My mother was called Evdokia and this is her story as well as the story of the people who accompanied her in such a short and tragic passage through the world. Leaving, she left behind everything: her mother, her two brothers, her home and a country ravaged and impoverished by a world war and a civil conflict worse than the fascist scourge that swept across Europe.Soon the first storms of winds that were sown in Greece will break out in the Promised Land... When Evdokia married Aristides, no one in the village could believe that a girl only nineteen years old ...was given to Aristides. When once I asked her if she loved Dad, she had said a resounding "no" ...I had the impression that behind this laconic answer was a great story that he did not want to share with anyone. 399p.

To say this book is innovative, challenging and has far-reaching consequences in the field of archaeology, would be an understatement. Accompanying an exhibition held in the National Archaeological Museum in Athens (July-November 1999) this is a unique study of the eating and drinking habits, health, disease and medicine of the Mycenaean and Minoan civilisations. It is based on the most up-to-date scientific techniques testing residues from ceramic vessels (cups, bowls, storage jars, both decorated and plain) , married with analysis of faunal, plant, and molluscan remains from excavations, iconographic and written sources, and human remains. It is rare in archaeology to be able to answer questions posed with a yes or no answer and provide scientific proof at the same time. Did they drink beer at Myrtos? Yes! Did they eat meat and vegetable stew at Chania? Yes! Was retsina really discovered in the Greek Bronze Age? Yes! The methods, approach and findings from this project, which is still in progress, have far-reaching significance both within and outside an Aegean context. ; 4to 11" - 13" tall; 287 pages

"This book provides an introduction to the critical interpretation of Athenian myths. It does not retell the various myths under consideration, but rather examines the myths from a variety of perspectives, including the traditional historical and literary-critical interpretations, as well as the more modern approaches of anthropologists, feminist critics, and in particular, the work of the French structuralists Jean-Pierre Vernant, Marcel Detienne, and Pierre Vidal-Naquet.
