  • The Nature of Hellenistic Domestic Sculpture in Its Cultural and Spatial Contexts
    THE NATURE OF HELLENISTIC DOMESTIC SCULPTURE IN ITS CULTURAL AND SPATIAL CONTEXTS DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Craig I. Hardiman, B.Comm., B.A., M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Dr. Mark D. Fullerton, Advisor Dr. Timothy J. McNiven _______________________________ Advisor Dr. Stephen V. Tracy Graduate Program in the History of Art Copyright by Craig I. Hardiman 2005 ABSTRACT This dissertation marks the first synthetic and contextual analysis of domestic sculpture for the whole of the Hellenistic period (323 BCE – 31 BCE). Prior to this study, Hellenistic domestic sculpture had been examined from a broadly literary perspective or had been the focus of smaller regional or site-specific studies. Rather than taking any one approach, this dissertation examines both the literary testimonia and the material record in order to develop as full a picture as possible for the location, function and meaning(s) of these pieces. The study begins with a reconsideration of the literary evidence. The testimonia deal chiefly with the residences of the Hellenistic kings and their conspicuous displays of wealth in the most public rooms in the home, namely courtyards and dining rooms. Following this, the material evidence from the Greek mainland and Asia Minor is considered. The general evidence supports the literary testimonia’s location for these sculptures. In addition, several individual examples offer insights into the sophistication of domestic decorative programs among the Greeks, something usually associated with the Romans.

  • A New Cavernicolous Species of the Pseudoscorpion Genus Roncus L
    Int. J. Speleol. 5 (1973), pp. 127-134. A New Cavernicolous Species of the Pseudoscorpion Genus Roncus L. Koch, 1873 (Neobisiidae, Pseudoscorpiones) from the Balkan Peninsula by Bozidar P.M. CURtlC * The range of the pseudoscorpion subgenus Parablothrlls Beier 1928 (from the genus Roncus L. Koch 1873) extends over the northern Mediterranean, covering a vast zone from Catalonia on the west as far as Thrace on the east. The northern limit of distribution of these false scorpions is situated within the Dolomites and the Alps of Carinthia; the most southern locations of the subgenus were registered on the island of Crete. Eight species of Parablothrus are known to inhabit the Balkan Peninsula which represents an impo;:tant distribution centre of the subgenus (Beier 1963, Helversen 1969); of them, six were found in the Dinaric Karst. The caves of Carniola are thus populated by R. (F:) stussineri (Simon) 1881, and R. (P) anophthalmus (Ellingsen) 1910, R. (P.) cavernicola Beier 1928 and R. (P) vulcanius Beier 1939 are known from Herzegovina. The last species was also collected on some Dalmatian islands. Both Adriatic and Ionian islands are inhabited by two other members of Parablo- thrus, namely R. (P.) insularis Beier 1939 (which was found on the isle of Brae) and R. (P) corcyraeus Beier 1963, the latter living on Corfu. Except for the Dinaric elements of Parablothrus, the Balkan representatives of the subgenus have not been sufficiently studied. In spite of this, one may assume that the differentiation of cave living species of Roncus took place both east and north of the peninsula.

  • Galata Experience”
    Uludağ Üniversitesi Mühendislik-Mimarlık Fakültesi Dergisi, Cilt 15, Sayı 2, 2010 AN ARCHITECTURAL DESING STUDIO IN APPROACH: “GALATA EXPERİENCE” Özgür EDİZ* Nilüfer AKINCITÜRK* Yıldız ÇAĞLI* Yasemin ERBİL* Miray GÜR* Haluk ÇETİNKAYA** Abstract: This study has been brought about due to the projects carried out in our country in recent years under the name of “transformation”. We believe it is both valuable and necessary that these transformation projects, which involve individuals who take part in the academic process and who are concerned with studio education, should also be dealt with in the architectural education process. Formed out of this idea, the “architectural design studio” was conceived with the aim of enabling students to “re-think” the above concepts and, by creating various projects in this context, of increasing their “internalisation” and “awareness” of the subject. In this case study, concepts such as urban transformation, urban change and urban environment, which are the “artificial” and, unfortunately, “sterile” concepts mentioned above, are discussed with the “Galata experience” on the basis of the students’ designs. Key Words: Architectural education, design studio, urban transformation, case study, Galata.

  • Title Page Echoes of the Salpinx: the Trumpet in Ancient Greek Culture
    Title Page Echoes of the salpinx: the trumpet in ancient Greek culture. Carolyn Susan Bowyer. Royal Holloway, University of London. MPhil. 1 Declaration of Authorship I Carolyn Susan Bowyer hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: ______________________ Date: ________________________ 2 Echoes of the salpinx : the trumpet in ancient Greek culture. Abstract The trumpet from the 5th century BC in ancient Greece, the salpinx, has been largely ignored in modern scholarship. My thesis begins with the origins and physical characteristics of the Greek trumpet, comparing trumpets from other ancient cultures. I then analyse the sounds made by the trumpet, and the emotions caused by these sounds, noting the growing sophistication of the language used by Greek authors. In particular, I highlight its distinctively Greek association with the human voice. I discuss the range of signals and instructions given by the trumpet on the battlefield, demonstrating a developing technical vocabulary in Greek historiography. In my final chapter, I examine the role of the trumpet in peacetime, playing its part in athletic competitions, sacrifice, ceremonies, entertainment and ritual. The thesis re-assesses and illustrates the significant and varied roles played by the trumpet in Greek culture. 3 Echoes of the salpinx : the trumpet in ancient Greek culture Title page page 1 Declaration of Authorship page 2 Abstract page 3 Table of Contents pages
