Patera, Ioanna
OFFRIR EN GRÈCE ANCIENNE Gestes Et Contextes
Still wrapped in plastic. ; Moyen fréquemment utilisé pour établir une communication avec les dieux, les offrandes ne correspondent pas exactement, telles qu'on les conçoit aujourd'hui, à ce que les Grecs désignaient ainsi. Le vocabulaire qui leur est associé et les contextes dans lesquels elles sont trouvées sont examinés à partir des sources littéraires, épigraphiques et archéologiques. La question est de savoir comment ces objets étaient apportés aux sanctuaires, comment ils étaient dédiés, et quelles valeurs leur étaient attribuées. Les noms grecs de l'offrande différencient en effet les objets selon leurs qualités propres ou selon les occasions de l'acte d'offrir, dont les diverses modalités sont ici détaillées à travers l'examen des dispositifs rituels. Le parcours des objets est donc suivi depuis les lieux et les structures de consécration ou d'exposition jusqu'à la mise au rebut. La diversité des pratiques liées aux offrandes permet de cerner les gestes rituels et de remettre en question leurs interprétations modernes. ; Potsdamer Altertumswissenschaftliche Beiträge 41; 292 pages

Patterson, Cynthia B.
THE FAMILY IN GREEK HISTORY
Very minor shelfwear to book. DJ has minor edgewear and light water-staining. ; The family, Cynthia Patterson demonstrates, played a key role in the political changes that mark the history of ancient Greece. From the archaic society portrayed in Homer and Hesiod to the Hellenistic age, the private world of the family and household was integral with and essential to the civic realm. Early Greek society was rooted not in clans but in individual households, and a man's or woman's place in the larger community was determined by relationships within those households. The development of the city-state did not result in loss of the family's power and authority, Patterson argues; rather, the protection of household relationships was an important element of early public law. The interaction of civic and family concerns in classical Athens is neatly articulated by the examples of marriage and adultery laws. In law courts and in theater performances, violation of marital relationships was presented as a public danger, the adulterer as a sexual thief. This is an understanding that fits the Athenian concept of the city as the highest form of family. The suppression of the cities with the ascendancy of Alexander's empire led to a new resolution of the relationship between public and private authority: the concept of a community of households, which is clearly exemplified in Menander's plays. Undercutting common interpretations of Greek experience as evolving from clan to patriarchal state, Patterson's insightful analysis sheds new light on the role of men and women in Greek culture. ; 286 pages

ROMAN COINS AND PUBLIC LIFE UNDER THE EMPIRE E. Togo Salmon Papers II
Dustjacket is protected in mylar. ; 0.72 x 9.48 x 6.2 Inches; 216 pages; Roman coins often shed light on Roman public life and society through the legends, portraits, and images they bear. The papers collected in this volume were originally presented at the Second E. Togo Salmon Conference on Roman Studies. The eight contributors are specialists in Roman coins or Roman history and in the relations between them. Coins are a unique source of information about the Roman world. In the case of the Roman Empire they were issued by or with the approval of the ruling power. The representations and legends they show therefore present an official view of contemporary affairs. The coins themselves, minted for official purposes such as paying the army, when studied carefully can help reconstruct official policies. They can also occasionally reveal what monuments now lost may have looked like. It is not infrequent to come across pleas that the ancient historian should make more frequent use of numismatic evidence. These essays make clear that efforts are being made both by numismatists and by historians to bring the two disciplines together. At the same time the papers reveal that the task is by no means a straightforward one. The survival of Roman coins is variable, and so attempts to reconstruct the size and distribution of issues calls for skilled and experienced analysis. This collection of papers provides evidence for the kind of deductions that the historian may make from Roman coins as well as the illustrations of the pitfalls that await the unwary. Those interested in Roman history, amateur coin collectors, and professional numismatists will all find much here to widen their knowledge of the public context of Roman coins. Contributors: William E. Metcalf, P. Bruun, Barbara Levick, R. P. Duncan-Jones, Anthony Barrett, Duncan Fishwick, C. E. King, Andrew Burnett.
