Hardcover. Zustand: vg. First edition. Folio. XLVI, 410, [2]pp (text), 82pp (plates). Original photo-illustrated dust-jacket over brown cloth, with gold lettering on spine and front cover. Frontispiece. Until recently, the South Caucasus was a virtual terra incognita on Western archaeological maps of southwest Asia. The conspicuous absence of marked places - of site names, toponyms, and topography - gave the impression of a region distant, unknown, and vacant. The Joint American-Armenian Project for the Archaeology and Geography of Ancient Transcaucasian Societies (Project ArAGATS) was founded in 1998 to explore this terrain. The investigations were guided by two overarching goals: to illuminate the social and political transformations central to the region's unique (pre)history and to explore the broader intellectual implications of collaboration between the rich archaeological traditions of Armenia (former U.S.S.R.) and the United States. This volume provides the first encompassing report on the ongoing studies of Project ArAGATS, detailing the general context of contemporary archaeological research in the South Caucasus as well as the specific context of the regional investigations in the Tsaghkahovit Plain of central Armenia. The book opens with detailed examinations of the history of archaeology in the South Caucasus, the theoretical problems that currently orient archaeological research, and a comprehensive reevaluation of the material bases for regional chronology and periodization. The work then provides the complete results of the regional investigations in the Tsaghkahovit Plain, including the findings of the first systematic pedestrian survey ever conducted in the Caucasus. Thanks to the results presented in this volume, and Project ArAGATS's ongoing excavations in the area, the Tsaghkahovit Plain is today the best-known archaeological region in the South Caucasus. The present volume thus provides archaeologists with both an orientation to the prehistory of the South Caucasus and the complete findings of the first phase of Project ArAGATS's field investigations. Dust-jacket, binding and interior in overall very good condition.

Interior with minor signs of wear. Very good condition overall.; Catalogue from the exhibition jointly organised by the British Museum and the Oriental Ceramic Society, London held at New Japanese Galleries, British Museum 6th July to 4th November 1990.; Between the mid-17th and mid-18th centuries Japanese and Chinese porcelains were a notable sight in the great houses of Europe; amid the general enthusiasm for things oriental, princes had become major collectors of porcelain, and decoration was adapted for its display. Japanese porcelain was sought by collectors during its period of production, for instance by Augustus the Strong, much of whose vast collection is today still at Dresden. Here, over 350 pieces have been included from many of the oldest and most famous collections in Europe to demonstrate the range of imported Japanese wares and to show both the spread of the fashion for collecting porcelain and the styles that had greatest effect on porcelain production in Europe. It was the import of huge quantities of Chinese blue-and-white wares in the first half of the 17th century that ensured the onset 'oriental mania' in Europe. However, in about 1659, after the interruption of Chinese output at the fall of the Ming dynasty in 1644, the full export trade in Japanese porcelain began. From the palette of the early Arita enamellers gradually arose the sparing, asymmetrical designs and fresh, brilliant colours that we call 'Kakiemon'. From the same beginnings grew the distinctive style known as 'Imari', a term which embraces both the early enamelled ware and the increasingly large and richly enamelled and gilt pieces that followed. The demand for such wares can be verified by considering the syles of porcelain most imitated (and adapted) by new porcelain factories in Europe. Many wares were later fitted in Europe with mounts of silver or gilt bronze, often to adapt them to elaborate decorative schemes. The 'delfware' pottery of Holland and other countries now briefly followed the Japanese. Then, from 1709, there was fine quality porcelain produced at Meissen, Kakiemon shapes and designs were much copied there and in France, notably at Chantilly and St Cloud, and by around 1750 the fashion was current also in England at the new factories of Chelsea, Bow and Worcester. The effect of Japanese, as of Chinese, porcelain in Europe, was such that certain elements of Japanese styles became firmly incorporated into the European repertoire. By charing these styles, Porcelain of Palaces casts new light on the early development of European porcelain.

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. 1st Edition. 2 volume set in blue cloth slip-case. 439 pages fully illustrated in colour, numerous line drawings section on documentary inscriptions with translations hardback with dust jacket (slipcased) 36 x 26 cm. 'This two-part volume contains a large and important group of objects and manuscripts that may be broadly categorised as scientific instruments, tools or magical implements. Many objects of this kind have never before been systematically catalogued, and this volume brings together much information previously scattered to present a corpus of material for future comparative study. The astronomical instruments are those primarily connected with the fundamental concerns of Islamic astronomy determining the times of prayer and the direction of Mecca and the teaching and practice of cosmology and astrology. The Collection includes important individual pieces, among them a fine celestial globe made in 1285 6 and a unique Judeo-Arabic astrolabe of c. 1300. Another 218 entries include medical manuscripts, magic bowls, amulets and other magical or geomantic devices that reflect different aspects of medieval Islamic medical care, while a group of mortars, a selection from the large collection of locks, and miscellaneous tools such as scissors, scales and weights, complete this survey of objects which embody the varied preoccupations of Islamic culture. The information presented includes a ground-breaking study of leather workers in medieval Iran.'.
