Comparing Greek Colonies: Mobility and Settlement Consolidation from Southern Italy to the Black Sea (8th – 6th Century BC). Proceedings of the International Conference (Rome, 7.–9.11.2018)
The need for a "new" book on Greek colonization arose to analyse this phenomenon as a long-term process in a wide geographic area. The events related to individual cities and regions, although geographically very distant from each other, are linked through an articulated network of material and immaterial relations and have to be considered as part of a broader mobility process in a Mediterranean perspective. The intention of "Comparing Greek Colonies" is to bring geographically and culturally distant regions such as Southern Italy/Sicily and the Black Sea, closer together, not merely to find "similarities and differences", but to broaden the scholars' perspective and overcome existing, generalizing, and biased models, that are often rooted in local scientific traditions. The proceedings of the international conference "Comparing Greek Colonies. Mobility and Settlement Consolidation from Southern Italy to the Black Sea (8th- 6th century BC)", 7.-9.11.2018 in Rome, are structured around three core topics (economic system; relationships with the indigenous populations; social and territorial systems) that constitute the cornerstones of the political formation of the polis in the Archaic period and for its development during the Classical and Hellenistic Ages.… (plus d'informations)
The editors have produced an extensive and multi-faceted book on an extensive and multi-faceted subject. It results from a conference held in Rome in November 2018 on (so-called) Greek colonisation. The nearly 600 pages address a range of debates that have emerged in recent decades. As the title indicates, the book’s main goal is promoting dialogue between geographical regions, namely Southern Italy and the Black Sea. The editors thus aim to fill a gap in research on Greek colonisation since the West and the East are mostly worked on separately by specialists for the respective regions. This requires a framework for organising the case studies to encourage comparative reading. The size of the book adds to the challenge, but the editors have solved this problem well by including both a general preface and concise introductions to each section in order to guide the reader. At the same time, with only four main sections, the volume is not too fragmented, making it easy to use. A detailed and carefully compiled index of locations also promotes the accessibility of the information provided. The structure thus facilitates the reader’s own comparisons between the case studies presented.
