One off Journal Issues: French archaeology abroad

Occasionally issues of journals where one might not normally think to look produce thematic issues of interest. Availablity online makes them much more discoverable. A case in point:

Numéro 5 // novembre 2001 of La revue pour l’histoire du CNRS is a special issue entitled Des laboratoires à l'étranger. Its contents include an interesting set of articles on French archaeological missions:

Girolamo Ramunni
Introduction

Ève Gran-Aymerich
L’archéologie française à l’étranger
Méditerranée, Afrique et Proche-Orient (1945-1970). Vers un nouvel équilibre

Catherine Nicault
Le CNRS dans l’« Orient compliqué »
Le Centre de recherche français de Jérusalem

Nicolas Grimal
La mission permanente de Karnak

AWOL is a project of Charles E. Jones, Tombros Librarian for Classics and Humanities at the Pattee Library, Penn State University

AWOL began with a series of entries under the heading AWOL on the Ancient World Bloggers Group Blog. I moved it to its own space here beginning in 2009.

The primary focus of the project is notice and comment on open access material relating to the ancient world, but I will also include other kinds of networked information as it comes available.

The ancient world is conceived here as it is at the Institute for the Study of the Ancient World at New York University, my academic home at the time AWOL was launched. That is, from the Pillars of Hercules to the Pacific, from the beginnings of human habitation to the late antique / early Islamic period.

AWOL is the successor to Abzu, a guide to networked open access data relevant to the study and public presentation of the Ancient Near East and the Ancient Mediterranean world, founded at the Oriental Institute, University of Chicago in 1994. Together they represent the longest sustained effort to map the development of open digital scholarship in any discipline.

AWOL is syndicated to Facebook and Twitter.
