Die 1954 unter dem Namen Le Messager Suisse de Paris gegründete Zeitschrift wurde zuerst in Le Messager Suisse de France und darauf in Le Messager Suisse umbenannt, bevor sie den Namen Suisse magazine erhielt. Die Zeitschrift wurde zunächst von ihrer Gründerin Elsa Franconi Poretti, dann von Nelly Silvagni-Schenk, der Pariser Korrespondentin des Schweizer Ringier Verlags, und danach von Pierre Jonneret, dem damaligen Präsidenten der Fédération des Sociétés Suisses de Paris FSSP, geleitet. Seit 1999 untersteht sie der Leitung von Philippe Aliaume, dem ehemaligen Präsidenten der Groupe d'Etudes Helvétiques de Paris sowie der Association Franco-Suisse des Centraliens. Nach dem Vorbild des Suisse magazine entstand die Schweizer Revue, die Zeitschrift für Auslandschweizer. Diese wurde vom Suisse magazine herausgegeben und in der französischsprachigen Welt verbreitet. Mit zunehmenden finanziellen Mitteln des Bundes für die Schweizer Revue, konnte sich diese vom Suisse magazine lossagen und wurde dadurch in gewisser Weise zur Konkurrentin. Das Suisse magazine lebte seit jeher ausschliesslich von Abonnements, Werbung und privaten Mitteln. Im November 2016 wurde ihr Erscheinen eingestellt. Als letzter Überlebender der unabhängigen Schweizer Presse im Ausland, wollte das Suisse magazine politisch neutral sein. Es gab jeder Partei, die dies wünschte, eine Stimme, und zwar nach dem Prinzip des Pluralismus. Das Suisse magazine bezog bei kontroversen Diskussionen stets Stellung zur Verteidigung der Schweiz (Bankgeheimnis, jüdische Gelder, Armee usw.). Es behandelte jedes Thema, soweit es einen Bezug zu den französisch-schweizerischen Beziehungen oder zum Leben von Schweizern im Ausland hatte. Das Suisse Magazine richtete sich an die gesamte französischsprachige Welt, mit Abonnenten unter anderem in Belgien, der Schweiz, Kanada, Ozeanien, Afrika und Asien. Das Suisse magazine erschien je nach Zeitraum monatlich oder zweimonatlich und veröffentlichte während mehr als sechs Jahrzehnten fast 20'000 Seiten. Diese beinhalten einen reichen enzyklopädischen sowie ikonographischen Fundus zu Tourismus, Geschichte, Literatur und wichtigen aktuellen Ereignissen in der Schweiz. Die meisten der hier präsentierten Ausgaben können in der Original-Papierversion unter www.suissemagazine.com bezogen werden, solange der Vorrat reicht.

The sixth volume in the Institute of Classical Archaeology’s series on the rural countryside (chora) of Metaponto is a study of the Greek settlement at Sant’Angelo Vecchio. Located on a slope overlooking the Basento River, the site illustrates the extraordinary variety of settlements and uses of the territory from prehistory through the current day. Excavators brought to light a Late Archaic farmhouse, evidence of a sanctuary near a spring, and a cluster of eight burials of the mid-fifth century BC, but the most impressive remains belong to a production area with kilns. Active in the Hellenistic, Late Republican, and Early Imperial periods, these kilns illuminate important and lesser-known features of production in the chora of a Greek city and also chronicle the occupation of the territory in these periods. The thorough, diachronic presentation of the evidence from Sant’Angelo Vecchio is complemented by specialist studies on the environment, landscape, and artifacts, which date from prehistory to the post-medieval period. Significantly, the evidence spans the range of Greek site types (farmhouse, necropolis, sanctuary, and production center) as well as the Greek dates (from the Archaic to Early Imperial periods) highlighted during ICA’s survey of the Metapontine chora. In this regard, Chora 6 enhances the four volumes of The Chora of Metaponto 3: Archaeological Field Survey—Bradano to Basento and provides further insight into how sites in the chora interacted throughout its history.

Brook Farm, Oneida, Amana, and Nauvoo are familiar names in American history. Far less familiar are New Odessa, Bethlehem-Jehudah, Cotopaxi, and Alliance-the Brook Farms and Oneidas of the Jewish people in North America. The wealthy, westernized leaders of late nineteenth-century American Jewry and a member of the immigrating Russian Jews shared an eagerness to "repeal" the lengthy socioeconomic history in which European Jews were confined to petty commerce and denied agricultural experience. A small group of immigrant Jews chose to ignore urbanization and industrialization, defy the depression afflicting agriculture in the late 1800s, and devote themselves to experiments in collective farming in America. Some of these idealists were pious; others were agnostics or atheists. Some had the support of American and West European philanthropists; others were willing to go it alone. But in the farming colonies they founded in Oregon, Colorado, the Dakotas, Michigan, Louisiana, Arkansas, Virginia, and New Jersey, among other places, they were sublimely indifferent to the need for careful planning and thus had limited success. Only in New Jersey, close to markets and supporters in New York and Philadelphia, were colonization efforts combined with agro-industrial enterprises; consequently, these colonies were able to survive for as long as one generation.

"This volume in the Institute of Classical Archaeology's series on rural settlements in the countryside (chora) of Metaponto is a study of the fourth-century BC farmhouse known as Fattoria Fabrizio, located in the heart of the surveyed chora in the Venella valley (at Ponte Fabrizio). This simple structure richly illustrates the life of fourth-century BC Metapontine farmers of modest means. Thorough interpretations of the farmhouse structure in its wider historical and socioeconomic contexts are accompanied by comprehensive analyses of the archaeological finds. Among them is detailed evidence for the family cult, a rare archaeological contribution to the study of Greek religion in Magna Grecia. The entire range of local Greek ceramics has been studied, along with a limited number of imports. Together they reveal networks within the chora and trade beyond it, involving indigenous peoples of southern Italy, mainland Greeks, and the wider Mediterranean world. Along with the studies of traditional archaeological finds, archaeobotanical analyses have illuminated the rural economy of the farmhouse and the environment of the adjacent chora. Abundant Archaic pottery also documents an important occupation, during the first great flowering of the chora in the sixth century BC. This study provides an ideal complement to the four volumes of The Chora of Metaponto 3: Archaeological Field Survey; Bradano to Basento and an eloquent example of hundreds of farmhouses of this date identified throughout the chora by their surface remains alone"--

Epp's writings reveal a skilled and honest diarist of deep feelings, and tell a human story that no conventional historical account could hope to equal.
