Book Synopsis Rome and the Friendly King (Routledge Revivals) by : David Braund
Download or read book Rome and the Friendly King (Routledge Revivals) written by David Braund and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rome and the Friendly King, first published in 1984, offers a functional definition of what is usually called client kingship – to show what a client king (or ‘friendly king’, to use the Roman term) was in practice. Each aspect of this complex role is examined over a period of six centuries: the making of a king; exposure to Roman institutions and individuals; formal recognition as a friendly ruler. Professor Braund shows how the king’s power related to Roman authority, and to his subjects. The role of Romans in royal wills, principally as recipients of bequests, is also examined, and it is also shown how some kings were assimilated completely into Roman society to become senators in their own right. In conclusion, Professor Braund considers the ways in which both sides benefited from client kingship and, in doing so, helps to explain the persistent use of such relationships throughout history.

Book Synopsis Antiquities Acquired by : Catherine Philippa Bracken
Download or read book Antiquities Acquired written by Catherine Philippa Bracken and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the extraordinary, often shocking, story of how Greece was despoiled of much of her treasures in the early nineteenth century -- The treasures that are now priceless exhibits in the great museums of the world. Lord Elgin acquired the famous marbles that bear his name, but he was not the only one to take part in a kind of free-for-all, not so far removed from modern vandalism: many amateur and semi-professional collectors were at work, taking what they could get for paltry sums, bribes or nothing at all, blissfully blind to the havoc they wrecked... Miss Bracken has lived for long periods in Greece, visiting sites of its classical civilisation. Her interest in the spoliators was first aroused by the names carved with laborious care on many of the monuments; one example is the column at Delphi inscribed by Lords Aberdeen and Bryon. This is a book that will fill in the often colourful background to Greek treasures in museums and Greece itself.

Book Synopsis Looking at Greek Vases by : Tom Rasmussen
Download or read book Looking at Greek Vases written by Tom Rasmussen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1991-07-26 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An ancient Greek vase is a difficult object for the non-expert to come to terms with. Faced with rows of apparently undifferentiated black, red and buff pots, he or she is at a loss as to where to begin. Greek vases are treated as objets d'art in the modern world, but how much were they worth in the ancient? They are often used to demonstrate 'the Greek genius' and aspects of ancient Greek society, but why do many of them carry Eastern motifs, and why do so many turn up in Italy? Why were the Greeks not content with simple patterns on their pottery? What did the pictures on the pots mean to them? Why should a vase depict a scene from a play? These are the sorts of questions that this book, first published in 1991, attempts to answer. As the title implies, it is a series of 'looks' at Greek vases, offering suggestions on how to read the often complex images they present.

Download or read book Byzantium and Islam written by Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York, N.Y.) and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 2012 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This magnificent volume explores the epochal transformations and unexpected continuities in the Byzantine Empire from the 7th to the 9th century. At the beginning of the 7th century, the Empire's southern provinces, the vibrant, diverse areas of North Africa and the eastern Mediterranean, were at the crossroads of exchanges reaching from Spain to China. These regions experienced historic upheavals when their Christian and Jewish communities encountered the emerging Islamic world, and by the 9th century, an unprecedented cross- fertilization of cultures had taken place. This extraordinary age is brought vividly to life in insightful contributions by leading international scholars, accompanied by sumptuous illustrations of the period's most notable arts and artifacts. Resplendent images of authority, religion, and trade—embodied in precious metals, brilliant textiles, fine ivories, elaborate mosaics, manuscripts, and icons, many of them never before published— highlight the dynamic dialogue between the rich array of Byzantine styles and the newly forming Islamic aesthetic. With its masterful exploration of two centuries that would shape the emerging medieval world, this illuminating publication provides a unique interpretation of a period that still resonates today.
