It presents historians with the challenge of seeing beyond traditional stereotypes (wealth and witches, horses and hospitality) that have coloured perceptions of its people from antiquity to the present day. It also presents a complex and illuminating interaction between polis and ethnos identity. In daily life, most Thessalians primarily operated within, and identified with, their specific polis; at the same time, the regional dimension - being Thessalian - was rarely out of sight for long. It manifested itself in stories told, in deities worshipped, in modes of political co-operation, in language, rituals, sites and objects.Chapter by chapter, this book follows the emergence, development and adaptation of Thessalian regional identity from the Archaic period to the early second century BC. In so doing, rather than rejecting ancient stereotypes as a mere inconvenience for the historian, it considers the constant dialogue between Thessalian self-presentation and depictions of the Thessalian character by other Greeks. It also confronts some of the prejudices and assumptions still influencing modern approaches to studying the region. All in all, the reader is invited to see Thessaly not as a region of marginal significance in Greek history, but as occupying a central role in many aspects of ancient cultural and political discourse.An Open Access edition will be available on publication. 410 0$aLiverpool studies in ancient history. 517 $aBlessed Thessaly 606 $aAncient Greece$2bicssc 606 $aAncient history$2bicssc 606 $aAncient World$2bicssc 606 $aArchaeology by period / region$2bicssc 606 $aBCE period - Protohistory$2bicssc 610 00$aThessaly 610 00$aancient Greece 610 00$apoleis 610 00$ademocracy 610 00$aethnicity 615 7$aAncient Greece 615 7$aAncient history 615 7$aAncient World 615 7$aArchaeology by period / region 615 7$aBCE period - Protohistory 676 $a938.2 700 $aAston$b Emma$0612630 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910800148503321 996 $aMakaira Thessalia$93878452 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03184nam 2200625Ia 450 001 9910966748003321 005 20250728170444.0 010 $a0-88385-955-6 035 $a(CKB)2670000000205163 035 $a(EBL)3330416 035 $a(OCoLC)923220108 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000577632 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11376743 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000577632 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10562363 035 $a(PQKB)11199582 035 $a(UkCbUP)CR9780883859551 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3330416 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10729387 035 $a(OCoLC)929120334 035 $a(RPAM)12220236 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3330416 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000205163 100 $a20001102d2000 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 14$aThe geometry of numbers /$fC.D.

Lax -- The Closest Packing of Convex Bodies -- Brief Biographies -- Solutions and Hints. 330 $aThe Geometry of Numbers presents a self-contained introduction to the geometry of numbers, beginning with easily understood questions about lattice-points on lines, circles, and inside simple polygons in the plane. Little mathematical expertise is required beyond an acquaintance with those objects and with some basic results in geometry. The reader moves gradually to theorems of Minkowski and others who succeeded him. On the way, he or she will see how this powerful approach gives improved approximations to irrational numbers by rationals, simplifies arguments on ways of representing integers as sums of squares, and provides a natural tool for attacking problems involving dense packings of spheres. An appendix by Peter Lax gives a lovely geometric proof of the fact that the Gaussian integers form a Euclidean domain, characterizing the Gaussian primes, and proving that unique factorization holds there. In the process, he provides yet another glimpse into the power of a geometric approach to number theoretic problems. 410 0$aAnneli Lax new mathematical library ;$vv. 41. 606 $aGeometry of numbers 606 $aNumber theory 615 0$aGeometry of numbers. 615 0$aNumber theory. 676 $a512/.75 700 $aOlds$b C.
