Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good+. The extraordinary story of the loss and rediscovery of the city that fought Troy, told through archaeology, literature, and poetic black-and-white photographyThe Mycenaean civilization flourished more than 800 years before the classical Greeks, with a complex society, strong artistic tendencies, and a distinct system of writing. Famous for its lion gate and citadel, Mycenae was long believed to be the city that fought Troy in Homerâs epic, the Iliad. But after flourishing nearly three thousand years ago the society vanished, becoming nothing more than a legend. Mycenae: From Myth to History brings readers into the heart of this mystery, as it was being solved, through lively text, stunning photographs, and an original take on Greek history and mythology.; 10.8 X 8.8 X 1.3 inches; 288 pages.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. Why did the allies of the Triple Entente (Russia, France, and the United Kingdom) victimise this small country and persecute its king with false accusations, why the many depredations, the seizing of Greek warships and war material, the bombing of Athens, the endless fake news produced in Greece but reproduced and amplified in Paris, why the enormities of hundreds of German submarines refuelling in Greece, thousands of German Uhlans descending on Larissa, why the starving of the Greek people? What was the aim of the Entente in doing all these things? A simplistic, but politically useful, explanation was imposed at the time and has been repeated decade after decade ever since: King Constantine was working for the Germans. This book debunks this simplistic explanation and sets out all the facts proving that there was some other reason behind the dealings of the Entente Powers; they did not act in concert and - most probably- the explanation of this enigma is to be sought in France and in Greece.

Copertina rigida. Condizione: Molto buono. Antologia di viaggio in immagini anni 50-60. McCabe potrebbe essere nato e cresciuto negli Stati Uniti, ma è la Grecia con quale sarà per sempre sinonimo. Le raffigurazioni di McCabe sono coinvolgenti come alcune delle immagini più "iconiche" catturate dai suoi famosi contemporanei. Che si tratti di momenti di vita quotidiana o di paesaggi e monumenti accattivanti per cui il paese è rinomato, le sue immagini distillano magnificamente l'essenza del paese. Nel complesso, il suo lavoro testimonia un affetto profondo e duraturo, mettendo in mostra l'abilità artistica di un fotografo americano e l'affascinante bellezza del paese con cui sarà per sempre legato. Cartonato con sovraccoperta illustrata. Pp. 187. Pari al nuovo.…
