Jörg Rüpke
Pantheon . Una Nuova Storia Della Religione Romana
Traduzione di Alciati R. e Dell'Isola M. Torino, 2018;8vo, rilegatura ed. br., pp. 492. (Biblioteca Einaudi). Pur focalizzandosi principalmente su Roma, "Pantheon" integra le molte tradizioni religiose riscontrabili in tutta l'area mediterranea, per raccontare la storia di un mutamento epocale, quando da un mondo dove si praticavano rituali religiosi si passò a un mondo dove si appartiene a una religione. Il volume, ampiamente illustrato, sottolinea con particolare enfasi la «religione vissuta», una prospettiva che mette in evidenza quanto le esperienze e le pratiche degli individui trasformino la religione in qualcosa di diverso dalla sua forma ufficiale; offrendo in tal modo al lettore una rappresentazione radicalmente nuova della religione romana e di un periodo cruciale per le religioni occidentali, che ha influenzato l'ebraismo, il cristianesimo, l'islam e perfino la stessa idea moderna di «religione». Utilizzando con sapienza fonti letterarie e riscontri archeologici, Rüpke dimostra come la religione romana abbia modellato e sia stata modellata dal mutare dei contesti storici dal IX secolo a.C. al IV d.C. Nel mondo romano essa non costituiva una sfera a sé stante, ed è quindi necessario collocarla sempre in relazione con gli sviluppi politici, sociali, economici e culturali. L'autore sottolinea ogni peculiarità della religione romana, presentando, tra l'altro, una nuova visione di concetti centrali quali «tempio» e «altare», e dei ruoli maschili e femminili nelle pratiche religiose.

K. SERDAR GIRGINER, S. HALUK UYGUR.
Cilicia: Where cultures meet in the shadow of the Taurus and Amanos Mountains.
New English Paperback. Pbo. Cr. 8vo. (21,5 x 12 cm). In English. 336 p. Color ills. "Cilicia played a very important role in the history of civilizations, with its extensive arable lands and its position as a bridge between Anatolia, Mesopotamia and the Eastern Mediterranean, connecting these areas by land, sea and rivers. At the same time, Cilicia created its very own culture, and its peoples carried this culture to other regions, founded independent states, and recorded their languages already in ancient times. It is one of the few regions where over the centuries great inventions were made and major developments occurred in religion, literature, medicine, pharmacy, philosophy, magic and divination. The most important reason for writing this book is to introduce the archaeological and cultural heritage of Cilicia as well as its natural beauty in a convenient handbook, in both English and Turkish, while also summarizing recent developments in the region. It serves not only as a travel guide, but also presents spectacular images of the region. Several travel routes leading from west to east within the region are suggested. It is expected that especially tourism professionals will benefit from this publication.".

Kagan, Donald
The Peloponnesian War
For almost three decades at the end of the fifth century B.C., Athens and Sparta fought a war that changed the Greek world and its civilization forever. A conflict unprecedented in its brutality, the Peloponnesian War brought a collapse in the institutions, beliefs, and customs that were the foundations of society. Today, scholars in fields ranging from international relations and political and military history to political philosophy continue to study the war for its timeless relevance to the history of our own time. Now Donald Kagan, classical scholar and historian of international relations, ancient and modern, presents a sweeping new narrative of this epic contest that captures all its drama, action, and tragedy. In describing the rise and fall of a great empire he examines the clash between two disparate societies, the interplay of intelligence and chance in human affairs, the role of great human beings in determining the course of events, and the challenge of leadership and the limits in which it must operate. The result is an engrossing, fresh perspective on a key historical event that will be welcomed by general readers and history buffs alike-and anyone seeking a better understanding of the pivotal events that shaped the world as we know it. 511p.maps, bibliography,index.

Athena : Aionia Politistiki Protevousa : He Strategiki Yia Tou Politismo
Nikitas Kaklamanis in the pages of his book presents his vision for an Athens established as the Eternal Cultural Capital, which will emerge only with the cooperation of the Greek citizen. "Culture as the art of living in the city can only be the main concern of the citizens of a metropolis. Athens is the metropolis that can incomparably combine the ancient cultural tradition with the modern cultural creation on a global scale. Culture is The means and means of all policies to contribute to the harmonious coexistence of society as a whole and the goal of all together with the policies for the prosperity of the city, the municipality. "In our current living conditions, the need arises for the city to meet politics and culture in an inseparable triptych. That is why politics for the city must, especially in Athens, focus on culture." 117p. [3 copies found in WorldCat] Book

Kalfopoulou, Adrianne
Ruin: Essays in Exilic Living
The essays in Ruin link meditations on teaching, friendship, motherhood, love, the financial meltdown in Greece, the shared language of politics and advertising, Occupy Wall Street, and the Parthenon Marbles into a relentless interrogation of identity and loss. Kalfopoulou's Athens and New York are twinned sites of perpetual dislocation, palimpsests of political, economic, cultural-and personal-crisis. The refugee, the immigrant, the fragmented 'I' charted in these essays-all are studies in exilic living, pilgrims wandering the wreckage of late capitalism.179p. bibliography Book

Kallet, Lisa
MONEY AND THE CORROSION OF POWER IN THUCYDIDES; The Sicilian Expedition and Its Aftermath
University of California Press. 2002. Hardcover. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. Gift inscription from author to Carolyn Dewald on ffep. DJ some a bit of creasing with DJ spine a bit wavy.; 1.13 x 9.38 x 6.3 Inches; 362 pages; Wealth and power are themes that preoccupy much of Greek literature from Homer on and this book unravels the significance of these subjects in one of the most famous pieces of narrative writing from classical antiquity. Lisa Kallet brilliantly reshapes our literary and historical understanding of Thucydides' account of the disastrous Sicilian expedition of 415Ð413 b.c. a pivotal event in the Peloponnesian War. She shows that the second half of Thucydides' History contains a damning critique of Athens and its leaders for becoming corrupted by money and for failing to appropriately use their financial strength on military power. Focusing especially on the narrative techniques Thucydides used to build his argument Kallet gives a close examination of the subjects of wealth and power in this account of naval war and its aftermath and locates Thucydides' writings on these themes within a broad intellectual context. <P>Among other topics Kallet discusses Thucydides' use of metaphor his numerous intertextual references to Herodotus and Homer and thematic links he makes among the topics of money emotion and sight. Overall she shows that the subject of money constitutes a continuous thematic thread in books six through eight of the History. In addition this book takes a fresh look at familiar epigraphic evidence. Kallet's ability to combine sophisticated literary analysis with a firm grasp of Attic inscriptions sheds new light on an important work of antiquity and provides a model example of how to unravel a dense historical text to reveal its underlying literary principles of construction.; Signed by Author . 0520229843 .
