Channel: ANAMED Library
Date: 2022-01-13

ANAMED Library Talks, continue on January 11, 2021 with Andrea U. De Giorgi and A.Asa Eger. In this talk they will discuss their new book “Antioch. A History.” In particular, it will foreground the theoretical and methodological underpinnings that led to the diachronic presentation of Antioch as well as the city’s evolution through the ages. How a blend of archaeological, textual, epigraphic, environmental, and legacy data ushered in new vistas onto a narrative of settlement that was not bookended by the Islamic conquest is the main thread of the conversation. The talk will be moderated by Charles Gates.
