Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bulletin of the School of Classical Studies at Athens, Vol. 5: The First Twenty Years of the American School of Classical Studies at Athens The present seems a fitting time for a survey of the history of the American School of Classical Studies at Athens. The Twentieth Report of the School to the Council of the Institute has recently been published, and the actual work of the School in Greece is in its twentieth year. It was at the annual meeting of the Archaeological Institute of America, on May 21, 1881, that a committee was appointed to devise a plan for the crea tion at Athens of an American School of Classical Literature, Art, and Antiquities, and to carry the plan into immediate exe cution should it appear well to do so, and on December 20 of that year the Committee issued a circular appealing for aid to the colleges which have been the chief supporters of the School during these twenty years. If our old friend Herodotus had my theme, I am sure that he would begin his story with the early relations of America with Greece, before the founding of our School, and I should like to follow the course which he would approve.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "At the close of the Victorian era, two generations of intrepid women abandoned Grand Tour travel for the rigors of archaeological expeditions, shining the light of scientific exploration on Old World antiquity. Breaking Ground highlights the remarkable careers of twelve pioneers---a compelling narrative of personal, social, intellectual, and historical achievement." -Claire Lyons, The Getty Museum "Behind these pioneering women lie a wide range of fascinating and inspiring life stories. Though each of their tales is unique, they were all formidable scholars whose important contributions changed the field of archaeology. Kudos to the authors for making their stories and accomplishments known to us all!" -Jodi Magness, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill This book presents twelve fascinating women whose contributions to the development and progress of Old World archaeology---in an area ranging from Italy to Mesopotamia---have been immeasurable. Each essay in this collection examines the life of a pioneer archaeologist in the early days of the discipline, tracing her path from education in the classics to travel and exploration and eventual international recognition in the field of archaeology. The lives of these women may serve as models both for those interested in gender studies and the history of archaeology because in fact, they broke ground both as women and as archaeologists. The interest inherent in these biographies will reach well beyond defined disciplines and subdisciplines, for the life of each of these exciting and accomplished individuals is an adventure story in itself
Download or read book Vrysaki written by Sylvie Dumont and published by American School of Classical Studies at Athens. This book was released on 2020-02-01 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1931 and 1939, central Athens was transformed by the expropriation and demolition of the Vrysaki neighborhood at the foot of the Acropolis. In these few years, more than 5,000 inhabitants were displaced and 348 properties were torn down so that the American School of Classical Studies at Athens (ASCSA) could excavate the ancient Agora; the scale of the project and the degree to which it was documented make this a unique episode in the history of Greek archaeology. Using materials from the ASCSA Archives and a large collection of photographs from the 1930s, this volume details the history of the negotiations, the expropriations, and, most importantly, the Vrysaki neighborhood itself. Illustrating its streets, shops, houses, names, and faces, the author provides a vivid recreation of the community that was Vrysaki.
