Paperback. Condition: New. In "the Hellenistic Age and History of Civilization," J.B. Bury discusses important advances made in mathematics, astronomy, and geography; the pattern of the hellenization of Rome; and changing Greek ideas of barbarianism and cosmopolitanism.E. A. Barber's essay, "Alexandrian Literature," deals with t…he characteristic styles of the period, Alexandrian poetry, and the new prose forms. Besides the scientific and learned writing it is known for, Professor Barber demonstrates, the age produced much popular satiric and moralizing poetry, realistic mime, epigrams, and parodies.As the system of the city states declined, increasing social instability fostered the rise of a number of popular philosophies. In another chapter, Edwyn Bevan outlines the similarities and differences between the Platonic, Peripatetic, Stoic, Epicurean, Sceptic, and Cynic schools and the effect of Christianity on their society.W. W. Tarn's "The Social Question in the Third Century" examines the conditions that led to revolution in the century after Alexander. The author describes the economic disturbances leading to the polarization of classes, and assesses the phases of social revolution as exemplified in the uprisings at Sparta.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Illustrated. Minor shelf wear. Else a bright, clean copy. In the past, girls from rural southeastern Europe spent their childhoods weaving, sewing, and embroidering festive dress so that upon reaching puberty they could join the Sunday afternoon village dances ga…rbed in resplendent attire. These extremely colorful and intensely worked garments were often adorned with embroidery, lace, metallic threads, coins, sequins, beads, and, perhaps most importantly, fringe, a symbolic marker of fertility. Over time new forms of dress were added so that by 1900, a southeastern European village woman's apparel consisted of millennia of layered history. Even today this dress continues to be worn on festive occasions and by older people in rural areas. Lavishly illustrated, Resplendent Dress from Southeastern Europe features fifty stunning nineteenth- through twentieth-century ensembles from Macedonia, Croatia, Albania, Montenegro, and neighboring countries, plus one hundred individual items including aprons, vests, jackets, and robes. Elizabeth Wayland Barber traces this twenty-thousand-year tradition of dress in fascinating detail.

Paperback. Condition: Good. Paperback Edition. A fascinating **Paperback Edition** of E. J. W. Barber's 'The Mummies of Ürümchi', published by Pan in London in 2000. This compelling book delves into the groundbreaking discovery and meticulous excavation of a group of astonishingly well-preserved mummies, interred around 1000 BC…in what is now Chinese Turkestan (Xinjiang province). The project was shrouded in mystery, a quality that pervades the narrative. Notably, all the mummies were found intact, with some even retaining their internal organs, an exceptional feat of natural preservation. Perhaps the most significant revelation was their Caucasian ethnicity, a finding that dramatically challenges previous theories regarding the demographic history of this region prior to the arrival of the Chinese and Mongols. This edition is likely illustrated with photographic plates and maps, common for a work of this archaeological significance, though a specific illustrator is not credited. The book is offered in **Good condition**.
