ARHEOLOGIA TRECERII DE LA EPOCA TÂRZIE A FIERULUI LA EPOCA ROMANĂ ÎN DACIA
Autorii și editorii acestui volum își doresc să contribuie la apropierea unor domenii de cercetare conduse cel mai adesea în România sub forma unor discursuri separate: arheologia epocii târzii a fierului și cea a epocii romane. Acestea tratează însă, chiar dacă din perspective diferite, numeroase teme comune ce ar putea beneficia de pe urma unui schimb mai intens de opinii. Războaiele dintre daci și romani sunt cu adevărat cele mai dramatice și faimoase dintre acestea, dar ele reprezintă doar unul dintre punctele culminante pentru o serie de procese care își au debutul mult mai devreme și se petrec la o scară geografică mai amplă. Crearea provinciei romane Macedonia, ...
The Spectacle of the Body in Late Medieval England
The volume The Spectacle of the Body in Late Medieval England represents a study on the human body representation in medieval England by approaching the concept of the spectacle as a space of manifestation. The author clarifies the ways of understanding the body as a physical and metaphorical reality, but also the medieval conceptualization of violence. On top of that, the author is making an investigation on the violent character of spectacles' representation in pursuit of picturing this subject more clearly and more relevant. The approach of the volume is dominantly Christian reviewing the representations of the body through outstanding figures of Christianity (crucifixion of Jesus Christ, body of Virgin Mary).
Rome
The sweeping story of the city of Rome, told through twenty-two moments that shaped its history. ***A Times History Book of the Year*** 'Vivid, pacey... Superb' The Times. 'Grand narrative underpinned by serious reading' Guardian. 'Confident, elegant... Admirably ambitious' Daily Mail. From Romulus and Remus to the films of Fellini, Rome has always exerted a hold on the world's imagination. Now Ferdinand Addis brings the city of Rome to life by concentrating on vivid episodes from its long and unimaginably rich history. Each beautifully composed chapter is an evocative, self-contained narrative, whether it is the murder of Caesar; the near-destruction of the city by the Gauls in 387 BC; the ...
Central European Pasts
Präsentationsvideo (4. Folge der Reihe 'ÖGE18 Update') Anyone wishing to look beyond the paradigm of Western progress needs to understand how it came into being. In the intellectual culture of the 17th and 18th centuries, the competitive comparison of Ancients and Moderns and their respective relations to civilization and barbarism constituted one of the formative discourses. Yet alternative ideas of time and historicity are encountered not only in cultural contexts outside of Europe but also in the largely forgotten professional knowledge of the Old World: Thomism, Peripatetism, moderate forms of criticism, political theory, and legal practice. This book introduces a broad panorama of such intellectual cultures in Central Europe. It situates theological, historical, and philosophical scholarship in its institutional and epistemological environments: the Church, the Holy Roman Empire, and the emerging Habsburg Monarchy. In doing so, it identifies struggles over competing pasts – Christian, ethnic, legal – as the core of those domains' intellectual development.
