The most famous conspiracy of silence in the history of antiquity is examined here by one of the three archaeologists entrusted by the Archaeological Society of Athens with the final excavations of the Sanctuary. He traces the history of the cult in the archaeological remains, from the first traces of habitation at the site in the Middle Bronze Age (around 1900 B.C.) to its final grandeur and decay in Imperial Roman times. A guided tour of the Museum at Eleusis, illustrated with photographs of objects in the Museum, as well as air views, plans, and detailed photographs of the ruins closely correlated with the text, takes into account the needs of the visitor at the site as well as the reader at home. Originally published in 1961. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

The Sanctuary of Eleusis, near Athens, was the center of a religious cult that endured for nearly two thousand years and whose initiates came from all parts of the civilized world. Looking at the tendency to "see visions," C. Kerenyi examines the Mysteries of Eleusis from the standpoint not only of Greek myth but also of human nature. Kerenyi holds that the yearly autumnal "mysteries" were based on the ancient myth of Demeter's search for her ravished daughter Persephone--a search that he equates not only with woman's quest for completion but also with every person's pursuit of identity. As he explores what the content of the mysteries may have been for those who experienced them, he draws on the study of archaeology, objects of art, and religious history, and suggests rich parallels from other mythologies.

Fra i vari culti misterici dell'antichità, nessuno mai raggiunse una fama e al contempo una segretezza ed una impenetrabilità ad occhi profani pari a quella dei Misteri Eleusini. Tanto che è stato affermato dai più autorevoli studiosi che in essi poggiano le basi stesse della cultura e della tradizione occidentali. Se corretto parlare di Misteri Eleusini, si dovrebbe - in senso più ampio - parlare di eleusinità, per rendere l'idea della portata di una tradizione che ha saputo perpetuarsi in maniera ininterrotta dalla più remota antichità fino ai nostri giorni, attraversando indenne come un fiume carsico i secoli bui del Medio Evo, fino a riemergere in tutto il suo splendore nel Rinascimento. Prendendo atto delle limitazioni della saggistica sull'argomento e della totale mancanza in essa di una prospettiva esoterica ed iniziatica, Nicola Bizzi ha deciso di mettere mano a quest'opera, frutto di decenni di studi e di un particolare percorso personale. L'autore, infatti, oltre ad essere uno storico nella vita profana, appartiene per tradizione familiare e per esperienza iniziatica, alla tradizione misterica degli Eleusini Madre.

Art In Athens During The Peloponnesian War written by Olga Palagia and has been published by Cambridge University Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2009-04-06 with Art categories.

This book examines the effects of the Peloponnesian War on the arts of Athens and the historical and artistic contexts in which this art was produced. During this period, battle scenes dominated much of the monumental art, while large numbers of memorials to the war dead were erected. The temple of Athena Nike, built to celebrate Athenian victories in the first part of the war, carries a rich sculptural program illustrating military victories. For the first time, the arts in Athens expressed an interest in the afterlife, with many sculptured dedications to Demeter and Kore, who promised initiates special privileges in the underworld. Not surprisingly, there were also dedications to healer gods. After the Sicilian disaster, a retrospective tendency can be noted in both art and politics, which provided reassurance in a time of crisis. Bringing together essays by an international team of art historians and historians, this is the first book to focus on the new themes and new kinds of art introduced in Athens as a result of the thirty-year war.
