Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Hellenistic-Roman Alexandria is often characterized as a cosmopolis; a city that would represent the quintessential cultural crossroads of the ancient world. The aim of this volume is to critically discuss, unwrap and develop this idea. After a set of (theoretical) introductions, first the network Alexandria was part of is explored in a more global, Afro-Eurasian sense than is traditionally done. What about Alexandrias connections with China, India, Central Asia, the Arabian Peninsula, the African Sahara and (western) Europe? Second, the relation between the global node that was Alexandria and the many processes of innovation that characterized the city during the Hellenistic-Roman era are investigated through a variety of specifically selected case studies: from medicine to poetry and from the citys famous tombs to its exotic animals. Global dynamics prove to be at the core of Hellenistic-Roman Alexandria and its innovative character. LAlexandrie hellenistique et romaine est souvent caracterisee comme une cosmopolis, une ville qui representerait la quintessence des carrefours culturels du monde antique. Le but de ce volume est daborder, deployer et developper avec un oeil critique cette idee. Apres une serie dintroductions (theoriques), le reseau dont Alexandrie faisait partie est dabord explore dans un sens plus global et afro-eurasien que ce qui a ete fait traditionnellement. Quen est-il des relations dAlexandrie avec la Chine, lInde, lAsie centrale, la peninsule arabique, le Sahara et lEurope (occidentale)? Dans un second temps, la relation entre ce noeud du reseau global quetait Alexandrie et les nombreux processus dinnovation qui ont caracterise la ville a lepoque hellenistique et romaine est examinee a travers une serie detudes de cas specifiquement selectionnees: de la medecine a la poesie et des celebres tombes de la ville a ses animaux exotiques.
