A Re-examination of a Mosaic from Bulgaria Representing Medusa, the Winds, and Other Figures
This article is a sequel to an earlier article of mine in JMR 15, 2020, dealing with mosaic imagery of figural content in Room 10 of the Villa Armira, an aristocratic residence of the Roman imperial era located in southeastern Bulgaria. The present study examines the large pavement of Antonine date decorating a different space in that building, Room 6, which was identified as a triclinium by the excavator, J. Mladenova. Various features of this m…
Representations of Music and the Dance in Late Roman Art
Music and the dance are an important theme represented in various artistic media of the Late Roman and Early Byzantine periods, including mosaic pavements and decorative arts such as silver metalwork, woven textiles, and carved ivories. A popular aspect of this theme is imagery of the Dionysiac thiasos, with members of the wine god’s entourage making merry by dancing and sounding crotala or cymbal tongs, as we see in a fragmentary mosaic from the…
Commonplace Jacobitism
Historians have expertly documented how Jacobites produced sermons, poems, broadsides, manifestos and other documents intended to communicate the stories and narratives comprising a Scottish Jacobite understanding of the world. Building on that research, this article uses commonplace books to examine the reception of these ideas among Scottish Jacobites. It reveals that they were not passive consumers: their acts of consumption, purchase, borrowi…
The Revival of Interest in Representing Plays of Menander in the Late 2nd and Early 3rd Centuries AD
An important revival in representing plays of Menander in private homes, in the form of both mosaics and frescoes, occurred primarily in the eastern part of the Roman empire in the late 2nd and early 3rd centuries AD, with a limited echo felt in the west. The present article tries to explain why and how this artistic phenomenon took place, and a review of the relevant works of art and their chronology is presented in this interpretation. The disc…
The Mosaic with Family Portraits and Mythological Figures in the Villa Armira near Ivailovgrad, Bulgaria
This article draws inspiration from Jean-Pierre Darmon’s belief that the figural mosaics decorating Roman private homes often have an educational function, serving as a form of paideia and representing cherished social and cultural values of the classical tradition. That notion is applied to a mosaic embellishing the Villa Armira located near Ivailovgrad in southeastern Thrace (modern Bulgaria) and dated to the 2nd century AD. The pavement depict…
Tropospheric Ozone Assessment Report
In support of the first Tropospheric Ozone Assessment Report (TOAR) a relational database of global surface ozone observations has been developed and populated with hourly measurement data and enhanced metadata. A comprehensive suite of ozone data products including standard statistics, health and vegetation impact metrics, and trend information, are made available through a common data portal and a web interface. These data form the basis of the…
East versus West in the Iconography of Roman Mosaics
This article deals with a few different artistic themes represented by mosaicists in both the eastern and western halves of the Roman empire. The themes I discuss are the Triumph of Dionysos and the subject of the hunt, both of which were popular primarily for decorating the main reception room of private homes. Dionysos’s triumph evokes worldly happiness and prosperity, and the hunt, of either realistic or mythological type, reflects a popular a…
Now the mask is taken off'
Jacobitism has been shown to be an integral and enduring element of British culture, especially during the twenty-six years following the Revolution of 1688. Yet few attempts have been made to explore the impact or existence of Jacobitism in the British Atlantic world. This article locates and examines the presence of Jacobitism in the religious controversies and transatlantic print culture of colonial New England from 1702 to 1727 and draws tent…
North American Regional Reanalysis
In 1997, during the late stages of production of NCEP–NCAR Global Reanalysis (GR), exploration of a regional reanalysis project was suggested by the GR project's Advisory Committee, “particularly if the RDAS [Regional Data Assimilation System] is significantly better than the global reanalysis at capturing the regional hydrological cycle, the diurnal cycle and other important features of weather and climate variability.” Following a 6-yr developm…

The date of the mosaics from Zliten
This article reexamines the issue of dating the mosaic ensemble from the villa at Zliten in Roman Tripolitania, and focuses attention on two pavements from that site, namely, the mosaic of the seasons and the pavement with amphitheater scenes. The chronology of these mosaics is uncertain because of a lack of clear archaeological evidence. The present article proposes a date in the Severan period, as a result of stylistic comparisons with numerous…

Two Mosaics from Roman Tunisia
Among the numerous Roman works of art which represent the four Seasons, mosaic pavements form a significant category, with the majority of examples coming from Roman North Africa. This article examines two African mosaics of late Roman date in which traditional season imagery is transformed to reflect seasonal customs of the local African nobility. At the same time, this imagery shows the influence of Roman illustrations of the Months
