English summary: Names, images, and narratives are intimately related and frequently polysemous. As pieces of information on the gods, they convey fragments of knowledge and attempts to interpret the multifaceted complexity of the divine world. In what Robert Parker describes as an "archipelago", images and narratives are like compasses used to approach the mapping of the gods. The different contributions collected in this volume, dealing with the Greek and the Semitic worlds (the two main areas of the "Mapping Ancient Polytheisms" project), explore connections but also discrepancies between these different semantics, in order to highlight specificities and commonalities in the onomastic and iconographic languages. French description: Les noms, les images et les recits sont intimement lies et volontiers polysemiques. En tant qu'elements d'information sur les dieux, ils vehiculent des fragments de connaissance et constituent autant de tentatives d'interpretation de la complexite multiforme du monde divin. Dans ce que Robert Parker decrit comme un archipel, les images et les recits sont comme des boussoles qui facilitent la cartographie des dieux. Les differentes contributions rassemblees dans ce volume, traitant des mondes grec et semitique (les deux principaux domaines abordes dans le projet Mapping Ancient Polytheisms), explorent les connexions mais aussi les divergences existant entre ces differentes semantiques, afin de mettre en evidence les specificites et les points communs entre langage onomastique et langage iconographique.

The Arab media landscape has undergone fundamental changes since the 1990s, which has affected how information and coverage are transferred. While new information and communication technologies emerge, such as Arab satellite television and blogging, censorship is adapting to these new possibilities of communication, which in turn affects the media's message and resultant public opinion. Arnim Heinemann is a researcher at the Orient-Institut Beirut. Olfa Lamloum is a researcher at the Institut Franais du Proche-Orient, Beirut. Anne Franoise Weber is a program manager at the Beirut office of the Friedrich Ebert Foundation.

In the Name of Identity is as close to summer reading as philosophy gets. It is a personal, sometimes even intimate, account of identity-in-the-world, not a treatise on the thorny metaphysics of identity. A novelist by trade, Amin Maalouf is a fluid writer, and he is aided by Barbara Bray's award-winning translation. His aim is to illuminate the roots of violence and hatred, which he sees in tribalistic forms of identity. He argues that our convictions and notions of identity--whether cultural, religious, national, or ethnic--are socially habituated and frequently dangerous. We'd give them up, he argues, if we thought more closely about them.Though the book has been heralded as radical and surprising, Maalouf essentially espouses an Enlightenment sensibility, a faith in the brotherhood of man. He is a believer in progress, arguing that "the wind of globalisation, while it could lead us to disaster, could also lead us to success." In fact, he envisions a globalized world in which our local identities are subordinated to a broader "allegiance to the human community itself." Maalouf wants us to retain our distinctiveness, but he wants it subsumed under the nave of common understanding. --Eric de Place

Strabo of Amasia, a Greek geographer of the Augusto-Tiberian period, observed the Roman world of his time. He collected his observations in his magnum opus, the Geography, which he described as a 'Kolossourgia', a colossal statue of a work. This term reflects not only the work's size in seventeen books, but also its multi-faceted nature, composed of many different elements like the detailing on a statue. In this 2005 volume an international team of Strabo scholars explores those details, discussing the cultural, political, historical and geographical questions addressed in the Geography. The collection offers a number of different approaches to the study of Strabo, from traditional literary and historical perspectives to newer material and feminist readings. These diverse themes and approaches inform each other to provide a wide-ranging exploration of Strabo's work, making the book essential reading for students of ancient history and ancient geography.
