various studies on classical Greek and Roman perceptions of violence. The medieval section continues with papers that look into the role of violence in the saints' lives and passions, violence in the love poems of the carmina burana, as well as several studies that center on actual cases of violence, such as violence and women in medieval Galicia and violence at Portuguese universities during the High Middle Ages. This book is essential reading for everyone interested in how and why violence came to be embedded in the cultural practices of classical Greece, ancient Rome, and medieval Europe.

Book Synopsis Greek Gods Abroad by : Robert Parker
Download or read book Greek Gods Abroad written by Robert Parker and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2017-05-23 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From even before the time of Alexander the Great, the Greek gods spread throughout the Mediterranean, carried by settlers and largely adopted by the indigenous populations. By the third century b.c., gods bearing Greek names were worshipped everywhere from Spain to Afghanistan, with the resulting religious systems a variable blend of Greek and indigenous elements. Greek Gods Abroad examines the interaction between Greek religion and the cultures of the eastern Mediterranean with which it came into contact. Robert Parker shows how Greek conventions for naming gods were extended and adapted and provides bold new insights into religious and psychological values across the Mediterranean. The result is a rich portrait of ancient polytheism as it was practiced over 600 years of history.
