‎Byzantine Attica. An Archaeology of Settlement and Landscape (4th-12th Centuries)‎

‎, Brepols, 2024 Paperback, 664 pages, Size:178 x 254 mm, Illustrations:90 b/w, 106 col., 11 maps color, Language: English. ISBN 9782503611204.‎

‎Summary Attica, the region which surrounds Athens (Greece) is a key area for understanding the transformation of the ancient Roman world to its Medieval successor in the eastern Mediterranean. Located at a crossroads for land and maritime communications, being well populated, carrying a thorough administrative organization and a heavy cultural and religious tradition, the region participated in the broader historic evolutions from the 4th to the 12th centuries. Moreover, Attica stands out in contemporary historic and archaeological research due to its very intensive field research, starting in the 19th century and culminating since the 1960s, through rescue excavation and systematic studies. The outcome of this multi-faceted research on field and monuments which concerns the 4th to 12th centuries forms the backbone of the present volume. Stepping beyond this compilation, however, this study proceeds into being a synthesis of evidence on settlement patterns, road communications, defensive works, religious activities and burial habits. These topics are underpinned by aspects which belong to the longue dur e, geography and the natural environment, which are considered as crucial to the understanding of the Byzantine history. In short, the present book covers as many aspects of the studied area as possible, aiming to show the potential of regional studies for the history and archaeology of Late Antiquity and Byzantium.

‎Elliott Cecil D‎

‎Technics and Architecture: The Development of Materials and Systems for Buildings‎

‎Cambridge MA.: MIT Press 1993. Comprehensive text brings together information on a broad range of building materials and systems not found in any existing publication. It identifies the principles underlying technical advances in the building arts pointing out that significant innovations have depended largely on the discovery of new approaches to the problems rather than the polishing of old mechanisms or handcraft methods; that in most cases advances were more rapid when the urgency of development was imposed by uses outside the application of a material or system in buildings; and that the extent of improvements has been extremely uneven. Cecil Elliott focuses on a neglected aspect of architecture the tecnics of building form. Concentrating on developments in Europe and North America from the Industrial Revolution to the present he surveys the ways in which new materials methods and systems were discovered and tested and the ways in which they succeeded or failed. 467 pgs. Illustrated. Dustjacket has a tiny chip on lower front corner which is also very slightly bumped. In mylar. . First Edition Second Printing. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. 4to - over 9�" - 12" tall.

Societies have historically provided clear rituals and rules for the built environment. Recently however the changing conditions of architectural conception and execution have resulted in a need for inventive socially alert planning. This study the first to survey the topic presents architects' ideas about their "people." Contributors such as Robert Gutman and Kent Bloomer provide fourteen diverse essays that look at individual architects--among them Vitruvius. Wright Esherick and Eisenman--and their spoken and written images of social life their design solutions the nature and origins of architects' people and architecturally related policy politics and movements. An original treatment of an increasingly important topic the book will be of interest to a wide range of architects architectural historians social scientists educators and students of design."; 9.20 X 6.20 X 0.90 inches; 320 pages .
