Light shelfwear.; 408 pages; The past 20 years have witnessed a revival of interest in the study of Sparta. The early 20th-century images of Spartans as hearty good fellows or scarlet-cloaked automata have been superceded by more complex scholarly interpretations of this obscure civilization. The mystery surrounding Sparta has been instrumental in shaping scholarship on the subject. Historians have taken as much interest in the myths and disinformation attached to Sparta as they have in the truth about their city-state. The studies in this volume provide insights into the traditional question of what actually happened at Sparta.

2008réf. 148557Bilingual greek-english OR greek-french edition; hard cover 25X23 cm 180 pp. ill. Thanks to the variety of shapes and decorated surfaces found in vases the art of pottery developed a more extensive repertoire of subjects related to the sea than any other art form. The forty-two characteristic examples of marine iconography included in this catalogue come mainly from the collections of the Louvre though also from those of other museums. They are divided into four groups: marine fauna and seafaring the deities of the deep the voyages of gods and heroes who crisscrossed the ocean and finally the miraculous birth of the goddess who emerged from the waves Aphrodite born from the foam. The variety and aesthetic quality of marine scenes in vase-painting reveal once more the importance of the sea to Greek civilization. ============================================================== IMPORTANT: The shipping cost estimated by the system covers books weighing up to 750 gr.; a surcharge depending on the actual weight and destination applies for heavier books.
