Persowie. Epoka Wielkich Królów
ISBN: 9788383380445 / Polski / twarda / 2023 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych. Nowa, oparta na perskich źródłach historia imperium Achemenidów. Wielcy Królowie Persji rządzili największym imperium starożytności, rozciągającym się od Libii po stepy Azji i od Sudanu po Pakistan. Sercem ich państwa było legendarne miasto-pałac Persepolis, gdzie achemenidzcy monarchowie utrzymywali pełen niezrównanego przepychu dwór. To stamtąd Cyrus Wielki, Dariusz, Kserkses oraz ich następcy ogłaszali prawa, wysyłali armie i władali swym wielokulturowym imperium. Achemenidzi byli jednak też jednym z wielkich dysfunkcyjnych rodów w dziejach. Bracia bezwzględnie...

King and Court in Ancient Persia 559 to 331 BCE
ISBN: 9780748641253 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. The first Persian Empire (559-331 BCE) was the biggest land empire the world had seen, and seated at the heart of its vast dominions, in the south of modern-day Iran, was the person of the Great King. Immortalized in Greek literature as despotic tyrants, a new vision of Persian monarchy is emerging from Iranian, and other, sources (literary, visual, and archaeological), which show the Kings in a very different light. Inscriptions of Cyrus, Darius, Xerxes, and their heirs present an image of Persian rulers as liberators, peace-makers, valiant warriors, righteous god-fearing judges, and...

Towards the end of the fifth century BC Ctesias of Cnidus wrote his 23 book History of Persia. Ctesias is a remarkable figure: he lived and worked in the Persian court and, as a doctor, tended to the world's most powerful kings and queens. His position gave him special insight into the workings of Persian court life and access to the gossip and scandal surrounding Persian history and court politics, past and present. His History of Persia was completed at a time when the Greeks were fascinated by Persia and seems very much to cater to contemporary interest in Persian...

Aphrodite's Tortoise: The Veiled Woman of Ancient Greece
ISBN: 9780954384531 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Greek women routinely wore the veil. That is the unexpected finding of this meticulous study, one with interesting implications for the origins of Western civilisation. The Greeks, popularly (and rightly) credited with the invention of civic openness, are revealed as also part of a more Eastern tradition of seclusion. Llewellyn-Jones' work proceeds from literary and, notably, from iconographic evidence. In sculpture and vase painting it demonstrates the presence of the veil, often covering the head, but also more unobtrusively folded back onto the shoulders. This discreet fashion not only...

ISBN: 9781905125432 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 380 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Alexander's conquest of the Persian empire had far-reaching impact, in space and time.

In this book, leading scholars in the field explore the creation of this Hellenistic world, its cultural, political and economic transformations, and how far these were a consequence of Alexander's conquests. New kingdoms were established, new cities such as Alexandria and Antioch were founded, art and literature...
