Book excerpt: Excerpt from Archaeologia Graeca, or the Antiquities of Greece IN this edition - which the Publishers have been induced to undertake by the success of a previous attempt to render more popular Dr Adam's excellent' Summary of Roman Antiquities -much additional and valuable matter has been introduced, in the form of notes and appendices, from the writings of Heeren, Boeckh, Cramer, Leake, Mitchell, Sandford, Cardwell, Muller, and Others, and from several anonymous sources; plans and illustrations have been borrowed from Meyrick, Moses, Montfaucon, Hope, Stuart, and Revett, and other works of acknowledged merit; the style of the Author has in numerous instances been altered, and, it is hoped, improved; many of the authorities 'have been verified by a reference to the best editions of the classics; the Indices have been enlarged; and the two volumes of the original have been reduced, by the use of a smaller type, and by the omission or curtail ment of 'the'quotations with which they Were overloaded, to one cheap and portable volume. With what measure of taste and judgment these altera tions and additions have been made it is not for the Pub lishers to say. They trust that they have at least succeeded, by the reduction of the size and price of the work, in removing what have hitherto been the great obstacles to its adm'ission into many of our classical Institutions.

Book Synopsis Athena Itonia: Geography and Meaning of an Ancient Greek War Goddess by : Gerald Lalonde
Download or read book Athena Itonia: Geography and Meaning of an Ancient Greek War Goddess written by Gerald Lalonde and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-10-21 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With Athena Itonia: Geography and Meaning of an Ancient Greek War Goddess Gerald V. Lalonde offers the first comprehensive history of the martial cult of Athena Itonia, from its origins in Greek prehistory to its demise in the Roman imperial age. The Itonian goddess appears first among the Thessalians and eventually as the patron deity of their famed cavalry. Archaic poets attest to "Athena, warrior goddess" and her festival games at the Itoneion near Boiotian Koroneia. The cult also came south to Athens, probably with the mounted Thessalian allies of Peisistratos. Hellenistic decrees from Amorgos tell of elaborate festival sacrifices to Athena Itonia, likely supplications for protection of the islanders and their maritime trade when piracy plagued the Cyclades after collapse of the Greek naval forces that policed the Aegean Sea. This will be an indispensable volume for all interested in the social, political, and military uses of ancient Greek religious cult and the geography, chronology, and circumstances of its propagation among Greek poleis and federations.

Book Synopsis Sex and Difference in Ancient Greece and Rome by : Golden Mark Golden
Download or read book Sex and Difference in Ancient Greece and Rome written by Golden Mark Golden and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2019-07-30 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume collects and introduces some of the best writing on sexual behaviour and gender differences in ancient Greece and Rome including four chapters newly translated from German and French. For centuries discussions of sexuality and gender in the ancient world, if they took place at all, focussed on how the roles and spheres of the sexes were divided. While men occupied the public sphere of the community, ranged through the Greek and Roman worlds and participated in politics, courts, theatre and sport, women kept to the home. Sex occupied a separate sphere, in scholarly terms restricted to specialists in ancient medicine. And then the subjects were transformed, first by Sir Kenneth Dover, then by Michel Foucault.This book charts and illustrates the extraordinary evolution of scholarly investigation of a once hidden aspect of the ancient world. In doing so it sheds light on fascinating and curious aspects of ancient lives and thought.
Book Synopsis Who Saved the Parthenon? by : William St Clair
Download or read book Who Saved the Parthenon? written by William St Clair and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2022-05-26 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this magisterial book, William St Clair unfolds the history of the Parthenon throughout the modern era to the present day, with special emphasis on the period before, during, and after the Greek War of Independence of 1821–32. Focusing particularly on the question of who saved the Parthenon from destruction during this conflict, with the help of documents that shed a new light on this enduring question, he explores the contributions made by the Philhellenes, Ancient Athenians, Ottomans and the Great Powers. Marshalling a vast amount of primary evidence, much of it previously unexamined and published here for the first time, St Clair rigorously explores the multiple ways in which the Parthenon has served both as a cultural icon onto which meanings are projected and as a symbol of particular national, religious and racial identities, as well as how it illuminates larger questions about the uses of built heritage. This book has a companion volume with the classical Parthenon as its main focus, which offers new ways of recovering the monument and its meanings in ancient times. St Clair builds on the success of his classic text, The Reading Nation in the Romantic Period, to present this rich and authoritative account of the Parthenon’s presentation and reception throughout history. With weighty implications for the present life of the Parthenon, it is itself a monumental contribution to accounts of the Greek Revolution, to classical studies, and to intellectual history.

Book Synopsis Legacies of Ancient Greece in Contemporary Perspectives by : Thomas M. F. Gerry
Download or read book Legacies of Ancient Greece in Contemporary Perspectives written by Thomas M. F. Gerry and published by Vernon Press. This book was released on 2022-04-20 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Legacies of Ancient Greece in Contemporary Perspectives' provides readers with opportunities to reconnect with the origins of thought in an astonishingly wide variety of areas: politics, economics, art, spirituality, gender relations, medicine, literature, philosophy, music, and so on. As the chapters in the book show, Classical Greek thought still informs much of contemporary culture. There are countless books and articles that deal with ancient Greece historically, and a similar number that focus on Greece as a contemporary travel destination. There is both a lot of interest in Greece as a place now, and in Greece’s history and culture, which formed the early origins of much of Western civilisation. The distinctive attraction of 'Legacies of Ancient Greece in Contemporary Perspectives' is that it brings together, by means of fascinating examples, the two areas of interest: Greece’s past in relation to its, and our, present. In addition to the general interest factor, the book suggests questions for re-examination: the individual chapters provide abundant original research on their subjects, and in most cases offer critiques on the assumptions about, and the interpretations of, Greece’s ancient and contemporary cultural practices. These challenges themselves stimulate far-reaching thought and discussion, a feature highly attractive to readers (and students) wishing to develop a more in-depth understanding of the legacies of ancient Greece.
