D'Orient et d'Occident : mélanges offerts à Pierre Aupert

From Greece to Gaul, via Cyprus and Amathus, the work of Pierre Aupert has ranged widely in both geographical and chronological terms. His breadth of vision, demonstrated by his interest in architecture, epigraphy and numismatics, whether as a member of the French School in Athens, as a Director of Research in the CNRS, linked to the Institute for Research in Ancient Architecture, has led him to explore many different aspects of ancient societies. 

The forty participants who have contributed to this volume in his honour invite the reader on a voyage through many facets of ancient civilisation. Concentrating on three themes, Greece, Cyprus and the Orient and Italy and its western provinces, they follow the paths marked out by Pierre Aupert throughout his career.
