Open Access Journal: Hebraic Political Studies

 [First posted in AWOL 30 September 2009. Updated 16 March 2014]

Hebraic Political Studies
ISSN: 1565-6640

Hebraic Political Studies is an international, peer-reviewed journal launched in 2005.  The journal is published quarterly by Shalem Press, and edited by Professor Gordon Schochet of Rutgers University and Dr. Arthur Eyffinger of the Huygens Institute in the Netherlands. Hebraic Political Studies publishes articles that explore the political concepts of the Hebrew Bible and rabbinic literature, the significance of reflections on the Hebrew Bible and Judaic sources in the history of ideas, and the role of these sources in the history of the West. Hebraic Political Studies aims to evaluate the place of the Jewish textual tradition, alongside the traditions of Greece and Rome, in political history and the history of political thought.

Bruno Helly: Quarante années de recherche en pays greq 1966-2008

Bruno Helly: Quarante années de recherche en pays greq 1966-2008
Le projet de rassembler les différents articles de Bruno Helly, Directeur de recherche émérite au CNRS, est né de deux volontés : d’une part rendre hommage à cet éminent chercheur au moment où il arrivait à l’heure de la retraite, d’autre part permettre ou faciliter l’accès aux nombreux articles qu’il a écrits et dont certains ont été publiés dans des revues parfois difficiles à trouver. L'importance des travaux de Bruno Helly pour la recherche épigraphique et historique sur la Thessalie n'est plus à démontrer, mais la diversité de ses centres d'intérêt ne l'est pas davantage, qu'il s'agisse de fouilles archéologiques à Salamine de Chypre au début de sa carrière, ou d'études d'archéosismicité qui, ces dernières années, l'ont mené de France en Grèce et jusqu'au Bangladesh ou en Arménie.

 C'est pourquoi, lorsque nous avons entrepris de rassembler ses articles, il ne nous est pas venu à l'idée de nous en tenir aux seuls articles thessaliens. On trouvera donc, dans ce CD-Rom, l'ensemble de ses publications, à quelques exceptions près toutefois : d'une part les deux ouvrages qu'il a publiés l'un en 1973 (Gonnoi I et II, A.M. Hakkert, Amsterdam), l'autre en 1995 (L'État thessalien. Aleuas le Roux, les tétrades et les tagoi, CMO 25 - Série épigraphique 2, Maison de l'Orient Méditerranéen, Lyon) et d'autre part les chroniques annuelles « Thessalie » du Bulletin Épigraphique de la Revue des Études Grecques où, depuis 1988, B. Helly (avec J.-C. Decourt, depuis 1998) signale et analyse les différentes publications consacrées à l'histoire de la Thessalie. Quant au choix du support de ce recueil, un CD-Rom et non un livre, il s'est imposé de lui-même compte tenu du goût et de l'intérêt de B. Helly pour les technologies nouvelles.

 Dans un premier temps, ce CD-Rom regroupait cent cinq articles, publiés ou rédigés entre 1966 et 2003, mais, compte-tenu du retard apporté à sa réalisation, nous y avons adjoint les articles publiés entre 2003 et 2008, mais sans fichiers PDF. Ces vingt sept articles plus récents sont donc recensés et indexés mais ne sont consultables que dans leur revue de publication. D’autres articles sont actuellement sous presse ou à paraître prochainement, d’autres encore sont en cours de rédaction… On l’aura compris : la « retraite » de Bruno Helly n’a de retraite que le nom et nous envisageons déjà un deuxième recueil, sous une forme à définir (CD-Rom, site Web ou… livre ?), dans quelques années.
