Per Wikipedia John Clarke Stobart 1878 - 1933 Commonly Known As J. C. Stobart Was A Classical Scholar A University Of Cambridge Lecturer An Hm Inspector Of Schools And The Bbc's First Director Of Education. After The War He Helped Organize The 1924 British Empire Exhibition At Wembley And In 1925 Joined The Bbc As Its First Director Of Education. He Was Responsible For Two Long-Lasting Programs Children's Hour And The Epilogue And According To One Source Suggested The Bbc's Motto 'Nation Shall Speak Peace Unto Nation'. He Also Proposed Creating A New Cultural Network To Be Named The Minerva Programme After The Roman Goddess Of Wisdom But This Idea Was Turned Down And Was Not Realised Until The Creation Of 'The Third Programme' At The End Of The Second World War. Stobart Became Well-Known All Over The World For His Regular New Year's Eve Broadcast 'The Grand Good-Night'. He Disagrees With Edward Gibbon's Pessimistic View Of The Decline And Fall Of The Roman Empire Pointing Out That 'The Mere Notion Of Empire Continuing To Decline And Fall For Five Centuries Is Ridiculous' And Remarking That 'This Is One Of The Cases Which Prove That History Is Made Not So Much By Heroes Or Natural Forces As By Historians' Since 'If All The Roman Historians Had Perished And Only The Inscriptions Remained We Should Have A Very Different Picture Of The Roman Empire A Picture Much Brighter And I Think Much More Faithful To Truth.' He Admires The Romans For Their Law Discipline Engineering And Especially Their Sanitation But It Is Clear That He Prefers The Greeks For Their Art Philosophy Mathematics And Literature. <br/> <br/> Sidgwick & Jackson hardcover

19733299Princeton University Press. 1973. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine in No Dust Jacket dust jacket. 233 pages; Athens was the dominant maritime power in the West from the eighth to fourth centuries BCE. Athenian preeminence insured that its maritime law was accepted throughout the Mediterranean world. Indeed its influence outlasted Athens and is the only area of classical Greek law that wasn't replaced entirely by Roman models. Codified during the Roman period in the Rhodian Sea laws it went on to influence the subsequent development of European commercial and maritime law. Cohen explores the development of Athenian maritime law the jurisdiction and procedure of the courts and the Athenian principles that have endured to the present day. . 0691092273 .

Very light shelfwear else Fine.; Potsdamer Altertumswissenschaftliche Beitrage Pawb Band 34; 532 pages; English summary: The ability to translate the inner world of ideas into image displays is one of the original human characteristics. The figments of imagination translated into the communicative sphere as images represent not only external forms but also memories conveyed fears hopes or other emotions. This is especially true as it pertains to religion. But what image of God did the majority of Greeks of the ancient world hold and what were their godly images The book by Peter Eich focuses on the prevailing ideas that religious image production held in Greece as well as on the community-building function of religious images over the course of time. Contemporary testimonies are fully investigated and reinterpreted in their idiom and their contexts of meaning. German text. German description: Die Fahigkeit die innere Vorstellungswelt in Bilddarstellungen umzusetzen gehort zu den ursprunglichen menschlichen Eigenschaften. Die aus der Vorstellung in die kommunikative Sphare ubersetzten Bilder reproduzieren nicht nur aussere Formen sondern verankern auch Erinnerungen oder transportieren Angste Hoffnungen oder andere Emotionen. Dies gilt besonders auf dem Gebiet der Religion. Doch welches Gottesbild hatte die Mehrheit der Griechen der Antike und was waren Gotterbilder fur sieDas Buch von Peter Eich konzentriert sich auf die in Hellas vorherrschenden Vorstellungen die die religiose Bildproduktion bedingten und die gemeinschaftsstiftende Funktion sakraler Bilder im Wandel der Zeit. Dazu werden die Aussagen der Zeitgenossen in ihrem Idiom und in ihren Sinnzusammenhangen umfassend untersucht und mit Hilfe eines verbreiterten Methodenkanons neu gedeutet. . 3515098550 .
