Le pagine sono indicate come "da/a", ad esempio: 229/231 significa che il testo è composto da tre pagine. Quando la rivista di provenienza non viene indicata é perché ci è sconosciuta. - !!

Thommen Lukas
L'ambiente nel mondo antico
brossura Il volume descrive i caratteri fondamentali del rapporto fra l'uomo e la natura nell'antichità greco-romana, dal IX secolo a.C. al V d.C. Esso studia in primo luogo lo spazio geografico e la percezione che il mondo antico aveva della natura: la visione mitica, la teoria scientifica dei quattro elementi, il determinismo climatico, il rapporto con gli animali e le piante. In secondo luogo esamina l'intervento concreto dell'uomo, come l'attività agricola, l'approvvigionamento alimentare, lo sfruttamento del legname, l'orticoltura, i danni causati dalle guerre, le opere di canalizzazione, le attività estrattive, i problemi legati all'urbanizzazione; e per altro verso l'effetto sull'uomo degli eventi naturali come lospostamento delle linee di costa, l'insabbiamento delle foci, i terremoti, gli incendi, le eruzioni.

MEMPHIS UNDER THE PTOLEMIES
Princeton University Press. Very Good- in Good dust jacket. 1989. Hardcover. 0691035938 . Ex-library copy with usual stamps call numbers to DJ and traces of removed circulation pastedown. A few cellotape stains to inner covers else Book is VG. ; 1.25 x 9.5 x 6.5 Inches; 376 pages; The city of Memphis on the Nile which had often served as capital in the long period preceding Egypt's conquest by Alexander the Great became the country's "second city" following the founding of Alexandria. Drawing on archaeological findings and on an unusual combination of Greek and Egyptian evidence Dorothy Thompson examines the city's economic life and the character of its multi-racial society in the era from Alexander to Augustus. Memphis under the Ptolemies will interest students of intercultural relations and will be essential reading for Egyptologists papyrologists and historians of the Hellenistic world including those concerned with religion. The relationship of the native population with the Greek-speaking immigrants is illustrated in Thompson's analysis of the position of Memphite priests within the Ptolemaic state. Egyptians continued to control mummification and the cult of the dead; the undertakers of the Memphite necropolis were barely touched by things Greek. The cult of the living Apis bull also remained primarily Egyptian; yet on death the bull deified as Osorapis became Sarapis for the Greeks. Within this god's sacred enclosure the Sarapieion is found a strange amalgam of Greek and Egyptian cultures. . Princeton University Press hardcover
