Tonnes Kleberg
Hôtels, restaurants et cabarets dans l'antiquité romaine
Etudes historiques et philologiques (Bibliotheca Ekmaniana, Universitatis Regiae Upsaliensis. Arbeten utgivna med understod a ƒË V. Ekmans universitetsfond, Uppsala, 61). in-8°, xii + 163 p., 1 index, 21 fig., 1 plan h. t. Cet ouvrage, ecrit en francais et edite a Uppsala, a pour origine unethese du meme auteur, soutenue en 1934, a Goteborg. Il temoigne avan?tageusement d'une tradition toujours vivace dans les Universites suedoises, celle des etudes latines, dont il nous a ete donne jadis, sur place, et pendant plus de deux annees, d'apprecier l'importance. M. Tonnes Kleberg commence son enquete (chap, ƒÇ, p. 1-25 : ?á Termi?Ê nologie, de l'activite hoteliere romaine ?â) par une enquete minutieuse, d'ordre etymologique et semantique, sur une serie de termes ?á de base ?â : caupo, cenatio, deversorium, ganea, ganeum, gurgustium, hospes, lixa, popina, stabulum, tabeYna , thermipolium,*vinarius, Puis, methodique?Ê ment, en fonction de ces termes precises autant qu'il se peut faire, il etudie (chap, ii, p. 26-73 : ?á Les types principaux et leur repartition ?â), faisant recours aux sources archeologiques et litteraires, les divers types d'etablissements hoteliers, qu'il classe, au bout du compte, en deux categories : les hotels-restaurants (vivre et couvert), designes par les mots cauponia, deversorium , hospitium , stabulum , et les bars restaurants, qui sont les popinae et les tabernae.

Torelli Mario
Dei e artigiani. Archeologia delle colonie greche d'Occidente
8vo, br. ed. pp.246. Mario Torelli, fra i maggiori archeologi italiani, analizza e ricostruisce l’insieme delle forme religiose, i culti, le pratiche della devozione dominanti nel mondo greco, quelle che i coloni hanno recato con sé dalla madrepatria. Ne esamina le successive trasformazioni, mostrando anche come queste forme religiose – articolandosi secondo specifici rituali – hanno informato edifici, monumenti e materiali artigianali. Sulla base di una ricchissima documentazione e un vasto materiale di ricerca sul campo durata due secoli di scavi, si sono potuti ricostruire alcuni comportamenti sociali, come il simposio, o la cerimonialità di rituali, come il matrimonio, le dediche votive e le tradizioni patrie di religiosità domestica o funeraria. Le città e le produzioni della Magna Grecia e della Sicilia durante la colonizzazione greca: il racconto di una ‘cultura delle colonie’ fatta di pratiche, consuetudini e simboli che combinano insieme saperi, tecniche e modelli culturali originati nella madrepatria.

Traina Giusto
428 A.D.: An Ordinary Year at the End of the Roman Empire
8vo, cloth n dj 214pp. This is a sweeping tour of the Mediterranean world from the Atlantic to Persia during the last half-century of the Roman Empire. By focusing on a single year not overshadowed by an epochal event, 428 AD provides a truly fresh look at a civilization in the midst of enormous change--as Christianity takes hold in rural areas across the empire, as western Roman provinces fall away from those in the Byzantine east, and as power shifts from Rome to Constantinople. Taking readers on a journey through the region, Giusto Traina describes the empires' people, places, and events in all their simultaneous richness and variety. The result is an original snapshot of a fraying Roman world on the edge of the medieval era. The result is an original snapshot of a fraying Roman world on the edge of the medieval era. Readers meet many important figures, including the Roman general Flavius Dionysius as he encounters a delegation from Persia after the Sassanids annex Armenia; the Christian ascetic Simeon Stylites as he stands and preaches atop his column near Antioch; the eastern Roman emperor Theodosius II as he prepares to commission his legal code; and Genseric as he is elected king of the Vandals and begins to turn his people into a formidable power. We are also introduced to Pulcheria, the powerful sister of Theodosius, and Galla Placidia, the queen mother of the western empire, as well as Augustine, Pope Celestine I, and nine-year-old Roman emperor Valentinian III. Full of telling details, 428 AD illustrates the uneven march of history. As the west unravels, the east remains intact. As Christianity spreads, pagan ideas and schools persist. And, despite the presence of the forces that will eventually tear the classical world apart, Rome remains at the center, exerting a powerful unifying force over disparate peoples stretched across the Mediterranean.

Travel to Greece; Egypt; Turkey; British Palestine
Interwar Travel Photography Mediterranean and Middle East Grand Tour Album Across Europe and British Mandate Palestine 1927
1927. Photo album documenting a multi country group यातà¥à¤°à¤¾ in 1927 records interwar travel across southern Europe and the eastern Mediterranean including regions under colonial administration and recent political transition. The album follows a group of travelers moving from France through Italy Greece Turkey British administered Palestine and Egypt capturing urban landmarks archaeological sites and local populations encountered along the route. The sequence provides visual evidence of tourism infrastructure mobility and cross cultural observation during a period when former imperial territories such as Constantinople were undergoing redefinition following the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire and the establishment of modern nation states.<br /> <br /> Album contains 93 black and white silver gelatin photographs and four real photo postcards with images ranging approximately from 2.5 x 4 inches to 3.5 x 5.5 inches and one larger group photograph measuring about 9 x 7 inches. Photographs are mounted on black paper boards with handwritten captions in white pencil and interleaved tissue guards; string bound in patterned cloth boards. The album opens in Avignon with views of St. Pierre's Church and the Palais des Papes then continues through Italy with scenes of Naples and Pompeii as well as shipboard images captioned S.S. Adriatic. Subsequent sections include Athens with views of the Parthenon followed by Constantinople where four postcards depict the harbor the Sultan Ahmed Mosque and the Hagia Sophia shortly after the end of the Ottoman Empire. In British Mandate Palestine images show street scenes in Nazareth and Jerusalem including sites along the River Jordan the Western Wall and the Garden of Gethsemane alongside a captioned portrait labeled "A Jewish Maiden." The album concludes in Egypt with extensive views of archaeological and urban sites at Thebes Memphis Cairo and Luxor including the Obelisk of Hatshepsut Edfu Temple the tomb of Amenhotep II the Colossi of Memnon and the pyramids and Great Sphinx at Giza where the final group portrait shows the travelers posed on camels.<br /> <br /> Produced during the interwar period the album reflects expanding international tourism networks alongside ongoing European influence in the eastern Mediterranean and Middle East. The juxtaposition of ancient sites modern transport and local populations situates the material within broader histories of archaeology empire and travel culture in the early twentieth century. Light general wear to album and mounts; images well preserved with clear captions; overall very good condition. unknown
