Ceramics of the Merv Oasis Recycling the City

Our knowledge of many groups or periods has benefited from systematic ceramic analysis however as yet the Sasanian Empire of ancient Persia (224-651 AD) has not be subjected to the same examination. Merv an expansive ancient city located in an oasis in the Central Asian steppes was for millennia a gateway for travelers and traders along the Silk Road between east and west. Puschnigg’s detailed study of Merv’s Sasanian pottery creates a benchmark for other work on this ceramic corpus. She dissects the frequency dates wares and profiles of hundreds of securely excavated pieces and compares them with the finds from earlier Russian studies generally unavailable to western researchers. Puschnigg uses this material to provide insights into the social and economic dimensions of the Sasanian world as well as providing researchers with a catalog of typical shapes and wares. | Ceramics of the Merv Oasis Recycling the City

The Art of Dining in Medieval Byzantium

Thousands of intact ceramic bowls and plates as well as fragments made in the medieval Byzantine empire survive to this day. Decorated with figural and non-figural imagery applied in a variety of techniques and adorned with colourful paints and glazes the vessels can tell us much about those who owned them and those who looked at them. In addition to innumerable ceramic vessels a handful of precious metal bowls and plates survive from the period. Together these objects make up the art of dining in medieval Byzantium. This art of dining was effervescent at turns irreverent and deadly serious visually stunning and fun. It is suggestive of ways in which those viewing the objects used a quotidian and biologically necessary (f)act – that of eating – to reflect on their lives and deaths their aspirations and their realities. This book examines the ceramic and metal vessels in terms of the information offered on the foods eaten the foods desired and their status; the spectacle of the banquet; the relationship between word and image in medieval Byzantium; the dangers of taste; the emergence of new moral and social ideals; and the use of dining as a tool in constructing and enforcing hierarchy. This book is of appeal to scholarly and non-scholarly audiences interested in the art and material culture of the medieval period and in the social history of food and eating.

Souvenirs The Material Cultre of Tourism

This title was first published in 2000: Souvenirs broadly conceived are generally thought to be the material counterpart of travels events relationships and memories of all kinds. The material items classed as souvenirs discussed in this text have memorial functions usually connected with the owner's travels. But not all of the items are souvenirs of tourism; they are also souvenirs of other past phenomena such as political events (suffragettes) colonial history (India) former artistic pre-eminence (Awaji Ningyo puppetry) or former ways of life (South American ceramic archaisms). The authors do not necessarily focus on material souvenirs in their memorial function as prompters of memory. They also use their case studies as starting points for the discussion of many interesting contemporary phenomena such as cottage industries for economic development in Mexico and Ainu as devices to invigorate or maintain artistic practices as emblems of cultural conformity (Surrealists) or as symbolic weapons in national and international political arguments. A key focus of many of the chapters is the question of meaning: what is the meaning of any particular souvenir or collection and for whom does it bear that meaning? | Souvenirs The Material Cultre of Tourism
