In Search of the Phoenicians - (Miriam S. Balmuth Lectures in Ancient History and Archaeolog) by Josephine Quinn (Paperback)

In Search of the Phoenicians is a groundbreaking book that challenges our understanding of one of history's most mysterious civilizations.

Josephine Quinn, an expert in ancient Mediterranean cultures, argues that the notion of the "Phoenicians" as a coherent people with a shared identity, history, and culture is a product of modern nationalist ideologies.

Through extensive research and analysis, Quinn reveals that the Phoenicians may have been the victims of these distorting categories, and offers a new vision of the ancient Mediterranean where overarching identities mattered less and affinities found other meaningful expressions, such as networks of culture.

This book is an intellectual and interdisciplinary tour de force that will change the way you think about the ancient world.
