Abstract

The English architect and archaeologist Edward Falkener (1814-96) spent a fortnight sketching the ancient ruins of Ephesus during his trip through Anatolia in the 1840s. In Part I of this 1862 publication, he tries to reconstruct the architectural features of Ephesian buildings, tracing the history of the city. Falkener's accomplished sketches and layouts display his artistic talent, which won him the grand medal of honour at the Paris Universal Exhibition in 1855. Part II focuses on the Temple of Artemis, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. Falkener surveys ancient writings relating to the Greek temple, which still awaited rediscovery at that time. Although his speculations about the location of the temple were later proven wrong by John Turtle Wood, who correctly identified the site in 1869 (his 1877 account is also reissued in this series), Falkener's work added to the Victorian interest in ancient architecture.

Abstract

In 1863, the English architect John Turtle Wood (1821-90) resigned from a railway development project in western Turkey to begin his search at Ephesus for the Temple of Artemis, lost from view since the middle ages. In the first part of this well-illustrated 1877 publication, Wood describes the city and the initial excavations carried out with support from the British Museum. This survey of various structures concludes with Wood's work at the great theatre, where he found the Greek inscription that helped direct him to the correct location of the temple in 1869. Part II focuses on the exhausting four years that Wood spent excavating the temple, which was buried under many layers of sand. The appendix presents Greek and Latin inscriptions, with facing-page translations, from various Ephesian sites. Also reissued in this series, Edward Falkener's Ephesus (1862) includes a review of references to the temple in ancient writings.

Abstract

"Der vorliegende Band ist den in Ephesos gefundenen, aus Stein gefertigten Hermen und ihrer kunsthistorischen Betrachtung gewidmet. Neben der vollständigen Katalogisierung des Bestands bildet die typologische Einordnung der einzelnen Hermen, die sowohl im privaten als auch im öffentlichen Ambiente anzutreffen sind, das Kernstück. Hierzu werden in einem ausführlichen analytischen Teil die Ikonografie sowie die Zuweisung zu einem bestimmten Typus oder einem Bildmotiv diskutiert. Datierungen erfolgen wegen oft unbekannter Fundzusammenhänge meist auf Basis stilistischer Vergleiche oder handwerklicher Details. Neben der Interpretation der Hermen vom Nymphaeum Traiani als Planetenbalustrade gibt die Autorin mit der Einstufung der Hermentypen Ephesos und Curtius C als neuattische Konzeptionen Impulse für den weiteren wissenschaftlichen Diskurs. Darüber hinaus ergänzen umfassende Recherchen zu Teilaspekten der Hermenforschung die auf Ephesos fokussierte Materialvorlage, die Georg A. Plattner und Ursula Quatember durch ihre Expertisen auf den Gebieten der Architekturdekoration und Bauforschung bereichern."-- Back cover.

Abstract

Twice Neokoros is a case study of the Cult of the Sebastoi that was established in the city of Ephesus by the province of Asia during the late first century C.E. Epigraphic and numismatic data indicate that the Cult of the Sebastoi was dedicated in 89/90 to the Flavian imperial family. The architecture, sculpture, municipal titles, and urban setting of the cult all reflect Asian religious traditions. The image of Ephesus was significantly altered by the use of these traditions in the institutions related to the Cult of the Sebastoi. Within the context of the history of provincial cults in the Roman Empire, the Cult of the Sebastoi became a turning point in the rhetoric of social order. Thus, the Cult of the Sebastoi served as a prototypical manifestation of socio-religious developments during the late first and early second century in the Eastern Mediterranean.
