THE PUBLISHED ELEPHANT MEDALLIONS --APPENDIX B. SOME POSSIBLE FORGERIES OF THE LARGE MEDALLION --APPENDIX C. THE 1973 IRAQ HOARD --INDEXTo all those who witnessed his extraordinary conquests, from Albania to India, Alexander the Great appeared invincible. How Alexander himself promoted this appearance-how he abetted the belief that he enjoyed divine favor and commanded even the forces of nature against his enemies-is the subject of Frank L. Holt's absorbing book. Solid evidence for the "supernaturalized" Alexander lies in a rare series of medallions that depict the triumphant young king at war against the elephants, archers, and chariots of Rajah Porus of India at the Battle of the Hydaspes River. Recovered from Afghanistan and Iraq in sensational and sometimes perilous circumstances, these ancient artifacts have long animated the modern historical debate about Alexander. Holt's book, the first devoted to the mystery of these ancient medallions, takes us into the history of their discovery and interpretation, into the knowable facts of their manufacture and meaning, and, ultimately, into the king's own psyche and his frightening theology of war. The result is a valuable analysis of Alexander history and myth, a vivid account of numismatics, and a spellbinding look into the age-old mechanics of megalomania.Hellenistic culture and society ;44.Coins, AncientCoins, GreekElephants in numismaticsElectronic books.Coins, Ancient.Coins, Greek.Elephants in numismatics.737/.22/0938Holt Frank Lee171564MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910450055803321Alexander the Great and the mystery of the elephant medallions2469454UNINA02950 am 2200649 n 450 9910583200103321202201032-271-14238-52-271-08772-42-271-08774-010.4000/books.editionscnrs.51887(CKB)3710000000878201(FrMaCLE)OB-editionscnrs-51887(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/91810(PPN)267945442(EXLCZ)99371000000087820120220713j|||||||| ||| 0freuu||||||m||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierRonald Dworkin ou la valeur de l’égalité /Alain PolicarParis CNRS Éditions20221 online resource (224 p.) CNRS Philosophie2-271-08308-7 Originale et engagée, l’œuvre de Ronald Dworkin (1931-2013) s’impose désormais à l’égal de celles de John Rawls et de Jürgen Habermas. Connu d’abord comme philosophe du droit, avec entre autres Prendre les droits au sérieux (1977), il a développé une philosophie politique propre, notamment dans Justice pour les hérissons (2011). C’est ce parcours de pensée que retrace Alain Policar. Outre sa puissante réflexion sur le droit proposant une alternative au positivisme et au réalisme juridiques, Dworkin opte pour le choix moral de l’égalité et tente de trouver un fondement métaphysique aux valeurs qu’il défend. La volonté de ne pas séparer le droit, la morale et la politique est une de ses positions constantes. Elle lui permet d’apporter des réponses concrètes aux interrogations des démocraties contemporaines (avortement, discrimination positive, justice sociale). La première monographie en langue française consacrée à ce philosophe américain, actif débatteur et interlocuteur des plus grands auteurs contemporains, dont John Rawls et Isaiah Berlin à propos de la compatibilité de la liberté et de l’égalité.RONALD DWORKIN OU LA VALEUR DE L'EGALITE PhilosophyPolitical Sciencedémocratiejustice socialeégalitéDworkindroitmorale politiquedémocratiejustice socialeégalitéDworkindroitmorale politiquePhilosophyPolitical Sciencedémocratiejustice socialeégalitéDworkindroitmorale politiquePolicar Alain942843FR-FrMaCLEBOOK9910583200103321Ronald Dworkin ou la valeur de l’égalité3025283UNINA
