2001S9068Nicosia: Politistiko Hidryma Trapezes Kyprou 2001. Brand new. Bilingual Greek / English illustrated edition. Folder 28 x 27 / 320 pp.; a CD with music and songs from various regions of Asia Minor is included in the case. Almost eighty years have passed since the Asia Minor Disaster 1922 which was such a tragically determining factor in the history of modern Hellenism. The Bank of Cyprus Cultural Foundation and Ephesus Publishing have decided to publish the present richly illustrated volume as the least we could do as an act of homage to the world of Asia Minor to those who lost their lives and to those who were uprooted from the land of their fathers. Smyrna a cosmopolitan city but with a large and prosperous Greek community is presented symbolically as representing all the Greeks of Asia Minor whose metropolis it was. The unique pictorial material used in this publication consists mainly of postcards but also photographs from important historical archives. The cards have been selected from a rich collection and indeed this may be the first time they have all been published together. Thus the reader can find a virtually complete picture of the Ionian capital since most of the individual pieces in the mosaic are presented in these pages. In addition a picture is provided of present-day Smyrna with photographs taken especially for this publication. The fact that this is essentially an art book does not mean that less attention has been paid to the texts. On the contrary the collaboration with the Centre for Asia Minor Studies has ensured the desired level of quality and endowed the work with an academic identity.

20028896Cambridge University Press. 2002. Softcover. Very Good. 264 pages; The warring Greek city-states of the classical period often found it advantageous to use slaves in their armed forces and to encourage rebellion or desertion among the slaves of their enemies. But since military service was highly esteemed while the state of slavery was despised classical Greek historians such as Herodotus Thucydides and Xenophon tended not to discuss slave participation in war. This book examines the actual role of slaves in war the neglect of it by historians and the reasons for this reticence. . 0521893909 . Cambridge University Press paperback

2008143955<p>Meletemata Series No. 53. In English. Soft cover 30 cm 256 pp.; net weight 1270 gr.</p><p>The Aegean is a unique region in which several ancient civilizations developed. Despite the problems the sea posed for communications and everyday life human settlement and organization are well attested from earliest times. Moreover some extremely important cultures took shape in the Neolithic and the Bronze Age. The cultures of the Cycladic islanders the Minoans and the Therans were followed by the Egyptians and the Phoenicians. Strong cities and mighty hegemonies arose such as Euboea Athens Macedonia Thasos and Rhodes while the Romans had to conquer the whole region in order to cross the sea securely and extend their power further east. All these civilizations with their close inter-connections and reciprocal influences as well as their contacts with the world beyond constituted a strong chain of culture that endured for many centuries. Difficulties created by the sea and the scatteredness of the islands as well as by hostile incursions from the mainland had little serious effect on the continuity of life and communication in the Aegean. The Romans and later the Byzantines having created an enormous imperium dealt with the region as a whole. The idea of mare nostrum was eminently appropriate to the Aegean before it spread to the entire Mediterranean. These waters were always regarded as a factor of unification rather than of separation by the people living on the islands or the shores as borne out by their rich variety of relations common reactions and policies. In the restricted space of a volume we can only give some hints or glimpses at the immense circulation of ideas people goods artefacts and coins that took place across Aegean waters in ancient times. That is why we chose not to concentrate on one subject or one chronological period but to ask for contributions on a variety of subjects and from different periods each shedding some light on the diverse aspects of life in the Archipelago.</p><p><strong>CONTENTS:</strong></p><ol><li>Incifer Banu Dogan & Anna Michailidou "<em>Trading in prehistory and protohistory: Perspectives from the eastern Aegean and beyond"</em></li><li>Marina Panagiotaki <em>"Exchange of prestige technologies as evidence of cultural interactions and integration between the Aegean and the Near East in the Bronze Age"</em></li><li>Christos Doumas "N<em>omos Rhodion Nautikos".

20017041The Johns Hopkins University Press. 2001. Hardcover. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. Very minor shelfwear to DJ.; 208 pages; In 404 BCE the Peloponnesian War finally came to an end when the Athenians starved into submission were forced to accept Sparta's terms of surrender. Shortly afterwards a group of thirty conspirators with Spartan backing "the Thirty" overthrew the democracy and established a narrow oligarchy. Although the oligarchs were in power for only thirteen months they killed more than 5 percent of the citizenry and terrorized the rest by confiscating the property of some and banishing many others. Despite this brutality members of the democratic resistance movement that regained control of Athens came to terms with the oligarchs and agreed to an amnesty that protected collaborators from prosecution for all but the most severe crimes. The war and subsequent reconciliation of Athenian society has been a rich field for historians of ancient Greece. From a rhetorical and ideological standpoint this period is unique because of the extraordinary lengths to which the Athenians went to maintain peace. In Remembering Defeat Andrew Wolpert claims that the peace was "negotiated and constructed in civic discourse" and not imposed upon the populace. Rather than explaining why the reconciliation was successful as a way of shedding light on changes in Athenian ideology Wolpert uses public speeches of the early fourth century to consider how the Athenians confronted the troubling memories of defeat and civil war and how they explained to themselves an agreement that allowed the conspirators and their collaborators to go unpunished. Encompassing rhetorical analysis trauma studies and recent scholarship on identity memory and law Wolpert's study sheds new light on a pivotal period in Athens' history. . 0801867908 .

Soft cover 24 cm 400 pp.; net weight 850 gr.</p><p>Provincial elites were an important factor in the life of the Ottoman Empire in many respects: as local leadership as political figures mediating between the central state and its provinces as tax-farmers and entrepreneurs as role models for their peers. There is a wide variety of people who may be regarded as belonging to the Ottoman provincial elites because of both the extensive territory occupied by the Empire and its longevity. Eighteen contributions published in this volume discuss several aspects of Ottoman provincial elites both Muslim and non-Muslim. Among the topics covered are the composition and characteristics of the elite elite culture patronage and wealth and power bases relations of elite figures with the state authorities and other members of the elite and elite mobility over an extensive period of time ranging from the fifteenth to the early twentieth century.</p> CUP paperback
