In English. In a narrative that reads like a novel, Lauro Martines presents this "rich and fascinating portrait of Girolamo Savonarola" (LA Times), the preacher and political agitator who took center stage in Renaissance Florence after the fall of the Medicis. The Dominican friar is remembered as a dour, puritanical demagogue, who urged his followers to burn their worldly goods in "the bonfire of the vanities." Martines shows this to be a caricature propagated by patricians who feared Savonarola's political reforms, and instead portrays a complex and subtle man and a charismatic leader, whose outspoken vision challenged the established hierarchy and led to his own burning in 1498. "Martines is one of our most renowned historians of the Italian Renaissance and of Florence in particular." — Washington Post Book World. // Clothbound, 22 cm, 336 pp. ISBN: 9780195166484.

In English. Soft cover, 24 cm, 316 pp., ill. ISBN: 9789604852307.The centenary of the Gallipoli Campaign provided a good opportunity for a better understanding of its connection with the First World War in the Mediterranean and its relation with its staging posts, Lemnos and the Northern Aegean islands. This was the aim of the international Conference "The First World War in the Mediterranean - ANZAC and the role of Lemnos", 26-28 June 2015. Eminent scholars from most of the participating countries in the Gallipoli Campaign, selectively pulled many threads (diplomatic, strategic, operational, tactical, political, humanitarian and social) of this unprecedented amphibious operation, and stressed the importance of its base of operations, the island of Lemnos. The commemoration of the dead of the First World War in Greece was also treated and an attempt was made to explore the ways in which the First World War heritage of Lemnos may become ever more relevant, in terms of academics and tourism.… Read More

In 1996, Diana Wood Conroy took up work as artist-in-residence at the excavation of the hellenistic-roman theatre complex. She describes this as a transformative experience in her life, the thread that runs through these journals and the inspiration that led her to explore the ancient theatres of the same period in Egypt, Greece and Turkey.

This book contains two manuscript texts of S.J. Ferdinand Verbiest (1623 - 1688), written in 1676 in Beijing to the attention of the Russian tsar, and brought by the legate N.S. Milescu to Moscow. Both texts represent the oldest layer of the Astronomia Europaea corpus, and were until recently forgotten. Their recent discovery was in the form of a manuscript copy by Chysanthos Notaras (Moscow, 1693). The manuscripts have since then been kept in a Library in Constantinople. In this publication, the authors are reconstituting the Latin text, translating it in English and annotating it. In the Introduction, the manuscripts are situated within the corpus of Verbiest’s Latin writings, and are depicted both the parts that were afterwards re-cycled in the well-known Compendium Latinum and Astronomia Europaea edition (Dilingen, 1687), and those that were eventually omitted. Moreover, the story of the Moscow… Read More
