What books would /his/ recommend for the following: >Carthaginian

>>3045789

"Carthage Must Be Destroyed" is the book I'm planning on reading once I finish SPQR. It's supposed to be a history of Carthage.

>>3045812
Thanks mate, I'll take a look. SPQR is already on my to do list, are you enjoying it?

>>3045789
I Fenici tra Vicino oriente e Sardegna by Berbardini and Italia Punica by Moscati

>>3045789
>The origins of the Hebrew people and history before/during/after Egyptian enslavement
For this I'd recommend fiction

Somehow posted this a it's own thread. Oops.

For Carthage

>General Summary
- Carthage: A History (more dry, but super important)
- Carthage Must be Destroyed (more entry, not a bad thing)

>Summary of The Western Phoenicians in general
- Phoenicians and the West

>Punic Wars
- it's hard to recommend anything but Goldworthy for a good introduction

>Hannibal
- Serge Lancel's Hannibal
- There's a good podcast on iTunes U by Stanford University

>General Phoenicians
- The Phoenicians by Donald Harden
- The Phoenicians by Glenn Markoe


There are also some good papers by Carlos Wagner on Carthage and The Phoenicians in Spain. Some of his work is in Spanish, a good amount in English.

>>3045903
Are there English versions of these?

>>3047095
Moscati, Sabatino, ed. 1988. The Phoenicians. New York: Abbeville. Although its title suggests a focus on the Phoenicians, many of the articles in this volume concentrate on their activities and heritage in the central and western Mediterranean. Particularly good on Punic art and architecture.

yeah still working on it. I've compiled a shit ton of books which i can put in pastebin if you want, but the process of organizing it and making a chart is a very big undertaking considering that its a subject that has a lot of good scholarship (whereas a more obscure subject has a more limited range of scholarship thats easy to narrow down)

1)Tophets are not temples, they are cemeteries for still borns and small children
2)many of those bones belonged to stillborns, so the cemetery wasn't certainly a specific burial place for sacrificed victims
3)There is no firm evidence for any of those children being sacrificed
4)There isn't any direct reference to human sacrifice in any Punic epigraphic text found

If this is the book rec thread, does anyone have some good recs on early American history, later American history, English history, history of the British Isles in general, general European history, general history of other relevant places in the world, American law and government, British law and government, and history of Christian sects?
The more specific ones are what I'm really interested in, though I'd like to know more of more general history, too, since America and England don't exist in a bubble.
Please and thank you.

The jewish war by Josephus is a book I recommend to read. Though it might not go as far back as you want. It talks by King Herod the great's rise to power and then the causes of the Jewish revolt then about the revolt itself. Btw it's the first revolt(66-70 CE). It was written by an actual commander of the Jewish forces in Galilee, who was captured after a siege then worked for the Romans.

>>3054112
We don't know why, there are none in Phoenicia either

>>3054112
There's an argument it isn't a native Phoenician tradition. I don't know how legitimate it is though.

Seconding Carthage Must Be Destroyed. It's a pretty good look at both recorded history and archaeology and tries to use both to make a clearer picture. It also goes pretty into religious cross-pollination and the use of gods as political weapons, which is neat.

This might be a bit of a stretch for this thread, but can anyone recommend a good book, preferably science fiction or an alternate history, that involves a mutualist society? It seems like an interesting ideology and I'd like to read about an "applied" mutualist society.

I want to read a book that goes over society and culture in America during the Cold War, any good examples?

Is there book that explains christian concepts? I would really prefer it in non-propaganda way.

>>3061870
I too would be interested in this. Also aside from the "propaganda" as you put it, the bible has been through so many Chinese-whisper translations and iterations I don't have a clue which version is best to read.

>>3060943
Awesome, I didn't even know there was one.

Anybody know the best way to get books into PDF form? Like programs, etc.

I have a collection of rather old archeology books that definitely have no PDF equivalent. I want to to scanning. Also just so I can store my library on some cloud service for family and anonymous shitposting.

>>3063809
public libraries usually have scanners but it would take time to scan all those pages

>>3064669
I don't mind that, I'm in no rush. I figure a book every few weeks is fine. I just want to get my collection up for insurance and so I can have it accessible to others. It's not an amazing collection, but I've been getting rare stuff at used book stores for years.

I was also looking into using a camera. Does a scanner work well with books?

I use my pastebin collection annotated bibliographies and I search keywords for charts i want to make. i then assemble all the relevant books and sort them into categories and leave out any that are too specialist or only tangentially related. it takes a while to make them but i like doing it because the pastebins are messy and not always divided into subjects or categories that are immediately appealing to people here. It also gives the board easily accessible lists to post in threads when people need recommendations. overall i want /his/ to thrive as a board and this is my way of trying to help

Inside the Third Reich by Albert Speer is my favorite read about WW2 ever, because he has countless personal stories of Hitler, Germany, just inside Germany in general as the war goes on. Reading that book is as close to living those years as a person can possibly get, I could even write a book on Hitler's entire personality after reading it because of Speer
