Die Frauen im Gefolge des Dionysos: auf den attischen Vasenbildern des 6. und 5. Jhs. v. Chr. als Spiegel des weiblichen Idealbildes
ISBN: 9781841713915 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 2004 / 186 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This study of the women around Dionysus' analyses a corpus of 1244 vases, including both red and black figure Attic vase paintings, dating from c.580-420 BC. The painted scenes are studied in terms of their visual features, and are subjected to statistical evaluation, with both of these then compared to historical and literary evidence. What Gerlin de Fahlbusch reveals is that ecstatic and chaotic scenes of maenads displaying excessive uncontrolled behaviour are in the minority, behaviour which is more often focused on Silenus rather than Dionysus. The Dionysiac women featured on the vases...

Ethnic Boundaries in Neolithic Norway
ISBN: 9781841719832 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 286 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. During the transition to the early Neolithic, a number of changes took place among the hunter-fishers of southern Norway.

In this study, the main theme is the investigation of whether such ethnic boundaries can be delineated. The author identifies them archaeologically, and discusses how and why they were established and maintained.
