In the meantime, the Culturespaces Foundation, created under the aegis of the Fondation du Patrimoine, has set itself the task of supporting initiatives that give children access to culture. 3 Institut de France, owner of the Greek Villa Kérylos Created in 1795 in order to contribute on a non-profit basis to the renown of the Arts, Sciences and Humanities, the Institute de France (French Institute) groups together five academies: the French Academy, the Academy of inscriptions & belles-lettres, the Academy of sciences, Academy of fine arts and the Academy of moral & political sciences. At the same time, it is one of the oldest and most prestigious institutions practicing philanthropy and administering donations and legacies. For two centuries, it has housed foundations and awarded prizes that play an unparalleled role in modern philanthropy. Created by individuals or companies, the Institute’s foundations and prizes benefit from the experience of this secular institution in the areas of sponsorship and philanthropy, as well as from the proficiency of academicians in their fields of expertise. The Institute also owns an important artistic heritage, consisting of residences and exceptional collections of that have been bequeathed to it since the late 19th century; in particular: the Château de Chantilly, the Musée Jacquemart-André, the Abbey de Chaalis, the chateau de Langeais, the manoir de Kerazan as well as the villa Kérylos. www.institut-de-france.fr 4 Two designers with one passion The Villa Kérylos was born of a meeting between an erudite patron of the arts and an architect. This dream of ancient times gave rise to an atypical villa. Théodore Reinach, a great scholar Théodore Reinach (1860-1928) was the youngest of three very talented brothers, born into a family of bankers originally from Frankfurt. Important personalities in the 3rd Republic, the three Reinach brothers were known as the “know-it-alls” because of their extraordinary learning: Joseph, the eldest, was a member of the French parliament and worked with Gambetta and Salomon, a member of the Institute, distinguished himself as curator of the National Museum of Antiquities. As for Théodore, at a very young age he gained a double doctorate in law and arts and concentrated very quickly on the history of Ancient Greece. Archaeologist, papyrologist, numismatist and musicologist, he was accepted into the “Académie des Inscriptions et Belles Lettres” and was also a member of the Savoie parliament. His passion for Greece gave rise to the project to construct a Greek villa at Beaulieu-sur-mer, not far from Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild. Madame Reinach was in fact Baron Maurice Ephrussi’s niece. On his death in 1928, Théodore Reinach bequeathed Villa Kérylos to the Institut de France, of which he was a member. His children and grandchildren lived there until 1967, the year when it was classified as a historical monument. Emmanuel Pontremoli (1865-1956), an architect with a passion Théodore Reinach suggested this unbelievable project to Emmanuel Pontremoli: Build an Ancient Greek villa at Beaulieu. Straightaway, the young architect was won over. He was also aware of the difficulties: “I knew, he wrote in 1934, and previous attempts made me fully aware that any restoration, reproduction or reconstruction of a residence from the past is meaningless if it is exclusively based on what one believes to be the truth or the alleged archaeological truth. I also knew that to try and do this would be in vain, destined to certain failure, as from the first attempts, there was no accurate, conclusive document and this would mean everything would come to nothing due to the lack of any factual basis.” 5 Therefore, it was not a question of imitating but of reinventing Greece. Freedom of expression was the order of the day to succeed with this project and it was a long-drawn-out project as the architect took six years, from 1902 to 1908, to complete this masterpiece. In 1921, Emmanuel Pontremoli was appointed General Inspector of Government Buildings and National Palaces. This role took him to former royal residences, such as Versailles, Marly, Rambouillet, etc. At the end of his career, he was the first architect to be appointed director of the School of Fine Arts in Paris. A faithful reconstitution Far from being a mere copy of the noble houses on the Island of Delos, Villa Kérylos is rather a reinvention of Ancient Greece. The two men did not want to make a pastiche but wanted to create an original work with “Greece in mind”. Emmanuel Pontremoli demonstrated his genius by subtly incorporating the modern conveniences of the Belle Époque villas into the luxurious setting of an Ancient Greek villa: the pool in the balaneion was fed with water from taps concealed under round grilles and the astonishing folding piano, designed by Pleyel, with its workings concealed in a lemon wood chest. Villa Kérylos is, therefore, a magical place full of memories offering a vivid insight into ancient culture and being characteristic of the Belle Époque. A sad ending? Théodore Reinach’s many commitments in Paris prevented him from making the most of his villa, which was both splendid and very expensive. His political work for Savoie, his chair in ancient numismatics at the Collège de France and his work as a director of various journals kept him busy in Paris. The First World War forced him to accept an assignment in the United States of America in 1917, the year his wife died. Théodore Reinach died prematurely in 1928. He was never to know that some of his family would be sent to concentration camps, notably his son Léon, the keeper of the archives at Kérylos, which were taken by the Gestapo. 6 A palace inspired from Ancient Greece Based on the design of the noble houses of the Island of Delos in the 2nd century B.C., Villa Kérylos invites visitors to take a trip back in time to Ancient Greece. Everything, from the arrangement of the rooms to the refined decor, has been designed to recreate the atmosphere of a luxurious Greek villa. Built in the style of Mediterranean houses, Villa Kérylos is arranged around the peristyle, a large central courtyard surrounded by twelve monolithic columns in white Carrara marble. The balaneion The Balaneion (thermal baths); a private bathroom found only in luxurious houses, is in Carrara tiger marble. The Greeks were accustomed to relaxing here before their evening meal. Here too, Pontremoli demonstrated the extent of his freedom of expression and spirit of initiative. The centrepiece is the octagonal basin. One metre deep with sides of Carrara tiger marble, its mosaic bottom depicts the seabed. Its classical Greek shape would later be used by Christian baptisteries. As for the modern features, they are no less efficient for being discrete. The two open grilles conceal taps. Modern facilities actually supplied from the mains The peristyle Forming a major part of the ground floor, this is where the master of the house loved to take a stroll. An atrium to some, a patio to others, this central courtyard forms one of the essential parts of an Ancient Greek house, where air and light circulate, creating ideal conditions for the rosebay. At the centre, there is a plain basin of pure water. This is not a meaningless ornament but is intended to bring to mind the primordial role of water, the source of life.

  • Before the Odalisque: Renaissance Representations of Elite Ottoman Women Heather Madar
    Early Modern Women: An Interdisciplinary Journal 2011, vol. 6 Before the Odalisque: Renaissance Representations of Elite Ottoman Women Heather Madar he much-mythologized harem of the Ottoman sultans occupied a Tcentral place in European Orientalist thought for centuries.1 The harem, presented as an exotic world of forbidden sexuality inhabited by compliant yet sexually voracious women, appears in literature, art, and travel writing. While the most famous expressions of this harem fixa- tion date from later centuries,2 a focus on the harem as libidinous zone is demonstrably present in written sources from the sixteenth century. Yet an exploration of sixteenth-century European images turns up a surprising dearth of imagery in this vein. While Renaissance art lacks the languid odalisques or detailed views of the physical environment of the sultan’s harem familiar from later works, a series of largely overlooked representa- tions of elite Ottoman women do exist. Dating from the mid-sixteenth century, these images feature imagined portraits of sultanas — elite women such as Ottoman princesses, the sultan’s mother (valide sultan), or the sul- tan’s preferred concubine (haseki).3 Hurrem, the wife of sultan Süleyman, and his daughter Mihrimah appear most frequently in this genre. Yet strik- ing differences are immediately evident between their depiction and later, more familiar, views of the harem and harem women. The women shown in the Renaissance tradition were members of the sultan’s harem, yet they are not shown within a harem setting, nor do the images make reference to it. Although they are visually marked as Other, largely through the atten- tion given to their exotic dress, they are also presented as women who are of interest as individuals, possessing status and political significance.

    DOMESTIC ARCHITECTURE AS RHETORICAL DEVICE: THE GYNAECONITIS IN GREEK AND ROMAN THOUGHT KELLY I. MCARDLE A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Classics in the College of Arts and Sciences. Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: Hérica Valladares Alexander Duncan James O’Hara © 2018 Kelly I. McArdle ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Kelly I. McArdle: Domestic architecture as rhetorical device: The gynaeconitis in Greek and Roman thought (Under the direction of Hérica Valladares) In this thesis, I explore the gap between persistent literary reference to the gynaeconitis, or “women’s quarters,” and its elusive presence in the archaeological record, seeking to understand why it survived as a conceptual space in Roman literature several centuries after it supposedly existed as a physical space in fifth and fourth-century Greek homes. I begin my study by considering the origins of the gynaeconitis as a literary motif and contemplating what classical Greek texts reveal about this space. Reflecting on this information in light of the remains of Greek homes, I then look to Roman primary source material to consider why the gynaeconitis took up a strong presence in Roman thought. I argue that Roman writers, although far-removed from fifth and fourth-century Greek homes, found the gynaeconitis most useful as a mutable and efficient symbol of male control and a conceptual locus of identity formation. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS

  • The Study of Production and Consumption: the Case of Wine and Olive Oil
    ABSTRACT GENDERING THE PRODUCTION AND CONSUMPTION OF WINE AND OLIVE OIL IN ANCIENT GREECE by Lisa Marie Elliott A thesis which examines the ways production and consumption of wine and olive oil in ancient Greece was gendered from the Early Bronze Age through the Hellenistic Period. The paper is divided into two large sections. The first examines the social and political institutions of the Early Bronze Age and Archaic Period which influence the production and consumption of wine and olive oil by men and women. The second section examines how those same institutions changed in the Classical and Hellenistic Periods. In conclusion, by the Classical Period, both the production and the consumption of wine and olive oil became sexed. Production of wine and oil became controlled by men and the consumption of wine became regulated based directly on sex, but the consumption of olive oil remained unrestricted.
