Abstract

More than three decades have passed since David Sear published Greek Coins & Their Values, his revision of Gilbert Askew’s A Catalogue of Greek Coins published by B. A. Seaby in 1951. Since then, the field of ancient numismatics and the hobby of collecting ancient coins have changed so much that now Greek Coins & Their Values would require a complete revision to include all of the most current numismatic information available, list the many new types and varieties unknown to Sear, and determine an approximate sense of rarity for all of these issues. In order to encompass this new material and create a viable reference for the beginning and specialized collector, such a handbook would have to be more than the two volumes which Sear found necessary. As a result, Classical Numismatic Group is publishing The Handbook of Greek Coinage Series, written by Oliver D. Hoover, in a series of 13 volumes, each covering a specified area of Greek coinage with the first being The Handbook of Syrian Coins: Royal and Civic Issues, Fourth to First Centuries BC (Volume 9 in the series). This series is designed to aid the user in the quick, accurate, and relatively painless identification of Greek coins, while providing a cross-reference for each entry to a major work, which will allow the inquirer to pursue more in-depth research on the subject. The subject-matter of each volume is arranged chronologically for royal issues, and regionally for the civic issues; within each region, cities are listed directionally, depending on the region. For those rulers or cities that issued coins concurrently in all three metals, these issues will be arranged in the catalog with gold first, followed by silver, and then bronze; each metal is arranged by denomination, largest to smallest. Known mints for the royal coinage are listed below the appropriate type, making an easy search for a specific mint. Each entry will include a rarity rating based on the frequency with which they appear in publications, public and private collections, the market, and/or are estimated to exist in public or private hands. No valuations are listed, since such values are generally out of date by the time of publication. An online valuation guide at www.greekcoinvalues.com will allowing interested individuals the opportunity to gauge the market, and reduce the need for repeated updates of this series. Whether one purchases the entire set for their reference library, or the individual volume pertaining to one’s area of specialization, The Handbook of Greek Coinage Series should provide a useful staging-point from which collectors and interested scholars can pursue their research and interests.

Abstract

In de stripserie Alex zijn vele delen verschenen, waarbij steeds opvalt hoe goed gedocumenteerd Alex' schepper Jacques Martin te werk gaat. Hier gaat het om een heruitgave van een deel in de begeleidende reeks: 'De reizen van Alex'. Zoals de andere delen bestaat ook dit deel uit drie onderdelen: reconstructietekeningen, foto's en begeleidende tekst. Dit deel staat echter enigszins op zichzelf, aansluitend bij de actualiteit van de Olympische Spelen. Een uitgebreid overzicht wordt gegeven van de antieke Olympische Spelen in hun historische ontwikkeling. Niet alleen de gebouwen van Olympia worden besproken, maar ook de verschillende onderdelen van de spelen zelf. Dankzij de vele reconstructietekeningen krijgt men niet alleen een indruk van de pracht van het oude Olympia, maar ook van de verschillende vormen van sport. Omdat men in het oude Griekenland naakt sport beoefende, is er veel mannelijk naakt in dit album te zien. Niet alleen interessant voor de fans van Alex of voor belangstellenden in de Oudheid, maar ook voor geïnteresseerden in de geschiedenis van de sport. Vanaf ca. 14 jaar.

Abstract

Grabinschriften erlauben einen einmaligen Einblick in die Glaubenswelt des Menschen. Anhand von 64 Inschriften aus dem Mittelmeerraum rekonstruiert diese Studie den Unsterblichkeitsglauben der griechischsprachigen Menschen der Antike. Die Inschriften stammen aus der Zeit vom 5. Jh. v. Chr. bis in das 5. Jh. n. Chr. Analysiert werden die in den Grabinschriften verwendeten Bilder, wobei sich verschiedene Bestandteile des Unsterblichkeitsglaubens herauskristallisieren: der Träger der Unsterblichkeit, der Ort, an dem man die Unsterblichkeit erlebt, sowie die dort verrichteten Tätigkeiten. Vor diesem Hintergrund lässt sich zudem eine Seelenlehre der Grabinschriften zeichnen. Die Studie zeigt, dass jeder einzelne Bestandteil des Glaubens sowohl im dies- als auch im jenseitigen Bereich erlebt werden konnte. Das Gesamtbild des Unsterblichkeitskonzepts weist jedoch beträchtliche Inkonsequenzen auf: So kann der Verstorbene mit dem schwindenden Atem identifiziert werden, verrichtet jedoch im Jenseits den Göttern einen ewigen Dienst. Die Inschriften geben demnach ein Zeugnis für die so oft inkohärenten Vorstellungen einer populären Religiosität, die jedoch von literarischen Topoi und philosophischen Einflüssen geprägt ist.

Abstract

A wide examination of the ways in which the Greeks constructed, de-constructed, engaged with and relied on their pasts. This volume in The Edinburgh Leventis Studies series collects the papers presented at the sixth A. G. Leventis conference organised under the auspices of the Department of Classics at the University of Edinburgh. As with earlier volumes, it engages with new research and new approaches to the Greek past, and brings the fruits of that research to a wider audience. Although Greek historians were fundamental in the enterprise of preserving the memory of great deeds in antiquity,
