Clark, Grahame
World Prehistory: A New Outline
A brief and stimulating outline of the prehistory of the whole world and the development of mankind in each part of the globe up to the time of recorded history. It starts at the beginning and shows how the distinctive civilizations of mankind, which now enrich human life, have emerged from a common prehistoric past. It does not set out to describe archaeological data, but rather to outline the story of humanity which archaeologists are now able to re-construct. It follows the vast spread and slow progress of human settlement, the growth of civilization and the beginnings of technology in various parts of the earth; a development so uneven that in some countries Professor Clark's story ends thousands of years ago, while in others we still find prehistoric peoples. 329p + plates, Neat tight student reading copy. a few underinings Book

Sulla base della stupefacente quantità di reperti oggi disponibili, l'archeologia è in grado di soccorrere la religione e la filosofia nell'affrontare i problemi che assillano l'umanità da sempre

Claude Sintes
Libye antique-un rêve de marbre
Hardcover, 279 pages, Texte en Francais, 325 x 270 mm, une bon exemplare. ISBN 9782742793495. ène, vouée à Apollon; Sabratha la punique, romaine et byzantine; théâtre maritime d'Apollonia, ou celui, emphatique, de Leptis, aux marbres polychromes tranchant sur le bleu de la mer; douceur mélancolique des églises d'El Latrum (Érythron) et d'Apollonia... L'opulence est la marque de cette Afrique qui donnera à Rome l'un de ses plus grands souverains, Septime Sévère. La fécondité des terres en Cyrénaïque, fertrlés en fruits comme en céréales, propices à l'élevage des chevaux (les attelages d'Archésilas, victorieux à Delphes, furent chantés par Pindare); la culture du silphion, plante médicinale. négociée à prix d'or; mais aussi le commerce en Méditerranée et le contrôle des routes caravanières par Cyrène et Leptis en rendent suffisamment compte. Cette munificence autorise, dès l'époque grecque classique, l'essor d'un urbanisme impressionnant qui ne cessera de s'amplifier lors des vastes pro-grammes d'expansion et de restauration menés à bien sous Ptolémée, Auguste, Hadrien ou Septime. La floraison des mosaïques, romaines à la villa Silin, chrétiennes et imprégnées de thèmes païens dans l'église de Gasr et Libia, exprime pareille richesse. Mais la sublime beauté de la statuaire grecque, hellénistique et romaine, dont les photographies de Gilles Mermet font jaillir lumière et relief, sont le point culminant du livre, animant d'un mouvement cyclique, sur fond noir, "la beauté qui déplace les lignes". Sans visage pourtant, ou d'un geste le dévoilant à peine, les bustes funéraires de la nécropole de Cyrène, uniques dans la statuaire antique, inclassables et sans date, rappellent que l'exubérance vitale se fond aux ombres de la mort. Coup de coeur de nos libraires

Claudine Le Tourneur d'Ison
Lauer et Sakkara de Claudine Le Tourneur d'Ison
Hardcover, 143 pages, Texte en Francais, 290 x 250 mm, Tres belle exemplaire. ISBN 9782235022583. A 97 ans, Jean-Philippe Lauer est devenu une légende vivante. Son nom est à présent indissociable du site qu'il a fait renaître : le complexe funéraire du roi Djoser à Sakkara. Cet ensemble architectural, unique dans l'art égyptien, gisait en ruine sous les sables autour de la fameuse pyramide à degrés lorsque Lauer jeune architecte, commença à l'étudier en 1926. Depuis, il a reconstitué, avec les pierres d'origine, un ensemble de monuments qui ont rendu sa splendeur a l'architecture de son génial concepteur, Imhotep, qui les érigea vers 2 700 avant J-C. Cet ouvrage fait revivre, grâce aux photographies prises par Lauer en Egypte depuis 1926, les paysages autant que les souvenirs de Jean-Philippe et de son épouse Mimi, un couple dont l'histoire restera à jamais liée ci l'histoire de Sakkara.
