Created and developed by the Ptolemaic kings, the Library of Alexandria was regarded as the world's main center of scholarship from the 3 rd century BC until at least the reign of Cleopatra (48-30 BC). The dream to establish a gigantic library that could assemble all known texts of the Hellenistic period, the outstanding achievements of the scholars who worked inside its walls, and, finally, the mysteries surrounding its disappearance, have bestowed an almost mythic status on this monumental library. Where was the Royal Library exactly located? What kind of texts were kept in that library? To what extent did the Library of Alexandria become a meeting point for different languages and cultures? Should we distinguish between the Museum and the Library from an institutional point of view? Were the book collections housed in separate buildings? What caused the destruction of those collections and how much was lost? Why do some ancient authors remain silent about the Library's disappearance? Polis--The Jerusalem Institute of Languages and Humanities held an international conference to seek answers to these question. The 2015 conference on the Library of Alexandria gathered historians, archaeologists, and linguists, as well as specialists on the Septuagint and on Greek literature. This book presents the proceedings of the interdisciplinary conference.…

Softcover. Condition: Fine. Vergilbt / ausgeblichen. La Coele-Syrie a eu une definition mouvante, coincidant ou s'opposant a la Palestine / Philistie, Phenicie / Canaan, Syrie / Assyrie, Transeuphratene et Peree du Jourdain. L'epithete koile, creuse, s'explique par la maniere grecque de designer un pays vallonne - le couloir de l'Oronte, du Litani et du Jourdain. Aux IIIe et IIe siecles, la Coele-Syrie fur restreinte a la zone cotiere disputee entre Lagides et Seleucides. Suite aux expansions asmoneenne et herodienne de la Judee, l'appellation s'est retrouvee refoulee au-dela du Jourdain, couvrant la Decapole. Au IIIe siecle apr. J.-C., la Syria Coele designe la province romaine d'Antioche. Les perceptions variables des chaines du Liban et de l'Antiliban justifient ces deplacements et marquent la difference ineluctable entre les espaces fluides des Anciens et les territoires figes des Modernes.…

Condition: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 397 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Mihai Olos (b. Arini¿, Romania, 1940; d. Endingen am Kaiserstuhl, 2015) ranks among the most fascinating artists of the second half of the twentieth century. His adaptations of the formal vocabulary pioneered by Constantin Brâncüi are unrivaled in their creative originality. His works evince an utterly novel approach to the combination of materials from the culture of rural Romania with the visual strategies of modernism. His formidable oeuvre engages with conceptual and minimal art and comprises paintings, drawings, and sculptures, sometimes in the dimensions of land-art projects, as well as performances and poetry. Despite the constraints imposed by the communist system, his art and travels-during which he also met his kindred spirit Joseph Beuys-were dedicated to the unerring pursuit of his vision of social sculpture and radical utopian architecture.…
