‎La maison de bois rond technique de construction scandinave‎

‎�ditiions de Mortagne 1989 La technique scandinave de construction en bois rond est une m�thode raffin�e qui plaira � tous les amoureux du bois. Elle permet d'allier �tanch�it� isolation solidit� beaut� et long�vit� dans un m�me projet. Elle permet de passer du produit brut au produit fini tout en respectant les propri�t�s naturelles du bois. Une maison en bois rond a pour caract�ristique de s'affaisser en s�chant. En effet le diam�tre des billots diminuera en moyenne de 3/4 de pouce par pied 1cm pour 15 cm sur une p�riode de 2 � 5 ans. Plut�t que d'interf�rer dans ce processus d'affaissement la technique scandinave permet � la maison de se tasser sur elle-m�me et apporte un soin tout particulier � la coupe des ouvertures. De plus le bouvetage des billots sur toute leur longueur lors de l'affaissement augmente l'�tanch�it� de la maison en bois rond. �ditiions de Mortagne paperback‎

‎Leptis magna : la splendeur et l'oubli‎

‎Hardcover, 207 pages, Francais, 310 x 270 mm, Etat Tres BON?. ISBN 9782705664923. Ancienne colonie phénicienne devenue romaine au deuxième siècle avant notre ère, Leptis Magna fit fortune grâce au commerce de l'or, de l'ivoire, des peaux et des esclaves tirés de l'Afrique subsaharienne. Ville natale de l'Empereur Septime Sévère, elle atteignit l'apogée de sa renommée et de sa prospérité sous le règne de ce prince (193-211), qui la dota de monuments splendides, dont le plus imposant, la grande basilique sévérienne, s'élevait à plus de cent pieds de hauteur. À partir du troisième siècle, la crise politique, économique, sociale et militaire qui déchira l'ensemble du monde romain frappa durement Leptis Magna, victime des incursions des Berbères rebelles, puis envahie et occupée tour à tour par les Vandales, les Byzantins et enfin les Arabes au septième siècle. Ruinée, abandonnée, la cité finit par disparaître doucement sous les sables du désert. Aujourd'hui, grâce aux travaux des archéologues, cette cité exceptionnelle, encore injustement méconnue, connaît un regain d'intérêt. Ce livre rend hommage à cet ensemble exceptionnel, dont l'oubli par les grands flux touristiques a permis de préserver toutes les traces de sa splendeur.‎

‎Summary La caduta di San Giovanni d'Acri nel 1291, che segna la fine degli stati crociati d'Oltremare, rappresenta un punto di svolta nella storia medievale, gi percepito come tale dai contemporanei. Sulla scia immediata dell'evento, due scritti narrano e commentano la battaglia: l'anonima Excidii Aconis gestorum collectio (composta probabilmente nel Nord della Francia) e l'Ystoria de desolatione et conculcatione ciuitatis Acconensis et tocius Terre Sancte di Taddeo di Napoli, venata di influssi gioachimiti. Entrambi ripercorrono con impressionante vividit le vicende che hanno portato allo scontro e soprattutto la disperata resistenza della citt , mettendo in scena una molteplicit di personaggi nelle loro dinamiche di collaborazione e dissenso: i maestri degli Ordini Militari, i governanti e il patriarca, la folla dei combattenti e delle vittime inermi; dall'altra parte, i due sultani che si succedono nel corso degli eventi con il loro popolo di ?infedeli?, sinistri eppure valorosi. Lo stile adottato dall'Anonimo e da Taddeo improntato a un preziosismo al limite talvolta della comprensibilit , che rende ardua la lettura nell'originale latino. La traduzione italiana mette a disposizione in modo pi facilmente accessibile due fonti fondamentali per la storia delle crociate e della percezione di esse nella cultura del tempo. La versione latina originale dei testi qui tradotti pubblicata nella collana Corpus Christianorum, Continuatio Mediaeualis con il titolo Excidii Aconis gestorum collectio; Ystoria de desolatione et conculcatione ciuitatis Acconensis et tocius Terre Sancte (CC CM, 202), a cura di R.B.C. Huygens (2004). I rimandi alle pagine corrispondenti dell'edizione sono forniti a margine di questa traduzione.

‎Jebel al-Mutawwaq. A Fourth Millennium BCE Village and Dolmen Field. Six Years of Spanish?Italian Excavations (2012?2018)‎

‎, Brepols, 2024 Paperback, xiv + 270 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:161 b/w, 6 col., 43 tables b/w., 1 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503609393.‎

‎Summary The Early Bronze Age site of Jebel al-Mutawwaq, located on a hill overlooking the Zarqa River in Jordan, was a thriving centre of population from the second half of the fourth millennium into the third millennium BCE. During this time, the settlement developed both in population and social complexity, undergoing the beginnings of an urbanization process that fundamentally changed the relationship between this community of the Transjordanian Highlands with the surrounding landscape, until it was completely abandoned around 2900 BCE. This volume offers a new assessment of the site by combining data from the first surveys of the site, under a Spanish team led by J. A. Fernandez-Tresguerres, with the new results from six seasons of excavations led by teams from Perugia in Italy, and San Esteban in Spain. In doing so, this work sheds new light on this walled settlement and its huge megalithic necropolises, and offers a fresh understanding of the site.

‎Summary This volume investigates settlement trajectories and systems of movement in the Birecik-Carchemish sector of the Euphrates River Valley from the fifth to the third millennium BCE. Integrating remote sensing analyses, published data of individual surveys and excavations, and the original results of the ?Land of Carchemish Project', this multi-scalar study shows the significant longevity of settlement choices and the role of small sites in shaping the cultural landscape of the region, both along the Euphrates and in the uplands. Attention is paid to the dynamics behind settlement creation and continuity, while the author also provides a reassessment of the radiocarbon dates from sites in the area of study.

‎Representations of Saint Anne and the Virgin Mary from the Middle Ages to the Early Modern Period. Exploring Iconographic Flexibility and Permeability‎

‎, Brepols, 2025 Paperback, 189 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:31 b/w, 39 col., 1 maps b/w, Language: English. *new ISBN 9782503608853.‎

‎Summary Between the thirteenth and the sixteenth centuries, the cult of the Virgin Mary underwent significant changes, a shift clearly revealed by an increase in artistic representations of Mary, as well as a flourishing devotional literature in her honour, written in both Latin and the vernacular. One aspect of this change was a broader attention to Mary's genealogical line, and in particular to her relationship with St Anne. The result was not only a renewed focus on the vita Annae, but also a significant overlap in how these two women were represented, juxtaposed, and perceived. This volume traces the often significant iconographic flexibility in terms of both how the Virgin Mary and Saint Anne were presented and perceived, and what can be termed a permeability between visual representations of the two saints. Focusing on the multiple readings, layers of meaning, and the visual interplay between the vita Mariae and the vita Annae, the chapters gathered here explore the overlap and influence between different iconographic motifs, and how these were used to advance political, religious, and social ideologies at the time of their creation, as well as exploring representations across a range of different media, from sculptures and frescoes to panel paintings, and manuscript illuminations.

‎Summary Andrew of Saint Victor was one of the most prominent biblical scholars of the twelfth century. He was a regular canon of the Parisian abbey of St Victor, which in the twelfth century had developed into a prestigious center of spiritual learning, closely connected to the nascent university in Paris. Because of his frequent use of Jewish exegetical materials, Andrew's commentaries are a rich source for the history both of biblical hermeneutics and of inter-religious dialogue during the Middle Ages. His Isaiah commentary caused outrage among medieval Christian scholars because it eschewed traditional christological interpretations, and instead offered a reading "secundum Hebraeos." Scholars have seen Andrew of St Victor as standing at the cradle of a scholarly interest in the Biblical text, which influenced scholars such as the fourteenth-century Franciscan Nicholas of Lyra, and, in the long run, reformers such as John Wycliff, Martin Luther, and John Calvin.‎

‎A new edition of Andreas H. Bitesnich's classic portrait of India, a timeless photographic masterpiece capturing the breathtaking beauty and complexity of the world?s largest democracy. India is constantly on the move. It moves sideways, backwards, upwards, and forwards. It is a nation of both past and future, where time seems to pass by its own laws, and extraordinary tradition coexists with hyper modernity and ever-booming construction. For many, India is as much a state of mind as a country. Through this photographic journey of discovery, Andreas H. Bitesnich creates a fascinating book about India, revealing many facets of this intricate, populous country. In color, black-and-white, and sepia, his stunning photographs show Indian culture, food, faith, heritage, landmarks, cities, and wildlife, as well as its daily interactions and centuries-old monuments. The images do not shy away from the complexity and raw hardship of Indian life. With honesty and respect, Bitesnich documents the country?s ongoing struggles as much as its vibrancy and growth. We see India?s temples and mosques, its wild Indian elephants, its extraordinary architecture, and its deep spirituality. And we see its urban sprawl, its squalor, its street poverty, and suffering. The result is a photo book immersed in the Indian present and complexity, while steeped in the texture and gravitas of a bygone travel album.‎
