Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Vergilbt / ausgeblichen. This volume of essays is the first dedicated to ancient communications, marking a significant milestone in the field. Previous studies have largely focused on communication within the Roman Empire, but this collection features 18 essays that highlight the broader importance and…potential of the topic. Contributors from diverse disciplines, including art history, Assyriology, Classics, and Egyptology, explore communication not just as a means of information exchange, but also as a tool for religion, commerce, and culture. The essays cover various communication purposes, such as propaganda, celebration, profit, and administration, addressing networks and types of communication, as well as religious and imperial interactions. The geographical and temporal scope spans the Near East, Greece, and Rome over approximately 2,000 years, from the second millennium BCE to the rise of Christianity in the late Roman Empire. The essays are evenly divided among the Near East, Greece, Greece and Rome together, and the Roman Empire with its Persian and Indian rivals. Topics range from cultural history, such as Greek music and Roman art, to economic history in Mesopotamia and Rome, and traditional historical themes like diplomacy and war in the Mediterranean. Each essay incorporates recent developments in communication theory, enriching the understanding of ancient modes of communication.

Hardback. Zustand: New. Mercury's Wings: Exploring Modes of Communication in the Ancient World is the first-ever volume of essays devoted to ancient communications. Comparable previous work has been mainly confined to articles on aspects of communication in the Roman empire. This set of 18 essays with an introduction by the co-e…ditors marks a milestone, therefore, that demonstrates the importance and rich further potential of the topic. The authors, who include art historians, Assyriologists, Classicists and Egyptologists, take the broad view of communications as a vehicle not just for the transmission of information, but also for the conduct of religion, commerce, and culture. Encompassed within this scope are varied purposes of communication such as propaganda and celebration, as well as profit and administration. Each essay deals with a communications network, or with a means or type of communication, or with the special features of religious communication or communication in and among large empires.The spatial, temporal, and cultural boundaries of the volume take in the Near East as well as Greece and Rome, and cover a period of some 2,000 years beginning in the second millennium BCE and ending with the spread of Christianity during the last centuries of the Roman Empire in the West. In all, about one quarter of the essays deal with the Near East, one quarter with Greece, one quarter with Greece and Rome together, and one quarter with the Roman empire and its Persian and Indian rivals. Some essays concern topics in cultural history, such as Greek music and Roman art; some concern economic history in both Mesopotamia and Rome; and some concern traditional historical topics such as diplomacy and war in the Mediterranean world. Each essay draws on recent work in the theory of communications.
