ISBN: 9780861591749 / Angielski / Miękka / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The British Museum's collection of Japanese coins is one of the best outside Japan.

This is the first catalogue of the British Museum's collection of Japanese coins. Details of each coin are...

The Iconography of Early Anglo-Saxon Coinage: Sixth to Eighth Centuries
ISBN: 9780199583843 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is the first scholarly art-historical appraisal of Anglo-Saxon coinage, from its inception in the late sixth century to Offa's second reform of the penny c.792. Outside numismatic circles, this material has largely been ignored because of its complexity, yet artistically this is the most vibrant period of English coinage, with die-cutters showing flair and innovation and employing hundreds of different designs in their work. By analysing the iconography of the early coinage, this book intends to introduce its rich legacy to a wide audience.

The Image of Political Power in the Reign of Nerva, Ad 96-98
ISBN: 9780190648039 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. At age 65, Nerva assumed the role of emperor of Rome; just sixteen months later, his reign ended with his death. Nerva's short reign robbed his regime of the opportunity for the emperor's imperial image to be defined in building or monumental art, leaving seemingly little for the art historian or archaeologist to consider. In view of this paucity, studies of Nerva primarily focus on the historical circumstances governing his reign with respect to the few relevant literary sources. The Image of Political Power in the Reign of Nerva, AD 96-98, by contrast, takes the entire imperial...

Oxford Handbook of Greek and Roman Coinage
ISBN: 9780195305746 / Angielski / Twarda / 720 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A large gap exists in the literature of ancient numismatics between general works intended for collectors and highly specialized studies addressed to numismatists.

The Oxford Handbook of Greek and Roman Coinage will fill this gap by providing a systematic overview of the major coinages of the classical world. The Handbook begins with a general introduction by volume editor William E. Metcalf followed by an article establishing the...

This study deals with the iconographic theme of imperial Byzantine heavenly coronation', or Andre Grabar's couronnement symbolique, with particular attention to fine arts and numismatics.

It attempts to assemble all the known images of the heavenly coronation'...

Coins are a fertile source of information for the ancient historian; yet too often historians are uneasy about using them as evidence because of the special problems attaching to their interpretation.
