2001Includes memorial guide for Barletta tipped in. Scholar's name to ffep (Jenifer Neils). Else book is fine. ; Much of our understanding of the origins and early development of the Greek architectural order is based on the writings of ancient authors, such as Virtruvius, and those of modern interpreters. Traditionally, the archaeological evidence has been viewed secondarily and often made to fit within a literary context, despite contradictions that occur. Barbara Barletta's study examines both forms of evidence in an effort to reconcile the two sources, as well as to offer a coherent reconstruction of the origins and early development of the Greek architectural orders. Beginning with the pre-canonical material, she demonstrates that the relatively late emergence of the Doric and Ionic orders arose from contributions of separate regions of the Greek world, rather than a single center. Barletta's reinterpretations of the evidence also assigns greater importance to the often overlooked contributions of Western Greece and the Cycladic Islands. ; 11.3 X 6.9 X 0.8 inches; 232 pages

2010Long Scratch to front panel of DJ (about 5-6 cm) else no other faults. ; Corinth Volume XVIII.5; 315 pages; The fifth part of the Corinth volume dedicated to the Sanctuary of Demeter and Kore publishes the large-scale terracotta sculpture found in the sanctuary. Ranging in date from the late 7th through the 4th century B.C., the sculpture consists of fragments from 132 to as many as 147 statues, from half- to nearly life-size. These are, for the most part, statues of young males, both draped and nude, although females and seated infants appear as well. Several introductory chapters discuss the types represented, the findspots and possible original placement of the sculptures, and the techniques involved in their construction. This volume greatly expands our knowledge of the history of Corinth, broadening our understanding both of cult practices at the site and of the manufacture of terracotta sculpture.

1997Spine slant. Dustjacket spine is sunned. Shelfwear to DJ. Creasing to DJ front flap. DJ has 1 small tear. ; Cambridge Studies in Classical Art and Iconography; 302 pages; The Alexander Mosaic: Stories of Victory and Defeat focuses on one of the richest, most complex and visually stunning monuments of classical antiquity. Contributing to a vast tradition of scholarship, which dates back to the discovery of the Mosaic in 1831, Cohen here engages with, but departs from, a core of positivist assumptions that characterize this body of literature. In this study, she examines the Mosaic as it may have functioned in two different contexts, first as a Greek painting of the fourth century B.C., and then as a Roman mosaic of ca. 100 B.C.

2007Cette publication de référence sur la peinture grecque antique réunit les résultats de la recherche archéologique de ces trente dernières années. La culture occidentale a longtemps vécu dans le mythe d’une peinture grecque antique disparue dont le souvenir seul était transmis par les auteurs anciens et les copies retrouvées dans les villas romaines. Les fouilles menées en Grèce du Nord, au royaume de Philippe II de Macédoine et de son fils Alexandre le Grand, ont révolutionné le savoir. Les tombes de la nécropole royale de Vergina, celles de Mieza, de Pella ou d’Haghios Athanassios ont préservé des œuvres d’une qualité exceptionnelle. Leur mise au jour bouleverse l’histoire même de l’art antique. Il est en effet possible d’identifier aujourd’hui les pigments sélectionnés par les peintres et de préciser les pratiques d’artisans et d’artistes qui utilisaient les propriétés des matériaux pour faire vibrer ou pour atténuer les couleurs, qui obtenaient par mélange ou superposition de tons toute une gamme subtile de nuances et qui savaient même tirer parti de manière empirique du principe de résolution optique en juxtaposant les touches colorées. Ces peintures funéraires permettent de mesurer quelle était la maîtrise, dès la seconde moitié du IVe siècle, du trompe-l’œil, du clair obscur ou des jeux de raccourcis et quels principes étaient alors adoptés pour donner l’illusion de la perspective. Les auteurs, tous d’éminents spécialistes, historiens de l’art, conservateurs, archéologues ou professeurs d’université, garantissent le haut degré de qualité et d’exigence scientifique de cet ouvrage superbement illustré. ; Musée Du Louvre Éditions; 10.9 X 9.4 X 0.8 inches; 240 pages

However, Sultan Abdülmecid I, who is recalled as the pioneer of modernization trends, father of education reforms, as a matter of fact one of the architects of the Imperial Edict of Reorganization, by his education and rearing, has gone down in history as the individual who has taken the first step to abolish slavery. Istanbul had acquired its most beautiful silhouette by the palaces, manors and mosques that were built during the reign of Sultan Abdülmecid. And among these building, there is one mosque that is the pearl of the Bosphorus, which is ascribed as Naks-i Istanbul (Imprint of Istanbul). The Ortaköy Büyük Mecidiye Mosque, built on an embankment towards the sea, is a waterfront mosque that is as beautiful as a princess, and poses as the most favorite Ottoman heritage of the past and the present.

This work, where the detailed information is provided also on the life, personality and reign of Sultan Abdülmecid I by names who are specialized in their fields, has assumed a very important place in literature.".
1991Mnemosyne, Bibliotheca Classica Batava Supplementum 115; 197 pages; Das Thema des Buches ist der Isiskult während der römischen Kaiserzeit, wie er in zahleichen Darstellungen der ägyptischen Göttin und solcher ihr angeglichener Frauen zum Ausdruck kommt. Während sich dadurch zum einen diese Frauen ganz allgemein als Dienerinnen der Isis zu erkennen geben, fällt zum anderen ein besonderes Licht auf die zur Angleichung ausgewählten Bilder der Göttin. Dabei handelt es sich, anders als bei den meisten bekannten Isistypen, um keine mythologisch erklärbaren Gottesbilder. Sie sind deshalb der Forschung ebenso rätselhaft geblieben wie die entsprechend angeglichenen und oftmals auch als Priesterinnen oder Mystinnen bezeichneten Frauen. Das Buch behandelt somit zwei Problemkreise, nämlich die Stellung jener Frauen im Kult sowie die damit verbundene Frage nach Sinn und Bedeutung der für die Angleichung verbindlichen Isisbilder. Das vorwiegend plastische Material ist in einem Katalog mit volständigem Abbildungsteil zusammengestellt. Auf dieser Basis bietet das Buch eine ikonographische und ikonologische Untersuchung des Themas. Die ausschliesslich in statuarischen Kopien überlieferten Isisbilder werden in angemessener Weise auf Originale hin rezensiert; die vorranging sepulkralen Darstellungen der Isisdienerinnen werden sowohl in quellenkritischer als auch archäologischer Hinsicht interpretiert. Daneben kommen auch religionsgeschichtliche Probleme zum Tragen. Ein längeres Exkurs am Ende des Buches ist der Frage nach der sozialen Stellung der Isisdienerinnen gewidmet.
