Sewell Brian
South From Ephesus ; Travels in Aegean Turkey
London: Tauris Parke Paperbacks 2012 Weary of what he called the tyranny of western art Brian Sewell first visited Turkey - a country that had captivated him since he was a boy - in 1975. He thought that there anything he found would have no relevance to the European art that he had so compulsively stitched into the dense fabric of my art-historical memory and that he could therefore enjoy the art for its own sake. But Turkey surprised him and he delighted in the unexpected wealth of Greek Roman Byzantine and Islamic cultures there returning three of four times a year until 1990. The main bulk of this book focuses on his journey from Ephesus to Side one winter. With typically acerbic commentary Sewell describes not always favourably the archaeological and historical sites he comes across the landscapes that so clearly thrilled him the encounters he has along the way and the fractious though wonderfully funny relationship he forms with Ayhan his driver. South from Ephesus is an incomparable portrait of Turkey and its artistic heritage - a book that could only have been written by Sewell and which has become a quirky classic of travel literature. 266p plates bibliography .index.

Scholar's name to ffep Robert Brown. ; 0.68 x 8.41 x 5.53 Inches; 272 pages; Shay works from an intriguing premise: that the study of the great Homeric epic of war The Iliad can illuminate our understanding of Vietnam and vice versa. Along the way he compares the battlefield experiences of men like Agamemnon and Patroclus with those of frontline grunts analyzes the berserker rage that overcame Achilles and so many American soldiers alike and considers the ways in which societies ancient and modern have accounted for and dealt with post-traumatic stress disorder---a malady only recently recognized in the medical literature but well attested in Homer's pages. .

Sheldon Rose Mary
Intelligence Activities in Ancient Rome. Trust in Gods But Verifiy
8vo, br. ed. Professor Sheldon uses the modern concept of the intelligence cycle to trace intelligence activities in Rome whether they were done by private citizens, the government, or the military. Examining a broad range of activities the book looks at the many types of espionage tradecraft that have left their traces in the ancient sources: * intelligence and counterintelligence gathering * covert action * clandestine operations * the use of codes and ciphers Dispelling the myth that such activities are a modern invention, Professor Sheldon explores how these ancient spy stories have modern echoes as well. What is the role of an intelligence service in a free republic? When do the security needs of the state outweigh the rights of the citizen? If we cannot trust our own security services, how safe can we be? Although protected by the Praetorian Guard, seventy-five percent of Roman emperors died by assassination or under attack by pretenders to his throne. Who was guarding the guardians?
