Diana, dea della luna e della caccia, occupa un posto importante nei mondi delle corti europee e nei processi di appropriazione e rinnovamento degli antichi apparati mitologici che li percorrono. Sotto il suo nume sorge nel cuore del Seicento la Venaria Reale, «palazzo di piacere e di caccia» del circuito delle residenze sabaude. Il volume, attraverso un excursus interdisciplinare, affronta vari episodi degli sviluppi del mito.

El DILAGE es un diccionario latino/latino-español especializado en unos campos concretos de la medicina y basado en un corpus muy amplio de autores médicos que van desde el romano Celso (siglo I d.C.) hasta el portugués Rodrigo de Castro (1603). La selección de fuentes ha obedecido a su relevancia y difusión históricas en el campo de trabajo del diccionario, de forma que las más de 150 obras despojadas pueden dar buena cuenta de los objetivos propuestos.

Collective work of contrastive lexicography that brings together some outstanding Iberian specialists in the fields of Latin Middle Ages and mediaeval lexicography. The 13 contributions focus on a common subject: the landscape and the words ‒ mainly Latin, but also Romance ‒ referring to it, studying it from different points of view and from different Spanish mediaeval Latin sources: the charters from Asturias-León, Navarre, Catalonia... or the Papal Bulls for Spanish institutions, as well as some particular works. The term ‘landscape' is used here in a broad sense: it is the territory, which can be a political area, but also a natural or geographical space; it is a place that may be someone's property and which may have been enclosed or defined in some way; it might be a rural area or an urban space; there, the labour, economic activities, constructions or destructive practices of man may be present, moulding and transforming it; besides, it may be the space perceived or felt subjectively by those who live there or who look at it. What is more, the term ‘landscape' implies observation, which is what all the contributors have done: they have examined, in detail, the space that has been drawn with words in the mediaeval Latin sources from Spain, as well as the very words which describe it. The work intends to contribute to a better knowledge of the valuable mediaeval Latin (and Romance) vocabulary and a closer approach to the medieval landscape through the words and concepts, sometimes evasive, they name.

A major new economic history of the ancient Mediterranean world.
In The Open Sea, J. G. Manning offers a major new history of economic life in the Mediterranean world in the Iron Age, from Phoenician trading down to the Hellenistic era and the beginning of Rome's imperial supremacy. Drawing on a wide range of ancient sources and the latest social theory, Manning suggests that a search for an illusory single "ancient economy" has obscured the diversity of lived experience in the Mediterranean world, including both changes in political economies over time and differences in cultural conceptions of property and money. At the same time, he shows how the region's economies became increasingly interconnected during this period.
