PSICOMUSICOLOGIA NELLA GRECIA ANTICA. A CURA DI ANGELO MERIANI

DISPONIBILITÀ GARANTITA AL 99%; SPEDIZIONE ENTRO 12 ORE DALL'ORDINE. RIMANENZA DI MAGAZZINO PARI AL NUOVO. MAI SFOGLIATO, LIEVISSIMI SEGNI DEL TEMPO. L'intera vita sociale dei Greci era piena di mousikè: se non tutti, moltissimi erano in grado di cantare e danzare e, in misura minore, di suonare uno strumento. La musica era presente in tutte le feste ufficiali ateniesi (da 120 a 144), aggiungiamo a queste le molte feste private e quelle legate a nascite, matrimoni, funerali e il quadro sarà più completo. Mai più, nella storia occidentale, si è potuto registrare un nesso così potente tra la musica e la vita di un intera comunità politica. La musica non veniva fissata per iscritto e i suoi canali di trasmissione dovettero essere prevalentemente orali-aurali. Ecco perché sono rimasti pochissimi frammenti di partiture musicali. Un campo di indagine molto più promettente è rappresentato invece dal ricchissimo corpus di testimonianze e riflessioni sulla musica e sui suoi effetti: testi letterari, scientifici e filosofici, che ci danno la preziosa opportunità di ascoltare la musica antica con l'orecchio degli antichi. Vede ora la luce questo libro che non mancherà di suscitare l'interesse degli antichisti, dei musicologi, dei filosofi, e che abbiamo il singolare privilegio di presentare ai lettori direttamente in italiano.

Kravges Tis Smrynis / The Whispering Voices of Smyrna (Greek Edition)

Smyrna, one of the wealthiest cities and the most advanced civilizations in the Middle East (present-day Turkey) with a unique mixture of many nationalities-Greek, Armenian, Jewish, Turkish, European, and American-perished into ashes in September 1922. The Smyrniots became victims through the orders of Mustafa Ataturk, who was responsible for one of the largest purges of humanity known to man. This eradication led to the loss of 3.5 million Greek and Armenian Orthodox Christians who had occupied Asia Minor since the time of Alexander the Great. In September 1922, Ataturk led his troops into Smyrna (now Izmir), a predominantly Greek Christian City that was known as the City of Infidels to the Turks. The Turks then proceeded to indulge in an orgy of pillage, rape, and slaughter. This City of Infidels was cleansed and destroyed and with it the last hub of Christians in Turkey. The Whispering Voices of Smyrna is proof of the horrible atrocities the Turks, whether private citizens or government officials, committed by plundering, torturing, mutilating, burning alive, and massacring women, children, and aged people. The book details these brutal acts that were decided, planned, and directed by the Turkish central authorities and were aimed at cleansing lands under Turkish control of non-Muslim citizens. The Whispering Voices of Smyrna combines history and storytelling so that readers understand how the decision by government and military leaders of the victorious Allied powers affected the people of Smyrna. Through the eyes of the Samithakis family, one lives the cataclysmic events that determined the fate of Asia Minor following World War I. The Samithakis family lived a life of luxury among the different nationalities in Smyrna, until the Turks forced them to flee with other Greek, Armenian and European residents of Smyrna. In the course of their struggle to save themselves from the fire, the massacres, rapes, mutilations and plundering, they lost one another and became refugees, beggars and exiles. The reader also lives through the stages of destruction of a civilization centered on the once-thriving and beloved city of Smyrna. 350p.

Aegean Notebooks: Reflections by Sea and Land in the Archipelago

(New - will be sent to you direct from the publisher in Greece) Translated by Liadain Sherrard, Zissimos Lorenzatos (1915-2004), essayist, thinker and poet, was arguably Greece's most significant man of letters in the twentieth century. In the Aegean Notebooks, a record of his observations and reflections while sailing among the Greek islands in the 1970s and 1980s, the special quality of his literary and philosophical gifts, and of the man himself, are vividly present. Along with everything a mariner yearns to bring ashore, all he has felt and experienced at sea with the wake of the boat unfurling behind him, Lorenzatos brings us in addition a lifetime's learning and contemplation. For him, life, and the living of it, was of the essence. As he observes in his foreword to these notebooks: '. . . life itself writes nothing, it erases everything that is written about it, and simply, irreplaceably lives, like the inaccessible "well of water springing up".' 138p. map

The Way of Herodotus: Travels with the Man Who Invented History

During the classical age of Greece, Herodotus wrote the first history text. But what he created was much more than this. Informed by his own travels, his historical work digresses more than it chronicles, with tales of the lands and peoples he visited. In The Way of Herodotus , intrepid travel historian Justin Marozzi retraces the footsteps of Herodotus through the Mediterranean and Middle East, examining his 2,500-year-old observations about the cultures and places he visited, and finding echoes of his legacy reverberating to this day. It is a lively yet thought-provoking excursion into the world of Herodotus, with the man who invented history ever present, guiding the narrative with his discursive spirit.348p. illus bibliography.index

Vers 1730, on publia les premiers numéros d'une vaste entreprise littéraire, proposée par souscription dont le plan avait été dressé par M. Sale, habile dans les langues orientales : c'était une histoire universelle de tous les peuples du monde. Comme cet ouvrage obtenait peu de succès, les propriétaires, ayant appris que Psalmanazar avait dirigé ses études sur l'histoire ancienne, lui proposèrent de coopérer à cette entreprise. Il y consentit, à condition que l'ouvrage soit rédigé dans un tout autre esprit et que les écritures saintes soient prises pour base. Dès que Psalmanazar eut mis à jour les volumes dont il était l'auteur, le nombre des souscripteurs augmenta considérablement. Il s'y consacra jusqu'à sa mort en 1763. Cette compilation eu un très grand succès. Elle contient notamment l'histoire des Juifs, des Celtes, l'histoire ancienne de la Grèce, de l'Espagne, l'histoire des anciens Empires de Nicée et de Trébizonde, les histoires des Germains et des Gaulois, l'histoire de Thèbes et de Corinthe, la retraite des dix-mille pour la partie ancienne;...."L'histoire ancienne est plus estimée que la moderne".

The Jews Among the Greeks and Romans, 1915

Theatre for Dreamers

1960. The world is dancing on the edge of revolution, and nowhere more so than on the Greek island of Hydra, where a circle of poets, painters and musicians live tangled lives, ruled by the writers Charmian Clift and George Johnston, troubled king and queen of bohemia. Forming within this circle is a triangle: its points the magnetic, destructive writer Axel Jensen, his dazzling wife Marianne Ihlen, and a young Canadian poet named Leonard Cohen. Into their midst arrives teenage Erica, with little more than a bundle of blank notebooks and her grief for her mother. Settling on the periphery of this circle, she watches, entranced and disquieted, as a paradise unravels.

From coexistence to conflict Turkish and Greek relations in an age of Turmoil, (1821-1922).

New English Paperback. Cr. 8vo. (20 x 14 cm). In English. 285 p. This book analyzes the Turkish and Greek narratives of shared Turkish-Greek history by focusing on the "long nineteenth century", which was a period of turmoil for both societies. The four centuries of Ottoman rule over the Greek community, the Greek rebellion/war of independence, emergence of an independent Greek state, Ottoman reforms with regard to millet system, joint efforts of some Turkish and Greek communities for the re-promulgation of the Ottoman Constitution, increasing tensions between the Committee of Union and Progress and the Greek community and finally the transformation from coexistence to conflict during and after the World War I are covered briefly with the conflicting lenses of Turkish and Greek historiography. The book also attracts attention to Greek claims for a Greek Genocide by the Ottoman/Turkish authorities during and after the World War I and questions whether inter-communal clashes in Western and Northern Anatolia in this period can be considered as genocide in accordance with international law.
