Paperback. Condizione: New. The spectacular ancient desert city of Palmyra was heavily destroyed during the Civil War in Syria. Shortly before the conflict escalated in 2011, the Palmyra Portrait Project was initiated. The research project is funded by the Carlsberg Foundation and headed by Professor and Centre Director Rubina Raja. The project's important work with the Syrian cultural heritage has since been widely published, and the latest edited volume within the project is now available as part of the Palmyrene Studies series published by The Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters.This book covers the roles of women and children within the family in Palmyra during the Roman period (1st-3rd centuries CE). The nine chapters are written by leading scholars of Palmyra who all participated in a two-part workshop held at Aarhus University in October 2016 and February 2017 under the auspices of the Palmyra Portrait Project. The chapters discuss different aspects of family constellations and assess which implications different representations of women and children may have carried in relation to the Palmyrene family structure and wider Palmyrene society.By looking at portraiture and the written evidence from the city, this volume adds further aspects to our understanding of how women and children were perceived in Palmyra and how identity aspects were included in their portraiture and the written evidence.…

Soft cover. Condizione: New. 133 pages : 24 cm. A Supplement to the Bollettino dei Monumenti, Musei e Gallerie Pontificie, available in English and dedicated to the collection of funerary portraits from the ancient city of Palmyra, an archaeological site of global importance. Conserved in the Vatican since 1999, until now the collection in its entirety has never been the object of a publication. This volume, accompanied by several colour images, is the result of long research conducted as part of an important international project conceived by the University of Aarhus and dedicated to Palmyrene funerary sculptures, the Palmyra Portraits Project. The data gathered enabled the funerary reliefs to be analysed from multiple points of view, and the customs and traditions of the ancient Syrian city to be reconstructed. The thirteen portraits, most of which form part of a donation by Federico Zeri, provide recurrent thematic and stylistic elements, observed here in depth and relocated within the field of traditional Roman portraiture, while highlighting interesting new aspects. The catalogue of works provides technical notes including the transcript and translation of the inscriptions, one hitherto unpublished, as well as a detailed description of each portrait.…
