Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Catalogue of the Greek Vases in the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge The most valuable part of Col. Leake's collection consisted of black-figured amphorae and hydriae, mostly Attic, and of Attic cylices, both black-figured and red-figured, including those signed by Hischylus and Saconides and by Cachrylion. This part of the collection was evidently bought in Italy, and the provenance in most cases is given as Vulci. To these must be added a collection of lecythi purchased in Athens, large in numbers, but, for the most part, of very little interest or value. All of the vases bought in Italy had sufl'ered severely at the hands of the antiquity-dealer, and had been over-painted until the original surface of the vase was hardly anywhere visible. The result of this process was to give an impression to any student of vases that the collection was in much worse condition, and of far less value and interest, than has proved to be the case. Almost all the vases have now been skilfully cleaned by Mr H. Sharp, of the British Museum. The beauty of their original surface is restored; and it has been found that the opaque coat of paint which in many cases covered the whole vase was, in most cases, not required to hide considerable gaps in the design, but merely served to conceal unimportant frac tures, or to please an inexplicable taste. Unfortunately the restorer was not content with laying on a coat of paint, which could be removed, but also followed the most reprehensible custom of scrap ing out a groove along all lines of fracture, deep enough to hold a filling of new material; these grooves are everywhere only too conspicuous, and have, in many cases, carried away portions of the design.

Our aim is to provide readers with the highest quality reproductions of fiction and non-fiction literature that has stood the test of time. The many thousands of books in our collection have been sourced from libraries and private collections around the world.The titles that Trieste Publishing has chosen to be part of the collection have been scanned to simulate the original. Our readers see the books the same way that their first readers did decades or a hundred or more years ago.

Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life-writing is a vital part of the history of archaeology, and a growing field of scholarship within the discipline. The lives of archaeologists are entangled with histories of museums and collections, developments in science and scholarship, and narratives of nationalism and colonialism into the present. In recent years life-writing has played an important role in the surge of new research in the history of archaeology, including ground-breaking studies of discipline formation, institutionalisation, and social and intellectual networks. Sources such as diaries, wills, film, and the growing body of digital records are powerful tools for highlighting the contributions of hitherto marginalised archaeological lives including many pioneering women, hired labourers and other ‘hidden hands’. This book brings together critical perspectives on life-writing in the history of archaeology from leading figures in the field. These include studies of archive formation and use, the concept of ‘dig-writing’ as a distinctive genre of archaeological creativity, and reviews of new sources for already well-known lives. Several chapters reflect on the experience of life-writing, review the historiography of the field, and assess the intellectual value and significance of life-writing as a genre. Together, they work to problematise underlying assumptions about this genre, foregrounding methodology, social theory, ethics and other practice-focused frameworks in conscious tension with previous practices.
