Religion and Cult in the Dodecanese during the First Millennium BC
This volume publishes the proceedings of the conference of the same name, held in Rhodes in October 2018. Contributions draw on archaeological and literary sources to explore both the development and continuity of cults in the Dodecanese, from the Early Iron Age through to the 1st century BC.
The Woman in the Pith Helmet
This volume celebrates the career of Norma Franklin, an archaeologist who has made important contributions to our understanding of the three key cities of Samaria, Megiddo, and Jezreel in the Northern Kingdom of Israel during the Iron Age. The sixteen essays offered herein by Franklin's colleagues in archaeology and biblical studies are a fitting tribute to the woman in the pith helmet: an indomitable field archaeologist who describes herself as "happiest with complex stratigraphy" and dedicated to "killing sacred cows."
Nostoi
A comprehensive volume with papers discussing various aspects of the intercultural contact between West Anatolia and the Aegean during the Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age. The conference proceedings focus on the various Anatolian and Aegean cross-cultural "interfaces," the archaeological testimonies of the "indigenous" population, the impact of the Hittite, Mycenaean and Ionian migration movements on the pre-existing population, as well as the inter-cultural and cross-cultural mingling of the Aegean and Anatolia.
Analyse et exploitation des timbres amphoriques grecs
Se comptant par centaines de milliers et diffusés dans tout le monde antique, les timbres amphoriques constituent une source de première importance pour l'archéologue comme pour l'historien. Au-delà de l'intérêt qu'ils représentent pour la chronologie et l'étude du commerce antique, ils ouvrent en effet des perspectives originales sur l'organisation politique, économique et sociale des cités grecques, ou encore sur leur vie religieuse et artistique. Avec le soutien de l'université Rennes 2 et l'EA 1279 – Histoire et critique des arts.
Staging Holiness
"In Staging Holiness. The Case of Hospitaller Rhodes (ca. 1309-1522) Sofia Zoitou offers a study of the history of relic collections, devotional rituals and sites invested with special meaning in Rhodes, during a time when the island became one of the most frequented ports of call for ships carrying pilgrims from Venice to the Holy Land. Scrutinizing late medieval travel reports by pilgrims from all over Europe along with extant historical, archaeological, visual and material evidence, Sofia Zoitou traces the various forms of the Rhodian cultic sites' evolution and perception, ultimately considered as an overall artistic strategy for the staging of the sacred"--
Understanding and Teaching the Intuitive Mind
The intuitive mind is a powerful force in the classroom and often an undetected one. Intuitive conceptions--knowledge or knowledge-structures that individuals acquire and use largely without conscious reflection or explicit instruction--sometimes work to facilitate learning in the classroom and other contexts. But learning may also be impeded by intuitive conceptions, and they can be difficult to dislodge as needed. The literatures in psychology and education include a large and diverse body of theory and research on intuitive conceptions, but this work is limited in some respects. This volume contributes in four ways to overcome these limitations. Understanding and Teaching the Intuitive Mi...

Connection to Nature, Deep Ecology, and Conservation Social Science
In Connection to Nature, Deep Ecology, and Conservation Social Science: Human-Nature Bonding and Protecting the Natural World , Christian Diehm analyzes the relevance of the philosophy of deep ecology to contemporary discussions of human-nature connectedness. Focusing on deep ecologists’ notion of “identification” with nature, Diehm argues that deep ecological theory is less conceptually problematic than is sometimes thought, and offers valuable insights into what a sense of connection to nature entails, what its attitudinal and behavioral effects might be, and how it might be nurtured and developed. This book is closely informed by, and engages at length with, conservation social scie...
