Abstract

From the ancient Near East to modern-day North America, communal consumption of food and drink punctuates the rhythms of human societies. Feasts serve many social purposes, establishing alliances for war and marriage, mobilizing labor, creating political power and economic advantages, and redistributing wealth. In this collection of fifteen essays, archaeologists and ethnographers explore the material record of food and its consumption as social practice. They examine the locations of roasting pits, hearths, and refuse deposits, or the presence of special decorative ceramics, a

Abstract

En parlant du judaïsme, nous utilisons souvent des expressions courantes telles que le Zohar, le Talmud, la Kippa, l'étoile de David, le Tallith, etc. En évoquant ces mots, nous prenons conscience que finalement nous en ignorons le sens réel. L'objectif de cet ouvrage est de définir ces principales expressions utilisées régulièrement de façon simple et non simpliste. Il s'agit de faire découvrir le judaïsme à travers ces concepts qui, placés les uns après les autres, donnent une idée claire des valeurs du judaïsme. Sont abordés ainsi les sources de la religion juive, les valeurs et les symboles, les étapes de la vie, en passant par le temps d'une semaine (le Chabbat), le temps d'une année (les fêtes), le temps d'une vie (les étapes de la vie), pour conclure avec les principes de foi

Abstract

The scientific knowledge that Irish, English, and continental European scholars nurtured and developed during the years c. AD 500 to c. AD 1200 was assimilated, in the first place, from the wider Roman world of Late Antiquity. Time-reckoning, calendars, and the minute reckonings required to compute the date of Easter, all involved the minutiae of mathematics (incl. the original concept of ‘digital calculation’) and astronomical observation in a truly scientific fashion. In fact, the ‘Dark Ages’ were anything but dark in the fields of mathematics and astronomy.The first Science of Computus conference in Galway in 2006 highlighted the transmission of Late Antique Mathematical Knowledge in Ireland & Europe, the development of astronomy in Early Medieval Ireland & Europe and the role of the Irish in the development of computistical mathematics. The proceedings of that conference should, therefore, appeal equally to those interested in the history of science in Ireland and Europe, and in the origins of present-day mathematical and astronomical ideas.
