Maison de l'Orient Mediterraneen 1994. Brand new. Soft cover, 32 cm, 214 pp., ill. Large numbers of fragments of mould-made, standing, draped female figurines dating to the Classical period were found at Salamis, not in association with a particular building, but in debris associated with the ramparts, suggesting the location of a sanctuary nearby. 909 items are catalogued in this volume. Some figures have a decorated headdress (calathos), others are carrying various types of animals, birds, flowers or other objects or holding their breasts. Analysis of the figurines indicates that certain series were made in workshops at Salamis whereas others were probably made elsewhere in eastern Cyprus. The figurines are an important source of information on female dress and jewellery of the time, and they illuminate fashions and tastes at Salamis in the 5th- 4th centuries B.C. Preface by Jean Pouilloux, foreword by Marguerite Yon. Concordance table between Salamis inventory numbers and catalogue numbers in… Read More

The island of Samothrace in the north Aegean was home to one of the most famous panhellenic sanctuaries in the ancient world, the Sanctuary of the Great Gods. This official guide to the site was revised and updated by longtime excavation director James R. McCredie. Two initial chapters provide background information on the history of Samothrace and the religion of the Great Gods. Following this are two tours. The first takes the reader through the site of the Sanctuary of the Great Gods, home to cryptic mysteries where a variety of gods were worshiped, including the Great Mother, Hades, and Persephone. The tour includes plans and drawings of the monumental structures at the Sanctuary, such as the Rotunda of Arisonoe and the Propylon of Ptolemy II, allowing the reader to visualize what the Sanctuary would have looked like when it was still an… Read More

Translated into English. Soft cover, 18 cm, 160 pp. This representative selection from the work of one of modern Greece's most fascinating poets was made shortly after his award of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1979. It is drawn from all periods of his distinguished career and traces his development from early surrealism, in which he transforms French influence into a distinct personal voice and mythology, through the dramatic style of "The Axion Esti" with its blend of spirituality and earthiness, up to the later work in which he experiments with new modes for expressing his perennial themes. The poems are chosen, introduced and mainly translated by the leading translators of modern Greek poetry, Edmund Keeley and the late Philip Sherrard, whose collaborations also included translations of Seferis, Cavafy and Sikelianos. Other contributors to the book include George Savvides, Nanos Valaorites and John Stathatos.

The sixth edition of the Shorter Oxford English Dictionary is updated, enlarged and enlivened with new words, new definitions, revised illustrative quotations, and a fully customizable CD-ROM.

At a fraction of the price, the Shorter offers much of the same content, and provides the same quality of lexical excellence as its parent dictionary. No other dictionary comes close to the Shorter\'s range and depth. It offers over 500,000 definitions covering virtually every word or phrase in use in the English language (worldwide) since 1700. Each entry identifies a word\'s various meanings, origins, part of speech, pronunciation, and presents combinations in which the word is often found as well as cross-references to related words.

[On the Spiritual and Cultural History of the Orthodox Slavic World]. In greek. Soft cover, 21 cm, 296 pp. // O εκχριστιανισμός των Σλάβων που ξεκίνησε ουσιαστικά με το έργο των θεσσαλονικέων αδελφών Κωνσταντίνου-Κυρίλλου και Μεθοδίου καθόρισε ουσιαστικά ολόκληρη τη μετέπειτα ιστορική τους πορεία και διαμόρφωσε την πνευματική και πολιτιστική τους ταυτότητα. Η επιλογή της Κωνσταντινούπολης να μεταδώσει τη χριστιανική πίστη στη γλώσσα των Σλάβων σύμφωνα με την πάγια αρχή της Ανατολικής Εκκλησίας, την οποία ακολουθεί απαρέγκλιτα μέχρι σήμερα, αποτέλεσε την αφετηρία για τη δημιουργία του πρώτου… Read More

In French. Soft cover, 24 cm, 248 pp. ISBN: 9789604852376.Smyrne a une place particuliere dans la memoire collective. II est bon que des historiens se penchent sur ce passe souvent fantasme et encore cause d'enthousiasmes nostalgiques ou, et c'est pire, de rancoeurs mortiferes. Inversement, la turcite d'Izmir et la conviction que septembre 1922 fut une juste liberation sont bien ancrees dans le discours officiel du pays voisin. Smyrne s'est transformee d'echelle commerciale levantine sur une mer ottomane en une ville frontiere lors du recul territorial ottoman entame des la fin du XVIIe siecle. Enjeu de convoitises diverses, la grecque et la turque nationaliste n'etant que les plus legitimes, la ville est epargnee pendant le premier conflit mondial mais a la defaite de l'Empire ottoman, alors que les structures imperiales semblent devoir s'effacer, la Grece prend pied sur le continent asiatique et des membres de l'elite ottomane forment le mouvement national pour contrer la dislocation de ce qui reste… Read More

In English. Soft cover, 24 cm, 214 pp. In the first decades of the 20th century, the cities of the Balkans and Eastern Mediterranean became, to an unprecedented degree, the scene of mass mobilisation, protest and conflict. Rooted in the ongoing social transformation and rapid urbanisation of the region, these phenomena of mass politics articulated the demands of emerging social subjects in the languages of nation and class, which were often peculiarly and inextricably intertwined. With the aim to transcend established constructions of historical space, the present volume brings together twenty-two scholars from several countries to explore a wide range of relevant cases throughout the region and in a variety of settings (the Ottoman imperial, nation-state and colonial) and inquire into the spatial, political and ideological dimensions of the transformation of early twentieth-century Balkan and Eastern Mediterranean societies.
