Описание: The transformation of Saints George, Demetrios, Theodore and others into the patrons of Byzantine armies was one of the defining developments of religious life under the Macedonian emperors. This book provides a comprehensive study of military sainthood and its roots in late antiquity, and its subsequent development in early Rus.
With the exception of the wife of Andronikos III Palaiologos, Anna of Savoy, who acted as regent of Byzantium from 1341 to 1347, the lives of the late Byzantine empresses have so far received little scholarly attention. This study presents the biographies of all fifteen empresses of the Palaiologan dynasty and, based on their experiences, follows the development of the role and position of an empress in the last centuries of the empire. The final analysis considers the selection process for imperial brides and the rituals accompanying their arrival in Constantinople. The author also inquires into their role in public, ritual, and ecclesiastical life and their most important social roles at various stages of life.

Автор: H.A.G. Houghton, David C. Parker, Holger Strutwolf Название: The New Testament in Antiquity and Byzantium: Traditional and Digital Approaches to its Texts and Editing A Festschrift for Klaus Wachtel ISBN: 3110590204 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783110590203 Издательство: Walter de Gruyter Цена: 148700.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Klaus Wachtel has pioneered the creation of major editions of the Greek New Testament through a blend of traditional philological approaches and innovative digital tools. In this volume, an international range of New Testament scholars and editors honour his achievements with thirty-one original studies. Many of the themes mirror Wachtel's own publications on the history of the Byzantine text, the identification of manuscript families and groups, detailed analysis of individual witnesses and the development of software and databases to support the editorial process. Other contributions draw on the production of the Editio Critica Maior, with reference to the Gospels of Mark and John, the Acts of the Apostles, the Pauline Epistles and the Apocalypse. Several chapters consider the application of the Coherence-Based Genealogical Method. A wide selection of material is considered, from papyri to printed editions. The Greek text is analysed from multiple perspectives, including exegesis, grammar and orthography, alongside evidence from versions in Latin, Syriac, Coptic and Gothic. This collection provides new insights into the history of the biblical text and the creation, development, analysis and application of modern editions.

How does a supermarket cashier and single Mum become a fearless Baghdad bodyguard in the battlefields of Iraq?
This is the true story of Neryl Joyce, a young Australian woman, struggling to pay the bills, who signed up to be a soldier. After a stint with the Australian Army's elite Close Personal Protection Unit, Neryl joined a private security firm inside Baghdad's heavily guarded Green Zone. Here, she defended high-risk foreign targets from opportunistic assassination inside Iraq.
As a female bodyguard in the Middle East, Neryl had to be as good as--or even better than--any of her fellow soldiers. With courage and heart, she navigated sexual discrimination and abuse, operations on the world's most dangerous road, and the unrelenting brutality of a man's world. But the longer she stayed, the more convinced she became that disaster was imminent.
Somehow, Neryl survived to return home to her son and tell this heart-stopping and inspirational story.
Автор: Violette Shamash, Shmuel Moreh Название: Memories of Eden: A Journey Through Jewish Baghdad ISBN: 0810134462 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780810134461 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 23370.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: According to legend, the Garden of Eden was located in Iraq, and for millennia, Jews resided peacefully in metropolitan Baghdad. Memories of Eden: A Journey Through Jewish Baghdad reconstructs the last years of the oldest Jewish Diaspora community in the world through the recollections of Violette Shamash, a Jewish woman who was born in Baghdad in 1912, sent to her daughter Mira Rocca and son-in-law, the British journalist Tony Rocca. The result is a deeply textured memoir—an intimate portrait of an individual life, yet revealing of the complex dynamics of the Middle East in the twentieth century.Toward the end of her long life, Violette Shamash began writing letters, notes, and essays and sending them to the Roccas. The resulting book begins near the end of Ottoman rule and runs through the British Mandate, the emergence of an independent Iraq, and the start of dictatorial government. Shamash clearly loved the world in which she grew up but is altogether honest in her depiction of the transformation of attitudes toward Baghdad’s Jewish population. Shamash’s world is finally shattered by the Farhud, the name given to the massacre of hundreds of Iraqi Jews over three days in 1941. An event that has received very slight historical coverage, the Farhud is further described and placed in context in a concluding essay by Tony Rocca.
