Das Fundament des Pergamonaltars und die Aufnahme seiner Fassadenfragmente

Manfred Klinkott [Author]

Die Abhandlung zum Fundament des Pergamonaltars und der Bauteile seiner Fassaden ergab sich aus einer Nachprüfung der bisherigen Datierung des Gebäudes anhand der Keramik in den Kammern der Rostkonstruktion durch W. Radt und G. de Luca. Dadurch war die Möglichkeit gegeben, das gesamte Fundament mit einer steingerechten Bauaufnahme zu erfassen. Das Ergebnis dieser Bauaufnahme führte zu einem Vergleich mit allen vorliegenden Rekonstruktionsversuchen, die sich voneinander unterschieden und sich nicht der Fundamentgröße anpassen ließen. So kam es zur nächsten Herausforderung, dem Überprüfen der Fassaden in ihren Seitenlängen, wozu jedoch jedes noch vorhandene Bauteil nachgemessen werden musste. Dabei galt es auch herauszufinden, welche Fragmente von der Bauhütte exakt oder nachlässig bearbeitet wurden. Aber um das beurteilen zu können, musste erst die richtige Fußmaßgröße aus der Menge der gesammelten Daten gefunden werden, um schließlich die Breitenmaße der Fassaden zu errechnen, die sich nur mit dem richtigen Ergebnis dem Fundament aufsetzen lassen. Mit diesem ›Schlüsselwert‹ waren dann auch die bisher in Vorschlag gebrachten Höhen des Gebäudes mit ihren Untergliederungen zu kontrollieren. Dass sich der Aufbau im unteren Bereich nach den Stufen der großen Freitreppe richten musste, war als selbstverständlich ohne Zweifel anzunehmen. Dann aber zeigte es sich, dass am Kolonnadengeschoss das Gliederungsprinzip durchbrochen wurde, um perspektivische Verkürzungen optisch auszugleichen. Mit dieser Abweichung aus dem zunächst festgelegten Stufenrhythmus unterscheidet
sich der pergamenische Architekt von einer bis in das kleinste Detail durchdachten Entwurfsdisziplin, um dem Zwang einer völlig in Regeln eingebundenen Architektur zu entgehen.

The Name and Gender: The Satirical Drama and the ‘Fourth Drama’ in Greek Theatre

Laura Carrara - Università di Pisa, Italia

Series | Lexis Supplements

This book examines the structure of the dramatic tetralogy as performed at the Great Dionysia (the major festival of Greek theatre), focusing on its final slot. According to the standard reconstruction, this position was always occupied by a satyric play, a lighter and shorter pièce obligatorily featuring a chorus of satyrs (and their old ribald father Silenus), whose function was, among other things, to provide emotional relief from the three preceding tragedies. If this was the case, exactly one fourth of each tragedian’s output would have consisted of satyr plays. The book takes a fresh and extensive look at the evidence supporting this view, questioning whether the so-called ‘tetralogical rule’ of modern scholarship was really perceived as such by ancient Greek playwrights and thus invariably followed by them. To this effect, the First Part of the book (“The Name”) systematically reviews the various possible Greek denominations for ‘satyric drama’, starting from the somewhat puzzling observation that there was no single dedicated word for it, at least none comparable to ‘tragedy’ or ‘comedy’. The review confirms that the most widespread way of referring to a satyr play was by appending the adjective σατυρικός/-ή to its title. In ancient quotation practice, however, these additions were easily liable to omission. Thus, it stands to reason that, in the course of the transmission process, originally satyric titles and lines circulating without further definition might have become mingled with, or mistaken for, tragic ones. The Second Part of the book (“The Genre”) takes its cue from this phenomenon, but it challenges the common view that all missing satyr plays of Classical theatre – that is, the ones expected on account of the 1:4 proportion but not traced until now – are still lurking incognito among the tragic remnants. Instead, it suggests that some of them were never written, since ancient playwrights could turn to an alternative format to fill the last slot of the tetralogy: the ‘satyr-less’ fourth-place play. The only certainly known instance of this, Euripides’s Alcestis, the last play in the tetralogy of 438 BC, has been variously explained away as an exception to the ‘tetralogical rule’. Through a re-reading of the relevant ancient sources and a reassessment of the corpora of Sophocles and Euripides, the book aims to show that the ‘satyr-less’ option was, on the contrary, potentially available to all playwrights entering the Dionysian competition and in fact occasionally, if not regularly, employed. The conclusion drafts a provisional identikit of this semi-forgotten literary typology.

Metri lirici nella poesia greca d’età imperiale: tra riuso e innovazione

Palermo, Gabriele
Thumbnail Image
Il variegato panorama dei metri lirici nella poesia greca ha da sempre incontrato il vivo interesse degli studiosi, per quanto concerne la produzione di epoca arcaica e classica. Molto meno studiata è l’evoluzione di queste forme metriche dall’ellenismo alla tarda antichità, tra progressive semplificazioni, adattamenti a nuovi contesti e creazioni originali. Questo studio intende contribuire a riempire una parte di questo vuoto, analizzando nel dettaglio, non senza uno sguardo d’insieme, i testi in metri lirici (o comunque di origine lirica più o meno diretta) risalenti ai secoli I-V d.C.

Arsinoe 3D: Riscoperta di una città perduta dell'Egitto greco-romano

Edited by: Francesca Maltomini, and Sandro Parrinello
 

The volume illustrates the reconstruction of the excavation mission conducted by the «G. Vitelli» Papyrological Institute in the winter between 1964 and 1965 on the site of Arsinoe, ancient capital of the Fayyum district. Archival materials, archaeological finds and papyri shed light both on the fieldwork and architecture of the area investigated and on aspects of daily life in Ptolemaic and Roman Egypt. Furthermore, the available documentation has been used to make ‘visitable’ again – through 3D models, digital storytelling and augmented reality – an archaeological site that has forever disappeared under the growth of contemporary urbanisation.

Il papiro di Vicenza (P.Vic.): Un nuovo papiro latino del VI secolo

  • Teresa De Robertis,
  • Antonella Ghignoli,
  • Stefano Zamponi


Included in this volume is the edition of an unknown Latin papyrus that was rediscovered around twenty years ago in the collections of the Museo Civico of the Palazzo Chiericati of Vicenza. Dating to the sixth century AD and in all likelihood coming from Sicily, the fragment preserves part of a larger text that was organized in the form of a list reporting various kinds of documentary material. Given the presence of terms and phenomena hitherto not attested in the late antique West in any direct tradition, it constitutes a written testimony of extraordinary importance. The edition is accompanied by comments and studies of a palaeographical and textual nature that aim at clarifying the date, provenance, and nature of the papyrus as well proposing an interpretation of it as a historical source.

Scholars, Travellers and Trade: The Pioneer Years of the National Museum of Antiquities in Leiden, 1818-1840

Scholars, Travellers and Trade: The Pioneer Years of the National Museum of Antiquities in Leiden, 1818-1840 book cover

Today, the National Museum of Antiquities in Leiden is internationally known for its outstanding archaeological collections. Yet its origins lie in an insignificant assortment of artefacts used for study by Leiden University. How did this transformation come about?
Ruurd Halbertsma has delved into the archives to show that the appointment of Caspar Reuvens as Professor of Archaeology in 1818 was the crucial turning point. He tells the dramatic story of Reuvens' struggle to establish the museum, with battles against rival scholars, red tape and the Dutch attitude of neglect towards archaeological monuments. This book throws new light on the process of creating a national museum, and the difficulties of convincing society of the value of the past.

ASOR CHI Update: Launch of Interactive Geodatabase through Google Maps

Public map on Culture Heritage Documented in Northern Africa & the Sahel

Founded in 2014, ASOR’s Cultural Heritage Initiatives (ASOR CHI) unites local communities, heritage professionals, and scholars to protect and promote cultural heritage and identity in southwestern Asia, northern Africa, and the Sahel. ASOR CHI’s recent work includes strengthening networks for the collaborative protection of cultural and religious heritage in the Sahel and northern Africa through the documentation and promotion of cultural heritage sites belonging to religious and ethnic minorities.

This initiative has resulted in over 600 heritage sites documented, including nearly one third of those sites severely damaged or in disrepair. ASOR has developed an interactive database through Google Maps to share ASOR’s efforts widely. We aim to make all project data publicly available (with permission from partner organizations and institutions).
