2008Creasing to upper corner of front wrap. Laminate lifting along lower edge. Crease to spine. Minor shelfwear. ; L’histoire de Délos à l’époque classique est indissociable de celle d’Athènes : depuis la fondation de la Ligue de Délos en 478, les Athéniens sont les administrateurs du sanctuaire d’Apollon délien et, si la cité de Délos se maintient au cours des Ve et IVe siècles, ce n’est que dans l’orbite d’Athènes qu’elle peut exister. L’histoire de Délos classique se laisse essentiellement appréhender par les inscriptions et plus particulièrement les actes administratifs athéniens du sanctuaire d’Apollon délien. Convergeant avec les sources littéraires et archéologiques, ces textes épigraphiques permettent de définir précisément le statut de l’île de Délos, mais également de mettre en évidence la progressive élaboration, par l’autorité athénienne, d’un système administratif, financier et économique qui, parallèlement à la construction idéologique et religieuse élaborée par Athènes dans le cadre de sa politique impérialiste, rend compte des innovations introduites en Égée au cours de la période classique. ; Bibliothèque Des Écoles Française D'Athènes Et De Rome.

2007Minor creasing to wraps. ; 2 vol. (XXI-282 p. , 112 pp of pl. + 15 p. -[1] foldout ) La présente étude comporte une analyse des vestiges architecturaux du théâtre de Délos, une nouvelle publication des passages des comptes des gestionnaires de la caisse sacrée concernant sa construction et son entretien, enfin une synthèse sur les concours qui y étaient célébrés. Elle permet de restituer l’évolution du projet et les étapes du chantier entre la fin du ive siècle et les environs de 240 avant J. -C. , de préciser les modes de mise en scène des spectacles à l’époque hellénistique. Elle conduit aussi à cerner la place du monument dans l’architecture et l’urbanisme déliens. Le théâtre de Délos, qui associe des gradins en demi-cercles outrepassés et un bâtiment de scène à proskènion et skènè avec un étage à front percé de larges baies, est tributaire des édifices réalisés à Athènes puis à Épidaure. Certains de ses dispositifs se rencontrent uniquement dans les Cyclades, à Cos et sur une courte frange de la côte occidentale de l’Asie Mineure. ; Exploration Archéologique De Délos. XLII
1991Light Foxing to DJ flaps and textblock. Else very minor shelfwear. Book in plastic sleeve. DJ a bit yellowed. ; This collection of nineteen essays delves into themes such as: death, the body, the soul, the individual, and relations between mortals and immortals; the mask, the mirror, the image, and the imagination; the self and the other, and the concept of otherness itself, or "alterity." "Vernant's work ranges across the entire field of ancient Greek religion, philosophy, and literature and joins exacting philological scholarship to exciting and innovative theoretical paradigms. Not since Jane Harrison and Gilbert Murray has a classicist commanded the attention of non-classicists in the way Vernant has over the last twenty-five years." --Choice; 352 pages

1996Book in plastic sleeve. Light Foxing/dustsoiling to book and DJ. Else very minor shelfwear. ; 1.25 x 10 x 6.75 Inches; 288 pages; In recent years, the topic of ancient Greek hero cult has been the focus of considerable discussion among classicists. Little attention, however, has been paid to female heroized figures. Here Deborah Lyons argues for the heroine as a distinct category in ancient Greek religious ideology and daily practice. The heroine, she believes, must be located within a network of relations between male and female, mortal and immortal. Using evidence ranging from Homeric epic to Attic vase painting to ancient travel writing, she attempts to re-integrate the feminine into our picture of Greek notions of the hero. According to Lyons, heroines differ from male heroes in several crucial ways, among which is the ability to cross the boundaries between mortal and immortal. She further shows that attention to heroines clarifies fundamental Greek ideas of mortal/immortal relationships. The book first discusses heroines both in relation to heroes and as a separate religious and mythic phenomenon. It examines the cultural meanings of heroines in ritual and representation, their use as examples for mortals, and their typical "biographies." The model of "ritual antagonism," in which two mythic figures represented as hostile share a cult, is ultimately modified through an exploration of the mythic correspondences between the god Dionysos and the heroines surrounding him, and through a rethinking of the relationship between Iphigeneia and Artemis. An appendix, which identifies more than five hundred heroines, rounds out this lively work.
2000Light Foxing to textblock. ; Despite the rousing stories of male heroism in battles, the Trojan War transcended the activities of its human participants. For Homer, it was the gods who conducted and accounted for what happened. In the first part of this book, the authors find in Homer s Iliad material for exploring the everyday life of the Greek gods: what their bodies were made of and how they were nourished, the organization of their society, and the sort of life they led both in Olympus and in the human world. The gods are divided in their human nature: at once a fantasized model of infinite joys and an edifying example of engagement in the world, they have loves, festivities, and quarrels. In the second part, the authors show how citizens carried on everyday relations with the gods and those who would become the Olympians, inviting them to reside with humans organized in cities. At the heart of rituals and of social life, the gods were omnipresent: in sacrifices, at meals, in political assemblies, in war, in sexuality. In brief, the authors show how the gods were indispensable to the everyday social organization of Greek cities. ; Mestizo Spaces; 0.71 x 8.5 x 5.56 Inches; 287 pages

2009Very faint shelfwear. ; In this account, Alexandra Richardson reveals (as she says in her introduction) her quest to get to know a ‘remarkable man who wholly dedicated his later life and finances to restoring and excavating what is surely one of the finest classical Greek sites in the Western Mediterranean. I rapidly began to be drawn in to the sketchy, sometimes speculative, details surrounding the remarkable Captain Hardcastle…I thought back to his unlit villa beside the theatrically shining temples, and the more I got to know the man, the more it seemed entirely in keeping with his personality that his former home should still be not be sharing the spotlight with the great monuments he was so intimately involved with. He remained a mysterious and private person who kept his own counsel throughout life. I was to discover that he wrote very few letters home to his family from the Far East, South Africa, Italy. And when he did write to the chosen few, I had to learn to read between the lines. Luckily his own family wrote to one another making mention of him…With so little to go on, it was just the sort of challenge that a researcher relishes. The Anglo-Italian theme was yet another appeal, my instinctive habitat. No full-scale biography had ever been written about him and thus I was not stepping on any toes. I had the field all to myself, piecing together a profile from many sources, set largely in a period of modern Sicilian history, the 1920s and early ‘30s rarely “popularised” by foreign writers. That was all how the four-year journey began...’ 'This book is the labour of years of research and scholarship. In Alexandra Richardson's book, the personality of Alexander Hardcastle comes to life in all its many facets. Her detailed account of the history of Agrigento is historically correct and written in a fluid style. Her descriptions of Sicily are accurate and lyrical, her cameos of Sicilians witty and a pleasure to read. Richardson's rigorous research describes his painful and determined iter from London to Girgenti, his stubborness and his resilience.' - Simonetta Agnello Hornby, 'The Almond Picker' ; Archaeological Lives; 9.5 X 6.6 X 0.3 inches; 143 pages
