Description:
Description: Ce livre regroupe vingt-trois contributions à l'étude des surfaces dont un tiers concerne la mise en forme des matériaux. Elles ont été regroupées sous cinq thèmes : • la réactivité des surfaces solides, en particulier envers les composés organiques, vue à travers les techniques d'analyse nucléaire, de spectroscopie vibrationnelle et de spectroscopie de masse d'ions secondaires ; • la déformation des surfaces et interfaces décrivant l'évolution géométrique d'interfaces dans les milieux biphasés et précisant l'analyse de leur rupture dans les joints adhésifs ; • la tribologie, ou thermomécanique du contact, développée ici non seulement dans le cas des contacts haute pression typiques des opérations de formage des métaux, mais aussi dans le cas des contacts basse pression ; • la modélisation numérique des surfaces, pratique a priori toute puissante, mais qui rencontre, au moins en mise en forme, des difficultés à décrire les surfaces libres ou en contact ; • archéomatériaux et mise en forme, études de la frappe au marteau et de son application au monnayage. Il y a vingt-six ans, François Delamare fondait ce qui est devenu le groupe Surfaces et Tribologie du Centre de Mise en Forme des Matériaux de l'Ecole des Mines de Paris. En même temps que la caractérisation des films minces, des surfaces solides et de leur réactivité, il a étudié les principaux phénomènes influant sur le frottement et l'usure (lubrification par film épais ou mince, tribochimie des additifs, transfert, abrasion) dans un contact dans le cas du tréfilage, de l'emboutissage et du laminage à froid. Dans ses domaines, il s'est plu a établir des liens avec l'histoire des techniques, l'Archéométrie et la Numismatique. A l'occasion de ses soixante ans, ses collègues et amis ont décidé de réunir en ce volume d'hommage leurs études ou réflexions relatives à ses divers domaines d'intérêt.
Description: Against the background of questions on cultural identity and memory, this book offers an overview of the development of the cults of Isis in Hellenistic and Roman Egypt, often presenting new or unpublished material.

Description: Late Antique artefacts, and the images they carry, attest to a highly connected visual culture from ca. 300 to 800 C.E. On the one hand, the same decorative motifs and iconographies are found across various genres of visual and material culture, irrespective of social and economic differences among their users – for instance in mosaics, architectural decoration, and luxury arts (silver plate, textiles, ivories), as well as in everyday objects such as tableware, lamps, and pilgrim vessels. On the other hand, they are also spread in geographically distant regions, mingled with local elements, far beyond the traditional borders of the classical world. At the same time, foreign motifs, especially of Germanic and Sasanian origin, are attested in Roman territories. This volume aims at investigating the reasons behind this seemingly globalised visual culture spread across the Late Antique world, both within the borders of the (former) Roman and (later) Byzantine Empire and beyond, bringing together diverse approaches characteristic of different national and disciplinary traditions. The presentation of a wide range of relevant case studies chosen from different geographical and cultural contexts exemplifies the vast scale of the phenomenon and demonstrates the benefit of addressing such a complex historical question with a combination of different theoretical approaches.

Description: This collection of papers, arising from the conference series Late Antique Archaeology, examines the archaeology of 'paganism' in late antiquity. Papers explore the end of the temples, the nature of ritual deposits, the fate of religious statues and the iconography in material culutre. These are complemented by two extensive bibliographic essays.
Description: The first monograph-length study on the intersection of art, science, and the natural world in Hellenistic and Roman times. Examines a series of mosaics, wall-paintings, and papyri surviving from the period 300 BC - AD 100, setting them in their historical and cultural context.
Description: The fortifications of Pompeii stand as the ancient city’s largest, oldest, and best preserved public monument. Over its 700-year history, Pompeii invested significant amounts of money, resources, and labor into re-building, maintaining, and upgrading the walls. Each intervention on the fortifications marked a pivotal event of social and political change, signalling dramatic shifts in Pompeii’s urban, social, and architectural framework. Viewing the role of the defences as purely military in nature is over-simplified. Their fate was intertwined with that of Pompeii; their construction materials, methods and aesthetics reflect the political, social, and urban development of the city. This study redefines Pompeii’s fortifications, as a central monument that physically and symbolically shaped the city. It considers the internal and external forces that morphed its appearance, and traces how the fortifications served to foster a sense of community. The defences emerge as a dynamic, ideologically freighted monument, subject to manipulation and appropriation that was critical to the image and identity of Pompeii. The book is a unique narrative of the social and urban development of the city from foundation to the eruption of Vesuvius, through the lens of the monument most critical to its independence and survival.
