New English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (22 x 15 cm). In English. 192 p. Color and b/w ills. "Metropolis is a city of the Mother Goddess in Ionia. The classical city of Metropolis is situated 45 km from Izmir and the Aegean coast overlooking the Torbali plain alongside the Izmir - Aydin motorway. In classical times the communication route was the Cayster River (Kucuk Menderes) and Metropolis lay at the mid point between Smyrna and Ephesus. Lying beneath the classical city are Neolithic and Bronze Age settlements - and above the classical city is a Byzantine settlement and fort, also used during the Ottoman period. Metropolis lived its golden era during the Late Hellenistic Period. Altars were erected in honour of Emperor Augustus during Roman Imperial Period. It became a bishopric in the Age of Byzantine Empire. Its people governed the city from its acropolis, worshipped gods, wandered and shopped in its stoa, decided on city in bouleuterion, enjoyed plays in its theatre. Now archaeologists are excavating where Metropolis once built, tracking past civilizations authoring the story of humanity reaching our days from centuries ago. The site has been excavated for the past 18 years by the Dokuz Eylul University, Izmir under the guidance of Professor Recep Meric. From 2007 Dr Serdar Aybek from The University of Trakya has taken over leadership of the excavation.".

" 'Anne Brigman' fills a gap in the understanding of what photography was about in the decade 1903-1913 when the soft-focus, pictorial approach was commanding attention for the first time. Anne Brigman was in the forefront of this style, and, the only woman from the west to be included in the noted gallery of mader art 291, she led the interest in the bay area. The collection of her work in The Oakland Museum is no doubt the strongest in any museum, and, thanks to the gifts of Mr. and Mrs. Willard Nott, contains many important family letters and mementoes."
