Download or read book Alexander s Coins and Alexander s Image written by Carmen Arnold-Biucchi and published by Harvard Art Museum (Acc). This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why another book on Alexander with more than 2,000 already in print? This publication presents a clear, up-to-date synthesis of the most recent research on the coinages of Alexander and his successors. While initially produced to accompany a new numismatic installation in the Greek gallery of Harvard University Art Museums' Arthur M. Sackler Museum and a Harvard course, the book is not strictly an exhibition catalog. Rather, it serves a broader purpose as a catalog for Harvard's Alexander and related coins, as well as a general introduction to coins, and specifically, to coins of the era. Of interest to collectors and cognoscenti, the book introduces ancient Greek coins and the development of portraiture on coins and also offers an overview of the complexity of the historical events and coinages from the time of Philip II of Macedon to the end of the Hellenistic monarchies in 31 BC. In a section on the afterlife of the image of Alexander, the author presents some original ideas on the Poros coinage and discusses some Baktrian coins, as well as Alexander's cult during the Roman Empire, particularly in relation to the Abu Qir medallions.
Download or read book Agrippina written by Anthony A. Barrett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-01-04 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this dynamic new biography - the first on Agrippina in English - Professor Barrett uses the latest archaeological, numismatic and historical evidence to provide a close and detailed study of her life and career. He shows how Agrippina's political contribution to her time seems in fact to have been positive, and that when she is judged by her achievements she demands admiration. Revealing the true figure behind the propaganda and the political machinations of which she was capable, he assesses the impact of her marriage to the emperor Claudius, on the country and her family. Finally, he exposed her one real failing - her relationship with her son, the monster of her own making to whom, in horrific and violent circumstances, she would eventually fall victim.
