THE SANCTUARY OF HEMITHEA AT KASTABOS

1966ref. 4181Cambridge University Press. Fine in Very Good dust jacket. Hardcover. DJ is price-clipped. Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing.; 23pp of photos 78 figures. "This is an account of the excavation of a Greek sanctuary in the south-west corner of the mainland of Asia Minor opposite Rhodes--once known as the Carian Chersonese. The excavations took place in 1959-1960. This is the first Greek temple of any size uncovered in that part of Asia Minor and the discovery of the site of Kastabos whose existence was known from book V of Diodorus' world history has entailed the re-siting of several ancient towns in the region. The sanctuary itself whose main buildings date from c. 300 B. C. was dedicated to the Goddess Hemithea. It adds to our knowledge of a special sort of Greek shrine which was popular in the early Hellenistic age and is a perfect instance of a religious gathering place designed for a short well attended festival. The excavations show that although it was an Ionic temple the style of the great contemporary temples in Ionia such as that at Ephesus has been modified and the design is somewhat similar in plan and proportion to that of the temple of Epidaurus. In particular the discovery of a decorative screen with little shrines round the temple area throws new light on Greek architectural complexes."; 180 pages . 1966.

Very faint shelfwear to book else fine.; This book deals specifically with sixteenth-century depictions of the Olympian deities the twelve supreme deities of ancient Greece and Rome. As the Renaissance revived several aspects of antiquity some great works of art represented the Olympians in imitation of the classical style. These deities were rendered as autonomous figures in the form of representation adapted for depicting saints and Christian rulers. This form of depicting the Olympians or the pagan gods was not unanimously accepted by sixteenth-century viewers. The book highlights the problematic framework surrounding the creation display and acceptance of such thought-provoking works of art.; 9.7 X 7.2 X 1.0 inches; 318 pages . 2003. 0521815762 .

Bound in ruby silk the star of Babalon in gold gilt edges scarlet ribbon textured black endpapers translucent scarlet dust jacket and lined slipcase. Fine condition. Beautiful deluxe edition from Scarlet Imprint. From the publisher: The Red Goddess is an ecstatic journey through the history of Babalon the goddess of Revelation a provocative vision of a very modern goddess coming into power. From the Revelation of St John the Divine back through the Ishtar Gate and forward into a living modern magical current. This is more than a history it is a passionate account of living magic and the transcendent power of Love. The text takes us from Babylon to Jerusalem to Rome and onwards to Apocalypse. It confronts us with the language and symbols of our own culture and the denied demonised divine feminine. It looks at the angelic work of John Dee and places it in a European eschatology. It delivers a devastating exegesis on the excesses of Aleister Crowley and unlocks the secrets of ‘Waratah Blossoms.’ It explains the immolation of the Californian antichrist-superstar Jack Parsons and his relationship with Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard. There is also a full supporting cast of Solomon Simon Magus St John the Divine Earl Bothwell the Templars Mary the Magdalene and countless others. This is the missing history of the love goddess in the West. Thirteen essays conclude the book on subjects including: roses mirror magick bdsm aphrodisiac drugs the information age love and lust and the meaning of apocalypse. The Red Goddess is for anyone with blood in their veins regardless of tradition background or experience. . Scarlet Imprint unknown
