This book investigates the design and construction methods imported by the Italian maitres d'oeuvre active in Egypt between the nineteenth and the twentieth centuries, particularly in Alexandria; it also includes an in-depth study of the work of the architect Mario Rossi whose most important work was the design of mosques. His personality and work, reconstructed in their space-time context, are taken as case studies based on these and other residential buildings in Alexandria and elsewhere. This study defines two prevalent approaches which swing between a tendency to import ideas from Italy and a tendency to assimilate local tradition. Convinced that contemporary architecture must also develop its own stylistic and constructional characteristics in accordance with multiple local traditions, the Author shows how in Rossi's work the complex global phenomenon of eclecticism - as an historic moment of transition and transformation animated by the search for a "new style" capable of being defined as "modern" and profoundly marked by new technologies and materials imported from Europe - was the expression of a "crisis" in the language of building which she nevertheless believes appeared to be resisted by the cultural continuity of typological processes.

This masterful history of the monumental architecture of Alexandria, as well as of the rest of Egypt, encompasses an entire millennium—from the city’s founding by Alexander the Great in 331 B.C. to the years just after the Islamic conquest of A.D. 642. Long considered lost beyond recall, the architecture of ancient Alexandria has until now remained mysterious. But here Judith McKenzie shows that it is indeed possible to reconstruct the city and many of its buildings by means of meticulous exploration of archaeological remains, written sources, and an array of other fragmentary evidence. The book approaches its subject at the macro- and the micro-level: from city-planning, building types, and designs to architectural style. It addresses the interaction between the imported Greek and native Egyptian traditions; the relations between the architecture of Alexandria and the other cities and towns of Egypt as well as the wider Mediterranean world; and Alexandria’s previously unrecognized role as a major source of architectural innovation and artistic influence. Lavishly illustrated with new plans of the city in the Ptolemaic, Roman, and Byzantine periods; reconstruction drawings; and photographs, the book brings to life the ancient city and uncovers the true extent of its architectural legacy in the Mediterranean world.

Michael Livingston's The Shards of Heaven reveals the hidden magic behind the history we know, and commences a war greater than any mere mortal battle Julius Caesar is dead, assassinated on the senate floor, and the glory that is Rome has been torn in two. Octavian, Caesar's ambitious great-nephew and adopted son, vies with Marc Antony and Cleopatra for control of Caesar's legacy. As civil war rages from Rome to Alexandria, and vast armies and navies battle for supremacy, a secret conflict may shape the course of history. Juba, Numidian prince and adopted brother of Octavian, has embarked on a ruthless quest for the Shards of Heaven, lost treasures said to possess the very power of the gods-or the one God. Driven by vengeance, Juba has already attained the fabled Trident of Poseidon, which may also be the staff once wielded by Moses. Now he will stop at nothing to obtain the other Shards, even if it means burning the entire world to the ground. Caught up in these cataclysmic events, and the hunt for the Shards, are a pair of exiled Roman legionnaires, a Greek librarian of uncertain loyalties, assassins, spies, slaves . . . and the ten-year-old daughter of Cleopatra herself.
