Les médias nous dépeignent souvent une société majoritairement islamique fondamentaliste. Cette image, qui pourrait relever d’une représentation tardive du Moyen Orient par l’Occident est empreinte de problématiques d’ordre économique et soci étal. Une analyse précise permet de mettre au jour des singularités nationales et intranationales. Les développements artistiques profitent de ces sources multiples. Pour inclure les artistes du Moyen Orient dans l’histoire de l’art du monde , et comprendre les œuvres d’art contemporain, nous nous sommes servis de plusieurs approches. O utre l’analyse esthétique et la recherche d’influences formelles, il s’agit de comprendre les positions politiques de l'artiste, sa psychologie, son rôle dans la société, mais aussi la place de la religion dans la vie publique, la valeur attribuée à l’art contemporain et sa réception dans la société. -

The Value of Studying Roman Frontiers
Breeze, D. 2018. The Value of Studying Roman Frontiers. Theoretical Roman Archaeology Journal, 1(1): 1, pp. 1–17, DOI: https://doi.org/10.16995/traj.212 RESEARCH ARTICLE The Value of Studying Roman Frontiers David Breeze Retired, GB [email protected] Modern cross-border studies generally pay scant attention to the frontier works themselves. Yet analysis of these can tell us much about the relationships between Rome and her neighbours. In spite of that, and their popularity with a wider public, Roman frontier studies have fallen out of favour in mainstream academic circles in the UK. This paper seeks to emphasise that the study of these frontiers is essential to a balanced understanding of the Roman Empire and its relationship with its neighbours. The importance of understanding the detail before creating the bigger picture is underlined, as is the necessity to examine other frontiers than those in Britain, both elsewhere in the Roman Empire and at other times. Keywords: Roman frontiers; Roman army; warfare; Hadrian’s Wall; Dacia; indigenous population of Britain Introduction It is a truism that the study of Roman Britain is divided between those who study the civilian south and oth- ers who concentrate on the military north and west. Very few manage to bridge this divide and work in both areas. Nor does there seem to be much communication across the divide. In some ways, the post-colonial agenda has exacerbated this division as imperialism, colonialism, violence and slavery are often dismissed as ‘bad’ and therefore not worthy of study; in such a climate, it is unfortunate that the Roman army operated in all four areas. -

PUTNAM'S SONS Entered at Stationers' Hall, London Ube Iktiicherbocfter iPress, IRew jgorft To THE Public-Spirited Gentlemen OF Philadelphia WHO MADE THE EXPEDITION POSSIBLE THESE Volumes are Respectfully Dedicated PREFACE. No city in this country has shown an interest in archeol- ogy at all comparable with that displayed by Philadelphia, A group of public-spirited gentlemen in that city has given without stint time and money for explorations in Babylonia, Egypt, Central America, Italy, Greece, and our own land ; and has, within the last ten years amassed archaeological col- lections which are unsurpassed in this country. The first im- portant work undertaken was the Babylonian Expedition. As described in the Narrative, this expedition was inaugurated by a Philadelphia banker, Mr. E. W. Clark. The enterprise was taken up in its infancy by the University of Pennsylvania, under the lead of its provost, Dr. William Pepper. Dr. Pepper made this expedition and the little band of men who liad become interested in it the nucleus for further enterprises. A library and museum were built, an Archaeological Associa- tion was formed, and a band of men was gathered together in Philadelphia who have contributed with a liberality and en- thusiasm quite unparalleled for the prosecution of archaeologi- cal research in almost all parts of the world. -
“Americans in the East”:1 Francis Henry Bacon, Joseph Thacher Clarke, and the AIA at Assos
AIA Allen Final Pages 9/18/02 1:36 PM Page 63 — 3 — “Americans in the East”:1 Francis Henry Bacon, Joseph Thacher Clarke, and the AIA at Assos Susan Heuck Allen n 1878 Charles Eliot Norton, eager for the United States to stake its claim to a major archaeological site in the Mediterranean, watched as European Ipowers scrambled to plant their flags at ancient sites in Greece and Turkey. He needed reconnaissance to determine the most appropriate site for America’s first fieldwork in classical archaeology, yet there were no senior classical archae- ologists in America to whom Norton might entrust such a critical venture. For this mission he ultimately decided to support two young architects, Joseph Thacher Clarke (1856–1920) and Francis Henry Bacon (1856–1940). Norton viewed Clarke as a worthy pioneer, for he had been educated in Munich, then a major training ground for Americans in search of advanced education in classical archaeology. That Clarke had studied architecture, not archaeology or classics, at the Munich Polytechnic made little difference since he had developed an interest in ancient Greek architecture through the inspi- ration of art professor Franz von Reber (1834–1919) and gained firsthand experience of the architectural sculptures of the Temple of Aphaia on Aigina at the Glyptothek in Munich (Austin 1942, 1–2). In 1876 Clarke returned to Boston to practice architecture. With “elements of scholarliness in his make- up far in advance of his contemporaries . great things were predicted of him . in the way of learning and scholarship” (Austin 1942, 1). Norton was impressed by his “assurance and exhibition of erudition,” in large part the result of his German education, and he quickly made Clarke his protégé. -

This early work means that a sizeable amount of the current collections which were sourced by the institution have a traceable excavation history.
