(H/B) SUETONIUS (VOLUME I)
Εκδότης: HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1825-0576

Suetonius (C. Suetonius Tranquillus, born ca. 70 CE), son of a military tribune, was at first an advocate and a teacher of rhetoric, but later became the emperor Hadrian’s private secretary, 119-121. He dedicated to C. Septicius Clarus, prefect of the praetorian guard, his Lives of the Caesars. After the dismissal of both men for some breach of court etiquette, Suetonius apparently retired and probably continued his writing. His other works, many known by title, are now lost except for part of the Lives of Illustrious Men (of letters). Fri...

(P/B) MIND IN SOCIETY
DEVELOPMENT OF HIGHER PSYCHOLOGICAL PROCESSES
Εκδότης: HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1825-0727

The great Russian psychologist L. S. Vygotsky has long been recognized as a pioneer in developmental psychology. But somewhat ironically, his theory of development has never been well understood in the West. Mind in Society should correct much of this misunderstanding. Carefully edited by a group of outstanding Vygotsky scholars, the book presents a unique selection of Vygotsky's important essays, most of which have previously been unavailable in English. The Vygotsky who emerges from these pages can no longer be glibly included among the...

(H/B) DIO CASSIUS: ROMAN HISTORY (VOLUME VIII)
BOOKS 61-70
Εκδότης: HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1825-0150

Dio Cassius (Cassius Dio), ca. 150- 235 CE, was born at Nicaea in Bithynia in Asia Minor. On the death of his father (Roman governor of Cilicia) he went in 180 to Rome, entered the Senate, and under the emperor Commodus was an advocate. He held high offices, becoming a close friend of several emperors. He was made governor of Pergamum and Smyrna; consul in 220; proconsul of Africa; governor of Dalmatia and then of Pannonia; and consul again in 229. Of the eighty books of Dio’s great work Roman History, covering the era from the legendary l...

(H/B) PLATO: REPUBLIC (VOLUME I, BOOKS 1-5)
Εκδότης: HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1825-0502

Plato, the great philosopher of Athens, was born in 427 BCE. In early manhood an admirer of Socrates, he later founded the famous school of philosophy in the grove Academus. Much else recorded of his life is uncertain; that he left Athens for a time after Socrates' execution is probable; that later he went to Cyrene, Egypt, and Sicily is possible; that he was wealthy is likely; that he was critical of 'advanced' democracy is obvious. He lived to be 80 years old. Linguistic tests including those of computer science still try to establish th...

(H/B) PAUSANIAS: DESCRIPTION OF GREECE (VOLUME I)
BOOKS 1-2 ATTICA AND CORINTH
Εκδότης: HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1825-0474

Pausanias, born probably in Lydia in Asia Minor, was a Greek of the 2nd century CE, about 120-180, who travelled widely not only in Asia Minor, Palestine, Egypt and North Africa, but also in Greece and in Italy, including Rome. He left a description of Greece in ten books, which is like a topographical guidebook or tour of Attica, the Peloponnese, and central Greece, filled out with historical accounts and events and digressions on facts and wonders of nature. His chief interest was the monuments of art and architecture, especially the mos...

(H/B) ARISTOPHANES (VOLUME V)
FRAGMENTS
Εκδότης: HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1825-0614

The eleven plays by Aristophanes that have come down to us intact brilliantly illuminate the eventful period spanned by his forty-year career, beginning with the first production in 427 BCE. But the Athenians knew much more of his work: over forty plays by Aristophanes were read in antiquity, of which nearly a thousand fragments survive. These provide a fuller picture of the poet's ever astonishing comic vitality and a wealth of information and insights about his world. Jeffrey Henderson's new, widely acclaimed Loeb edition of Aristophanes...

(H/B) HEALTHY BUILDINGS
HOW INDOOR SPACES CAN MAKE YOU SICK - OR KEEP YOU WELL
Εκδότης: HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1825-0933

For too long we've designed buildings that haven't focused on the people inside-their health, their ability to work effectively, and what that means for the bottom line. An authoritative introduction to a movement whose vital importance is now all too clear, Healthy Buildings breaks down the science and makes a compelling business case for creating healthier offices, schools, and homes. As the COVID-19 crisis brought into sharp focus, indoor spaces can make you sick-or keep you healthy. Fortunately, we now have the know-how and technology ...

(H/B) THE HISTORIES (VOLUME 1)
BOOKS 1-5
Εκδότης: HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1825-0905

Among Greek histories of the fall of Constantinople in 1453, the work of Laonikos (ca. 1430-ca. 1465) has by far the broadest scope. Born to a leading family of Athens under Florentine rule, he was educated in the classics at Mistra by the Neoplatonist philosopher Plethon. In the 1450s, Laonikos set out to imitate Herodotos in writing the history of his times, a version in which the armies of Asia would prevail over the Greeks in Europe. The backbone of the Histories, a text written in difficult Thucydidean Greek, is the expansion of the O...

(H/B) PTOLEMY: TETRABIBLOS
Εκδότης: HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1825-0558

The Tetrabiblos of the famous astronomer and geographer Claudius Ptolemaeus (ca. 100-178 CE) of Egypt consists of four books, the title given in some manuscripts meaning ’Mathematical Treatise in Four Books’, in others ’The Prognostics addressed to Syrus’. The subject is astrology, which in Ptolemy’s time as down to the Renaissance was fused as a respectable science with astronomy. Translations and commentaries are few, and only three Greek texts had been printed (all in the 16th century) before the present one and the one begun by F. Boll...

Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1825-0127

Cicero (Marcus Tullius, 106-43 BCE), Roman lawyer, orator, politician and philosopher, of whom we know more than of any other Roman, lived through the stirring era which saw the rise, dictatorship, and death of Julius Caesar in a tottering republic. In his political speeches especially and in his correspondence we see the excitement, tension and intrigue of politics and the part he played in the turmoil of the time. Of about 106 speeches, delivered before the Roman people or the Senate if they were political, before jurors if judicial, 58 ...

Aristotle, great Greek philosopher, researcher, reasoner, and writer, born at Stagirus in 384 BCE, was the son of Nicomachus, a physician, and Phaestis. He studied under Plato at Athens and taught there (367-347); subsequently he spent three years at the court of a former pupil, Hermeias, in Asia Minor and at this time married Pythias, one of Hermeias's relations. After some time at Mitylene, in 343-2 he was appointed by King Philip of Macedon to be tutor of his teen-aged son Alexander. After Philip's death in 336, Aristotle became head of...

(P/B) THE THIRTY-YEAR GENOCIDE
TURKEY'S DESTRUCTION OF ITS CHRISTIAN MINORITIES, 1894-1924
Εκδότης: HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1825-0927

Between 1894 and 1924, three waves of violence swept across Anatolia, targeting the region's Christian minorities, who had previously accounted for 20 percent of the population. By 1924, the Armenians, Assyrians, and Greeks had been reduced to 2 percent. Most historians have treated these waves as distinct, isolated events, and successive Turkish governments presented them as an unfortunate sequence of accidents. The Thirty-Year Genocide is the first account to show that the three were actually part of a single, continuing, and intentional...

(H/B) SIX DRAWING LESSONS
Εκδότης: HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1825-0851

Over the last three decades, the visual artist William Kentridge has garnered international acclaim for his work across media including drawing, film, sculpture, printmaking, and theater. Rendered in stark contrasts of black and white, his images reflect his native South Africa and, like endlessly suggestive shadows, point to something more elemental as well. Based on the 2012 Charles Eliot Norton Lectures, Six Drawing Lessons is the most comprehensive collection available of Kentridge's thoughts on art, art-making, and the studio. Art, Ke...
