Millar Fergus
THE ROMAN NEAR EAST 31 BC - AD 337
Harvard University Press. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 1993. Hardcover. 0674778855 . Dustjacket has very minor shelfwear ; Carl Newell Jackson Lectures; 9.5 x 1.5 x 6.75 Inches; 624 pages; From Augustus to Constantine the Roman Empire in the Near East expanded step by step southward to the Red Sea and eastward across the Euphrates to the Tigris. In a remarkable work of interpretive history Fergus Millar shows us this world as it was forged into the Roman provinces of Syria Judaea Arabia and Mesopotamia. His book conveys the magnificent sweep of history as well as the rich diversity of peoples religions and languages that intermingle in the Roman Near East. Against this complex backdrop Millar explores questions of cultural and religious identity and ethnicity--as aspects of daily life in the classical world and as part of the larger issues they raise. As Millar traces the advance of Roman control he gives a lucid picture of Rome's policies and governance over its far-flung empire. He introduces us to major regions of the area and their contrasting communities bringing out the different strands of culture communal identity language and religious belief in each. The Roman Near East makes it possible to see rabbinic Judaism early Christianity and eventually the origins of Islam against the matrix of societies in which they were formed. Millar's evidence permits us to assess whether the Near East is best seen as a regional variant of Graeco-Roman culture or as in some true sense oriental. A masterful treatment of a complex period and world distilling a vast amount of literary documentary artistic and archaeological evidence--always reflecting new findings--this book is sure to become the standard source for anyone interested in the Roman Empire or the history of the Near East. .

Wiseman, T. P.
UNWRITTEN ROME
University of Exeter Press. Very Good. 2008. Paperback. 0859898237 . Very minor shelfwear. Light creasing to upper corner of rear wrap. ; In Unwritten Rome a new book by the author of Myths of Rome T. P. Wiseman presents us with an imaginative and appealing picture of the early society of pre-literary Rome-as a free and uninhibited world in which the arts and popular entertainments flourished. This original angle allows the voice of the Roman people to be retrieved empathetically from contemporary artefacts and figured monuments and from selected passages of later literature. How do you understand a society that didn't write down its own history That is the problem with early Rome from the Bronze Age down to the conquest of Italy around 300 BC. The texts we have to use were all written centuries later and their view of early Rome is impossibly anachronistic. But some possibly authentic evidence may survive if we can only tease it out - like the old story of a Roman king acting as a magician or the traditional custom that may originate in the practice of ritual prostitution. This book consists of eighteen attempts to find such ma; 376 pages . University of Exeter Press paperback

POMPEII AD 79 The Treasure of Rediscovery

DJ has a few tears rubbing and chipping ; An Official Publication of the American Museum of Natural History New York; Folio 13" - 23" tall; 305 pages; Oversized. This is the story of man's restoration of Pompeii to the world from the earliest excavations to the most recent soundings. Each step of the archaeological history brought about a clearer picture of life as it was. The discoveries also had their impact on the times -- "Pompeian fever" swept 18th and 19th century Europe. This is also the story of the men who dominated the digs -- the initial probings of Prince d'Elbeuf the adventures -- amorous and otherwise -- of the Hamiltons and of the dedicated Italians such as Fiorelli and Spinazzola who eventually brought systematic order to the digs. As a pictorial reinforcement to the text the book presents a display of views and overviews reconstructions and artistic interpretations line drawings and etchings engravings vintage photography and contemporary photographs. .

HADRIAN Empire and Conflict
Harvard University Press. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 2008. Hardcover. 0674030958 . Very minor shelfwear to book. DJ has light edgewear. ; Even in the panoply of Roman history Hadrian stands out. Emperor from 117 to 138 ad he was at once a benevolent ruler and a ruthless military leader known for his restless and ambitious nature his interest in architecture and his passion for Greek culture. This book moves beyond the familiar image of Hadrian to offer a new appraisal of this Emperors contradictory personality his exploits and accomplishments his rule and his military role against the backdrop of his twenty-one-year reign. Lavishly illustrated with key works of art and objects celebrated and little-known sculptures bronzes coins and medals drawings and watercolors from museums around the globe the book conveys a vivid sense of the world Hadrian inhabited. Thorsten Opper shows the emperor from many anglesas a complex individual as a military leader and strategist as the amateur architect who created magnificent buildings such as his villa at Tivoli an empire in miniature as the lover who deified his male lover Antinous after his mysterious death in the Nile and finally as the traveler who tirelessly roamed his empire and its boundaries. From his place in Roman history to his legacy which even makes its way into the popular culture of our day the Hadrian who emerges from these pages is no longer larger than life; rather he has all the depth and complexity the color and shadings and detail of life itself. ; 9.5 X 1.25 X 11.75 inches; 224 pages .

Roman Britains most notable characteristicat least in the eyes of the Romanswas that not only was it the most remote province but it was also the most recalcitrant. The rebels of Roman Britain came in many forms from most famously Boudica and Caratacus who wanted the Romans out to Allectus and Carausius whose rebellions were inspired by gaining power within the empire. Weaving together archaeology and contemporary documents and literature Guy de la Bédoyère reveals why Britain was such a hotbed of dissent under Roman rule. ; 224 pages . Tempus Publishing hardcover

Dyson, Stephen L.
ROME A Living Portrait of an Ancient City
Johns Hopkins University Press. Very Good with no dust jacket. 2010. Hardcover. 0801892538 . Minor shelfwear to book. ; Stephen L. Dyson has spent a lifetime studying and teaching the history of ancient Rome. That unparalleled knowledge is reflected in his magisterial overview of the Eternal City. Rather than look only at the physical development of the city-its buildings monuments and urban spaces-Dyson also explores its social economic and cultural histories. This unique approach situates Rome against a background of comparative urban history and theory allowing Dyson to examine the dynamic society that once thrived there. In his personal effort to reconstruct the city Dyson populates its streets with the hurried politicians hawking vendors and animated students that once lived worked and studied there bringing the ancient city to life for a new generation of students and tourists. Dyson follows Rome as it developed between the third century BC and the fourth century AD dividing the great megalopolis into distinct neighborhoods and locales. He shows how these communities each with its own unique customs and colorful inhabitants eventually grew into the great imperial capital of the Italian Empire. Dyson integrates the full range of sources available-literary artistic epigraphic and archaeological-to create a comprehensive history of the monumental city. In doing so he offers a dramatic picture of a complex and changing urban center that despite its flaws flourished for centuries.; Ancient Society And History; 6 X 1.39 X 9 inches; 488 pages .
