1963The setting is the Greek island of Rhodes, to which Dorcas Brandt flees in hope of escaping the strange incidents that have beset her since the death of her husband, Gino, in an airplane crash. She suspects that those who worked with Gino in his mysterious and illicit art dealings believe her to possess some knowledge which they must acquire at all costs. In Rhodes, with its ancient Greek ruins and medieval fortresses, Dorcas feels that she and her small daughter will surely find safety. Her hopes are frustrated, for on the island singular happenings dog her steps. The strange woman who comes to care for the child watches Dorcas with hostile eyes. Marks of warning are scrawled on a balcony. The symbol of an owl surprises her in circumstances that terrify. The promise of new love is threatened. As imminent danger to the little girl becomes apparent, Dorcas's very sanity seems to hang in the balance. On the acropolis of Lindos, where sheer cliffs plunge to the Aegean, the unknown comes into the open, and the forces of good and evil are meshed in final dramatic struggle.Fine except for remainder maek Book
1991Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing. ; In this innovative study, James Whitley examines the relationship between the development of pot style and social changes in the Dark Age of Greece (1100-700 BC). He focuses on Athens where the Protogeometric and Geometric styles first appeared. He considers pot shape and painted decoration primarily in relation to the other relevant features - metal artefacts, grave architecture, funerary rites, and the age and sex of the deceased - and also takes into account different contexts in which these shapes and decorations appear. A computer analysis of grave assemblages supports his view that pot style is an integral part of the collective representations of Early Athenian society. It is a lens through which we can focus on the changing social circumstances of Dark Age Greece. Dr Whitley's approach to the study of style challenges many of the assumptions which have underpinned more traditional studies of Early Greek art. ; New Studies in Archaeology; 10.25 x 1 x 7.5 Inches; 245 pages

1682In -4°, pp. (14), 4 tavv., 483, b, cb., numerose illustrazioni nel testo e 1 tav. ripiegata ft che raduna tre illustrazioni da separare e inserire (a cura del legatore) nelle pagine di riferimento. Manca la carta del viaggio ripiegata. Mezza pelle e carta marmorizzata. Nel testo le incisioni sono di carattere botanico, storico, artistico, zoologico e topografico. Il libro di Wheler, per molti anni, rimase l’opera inglese di riferimento per i viaggi in Grecia, sebbene curiosamente non sia mai stato ristampato. The folding map is missing, for the rest a nice copy of this book that was for years the english reference guide for travellers to Greece.
