(P/B) THE MUSICALIZATION OF FICTION
A STUDY IN THE THEORY AND HISTORY OF INTERMEDIALITY
Εκδότης: BRILL
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0657-0149

This volume is a pioneering study in the theory and history of the imitation of music in fiction and constitutes an important contribution to current intermediality research. Starting with a comparison of basic similarities and differences between literature and music, the study goes on to provide outlines of a general theory of intermediality and its fundamental forms, in which a more specialized theory of the musicalization of (narrative) literature based on contemporary narratology and a typology of the forms of musico-literary intermed...

(H/B) THE CONTINENTAL SHELF BEYOND 200 NAUTICAL MILES
DELINEATION, DELIMITATION AND DISPUTE SETTLEMENT
Εκδότης: BRILL
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0657-0147

In The Continental Shelf Beyond 200 Nautical Miles, Bjarni Mar Magnusson explores various aspects of the establishment of the outer limits of the continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles and maritime boundary delimitations. Special emphasis is laid on the interplay between these processes and the role of coastal States, the Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf and international courts and tribunals in this regard. Magnusson convincingly argues that despite the possibility for tension to arise the relationship between the re...

(P/B) INTERPRETARIO ETRUSCA
GREEK MYTHS ON ETRUSCAN MIRRORS
Εκδότης: BRILL
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0657-0064

This is the first book in which special atten-tion is paid to the Etruscan interpretation of Greek mythical representations on Etruscan bronze mirrors. The book focuses on representations with inscriptions (c. 480-250 B.C.). These epigraphic scenes raise many questions. Did the engravers and patrons understand Greek myths? Were the engravers inspired by visual, oral or literary sources or by a combination thereof? What was their modus operandi? In which art forms can visual precedents be found? Introductory chapters shed light on the statu...

(H/B) CHINA ON THE SEA
HOW THE MARITIME WORLD SHAPED MODERN CHINA
Εκδότης: BRILL
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0657-0146

Generations of Chinese scholars have made China synonymous with the Great Wall and presented its civilization as fundamentally land-bound. This volume challenges this perspective, demonstrating that China was not a "Walled Kingdom", certainly not since the Yongjia Disturbance in 311. China reached out to the maritime world far more actively than historians have acknowledged, while the seas and what came from the seas - from Islam, fragrances and Jesuits to maize, opium and clocks - significantly changed the course of history, and have been...

(H/B) THE JOURNEY OF MAPS AND IMAGES ON THE SILK ROAD
Εκδότης: BRILL
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0657-0120

This book covers new ground on the diffusion and transmission of geographical knowledge that occurred at critical junctures in the long history of the Silk Road. Much of twentieth-century scholarship on the Silk Road examined the ancient archaeological objects and medieval historical records found within each cultural area, while the consequences of long-distance interaction across Eurasia remained poorly studied. Here ample attention is given to the journeys that notions and objects undertook to transmit spatial values to other civilizati...

(H/B) ECOLOGIES AND ECONOMIES IN MEDIEVAL AND EARLY MODERN EUROPE
STUDIES IN ENVIRONMENTAL HISTORY FOR RICHARD C. HOFFMANN
Εκδότης: BRILL
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0657-0144

The field of premodern environmental history (the study of the complex and ever-changing interrelationship between human beings and the world around them prior to the Industrial Revolution) has grown vigorously over the past two decades, in no small part due to the energy and expertise of Richard C. Hoffmann (York University, Canada). In this collection, historians of medieval and early modern Europe and social scientists with a sensitivity to the use of historical information present their current research in honor of Richard C. Hoffmann'...

Εκδότης: BRILL

They address the topic of herbal medicines and their multifaceted applications within traditional Yemeni society across boundaries of disciplines, such as Islamic studies, history, social ...

(H/B) THE ARGUMENT OF PSELLOS' CHRONOGRAPHIA
Εκδότης: BRILL
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0657-0142

This book is a philosophical interpretation of Michael Psellos' Chronographia, an acknowledged masterpiece of Byzantine literature. Anthony Kaldellis argues that although the Chronographia contains a fascinating historical narrative; it is really a disguised philosophical work which, if read carefully, reveals Psellos' revolutionary views on politics and religion. Kaldellis exposes the rhetorical techniques with which Psellos veils his unorthodoxy, and demonstrates that the inner message of the text challenges the Church's supremacy over t...

(H/B) ETYMOLOGICAL DICTIONARY OF GREEK (2-VOLUME SET)
Εκδότης: BRILL
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0657-0140

A must-have research tool that should be on every classicist's desk. The first comprehensive etymological dictionary of Greek in the English language. Greek is among the most intensely and widely studied languages known. Since the publication of the last etymological dictionary of Greek, both the reconstruction of Proto-Indo-European, and our knowledge of the Greek substrate have led to numerous, often surprising new insights into the history and formation of the Greek vocabulary. This dictionary is a treasure trove covering 2000 years of...

(H/B) THE GATTILUSIO LORDSHIPS AND THE AEGEAN WORLD, 1355-1462
Εκδότης: BRILL
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0657-0139

In The Gattilusio Lordships and the Aegean World 1355-1462, Christopher Wright offers a window into the culturally and politically diverse late medieval Aegean. The overlapping influences of the contrasting networks of power at work in the region are explored through the history of one of many small and distinctive political units that flourished in this fragmented environment, the lordships of the Gattilusio family, centred on Lesbos. Though Genoese in origin, they owed their position to Byzantine authority. Though active in crusading, th...

A FOUNDATION FOR LITERARY STUDY
Εκδότης: BRILL
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0657-0137

Lausberg's Handbook of Literary Rhetoric, here made available for the first time in English, received high critical acclaim on its first publication in 1963.

Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0657-0136

Featuring eight innovative studies by prominent scholars of medieval art and architecture, this special issue of Medieval Encounters examines the specific means by which art and architectural forms, techniques, and ideas were transmitted throughout the medieval world (ca. 1000-1500). While focusing on the Mediterranean region, the collection also includes essays that expand this geographic zone into a cultural and artistic one by demonstrating contact with near and distant neighbors, thereby allowing an expanded understanding of the interc...

(H/B) BYZANTINE EPIRUS
A TOPOGRAPHY OF TRANSFORMATION. SETTLEMENTS OF THE SEVENTH-TWELFTH CENTURIES IN SOUTHERN EPIRUS AND AETOLOACARNANIA, GREECE
Εκδότης: BRILL
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0657-0135

Much of the past twenty years of scholarship on late-antique and medieval landscapes and settlement has introduced theoretical patterns reflecting meta-narratives of evolution and transition. This book draws on 5 years of archaeological and topographical fieldwork in order to attempt a rereading of Byzantine texts in accordance with recent perceptions of the historicity of space. The result is a fresh interpretation of settlement in Western Greece (Southern Epirus and Aetoloacarnania) from 600 to 1200 AD, springing from a postmodern theore...

Εκδότης: BRILL
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0657-0134

In sixteen essays authors explore the dramatic rise in the efficiency of European shipping in the three centuries before the Industrial Revolution. They offer reasons for the greater success of the sector than any other in making better use of labor. They describe the roots - political, organizational, technological, ecological, human - of rising productivity, treating those sources both theoretically and empirically. Comparisons with China show why Europeans came to dominate Asian waters. Building on past research, the volume is a stateme...

THE ANCIENT NEAR EAST (2500-330 BCE)
Εκδότης: BRILL
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0657-0132

This book offers a unique survey of legal practices and ideas relating to international relations in the Ancient Near East between 2500 and 330 BCE. Rather than entering into the debate on the continuous development of international law in Antiquity, the book discloses a vast amount of textual material from the Ancient Near East which sheds light on the legal regulation and organization of international relations in different epochs of pre-classical Antiquity. The book is a treasure trove of information for the historian of international l...
