The coins of Herod : a modern analysis and die classification /
:
Herod, ruler of Judea at a pivotal time (40-4 BCE) in the region's history, was Rome's most famous client king. In this volume, Herod's coinage benefits from a comprehensive reappraisal. The coins and dies have been thoroughly examined, resulting in innovative iconographic and technological interpretations. Study of the coins' presence in hoards, their archaeological contexts and geographical distribution, together with other typological, epigraphic and numismatic observations, have aided in establishing that all of the types were minted in Jerusalem. A new relative chronology of Herod's dated and undated coins is the most important by-product of this study. Finally, an attempt is made to peg this seriation to known events within the king's reign.

The coinage of Herod Antipas : a study and die classification of the earliest coins of Galilee /
:
The Coinage of Herod Antipas provides a comprehensive, multifaceted and up-to-date re-examination of the coins of Herod Antipas, the tetrarch of Galilee and Peraea between 4/3 BCE and 39/40 CE. Kogon and Fontanille classify about 800 coins by obverse and reverse dies. From this die classification they generate, for the first time ever for this tetrarch, about 300 composite die images. In addition, the authors examine both technical aspects of the coins (e.g. metrology, mint output) and non-technical aspects (e.g. inscriptions, iconography). They also review the geographic distribution of provenanced coins. Through this analysis of the coins of Herod Antipas, Kogon and Fontanille provide a greater understanding of the Sitz im Leben of first century Galilee.

Index of verb forms in Thucydides /
:
This index lists all verb forms in Thucydides, with the total number of occurrences of the verbs and crossreferences to the compounds. Two appendices provide lists of verb forms that are attested in the manuscripts but have been removed by conjecture from the printed text and of all attested variant readings. In providing easy access to the verb system as it is attested in Thucydides, it is an invaluable tool for research into the verb system in Thucydides in particular and in Ancient Greek in general, on matters of lexicography or morphology, and more particularly on various aspects of the semantics of the verb system, such as the use of aspectual forms and that of the moods and voices.

Voies vers l'autre : Dupin - Bonnefoy - Noël - Guillevic /
:
Si la poésie contemporaine continue à sonder ses propres carences, à creuser sans répit tout ce qui se prolonge en elle comme absence et manque, ses humbles conquêtes ne s'affir-ment le plus souvent qu'au moment d'une immense dissolution qui oppose à tout geste d'appropriation définitive une communion fuyante, ouverte et vitale. Dans la trame déliée de l'écriture se dessine non point l'image achevée, le reflet immobilisé de l'autre, mais quelques traces de son bref, de son infixable passage qui rejoint dans le monde la sombre vérité, l'en aller irrévocable, de toute existence mortelle. Voie vers l'autre, la poésie demeure de nos jours voie terrestre, voie incertaine, qui arrache l'être à la fixité et aux fixations du moi pour qu'il s'atteigne, sans cesse refait, dans la précarité immédiate de ce qui surgit, s'offre et s'efface. Notre étude interroge les œuvres de quatre poètes qui avancent courageusement dans cette voie, qui mesurent entre soi et l'autre, signe et présence, idée et monde, non seulement ruptures et écarts, mais l'espace tremblant d'un entre-deux susceptible de se muer subitement et comme inauguralement en cri et accès.

Two studies in the semantics of the verb in classical Greek /
:
The first part of this volume offers an analysis of the use and distribution of the perfect in the classical period of ancient Greek, based on the complete relevant material in Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides (tragic poetry), Aristophanes (comic poetry), Thucydides, Xenophon's Anabasis (historical prose), Lysias (rhetorical prose) and Xenophon's Opuscula (various prose types). The material is made accessible by several indices. In the second part insights gained in the field of discourse analysis are applied to the description of the contrast between aorist and present verb forms. The author has endeavoured to provide an explicit account of the actual functioning of these verb forms in their contexts . Special care has been given to reducing technical jargon in the interest of those who feel themselves classicists rather than professional linguists.
