1998rif. 35340Princeton University Press. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. Hardcover. Book is fine. DJ has very minor shelfwear.; Explores the nature of the Greek household "oikos" in classical Athens. Whereas the "oikos" traditionally has been defined as the household of the nuclear family in Greece this text argues that it had a more fluid structure taking care to distinguish between the concepts of "household" and "family". The legal basis of the typical elite household emerges in the description of marriage patterns or strategies among the families represented in Attic orations and funeral inscriptions. Property interests were a strong motivating force with the elite marrying within their kin primariliy thorugh paternal lines in which property was transferred. The author argues that the household was not limited to "family" or kinspeople. Friends neighbours concubines or prostitutes and slaves also shared in property interests and all could have a profound influence on the household.; 253 pages . 1998. 0691015724 .

2015rif. 35310Oxbow Books. Very Good with no dust jacket. Hardcover. Slight waviness to endpapers.; This is an exciting time to study in Athens. The “rescue” excavations of recent years conducted during construction of the Metro system and in preparation for the 2004 Olympic Games combined with major restoration projects and a new enthusiasm for fresh examination of old material using new techniques and applications brings new perspectives and answers on many aspects of the ancient city of Athens and life politics and religion in Attica. The 15 papers presented here contribute new findings that result from intensive first-hand examinations of the archaeological and epigraphical evidence. They illustrate how much may be gained by re-examining material from older excavations and from the methodological shift from documenting information to closer analysis and larger historical reflection. They offer a variety of perspectives on a range of issues: the ambience of the ancient city for passers-by filled with roadside shrines; techniques of architectural construction and sculpting; religious expression in Athens including cults of Asklepios and Serapis; the precise procedures for Greek sacrifice; how the borders of Attica were defined over time and details of its road-system. In presenting this volume the contributors are continuing in a long tradition of autopsy – in the sense of 'personal observation' – in Athens that began even in the Hellenistic period and has continued through the writings of centuries of travellers and academics to the present day.; 11.3 X 8.8 X 0.7 inches; 224 pages . 2015. 1782978569 .

2001rif. 43615Cambridge University Press. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. Hardcover. Includes cd-rom; 4to 11" - 13" tall; 316 pages; While the sculpted Ionic frieze of the Parthenon with its galloping horsemen and classically portrayed gods is reproduced in every art history text and has been much studied by scholars no single book has yet been devoted to all its myriad aspects. This study by classical archaeologist and art historian Jenifer Neils breaks new ground by considering all aspects of this complex and controversial monument. Although the frieze has been studied for over two hundred years most scholarship has sought an overall interpretation of the iconography rather than focusing on the sculpture's visual language essential for a full understanding of the narrative. Neils' study not only decodes the language of the frieze but also analyzes its conception and design style and content as well as its impact on later art. Unusual for its wide-ranging approach to the frieze this book also brings ethical reasoning to bear on the issue of its possible repatriation as part of the on-going Elgin Marble debate. As one of the foremost examples of the high classical style and the finest expression of mid-fifth century Athenian ideology the Parthenon frieze is without doubt one of the major monuments of western civilization and as such deserves to be understood in all its dimensions. The accompanying CD-ROM contains a virtual reality Macromedia Director movie of the complete frieze based on the plaster casts in the Skulpturhalle in Basel Switzerland. Developed by Rachel Rosenzweig of the Department of Greek and Roman Art of the Cleveland Museum of Art the casts are arranged in conformity with Neils' reconstruction and enable the user to view them in succession as if walking around the Parthenon. The CD-ROM requires a computer running either MAC OS 8.01 or later or Windows 95 or later. . 2001. 0521641616 . Cambridge University Press hardcover

Dustjacket is protected in mylar.; Between 279 and 229 B. C. the Aitolian koinon a federation of mountain cantons in west central Greece expanded to incorporate many of the neighboring lands and peoples lying between the Adriatic and Aegean Seas. This new political configuration contributed to the development of modern systems of federal democracy based on proportional representation. Despite these institutional advances the Aitolians and their polity are reviled in the ancient historical tradition which views them as backward semi-barbarous brigands. The Politics of Plunder is the first English-language book in over a century to examine the political history of the Aitolian koinon in its era of expansion. Joseph Scholten presents a chronological reconstruction of the koinon's course of expansion synthesizing a number of recent studies covering Aitolian topography epigraphy and institutional development that help to compensate for deficiencies in the ancient narrative record. His study is the first to ask how a people and a polity so detested by their contemporaries succeeded in making such fundamental contributions to their regional political culture. Scholten's careful investigation charts a middle course that neither whitewashes the Aitolians nor credulously accepts the biased ancient tradition. This balanced approach provides a much-needed fresh perspective on the Aitolians and their koinon. Discussing the history of the ancient Aegean Greek world and the political economic and social history of the Hellenistic Era this book will interest anyone concerned with those subjects or fascinated by the development of ancient Greek political institutions and theories particularly federalism.; Hellenistic Culture and Society; 2.72 x 9.31 x 7.94 Inches; 339 pages . 2000. 0520201876 .
