The Historians of Greece and Rome
ISBN: 9780862921521 / Angielski / Miękka / 285 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Our understanding of Greek and Roman civilization is in considerable measure a product of the intelligence and literary skills of its historians. Writing at different times and from different vantage points, the surviving historians illustrate the influences to which the genre was subjected in the course of its development. After Herodotus had established history as an independent form of literature, Thucydides defined its purpose and set a high standard of scientific and literary skill. Xenophon introduced new and abiding characteristics and Polybius repudiated the influences of rhetoric...

The South Stoa and Its Roman Successors
ISBN: 9780876610145 / Angielski / Twarda / 186 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. After a discussion of the fragmentary evidence for several buildings of the Greek period which were swept to construct it, the South Stoa at Corinth is treated in detail. Careful description of all the remains, both those in situ and reused blocks, forms the basis of the reconstruction of this extensive two-story building of the third quarter of the 4th century B.C. which stretched the full length of the south side of the Corinthian Agora and, more than any other single building, established the size and shape of the center of the Hellenistic and Roman city. One of the largest secular...

The Potters' Quarter: The Pottery
ISBN: 9780876611531 / Angielski / Twarda / 447 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The long-awaited final part of the publication of the Corinth Potters Quarter is based on the work of the excavator, A. N. Stillwell, edited and supplemented after her death by J. L. Benson. The pottery, although frequently fragmentary, can often be assigned to known painters or workshops, and the deposits, especially in view of the defective pieces in them, can be argued to contain material almost exclusively of local manufacture. A brief introduction serves to explain the organization of the catalogue and to characterize the principal deposits, most of which contained material from several...

The East Side of the Agora: The Remains Beneath the Stoa of Attalos
ISBN: 9780876612279 / Angielski / Twarda / 269 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Stoa of Attalos now covers the remains several centuries of previous occupation. Mycenaean and Protogeometric burials represent the early use of the area. By the Late Geometric period, the presence of a few wells indicates a shift to domestic occupation; others containing 6th-century B.C. material suggest the presence of workshops and commercial activity as well as houses. The earliest physical remains are those of an Archaic altar; some rubble structures may have been hastily built by refugees during the Peloponnesian War. At the end of the 5th century B.C., a group of public buildings...
