Abstract

« La religion grecque est un ensemble de pratiques et de croyances qui se structurent alors que naît, vers la fin du VIIe siècle av. J.-C., l'organisation politique typique du monde grec : la cité (polis). Elle repose sur des habitudes de pensée et des schémas intellectuels fort différents des nôtres. Pour les comprendre, on examine d'abord comment les croyances et les rites s'exprimaient dans la pratique du citoyen. Quels étaient le personnel religieux et la place de la religion dans la vie individuelle, sociale et politique? Au-delà de l'individualité de chaque cité, l'étude des sanctuaires les plus prestigieux montre l'importance des cultes communs à tous les Grecs. L'analyse des mythes fondamentaux, des grandes figures divines et de leurs relations permet de saisir ce qu'est une mythologie pour les Grecs. »-- Page 4 de la couverture.

Abstract

"One of the most fascinating topics in the study of ancient art concerns artistic practices and models and the means of transmission of iconographic designs and decorative compositions. This phenomenon, although well known, has not drawn much attention of scholars of the ancient art. Apart from copies of originals, the practice dates back to the first civilizations and may be even older. The media used could be painted vignettes on papyri, paint on leather, or sketches painted on ostraca, used as pattern books. This issue is practically unheard of regarding ancient Greece, although a few media have been found which may have facilitated the transmission of iconographic designs and decorative compositions. In this study we present some examples that suggest the existence of pattern books in the Greek world. If the media used in the Greek world are insofar unknown, the same cannot be said of the Roman world. Written sources mention the existence of manuals in the form of papyrus scrolls (stemmata, imagines) which served as models as well as inspiration for the artists."--Back cover.

Abstract

Ailianos, der wegen seiner schönen Sprache schon von Zeitgenossen im 3. Jahrhundert n. Chr. als "Honigzunge" gepriesen wurde, legt uns eine Sammlung bunter Nachrichten vor. Dank seiner Vermischten Forschung sind viele sonst verlorene literarische Textstücke erhalten, vor allem aber bezaubernde Naturschilderungen, kulturhistorische Schlaglichter, amüsante Anekdoten und kuriose Geschichten aus der ganzen Antike. Ailianos, who was praised by his contemporaries in the 3rd century AD as "honey-tongued" because of his beautiful language, presents us with a collection of colourful news. His Various Research preserves many fragments of literary texts which are otherwise lost, and above all charming descriptions of nature, cultural highlights, amusing anecdotes and curious stories from the whole of the classical world.

Abstract

Hesychius' 5th(?)-century Greek lexicon is a very important survivor of ancient learning, including fragments of Greek literature and offering material, not yet fully evaluated, on patristic writings. The final critical edition was begun by Kurt Latte (Vol. 1, 1953 and Vol. 2, 1966, Copenhagen: Munksgaard; now out of print) and continued by Hansen and Cunningham (SGLG 11/3 and 11/4, 2005 and 2010). This revised edition of vol. 1 provides a more complete record of the readings of the unique manuscript, cites parallels from related works in the current editions, and takes account of the scholarship of the intervening years. A revised edition of the second Latte volume (to be SGLG 11/2) and a volume of indexes and addenda (to be SGLG 11/5) are planned.

Abstract

This is the second volume of the first fully-fledged English translation of the works of Archimedes - antiquity's greatest scientist and one of the most important scientific figures in history. It covers On Spirals and is based on a reconsideration of the Greek text and diagrams, now made possible through new discoveries from the Archimedes Palimpsest. On Spirals is one of Archimedes' most dazzling geometrical tours de force, suggesting a manner of 'squaring the circle' and, along the way, introducing the attractive geometrical object of the spiral. The form of argument, no less than the results themselves, is striking, and Reviel Netz contributes extensive and insightful comments that focus on Archimedes' scientific style, making this volume indispensable for scholars of classics and the history of science, and of great interest for the scientists and mathematicians of today.
