8vo; br., ed. sovracop. in astuccio pp. 280, cm 16x23. (Le strenne). Negli studi e nell'insegnamento della Storia romana, non viene solitamente attribuita una particolare attenzione alla parte religiosa, limitandosi soprattutto a ricercare ed esporre gli eventi quali guerre e conquiste, mutamenti di governo, lotte e discordie intestine, usi e costumi in genere. Tuttavia, feste e ricorrenze accompagnavano costantemente la vita quotidiana nell'Antica Roma, e ne scandivano i ritmi di vita in una maniera molto rilevante, esprimendosi in riti religiosi e in manifestazioni sociali. Il calendario romano era costellato di tali ricorrenze festive, religiose e civili, e la vita della città si svolgeva in funzione di tali eventi. L'anno era diviso in mesi, che prima della riforma di Numa Pompilio erano solo dieci, e iniziavano da marzo. Ulteriori ritocchi vennero apportati da Giulio Cesare, che lo rese molto simile a quello odierno. Ciascun mese era a sua volta composto di tre serie di giorni: le Calende, le None e le Idi. I giorni, infine, si distinguevano in festi (festivi) e profesti (feriali), e inoltre in fasti, nefasti e intercisi, e avevano anche altre suddivisioni minori. A differenza di altre opere dedicate allo stesso argomento, questo libro vuol costituire uno studio complessivo sulla vita di Roma antica, non considerando le diverse feste e ricorrenza in maniera isolata, ma esaminando come esse costituiscano tante manifestazioni di un unico concetto e si colleghino alla storia civile della città. L'opera ci permette di osservare il fluire della vita stessa nell'antica Roma ed è un testo documentario di rara precisione filologica e storica, contenendo i risultati di accurate ricerche sul calendario romano, sulla religione e sulla divinità, nonché sugli usi e costumi dell'antica Roma.

2013Classical Spies is the first insiders account of the operations of the American intelligence service in World War II Greece. Initiated by archaeologists in Greece and the eastern Mediterranean, the network drew on scholars personal contacts and knowledge of languages and terrain. While modern readers might think Indiana Jones is just a fantasy character, Classical Spies discloses events where even Indy would feel at home: burying Athenian dig records in an Egyptian tomb, activating prep-school connections to establish spies code-named Vulture and Chickadee, and organizing parachute drops.Susan Heuck Allen reveals remarkable details about a remarkable group of individuals. Often mistaken for mild-mannered professors and scholars, such archaeologists as University of Pennsylvanias Rodney Young, Cincinnatis Jack Caskey and Carl Blegen, Yales Jerry Sperling and Dorothy Cox, and Bryn Mawrs Virginia Grace proved their mettle as effective spies in an intriguing game of cat and mouse with their Nazi counterparts. Relying on interviews with individuals sharing their stories for the first time, previously unpublished secret documents, private diaries and letters, and personal photographs, Classical Spies offers an exciting and personal perspective on the history of World War II. 420p.bibliography.index.
