Book excerpt: Rongée par la tuberculose, Lady Lucie Duff-Gordon (1821-1869) a scellé comme un pacte personnel avec l'Égypte, où elle s'installe définitivement en 1862 sur le conseil de son médecin. On la devine anglaise jusqu'au bout des ongles, mais elle est de ces Anglaises que l'insularité étouffe et qui ne s'épanouissent vraiment qu'en partant à la découverte du monde. A Louqsor, elle se définira elle-même comme une Orientale immergée dans l'univers du peuple. Elle apprendra l'arabe et les fellahs l'honoreront du noble nom de " Lumière d'en haut ".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The congresses organised every four years under the auspices of the International Association for Coptic Studies (IACS) are the main forum for scholars of Egyptian Christian life and culture through the ages. The proceedings of the seventh congress, which was held in Leiden in 2000, comprise ninety-nine papers, reflecting the growth and diversification of Coptic studies worldwide. They include valuable and sometimes groundbreaking essays in topics of, for example, Coptic language, literature, monasticism and archaeology. A particularly noteworthy and important feature of the present proceedings are the state-of-the-art reviews of current trends and achievements in the main fields of the discipline, written by invited experts and accompanied by extensive bibliographies. These review articles cover aspects of Coptic studies as diverse as papyrology, gnosticism, liturgy, Copto-Arabic and art history. They turn these two volumes into real reference books, indispensable for every scholar of early Church history, late antiquity and Near Eastern Christianity.

Download or read book The Homoerotics of Orientalism written by Joseph A. Boone and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2014-03-18 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The place of the Middle East in European heterosexual fantasy is well documented in the works of Edward Said and others, yet few have considered the male Anglo-European (and, later, American) writers, artists, travelers, and thinkers compelled to represent what, to their eyes, seemed to be an abundance of erotic relations between men in the Islamicate world. Whether feared or desired, the mere possibility of sexual contact with or between men in the Middle East has covertly underwritten much of the appeal and practice of the enterprise of Orientalism, frequently repeating yet just as often upending its assumed meanings. Traces of this undertow abound in European and Middle Eastern fiction, diaries, travel literature, erotica, ethnography, painting, photography, film, and digital media. Joseph Allen Boone explores these vast representations, linking European art to Middle Eastern sources largely unfamiliar to Western audiences and, in some cases, reproduced in this volume for the first time.

Download or read book The Topography of Ancient Idalion and its Territory written by Stephan G. Schmid and published by Logos Verlag Berlin GmbH. This book was released on 2024-06-18 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The question of how to define the territories of the ancient polities (city-kingdoms) of Iron Age Cyprus is a fascinating, but also a very difficult one. While this topic has already been widely explored by previous scholarship, recent investigations that include both modern approaches, such as the application of landscape archaeological methodologies, as well as a re-evaluation of the available archaeological evidence from a new perspective, now offers a fresh take on such questions. A workshop organized in Berlin in 2018 aimed at discussing additional information on the topography of the ancient city of Idalion and its hinterland. This volume therefore includes unique contributions that deal with a wide array of relevant aspects. They provide new information on the location, chronology and character of settlements, necropoleis and sanctuaries from the wider area of Idalion, and discuss important issues such as the continuity or discontinuity of settlement activities from the (Late) Bronze Age to the Iron Age and how this is reflected by material culture. They address questions concerned with the physical control of territories and communication networks by considering Idalion’s resource availability and the overall development of its rural settlement pattern in contrast to that of its neighbouring polities.
