【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】＜p＞＜em＞Ancient Maya Commerce＜/em＞ presents nearly two decades of multidisciplinary research at Chunchucmil, Yucatan, Mexicoーa thriving Classic period Maya center organized around commercial exchange rather than agriculture. An urban center without a king and unable to sustain agrarian independence, Chunchucmil is a rare example of a Maya city in which economics, not political rituals, served as the engine of growth. Trade was the raison d’?tre of the city itself.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Using a variety of evidenceーarchaeological, botanical, geomorphological, and soil-basedーcontributors show how the city was a major center for both short- and long-distance trade, integrating the Guatemalan highlands, the Gulf of Mexico, and the interior of the northern Maya lowlands. By placing Chunchucmil into the broader context of emerging research at other Maya cities, the book reorients the understanding of ancient Maya economies. The book is acc...

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】＜p＞In ancient times, the series of waterways now known as the Turkish Straits, comprising the Dardanelles (or Hellespont), Sea of Marmara and the Bosporus, formed both a divide and a bridge between Europe and Asia. Its western and eastern entrances were guarded, at different times, by two of themost fabled cities of all time: respectively Troy (in Asia) and Byzantion (or Byzantium, on the European coast). The narrow crossing points at the Hellespont and Bosporus were strategically important invasion routes while the waters themselves were vital routes of travel and commerce, particularly the supply of grain from the hinterland of the Black Sea to the Greek cities. This made them sought after prizes and sources of friction between successive empires, Persians, Macedonians and Romans among them, and ensured they were associated with some of the great names of history, from Odysseus toXerxes, Alexander to Constantine the Great. ...

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】＜p＞Paul A. Cantor first probed Shakespeare's Roman playsー ＜em＞Coriolanus, Julius Caeser,＜/em＞ and ＜em＞Antony and Cleopatra＜/em＞ーin his landmark ＜em＞Shakespeare's Rome＜/em＞ (1976). With ＜em＞Shakespeare's Roman Trilogy＜/em＞, he now argues that these plays form an integrated trilogy that portrays the tragedy not simply of their protagonists but of an entire political community.＜br /＞ Cantor analyzes the way Shakespeare chronicles the rise and fall of the Roman Republic and the emergence of the Roman Empire. The transformation of the ancient city into a cosmopolitan empire marks the end of the era of civic virtue in antiquity, but it also opens up new spiritual possibilities that Shakespeare correlates with the rise of Christianity and thus the first stirrings of the medieval and the modern worlds.＜br /＞ More broadly, Cantor places Shakespeare's plays in a long tradition of philosophical speculation about Rome...

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】＜p＞In ＜em＞Friendship＜/em＞, Italian philosopher Claudia Baracchi explores the philosophical underpinnings of friendship. Tackling the issue of friendship in the era of Facebook and online social networks requires courage and even a certain impertinence. The friendship relationship involves trust, fidelity, and availability for profound sharing. Sociologists assure us this attitude was never more improbable than in our time of dramatic anthropological reconfiguration. Research on friendship cannot therefore ignore ancient thought: with unparalleled depth, ＜em＞Friendship＜/em＞ examines the broader implications of relationship, both emotional and political.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Today, the grand socio-political structures of the world are trembling. The hold of valued paradigms that traditionally positioned individuals, determined their destinies, and assigned them their roles and reciprocal responsibilities is becoming uncertain. In...

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】＜p＞Gladiators and Beasthunts is a comprehensive survey of arena sports in ancient Rome, focusing upon gladiatorial combat and the beast-hunts (venationes). Whilst numerous books have already been written on arena spectacles in ancient Rome, they generally neglect the venationes, despite the factthat the beast-hunts, in which men were pitted in mortal combat against various dangerous wild animals (including lions, tigers, elephants and rhinos), were almost as popular as gladiatorial spectacles and were staged over a longer period of time. Dr Christopher Epplett, gives a full and detailed treatment of both types of spectacle. The author starts by explaining the origins of these bloody combat sports in the late Roman Republic, before surveying the growth of these events during the first two centuries of the Empire, when emperors possessed the resources to stage arena spectacles on an unmatched scale. The details of the training,...

Each has been termed the greatest military leader of the ancient world, but who actually was the best?＜/p＞ ＜p＞In this book Dr Simon Elliott first establishes a set of criteria by which to judge the strategic and tactical genius of both. He then considers both in turn in brand-new, up-to-date military biographies, starting with Alexander, undefeated in battle and conqueror of the largest empire the world had seen by the age of 26. Next Caesar, the man who played the crucial role in expanding Roman territory to the size which would later emerg...

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】＜p＞For centuries, Jews have been known as the "people of the book." It is commonly thought that Judaism in the first several centuries CE found meaning exclusively in textual sources. But there is another approach to meaning to be found in ancient Judaism, one that sees it in the natural world and derives it from visual clues rather than textual ones. According to this conception, God embedded hidden signs in the world that could be read by human beings and interpreted according to complex systems.＜br /＞ In exploring the diverse functions of signs outside of the realm of the written word, Swartz introduces unfamiliar sources and motifs from the formative age of Judaism, including magical and divination texts and new interpretations of legends and midrashim from classical rabbinic literature. He shows us how ancient Jews perceived these signs and read them, elaborating on their use of divination, symbolic interpret...
