Dans le monde des arts du dernier quart du XIXe siècle, Meijer de Haan (1852-1895) occupe une place à part. Issu d'une famille traditionaliste, élevé au coeur du quartier juif d'Amsterdam, il choisit très tôt la voie artistique, travaillant sur des scènes de genre fortement influencées par Rembrandt et des portraits dont la sensibilité assura son succès. Son départ pour la France en 1888 marque une rupture violente dans sa production. À son arrivée à Paris, il rencontre Théo van Gogh, avec lequel il se noue d'amitié, et par son intermédiaire des artistes tel que Paul Gauguin, qui deviendra très rapidement son maître. En Bretagne du printemps 1888 à l'automne 1890, naîtra, de leur travail en commun, une oeuvre colorée, restreinte mais remarquable. La famille De Haan mit un terme à cette expérience foisonnante. Renonçant à ses rêves de voyage avec Gauguin et à la France, il rentre à Amsterdam, où il meurt prématurément. Son travail tomba dans un relatif oubli, même si certaines oeuvres de la période bretonne furent présentes dans des expositions consacrées à l'école de Pont-Aven ou à l'entourage de Gauguin. Ce trésor enfoui mérite de reprendre aujourd'hui toute sa place dans le patrimoine français comme hollandais

Mithridates VI Eupator, the last king of Pontos, was undoubtedly one of the most prominent figures in the late Hellenistic period. Throughout his long reign (120-63 BC), the political and cultural landscape of Asia Minor and the Black Sea area was reshaped along new lines. The authors present new archaeological research and new interpretations of various aspects of Pontic society, its contacts with the Greek world and its eastern neighbours and investigate the background for the expansion of the Pontic Kingdom that eventually led to the confrontation with Rome.

Eager to be Roman is an important investigation into the ways in which the population of Pontus et Bithynia, a Greek province in the northwestern part of Asia Minor (on the southern shore of the Black Sea), engaged culturally with the Roman Empire. Scholars have long presented Greek provincials as highly attached to their Hellenic background and less affected by Rome's influence than Spaniards, Gauls or Britons. More recent studies have acknowledged that some elements of Roman culture and civic life found their way into Greek communities and that members of the Greek elite obtained Roman citizen rights and posts in the imperial administration, though for purely pragmatic reasons. Drawing on a detailed investigation of literary works and epigraphic evidence, Jesper Madsen demonstrates that Greek intellectuals and members of the local elite in this province were in fact keen to identify themselves as Roman, and that imperial connections and Roman culture were prestigious in the eyes of their Greek readers and fellow-citizens.--Book jacket.

Machiavelli praised his military genius. European royalty sought out his secret elixir against poison. His life inspired Mozart's first opera, while for centuries poets and playwrights recited bloody, romantic tales of his victories, defeats, intrigues, concubines, and mysterious death. But until now no modern historian has recounted the full story of Mithradates, the ruthless king and visionary rebel who challenged the power of Rome in the first century BC. In this richly illustrated book--the first biography of Mithradates in fifty years--Adrienne Mayor combines a storyteller's gifts with the most recent archaeological and scientific discoveries to tell the tale of Mithradates as it has never been told before. The Poison King describes a life brimming with spectacle and excitement. Claiming Alexander the Great and Darius of Persia as ancestors, Mithradates inherited a wealthy Black Sea kingdom at age fourteen after his mother poisoned his father. He fled into exile and returned in triumph to become a ruler of superb intelligence and fierce ambition. Hailed as a savior by his followers and feared as a second Hannibal by his enemies, he envisioned a grand Eastern empire to rival Rome. After massacring eighty thousand Roman citizens in 88 BC, he seized Greece and modern-day Turkey. Fighting some of the most spectacular battles in ancient history, he dragged Rome into a long round of wars and threatened to invade Italy itself. His uncanny ability to elude capture and surge back after devastating losses unnerved the Romans, while his mastery of poisons allowed him to foil assassination attempts and eliminate rivals. The Poison King is a gripping account of one of Rome's most relentless but least understood foes.Some images inside the book are unavailable due to digital copyright restrictions.
