Travelogues: Travellers' Views: Southeastern Europe – Eastern Mediterranean Greece – Asia Minor – Southern Italy

First posted in AWOL 3 April 2015, updated 26 May 2022]

Places – Monuments – People
Southeastern Europe – Eastern Mediterranean
Greece – Asia Minor – Southern Italy

Travelogues website was created within the broader project of Aikaterini Laskaridis Foundation to promote Greek culture, and especially Greek literature, on a national and international level. This website aims to make known the graphic materials found in travel accounts of journeys to Greece and the eastern Mediterranean from the 15th century onwards, and thus contribute both to students' education and scientific research. An important part of the editions that constituted the data base of the website belongs to the Historical Library of the Foundation, currently under construction.

Travelogues will periodically be updated with material from major libraries in Greece, such as Gennadius Library and Benaki Museum Library. This material, already in process, spans the time from the 15th to the early 20th century. Of approximately 4500 images, 560 have already been incorporated in the website's collections. In the same sense, the bibliography shall be updated with the most recent research contributions. User feedback will be taken into consideration and the pertinent modifications will get reflected.

    [Firsts posted in AWOL 22 July 2016, updated 23 February 2022]

    Agora Picture Books











     

    The primary purpose of the Agora Picture Book series is to enliven the experience of a visitor to the Athenian Agora, excavated by the American School since 1931. While drawing on the object and monuments that can be viewed on a visit to the site, these well-illustrated guides attempt to add some human color to the dry material remains. A number of the concise guides have become popular supplementary texts for undergraduate and graduate classes in classical civilization. Since 1998 the Picture Books have been published in color.

    Open Access Monograph Series: Mètis. Anthropologie des mondes grecs anciens

    [First posted in AWOL 16 October 2010. Updated 13 November 2021]

    Mètis: Anthropologie des mondes grecs anciens
    ISSN (Édition imprimée) : 1105-2201
    ISSN électronique : 1791-7077
    La collection Mètis est née en 1986 d’une collaboration entre hellénistes grecs et français. Elle s’est donné comme but d’étudier l’Antiquité grecque en se plaçant dans la perspective d’une anthropologie historique du monde grec ancien, tout en gardant le lien avec les disciplines érudites (philologie, histoire, archéologie, etc.), en prenant compte les apports de diverses sciences humaines (ethnologie, sociologie, linguistique, psychologie, psychanalyse). Elle a plus récemment pris le parti d’interroger aussi les cultures romaine et byzantine.
    De dimension internationale, elle ouvre ses publications à cinq langues (français, grec, anglais, italien, allemand) et son comité de lecture se compose de spécialistes originaires de divers pays européens (France, Grèce, Italie, Allemagne, Angleterre, etc.), ainsi que des États-Unis.
