Olympos

Autor: Dan Simmons

Número de Páginas: 748

Ilium chantait les exploits de la guerre de Troie, surveillée par le scholiaste Thomas Hockenberry pour le compte des posthumains divinisés qui habitent sur Mars le mont Olympos. Depuis, les choses se sont corsées. Échappant au scénario d'Homère, Grecs et Troyens, Achille et Hector, se sont alliés pour vaincre les dieux et assiéger leur forteresse martienne. Ils profitent de la porte ouverte dans l'espace par les Moravecs, qui leur apportent un sérieux appui. Mais la porte commence à se refermer... Sur Terre, les Voynix, qui ont longtemps été les serviteurs des Derniers Hommes, ont soudain entrepris de les massacrer. Les Derniers Hommes, élevés dans la soie, vont devoir apprendre à se battre. Ophu d'Io et Mahnmut sont envoyés sur Terre pour prévenir un cataclysme qui menace la planète depuis des millénaires, sous la forme d'un sous-marin doté de missiles à trous noirs. Harman retrouvera-t-il Ada après un périple qui lui fera traverser la moitié de la Terre sous la conduite d'un Prospero qui n'est peut-être que le fantôme d'une Intelligence Artificielle ? Mêlant avec génie sa vaste culture littéraire à des actions débridées, Dan Simmons fournit...

Olympos

From on high, the gods make sport of the mortals who toil below them. None know the cruelty of these beings better than Ganymede, a beautiful prince who was torn away from his family by the gods' divine hands. Granted immortality, Ganymede now whiles away his days in an inescapable miniature garden for the amusement of the gods, particularly Apollo. But the gods themselves are no strangers to the boredom of eternal life, and as Ganymede quickly discovers, they will do anything to keep themselves entertained, both at his expense and at one another's...

The New Politics of Olympos

Autor: Michael Everett Brumbaugh

Número de Páginas: 321

This book details how Kallimachos' hymns individually and collectively examine the nature of power, authority, and good governance by situating these praise poems at the intersection of a literary tradition stretching back to archaic Greek poetry and a contemporary political discourse on kingship emerging in the early Hellenistic world.

Poppy & Pollo go to Mount Olympos!

Autor: Paul Watkins

Número de Páginas: 64

A beautifully illustrated duo of children’s books engage two pairs of adventurous kids with a quirky exotic wildlife and a humorous re-imagining of the Greek gods Poppy and Pollo, children of the mysterious Zeus, go in search of their long-lost father on Greece’s mighty Mount Olympos, with the help of their oddly assorted but divinely inspired family. Uncle Poseidon, sister Athena and brothers Hermes, Hephaistos, Dionysos and Ares are all on hand to show them the way. Even the delights of sister Aphrodite, the schemes of uncle Hades, or the power of god Zeus himself, do not divert them! Published by Format Books, 2018

Lycian Families in the Hellenistic and Roman Periods

Autor: Selen Kılıç Aslan

Número de Páginas: 415

Can we study the social and legal practices related to families in an ancient society even in the absence of relevant literary and legal sources? In Lycia, thanks to our rich corpus of inscriptions, and the regional funerary epigraphic habit, we can. This book brings together for the first time the full range of Lycian epigraphic evidence, examines it in a systematic way, and investigates three central elements of familial life in the Hellenistic and Roman periods: marriage, children, and inheritance practices; in doing so it briefly touches on a number of prosopographical, demographic, and anthropological questions. The book makes an innovative contribution not only to the history of Lycia but also to the wider study of ancient families.

Before Olympos

Autor: Elmer G. Suhr

Número de Páginas: 216

"Before Olympos explores the aniconic (that is, non-anthropomorphic - therefore, pre-anthropomorphic) origins of certain obviously pre-Hellenic deities in the classical pantheon of Greek gods: Poseidon, Hermes, Eros and, to an extent, Aphrodite...There is conclusive evidence, skillfully marshaled here, that these four are survivals from pre-Hellenic times who were incorporated into the classical pantheon because their cults were too powerful to be ignored when that pantheon was being organized..." -- Page [2] of cover

«Un divertente, ma anche emozionante romanzo d’appendice, fitto di misteri, colpi di scena, rivelazioni. Beatrice Solinas Donghi» Nell’Olimpo leggendario, Ebe, figlia di Zeus e divina coppiera, è convinta che l’eterna giovinezza sia un supplizio e guarda con invidia i suoi fratelli che diventano grandi, mentre lei sembra condannata a rimanere adolescente per sempre. Finché un giorno arriva anche per lei l’amore: è bello, forte, e non ha paura di niente. Ecco una nuova Mitologia in 90 capitoli che sembrano 90 eccitanti puntate di una MITONOVELA. Mai serie televisiva ha contato più interpreti, più amori, più figli segreti, più vendette.
