Le Corps dans le roman des écrivaines syriennes contemporaines
Le Corps dans le roman des écrivaines syriennes contemporaines, de Martina Censi, explore les représentations du corps dans un corpus de romans en arabe publiés (entre 2004 et 2011) par six écrivaines syriennes.

Roman Conquests
This book gives a clear narrative of the course of the Roman wars against the Seleucid Empire while conquering Greece and Macedonia, explaining how the Roman war machine coped with new foes and the challenges of unfamiliar terrain and climate. This volume draws on original research into the battlefield of Magnesia.
The Palmyrenes of Dura-Europos
This volume deals with the religion of Palmyrenes in Dura-Europos during the first three centuries of the Common Era, and focuses upon the religious interaction between this migrant community and their new residence. By studying the religious interaction of distinct groups on a local level, this study aims to contribute to a better understanding of the process of religious development and change in Syria during the Roman period. Information on the Palmyrenes of Dura-Europos consists primarily of archaeological remains that have been found there. The Palmyrene materials from Dura-Europos have never been published collectively, and for this reason they are enumerated and re-evaluated in the appendix. The book is richly illustrated with 20 figures and 22 plates.
Sculptures from Roman Syria II

The text portion describes nearly all monuments in detail and classifies them in the context of the history of ancient sculpture. The associated volume of plates documents every item in detail, typically with four photographic views.
