1994réf. 6238Institute for Mediterranean Studies: Halcyon Days in Crete I - A Symposium held in Rethymnon 11-13 January 1991. Soft cover 24 cm 244 pp. The conversion of a small emirate in the powerful Ottoman Empire which succeeded that of Byzantium and was in close contact with the western world for many centuries is a phenomenon with multiple interpretations. The theories of the great historian Kuprulu and Wittek formed both in the 1930's have recently changed. Recent discoveries and studies have caused numerous debates with new arguments and gave additional explanations. The dervish role becomes more important than was thought and the discovery of coins casts new light on the humble beginnings of Turk emirs of the 14th century while the archival material clarified many of the newer institutions of the Ottoman Empire.

This innovative fresh look on Greek painting combines a standard comprehensive survey of the material record wall-paintings painted panels or slabs with an in-depth exploration of the ways in which the Greeks themselves appreciated this demanding art. The book dwells on techniques styles themes and masters as well as their admirers clients and critics. At the same time the author discusses recent breakthroughs in archaeology cultural studies and art history in order to offer a well-rounded picture of a unique phenomenon in Greek culture a celebrated art that enjoyed a long afterlife. In this respect this book is unique in its kind as it reflects new multidisciplinary scholarly approaches to the material record which it combines with a more traditional art-historical exploration. Drawing on a wide range of ancient authorities from Plato and Xenophon to Cicero Pliny Lucian and Philostratus the author discusses the surviving works within their chronological framework and under the light of recent discoveries. After a wide-ranging discussion of painting in Bronze-Age Greece Cyclades Crete Santorini Mycenaean Greece the book establishes a highly readable narrative of all technical stylistic iconographical and aesthetic developments through the Archaic the Classical and the Hellenistic period before it culminates with the study of Graeco-Roman painting in the 2nd-3rd ce. AD. The study thus covers all significant milestones in the development of Greek painting from the prehistoric through to the Roman era as well as most surviving works including many lesser known or recently discovered ones; it also pays tribute to the oeuvre and individual contributions of most great masters of antiquity. The book's introduction offers a thorough account of the techniques and materials employed in ancient painting alongside contemporary technical scientific and theoretical approaches to its study. The text is fully illustrated in color and accompanied by an extensive bibliography and index. Kapon paperback
