Описание:
In the mid-19th century the Darwinian revolution and the discovery of the antiquity of mankind sparked a vigorous search for origins and a widespread interest in prehistory. In the 1870s, Heinrich Schliemann's famous excavations at Troy and Mycenae opened a new chapter in the history of the ancient world and appeared to provide flesh and blood to mythical Greek heroes. In the early 1900s, the spectacular discoveries by Sir Arthur Evans and other archaeologists in Crete provided an even longer perspective on the origins of Greece and Europe, by discovering an older civilization, dubbed 'Minoan' after the mythical figure of King Minos.
Ever since its rediscovery in the early 20th century, Minoan Crete has intrigued and captivated not only archaeologists and other specialists in the ancient world, but also a much wider public, which included famous novelists, poets, avant-garde artists, couturiers, musicians, philosophers, architects, film directors, and even psychoanalysts - from Sigmund Freud to Marcel Proust, D.H. Lawrence, Cecil Day-Lewis, Oswald Spengler, Nikos Kazantzakis, Robert Graves, Andr Gide, Mary Renault, Christa Wolf, Don DeLillo, Rhea Galanaki, L on Bakst, Marc Chagall, Mariano Fortuny y Madrazo, Robert Wise, Martin Heidegger, Karl Lagerfeld, and Harrison Birtwistle, among many others.
This volume explores the enduring cultural legacy of Minoan Crete through Minoan archaeology and modern responses to Minoan Crete. Although the emphasis is on the 20th century, it also examines the fascination with things Minoan in antiquity and in the current new millennium: from Minoan-inspired motifs in the iconography of the Greek Early Iron Age, to uses of the Minoans in 21st-century music, poetry, fashion, and other media. In all these cases, Momigliano shows how there is clear engagement with the material culture of Minoan Crete, not just with narratives about the House of King Minos derived from Classical sources.

Описание:
Before Sir Arthur Evans, the principal object of Greek prehistoric archaeology was the reconstruction of history in relation to myth. European travellers to Greece viewed its picturesque ruins as the gateway to mythical times, while Heinrich Schliemann, at the end of the nineteenth century, allegedly uncovered at Troy and Mycenae the legendary cities of the Homeric epics. It was Evans who, in his controversial excavations at Knossos, steered Aegean archaeology away from Homer towards the broader Mediterranean world. Yet in so doing he is thought to have done his own inventing, recreating the Cretan Labyrinth via the Bronze Age myth of the Minotaur. Nanno Marinatos challenges the entrenched idea that Evans was nothing more than a flamboyant researcher who turned speculation into history. She argues that Evans was an excellent archaeologist, one who used scientific observation and classification. Evans's combination of anthropology, comparative religion and analysis of cultic artefacts enabled him to develop a bold new method which Sir James Frazer called 'mental anthropology'.
It was this approach that led him to propose remarkable ideas about Minoan religion, theories that are now being vindicated as startling new evidence comes to light. Examining the frescoes from Akrotiri, on Santorini, that are gradually being restored, the author suggests that Evans's hypothesis of one unified goddess of nature is the best explanation of what they signify. Evans was in 1901 ahead of his time in viewing comparable Minoan scenes as a blend of ritual action and mythic imagination. Nanno Marinatos is a leading authority on Minoan religion. In this latest book she combines history, archaeology and myth to bold and original effect, offering a wholly new appraisal of Evans and the significance of his work. Sir Arthur Evans and Minoan Crete will be essential reading for all students of Minoan civilization, as well as an irresistible companion for travellers to Crete.

Описание: Dit boek wordt een methodische benadering geboden voor het gestandaardiseerd inrichten en aansturen van modern functioneel beheer. Functioneel beheer kan een mooie brug vormen tussen de business en IT-beheer. Het schijnbaar complexe vakgebied functioneel beheer krijgt nog maar relatief kort de aandacht die het verdient. Met de komst van ITIL is de laatste twee decennia de aandacht vooral gericht geweest op IT-beheer, dat dankzij die aandacht structureel is verbeterd. De tijd is nu rijp om op vergelijkbare wijze structureel te werken aan de verbetering van de brugfunctie die functioneel beheer moet en kan invullen. Om een eind te maken aan de enorme variatie in de praktijk van functioneel beheer is een methodische aanpak noodzakelijk. De FSM-methode (Functional Service Management) is ontwikkeld om invulling te geven aan die behoefte. Door de methodische structuur van FSM wordt een stapsgewijze verbeteraanpak mogelijk. De concrete verbeterdoelen in een FSM-invoering worden steeds bepaald door de lokale organisatie. Dit tekent het methodische karakter van FSM: een brede toepasbaarheid van beschikbare best practices, zoals gedocumenteerd in bijvoorbeeld BiSL, in een gestructureerde aanpak. Dat maakt de FSM-methode praktisch toepasbaar en begrijpelijk. De opzet van de FSM-methode is geheel analoog aan de ISM-methode voor IT-beheer. De methodes worden door tientallen leveranciers van producten en diensten gebruikt bij het ondersteunen van betere dienstverlening in de praktijk van de informatievoorziening. Jan van Bon is een internationaal erkende deskundige auteur, hoofdredacteur en spreker. Zijn brede kennis en analytisch vermogen gebruikt hij, top-down, om kritisch de erkende frameworks en standaarden te beschouwen en daaruit kennis te selecteren en toepasbaar te maken. Wim Hoving heeft ruim 20 jaar ervaring in het invoeren en toepassen van procesmatig werken. Kritisch en autodidactisch heeft hij, bottom-up, constant gewerkt aan het verbeteren van de dienstverlening door praktisch te innoveren en samenhang aan te brengen tussen alle hulpmiddelen.In het boek bieden de auteurs de lezer een degelijke basis voor de aanpak van functioneel beheer. Daarbij kunnen lokaal aanwezige middelen, tools, en werkwijzen in die aanpak een plaats krijgen, zonder dat een ingrijpende reorganisatie noodzakelijk is. Door vanuit een krachtige structuur een praktische toepassing te vinden voor de eigen problematiek, kan een organisatie rendement halen uit de methodische aanpak die met FSM is vastgelegd.

If you want to discover the captivating history of the Minoans, then keep reading...
The Minoans continue to be an intriguing subject for modern audiences because they are like a puzzle missing half of its pieces. Individuals have a rough idea of what it might look like, but there could be surprises no one even thinks of because all traces of the image are gone. For archaeologists, historians, tourists, scholars, fans of mythology, and students of the ancient world, the Minoans are this broken puzzle.
The Minoans were an ancient civilization that built their settlements on islands in the Aegean Sea. They lived almost 5,000 years ago and left behind traces of their lives but not enough for people to create a complete picture. Ever since the early 20th century, the Minoans have been a subject of interest thanks to the discoveries and excavations by Sir Arthur Evans, a British archaeologist who found the first Minoan ruins and named them after the mythological King Minos and his Minotaur. Evans was able to gain almost sole access to the lands of the Cretan government for excavation by paying for it with funds generated by his supporters in 1900. He and his crew unearthed the massive palace complex of Knossos, one of the most famous archaeological excavation sites in history.
From the work of Evans and others, the puzzle of the Minoans has slowly gained more pieces. Through the study of material culture, modern audiences now know quite a bit about artistic techniques, favorite subjects, fashion, daily life, gender roles, and who the Minoans traded with. An observer can tell that the Minoans were a seafaring mercantile civilization, that they built magnificent urban centers, and that they had a form of proto-writing.
In Minoans: A Captivating Guide to an Essential Bronze Age Society in Ancient Greece Called the Minoan Civilization, you will discover topics such as
Where and When Did the Minoans Live?
Known History of the Minoans before the Mycenaeans
Society, Culture, and Daily Life
Trade and Shipbuilding on the Mediterranean Sea
Language and Linear A
The Potential Predecessors of Greek Religion
Art
Architecture
Theories about the Collapse of Civilization
And much, much more

Описание:
"I hope that the text can be widely disseminated among the scholars in this field. If my experience is any indication of the likely response, it will be treasured. . . . Jatsemirskij clearly was set for a productive academic career that realistically could have culminated in finally cracking the code. In the wake of his passing, the book must be made available."
-Bernard Taylor, PhD, Research Professor, Loma Linda University
How are Linear A, Etruscan, and the ancient languages of the Mediterranean related? While the interrelationships among Indo-European languages have been studied extensively, much less is known about the languages that preceded them and their relationships. Here, scholar Sergej Jatsemirskij presents a comprehensive, comparative study of the Tyrrhenian languages of the eastern Mediterranean. Etruscan is the best-known example of them because of its greater number of extant inscriptions, but Jatsemirskij adds another dimension by introducing a comparative study with the older Minoan language of ancient Crete (written with the script known as Linear A).
Jatsemirskij, having initially explored these linguistic relationships in detail in his PhD thesis, continued this investigation at length for another decade, ultimately culminating in this volume. Tragically, his brilliant flame faded too soon, and, succumbing to pancreatic cancer at the age of thirty-seven, he was not able to see this book published. However, the editors felt that his extensive research should become available to all scholars, thus this volume.
