The ASTENEBulletin
is published four times a year and aims to keep members informed of research
interests and queries in the field of travel in Egypt and the Near East.
Members are encouraged to submit information and material for the Bulletin
relating to on-going research and interests, conferences etc. There is
also a focus on useful subject-related bibliographies and biographies.
The Bulletin contains the following regular or semi-regular features:
articles — perhaps on work in progress, which should be no more than 2,000
words; select bibliographies; features on research resources; ASTENE news:
publications, conferences, seminars, exhibitions etc.; other exhibitions,
conferences of interest; announcements of relevant books/articles — in
preparation, forthcoming, recently published; members' notes and queries.
Submissions for the next Bulletin must
be received by 15th December 2010. We welcome articles, queries,
replies and other related matters from members. Please send the
contributions to the Editors, Sheila and Russell McGuirk via email at bulletin@astene.org.uk
The AWOL Index: The bibliographic data presented herein has been programmatically extracted from the content of AWOL - The Ancient World Online (ISSN 2156-2253) and formatted in accordance with a structured data model.
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.
