Modern Middle-Class Housing in Tehran : Reproduction of an Archetype: Episodes of Urbanism 1945-1979 /
:
"In Modern Middle-Class Housing in Tehran - Reproduction of an Archetype, Rana Habibi offers an engaging analysis of the modern urban history of Tehran during the Cold War period: 1945-1979. The book, while arguing about the institutionalism of modernity in the form of modern middle-class housing in Tehran, shows how vernacular archetypes found their way into the construction of new neighborhoods. The trajectory of ideal modernism towards popular modernism, the introduction of modern taste to traditional society through architects, while tracing the path of transnational models in local projects, are all subjects extensively expounded by Rana Habibi through engaging graphical analyses and appealing theoretical interpretations involving five modern Tehran neighborhoods"--

Brill's companion to Ovid /
:
This volume on the Roman poet Ovid (43 BCE - 17 CE) comprises articles by an international group of fourteen scholars. Their contributions cover a wide range of topics, including a biographical essay, a survey of the major manuscripts and textual traditions, and a comprehensive discussion of Ovid's style. The remaining chapters are devoted to focused studies of each of Ovid's major works, with emphasis given where appropriate to the poet's interest in genre and narrative techniques, his engagement with the poetry that preceded his oeuvre, his response to the political, religious, and social realities of Augustan Rome, and his enduring legacy in the European literary traditions of the first 1300 years after his death. Brill's Companion to Ovid combines close analysis of each of Ovid's major works with a comprehensive overview of scholarly trends in the study of Latin poetry and Roman literary culture. It will be a valuable resource for students and scholars of Latin literature alike.

On January 28, Mr. and Mrs. Dimmick, Dr. R. F. S. Starr of the State Department, and the Director visited the Cheops Boat Grave Just when the last of the forty-one main ceiling blocks was raised, thus permitting for the first time a completely unobstructed view of the boat's stern. Two large curved panels from the prow in beautiful condition are directly underneath, and in the south-east corner stands a wooden beam, pierced near the top by a slotshaped hole which still houses a piece of rope forming a clue as to the use of these holes which dot most of the woodwork. Further west, two short, wide, curved boards, lying a few inches apart, are connected by several strands of quarter-inch rope which pass through the oblong slots cut into these boards. Thus it appears that all wooden beams, girders, and planks which show these holes were once laced together with rope. Quantities of it are lying in a pile against the eastern end of the south wall of the chamber, partly covered with matting.
