The 2-volume handbook is dedicated to one of the most significant processes in the history of ancient Greece - colonisation. Greeks set up colonies and other settlements in new environments, establishing themselves in lands stretching from the Iberian Peninsula in the west to North Africa in the south and the Black Sea in the north east. In this colonial world Greek and local structures met, influenced and enriched each other. The handbook brings together historians and archaeologists, all world experts, to present the latest ideas and evidence. The principal aim is to present and update the general picture of this phenomenon, showing its importance in the history of the whole ancient world, including the Near East. The work is dedicated to Prof. A.J. Graham. This first volume gives a lengthy introduction to the problem, including methodological and theoretical issues. The chapters cover Mycenaean expansion, Phoenician and Phocaean colonisation, Greeks in the western Mediterranean, Syria, Egypt and southern Anatolia, etc. The volume is richly illustrated.
A major new collection of use to all students and scholars working on Hellenistic Greek poetry
Originally presented as the author's thesis (Ph. D.-- University of Pennsylvania)
Greek civilization and identity crystallized not when Greeks were close together but when they came to be far apart. This book looks at how Greek the network shaped a small Greek world where separation is measured by degrees of contact rather than by physical dimensions.
By taking a look at colonization and subalternity, this book offers a different view on Classical Greece and its modern legacy.
Markets, Households and City-States in the Ancient Greek Economy brings together sixteen essays by leading scholars of the ancient Greek economy. The essays investigate the role of market-exchange in the economy of the ancient Greek world in the Classical and Hellenistic periods.
Examines the use of mythology to justify conquest and colonization across the Spartan Mediterranean in the archaic and Classical periods.
"This book focuses on the Apocalypse's use of familiar two-women topos (the "whore" or evil woman and the "bride" or good woman) to depict the New Jersalem as an alternative to Babylon and to exhort the audience to chose between the two cities." "Early apocalyptic language, Rossing writes, can function in two ways, either to control the behavior of individuals or to provide an alternative vision and encouragement of new community structures in the face of oppression. The choice for the good woman advocated by the Apocalypse is not a gendered or individualistic choice but a political one - a choice for God's New Jerusalem, God's alternative city of justice and well being."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
