‎Chryselephantine Statuary in the Ancient Mediterranean World‎

‎Oxford, Oxford University Press, 2002 hardcover, Faux-linnen bound with dustjacket, 241 pages + 249 illustrations, 28 x 23 cm. ENG text . As new. ISBN 9780198153115.‎

‎Composite statues of gold (chrysos), ivory (elephas), and other precious materials were the most celebrated artworks of classical antiquity. Greek and Latin authors leave no doubt that such images provided a centrepiece for religious and civic life and that vast sums were spent to produce them. A number of these statues were the creations of antiquity's most highly acclaimed artists: Polykleitos, Alkamenes, Leochares, and, of course, Pheidias, whose magnificent Zeus Olympios came to be ranked among the Seven Wonders of the World. Although a few individual images such as Pheidias' Athena Parthenos have been the subject of detailed scholarly analysis, chryselephantine statuary as a class, from the exquisite statuettes of Minoan Crete to the majestic temple images constructed by classical Greek city-states and imitated by the Romans, has not received comprehensive study since 1815. This book presents not only the ancient literary and epigraphical evidence for lost statues and examines representations of them in other media, but also assembles and analyses much-neglected physical survivals, elucidating throughout the innovative techniques, such as ivory-bending, employed in their production as well as the variety of social, religious, and political roles they played within the ancient societies that produced them.‎

‎Palmyra and the East‎

‎, Brepols, 2022 Paperback, xx + 181 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:103 b/w, 3 col., 6 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503598253.‎

‎Summary The ancient caravan city of Palmyra, although located in the Syrian Desert, was very much a cultural locus, a place where peoples, goods, and ideas met and mingled from as far afield as Europe to the west and India and China to the east. It was a city that stood balanced between the power of the Roman Empire to one side, and the Parthian Empire to the other. Yet despite the city's location at a cultural crossroads, and its greater proximity to Parthia than Rome, scholars focusing on Palmyra have traditionally focused on links with the west, while relatively little attention has been paid to the threads that wove a connection between Palmyra and regions further to the east. This edited volume seeks to address this lacuna in scholarship by offering an in-depth exploration of Palmyra's connections with its eastern neighbours in the first three centuries ad. The papers gathered here examine the city's art, architecture, and material finds, its languages and inscriptions, its political interactions, social life, and religious identity from a time when Palmyra was at the height of its powers in order to shed light on the city's own distinctive identity, as well as its close ? and often tense ? relationships with Parthia and beyond. Together, these contributions offer fascinating new insights into Palmyra's dynamic relationships with the regions to its east, as well as on how these influences underpinned and were diffused throughout Palmyrene culture.

‎Egypte des pharaons‎

‎Hardcover, 287 pages, Texte en Francais, 285 x 240 mm, Tres belle exemplaire. ISBN 9782845820241. Il faut voir à l'aube, les pyramides de Gizeh pour comprendre l'étonnement qu'inspirent encore au monde les réalisations de l'Egypte antique. Cet empire dirigé par des dieux-rois omnipotents et héréditaires, cette société sophistiquée qui s'épanouit plus de trois mille ans, exercent une fascination perpétuelle, un attrait exotique qu'évoque superbement ce formidable portrait. Voici Karnak, Louqsor et la Vallée des Rois ; voici encore le Nil éternel, au bord duquel viennent à notre rencontre les figures légendaires de Toutankhamon, de Néfertiti, de Ramsès et de Cléopâtre, parmi des milliers d'autres Egyptiens, grands et modestes - des humbles marchands et agriculteurs aux pharaons des 31 dynasties immortalisés par des monuments qui comptent parmi les plus envoûtants du monde. Ouvrage complet, haut en couleurs, L'Egypte des pharaons est tout à la fois une ambitieuse chronique et l'élégante célébration d'un monde fabuleux, dont l'éclat perdure vingt siècles plus tard. Embrassant plus de trois millénaires, traversés par les noms les plus illustres de Ramsès, de Néfertiti et de Toutankhamon, L'Egypte des pharaons brosse un magnifique portrait de cette culture antique à laquelle nous devons les pyramides, le Sphinx et d'innombrables merveilles. A l'aube de cette grande civilisation, une mosaïque de royaumes était établie dans la plaine fertile du Nil. Ce livre est une ambitieuse chronique qui retrace la construction de l'Egypte et l'édification d'un Empire qui dura trois mille ans. De somptueuses photographies restituent la grandeur de la Vallée des Rois, la beauté des reliefs et font revivre les pharaons, les prêtres et les danseuses, ainsi que le spectacle plurimillénaire des felouques sillonnant le Nil. Le captivant récit de Brian Fagan ne s'en tient pas aux figures légendaires, aux événements majeurs et aux réalisations colossales de l'Egypte ; l'auteur explore tous les aspects d'une société lettrée, extrêmement organisée, dont l'apport à l'histoire de l'humanité fut essentiel. Tandis que se succèdent les dynasties, nous voyons évoluer une religion complexe, dominée par la figure d'un dieu-roi dont les sujets se consacrèrent, génération après génération, à l'édification de monuments sacrés. Nous visitons Memphis et Thèbes, Karnak et Louqsor, assistons aux coûteux rituels glorifiant Isis, Osiris ou ces pharaons immortels pour qui furent bâties des cités de mausolées. Dans le même temps, se dévoile la vie quotidienne du petit peuple, gouvernée par les rythmes immuables du Nil et de ses saisons. Et à mesure que se déroule l'épopée, nous rencontrons également les aventuriers, les archéologues et les savants qui en ont assemblé les fragments, de Jean-François Champollion, décodant la pierre de Rosette, à Howard Carter, ébloui par la splendeur longtemps ensevelie de la tombe de Toutankhamon. Captivante et informative, ponctuée de chronologies et de cartes, L'Egypte des pharaons nous invite à une extraordinaire exploration du passé.‎

‎Vehbi Koç Foundation / Sadberk Hanim Museum. 2011. Paperback. Very Good. Minor creasing to 1 corner and to top edge of rear wrap. Minor shelfwear.; The "Images in Terracotta" exhibition being held on 18 November 2011-15 April 2012 consists of Greek and Roman period terracotta figurines in the Vehbi Koc Foundation Sadberk Hanim Museum. Production of figurines can be traced back to prehistoric times when people began to depict sacred entities or figures they held in regard. These were made of diverse materials depending on the period and region. In antiquity the preferred material was terracotta. The earliest examples were shaped by hand but in later centuries moulding techniques were introduced and mass production began. The terracotta figurines dating from Greek and Roman periods that are the subject of this exhibition were principally used as votive offerings or grave gifts as demonstrated both by ancient written sources and archaeological excavations. Figurines representing gods and goddesses predominate among those with sacred significance. In addition the exhibition includes figurines that reflect daily life in antiquity such as mothers nursing their babies or sewing.; 232 pages . 9756959541 .
