2021S6721<p>Exhibition catalogue:<strong> the most important exhibition ever organised by the Benaki Museum and the most extensive exhibition on modern Hellenism ever presented.</strong></p><p>.</p><p>Athens: Benaki Museum 2021. In English. Soft cover 23.5 cm 1218 pp. rich colour illustration 1300 color pictures maps and drawings; net weight 2080 gr. ISBN: 978-960-476-283-5.</p><p>More than 1200 objects gathered in the exhibition and spread across the 1218 pages of the accompanying catalogue showcase one hundred years of modern Greek history between 1770 and 1870. This century begins with the moral and economic preparations for the liberation of the Greeks reaches an apex with the 1821 Revolution and concludes with the first decades of the operation and development of the new Greek state. Through rare works of art and special testimonies from each era the three parts of the exhibition and the corresponding chapters of the catalogue offer a fascinating journey of history and art a journey that in each step reveals why this adventurous century remains so deeply engaging even in the 21st century.</p><p>The monumental catalogue <strong>1821 Before and After: <em>Greeks and Greece Revolution and State</em> </strong>is one of the most important publications on modern Greece in recent years.</p><p>Luxurious testimonies and artefacts of everyday life from the pre-revolutionary period mementoes of war from the Revolution years along with documents related to all forms of Greek administration coexist with bourgeois and popular artworks from the first decades of the new state combined with works of art from the 19th 20th and 21st centuries; altogether they testify to the echoes and reception of the Greek War of Independence. Together with loans from the co-organiser banks from organizations and from private collectors the extensive collections amassed by Antonis Benakis for the Museum he founded and donated to the Greek state take pride of place. These works create a deeply meaningful assemblage that traces the enchanting story of modern Greeks and brings to the fore the reasons of their very existence their perseverance and how far they have travelled: all the positive elements that have shaped modern Hellenism.</p><p><strong>CONTENTS:</strong></p><p>FOREWORDS</p><p>INTRODUCTORY TEXTS</p><p><strong><em>HELLENISM AND OTTOMAN RULE: </em></strong>Ottoman Empire and Administration 63 ◊ Travellers in Greek Lands and the Beginning of Philhellenism 81◊ Daily Life 97◊ Greek Commerce and Guilds 173◊ Education and Publishing 209◊ The Church and Worship 249◊ The Russo-Turkish War and the Orlov Revolt 271◊ Rigas Velestinles Pherrhaeos 287 ◊ Ali Pasha Souli and European Powers in the Ionian Sea 299 ◊ Armatoloi and Klefts 327 ◊ The Filiki Eteria 337</p><p><strong><em>REVOLUTION AND ITS HEROES </em></strong>Eighteen Twenty-One 357 ◊ Eighteen Twenty-Two 385 ◊ Eighteen Twenty-Three 407 ◊ Eighteen Twenty-Four 425 ◊ Eighteen Twenty-Five 437 ◊ Eighteen Twenty-Six 453 ◊ Eighteen Twenty-Seven 471 ◊ Portraits of 1821 495 ◊ Philhellenism 581 ◊ Ioannis Kapodistrias and the First Steps of the Greek State 613</p><p><strong><em>GREEKS AND THE STATE</em></strong> Τhe Arrival of King Otho 659 ◊ The Royals and the Palace 675 ◊ State Officials and Infrastructure 709 ◊ Economy Education and the Church 729 ◊ The Constitution and General Elections 765◊ The Megale Ιdea – The 'Great Idea' 781◊ The Nafplion Uprising and the Expulsion of King Otto 791 ◊ Moral Reward and the Deaths of Fighters 803 ◊ Revolution Art and Symbolism 829 ◊ A New Capital Bridges to the Past and the Other Cities 839 ◊ The Faces of the Young State 979 ◊ From foustanella to the Western Dress 1003 ◊ The Election of King George I and the Unification of the Ionian Islands 1059 ◊ The New Royals the Politicians and the New Court 1077 ◊ Banditry 1119 ◊ Public Works and Education 1125 ◊ Irredentism 1147 ◊ Popularity and the Second Life of the Revolution 1155 ◊ The Resilience of '1821' in Twentieth Century Art 1171 ◊ The Corinth Canal: A Gash Through the Earth a Step into the Future 1197 ◊ 'Hail oh Hail Liberty' 1207</p><p><strong>IMPORTANT: The shipping cost in not included in the price.

200136165Heritage Trust of Lincolnshire. 2001. Softcover. Near Fine. Faint shelfwear.; This volume contains reports on three major excavations at Cowbit and Morton Lincolnshire and Middleton Norfolk conducted as part of the Fenland Management Project. The sites are all concerned primarily with salt-making and between them they span the Iron Age to Late Roman periods. The detailed work has enabled the compilation of a much needed type series for briquetage which it is hoped will be useful in describing the material from all coastal salterns. Also contained within this volume is a re-assessment of the landscape context of the Fenland sites an examination of the importance of salt production to the Fenland communities and recommendations for further areas of research in this subject.; Lincolnshire Archaeology and Heritage Report Series No. 4; 4to 11" - 13" tall; 509 pages . 0948639326 .

2011171680<p>In English. Soft cover 24 cm 420 pp. ill.: 70 B/W photos. ISBN: 978-960-9499-68-2.</p><p>The seismicity in Greece and in the adjacent regions is the highest in the Western Eurasia. One of the most active seismotectonic structures in that region is the Hellenic Arc and Trench H-AT system. The island of Crete occupies the central segment of H-AT just to the north of the front where the lithospheric plates of Africa and Eurasia converge and the former bends and subducts beneath the later. Therefore the shallow and intermediate-depth seismicity in the area of Crete is very high. In addition these processes produce other important geodynamic phenomena such as volcanic eruptions along the South Aegean Sea island arc as well as tsunamis. In Crete civilization was developed long ago and because of this the earthquake record goes also very back in the past. The rich seismic history of Crete was documented so far in historical sources and instrumental records. However historical documentation is not complete and several earthquake events escaped historical record and remained unknown. In addition some strong events of the instrumental era of seismicity are not well-studied. Therefore there is need to review and complete further the historical seismicity of Crete. This is the first objective for writing this book. It is worth noting that new knowledge about historical earthquakes and tsunamis in the area of Crete was accumulated from geological and archaeological observations. In addition analytical laboratory results e.g. for dating purposes and numerical modeling of tsunami waves yield new insight in the study of earthquakes and tsunamis. However such new knowledge has not been integrated so far into a unified methodological approach as a supplement to historical and instrumental documentation. This is exactly the second objective for writing this book.The third reason that justifies writing this book is that three very important key-events have taken place exactly in the area of Crete: The LBA 17th century BC or Minoan giant eruption of Thera volcano and its associated large tsunami as well as the big tsunamigenic earthquakes of AD 365 and 1303. The repeat of such extreme events in the future would have dramatic consequences for the communities in a large part of the Mediterranean basin. Therefore their study by all available means is a scientific challenge of high-priority.</p><p>CONTENTS:</p><p>Chapter 1: Geodynamics Seismotectonic Setting and Seismicity - Chapter 2: Information Sources Data and Methodology - Chapter 3: Key Events and Key Test-Sites - Chapter 4: Earthquakes and Tsunamis in Minoan and Doric Crete 20th century to 2nd century B.C. - Chapter 5.

Si le present volume contient moins de documents ceux-ci sont plus varies et se repartissent mieux dans le temps; contrairement au volume precedent le nombre de documents publics est important et illustre bien l'histoire de certaines cites particulierement a l'epoque hellenistique. Comme par le passe nous n'avons pas voulu presenter un catalogue laconique mais nous avons cru bon de pousser au maximum le commentaire des textes meme les plus humbles puisque ceux-ci constituent une des bases de l 'histoire des cites. Celle-ci a ete brievement dressee avant le corpus de chaque cite et sert de cadre au catalogue qui suit; le sous-titre de l'ouvrage "Epigraphie et histoire" indique l'importance attribuee peut-etre pour la premiere fois pour l'elaboration de cette synthese historique aux documents epigraphiques bien que les autres sources -litteraires numismatiques ou archeologiques- n'aient pas ete negligees. Au moment de la parution de la presente publication il m'est agreable de remercier les nombreuses personnes qui de facons diverses m'ont aide dans l'elaboration de cet ouvrage. Mes remerciements s'adressent tout d'abord au Service des Antiquites Helleniques et particulierement aux ephores et epimeletes de Patras V. Petracos Ph. Petsas Iph. Decoulacou 1. Papapostolou L.

Je dois beaucoup aux discussions que j'ai eues avec chacun d'eux particulierement avec M. Petropoulos L. Papakosta G. Alexopoulou E. Kollia et A. Vordos. Leurs observations m'ont aide a eviter des erreurs precisement dans la partie de la synthese concernant l'interpretation des documents archeologiques. .</em></p><p> </p><p>=====================================================</p><p><em>The shipping cost estimated by the system covers books weighing up to 750 gr.; a surcharge depending on the actual weight and destination applies for heavier books.</em></p> Centre de Recherches de l'Antiquité Grecque et Romaine hardcover
