Grandazzi, Alexandre
ALBA LONGA, HISTOIRE D'UNE LÉGENDE Recherches Sur L'Archéologie, La Religion, Les Traditions De L'Ancien Latium
2 volume set. Light bumping to extremities else Fine. ; Alba Longa et sa légende demeurent pour la science une énigme : alors qu’elle explore les origines de Rome avec une intensité sans précédent, elle ne sait que penser de cette ville introuvable, de ce lac débordant, de ces forêts ombreuses, de ces rois fantômes. Quel rôle jouèrent les monts Albains dans la culture latiale ? A-t-on eu raison, depuis plus de cinq siècles, de chercher inlassablement Albe, cette cité d’où seraient venus les jumeaux fondateurs de Rome ? Quelles furent les relations entre ce territoire albain et Rome, entre la Ligue latine et la Ville ? Géographie historique et culturelle, sciences de la terre, archéologie, histoire des religions, philologie : le recours à un très large éventail de disciplines aboutit ici à une synthèse, d’où le souci de la réflexivité épistémologique n’est jamais absent. Pour comprendre le légendaire albain, il fallait le replacer dans son cadre. Les anciennes fouilles du XIXe siècle sont donc restituées dans leur contexte. Au-delà de ce qui a été conservé, émerge un continent perdu de la connaissance : des paysages disparus, des sites oubliés, des textes négligés, des rites méconnus et, avec eux, toute la richesse d’une véritable civilisation : en retour on comprendra mieux l’apport des plus récentes découvertes dans ce Latium préromain dont le massif Albain constituait précisément le centre. C’est là, sur le mons Albanus, moderne Monte Cavo, que les Anciens plaçaient Alba Longa et ses rois ; c’est là aussi qu’ avait lieu une grandiose cérémonie religieuse, les Féries Latines, délaissées pourtant par la recherche moderne qui n’a su où situer les mystérieux sacra Albana. Des inventaires précis, des dossiers rassemblant les textes antiques concernés, donnés à chaque fois avec leur traduction, permettent de redonner à ces thèmes toute leur importance, et font de ce livre un exceptionnel outil de travail : la première synthèse française sur cet ancien Latium, naguère dit primitif, objet, depuis trois décennies, d’un grand mouvement international de recherche. Mémoire ou histoire ? À cette interrogation, aujourd’hui omniprésente, ce livre apporte une réponse qui constitue une contribution novatrice au débat actuel sur les origines de Rome. ; 2 Volume Set COMPLETE. B.E.F.A.R. 365; 988 pages

GREENE Dorothy
Roman Yorkshire. The Ricknild Street [The Route across Brinsworth Common, near Rotherham]. AUTHOR'S PRESENTATION COPY WITH T.L.s TO I D MARGARY

A PRESENTATION COPY FROM THE AUTHOR TO I MD MARGARY WITH A T.L.S FROM THE FORMER ADDRESSED TO MARGARY AT YEW LODGE. The letter, painfully respectful in tone, brings to Margary's attention Greene's mapping of Ricknild to the south of Templebrough Fort and asks whether this information might be considered in the 'grand old man's' revision of Codrington [which revision became his magnum opus 'Roman Roads in Britain']. Reprinted from the 'Yorkshire Archaeological Journal', part 149. Ivan Donald Margary (1896-1976) was the twentieth century's leading authority on Roman roads in Britain, devising a structured numbering system to ease identification. Among his many studies are 'Roman Ways of the Weald' (1948) and the definitive 'Roman Roads in Britain (2 vols., 1955-57). Bonser 2383.
