A Study of the Circulation of Ceramics in Cyprus from the 3rd Century BC to the 3rd Century Ad
ISBN: 9788771244502 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 390 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This is the first monograph devoted solely to the ceramics of Cyprus in the Hellenistic and Roman Periods. The island was by then no longer divided into kingdoms but unified politically, first under Ptolemaic Egypt and later as a province in the Roman Empire. Submission to foreign rule was previously thought to have diluted - if not obliterated - the time-honoured distinctive Cypriot character. The ceramic evidence suggests otherwise. The distribution of local and imported pottery in Cyprus points to the existence of several regional exchange networks, a division that also seems reflected by...

Eating with Veterans
ISBN: 9781596301009 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Only when I had finished a good draft of most of these stories did I realize the characters were often seen eating--eating and talking. I realized then that this was no accident, as most of these characters are aging veterans who look for places to voice their thoughts. And throughout all ages and in all cultures, sharing a meal allows us to put into words what we have experienced. When wine is added, of course, tongues are even looser. In these pages, then, sometimes older vets eat with younger ones; on other occasions they share a table with civilians; a few times they are a group by...
