This book was released on 2022-04-29 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Atti della Giornata di Studi in ricordo di Graziella Berti, a otto anni dalla scomparsa. 11 Giugno 2021 – Meeting virtuale in diretta streaming “Storie (di) Ceramiche” è una giornata di studi dedicata alla memoria di Graziella Berti, studiosa di ceramica e figura importante per gli studi storici sulla Pisa medievale e moderna, venuta a mancare l’11 Giugno del 2013. Questa occasione, giunta alla sua ottava edizione, vuole ricordarla nella maniera che lei stessa avrebbe apprezzato di più: attraverso i temi a lei cari, l’innovazione della ricerca e le nuove generazioni di studiosi. L’ottava edizione, svoltasi a otto anni dalla scomparsa della studiosa l’11 Giugno 2021 in diretta streaming su Facebook e YouTube a causa della pandemia COVID-19, è stata dedicata alle “Fonti scritte e iconografiche” utili all’analisi delle ceramiche di età medievale e moderna. Sin dalle prime ricerche in collaborazione con Liana ed Ezio Tongiorgi, Graziella Berti ha affiancato l’indagine sui documenti a quella derivante dai dati materiali, grazie ad un dialogo costante tra fonti di ambito diverso unite da uno scopo comune: raccontare e descrivere le ceramiche al fine di conoscerne le datazioni, gli usi, la circolazione, le terminologie, le tecnologie, la produzione. Allo studio dei documenti di archivio si è unito anche quello iconografico, ugualmente importante per contestualizzare e datare gli oggetti ceramici, consentendo, inoltre, di inquadrarli nei costumi e nella cultura del loro tempo. Le ricerche contenute in questo volume offrono un ampio sguardo alla realtà mediterranea di età medievale e moderna, con interventi che dalle porzioni più occidentali (Spagna e Francia) giungono, tramite l’Italia e Malta, sino alle terre greche. Gli argomenti trattati permettono, tramite l’analisi delle fonti scritte e iconografiche e l’incrocio con i dati materiali, di ricostruire le dinamiche di uso, gusto, consumo, produzione, datazione, circolazione, terminologia, moda delle ceramiche in un lungo arco temporale.

Download or read book Rural Archaeology in Early Urban Northern Mesopotamia written by Glenn M. Schwartz and published by Cotsen Institute of Archaeology Press. This book was released on 2015-12-31 with total page 691 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the results of the extensive excavation of a small, rural village from the period of emerging cities in upper Mesopotamia (modern northeast Syria) in the early to middle third millennium BC. Prior studies of early Near Eastern urban societies generally focused on the cities and elites, neglecting the rural component of urbanization. This research represents part of a move to rectify that imbalance. Reports on the architecture, pottery, animal bones, plant remains, and other varieties of artifacts and ecofacts enhance our understanding of the role of villages in the formation of urban societies, the economic relationship between small rural sites and urban centers, and status and economic differentiation in villages. Among the significant results are the extensive exposure of a large segment of the village area, revealing details of spatial and social organization and household economics. The predominance of large-scale grain storage and processing leads to questions of staple finance, economic relations with pastoralists, and connections to developing urban centers.
Download or read book Framing the Early Middle Ages written by Chris Wickham and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2006-11-30 with total page 1019 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Roman empire tends to be seen as a whole whereas the early middle ages tends to be seen as a collection of regional histories, roughly corresponding to the land-areas of modern nation states. As a result, early medieval history is much more fragmented, and there have been few convincing syntheses of socio-economic change in the post-Roman world since the 1930s. In recent decades, the rise of early medieval archaeology has also transformed our source-base, but this has not been adequately integrated into analyses of documentary history in almost any country. In Framing the Early Middle Ages Chris Wickham combines documentary and archaeological evidence to create a comparative history of the period 400-800. His analysis embraces each of the regions of the late Roman and immediately post-Roman world, from Denmark to Egypt. The book concentrates on classic socio-economic themes, state finance, the wealth and identity of the aristocracy, estate management, peasant society, rural settlement, cities, and exchange. These give only a partial picture of the period, but they frame and explain other developments. Earlier syntheses have taken the development of a single region as 'typical', with divergent developments presented as exceptions. This book takes all different developments as typical, and aims to construct a synthesis based on a better understanding of difference and the reasons for it.
