Six monuments et structures archéologiques sont concernés : la route antique, l’arc monumental, l’aqueduc, l’hippodrome et les deux bains de factions qui lui sont associés. Une description détaillée du site et de son cadre archéologique, géographique et historique sera suivie d’une étude approfondie de chacun des monuments. Cette étude couvrira leurs divers aspects archéologiques, architecturaux, typologiques ainsi que les divers remaniements qu’ils subirent. L’ensemble sera accompagné de plusieurs approches comparatives avec des monuments contemporains similaires. Cette étude sera complétée par une analyse urbaine du site, qui traitera de la disposition des monuments les uns par rapport aux autres ainsi que par une étude chronologique qui présentera les diverses phases de son évolution, son développement et son abandon. / This thesis has for object the survey of the sector of the Roman hippodrome of the archaeological site of el-Bass in Tyre (South Lebanon).

2	Mob Politics: The Political Influence of the Circus Factions in the Eastern Empire from the Reign of Leo I to Heraclius (457-641) Main, Robert W. 23 September 2013 (has links) This paper seeks to continue the research started by scholars such as W. Liebeschuetz and P. Bell in order to challenge the traditional argument put forth by Al. Cameron, namely that the circus factions did not have a political role in society. The objective of this study is to examine the political importance of the circus factions from the reign of Anastasius (491-518) to Heraclius (610-641). Furthermore, it explores the political motivations behind the factions’ violent behaviour, the evidence for their involvement in the military, and their role in accession ceremonies. The methodology includes establishing a typology for sixth century riots, an examination of the hippodrome and its role as a medium between people and emperor, tracing the shift in the focus of imperial ideology, and a re-evaluation of the primary sources, with a focus on the literary and epigraphic evidence, to determine if there was a political aspect to the factions. The study concludes that Cameron did undervalue the factions’ political importance and outlines the conditions that were influential in their rise in importance.

4	La Furūsiyya des Mamlûks : Une élite sociale à cheval (1250-1517) Carayon, Agnès 26 June 2012 (has links) Les Mamlûks sont réputés pour avoir porté les arts de la furūsiyya à leur plus haute expression. Cette thèse a pour objectif de cerner à la fois les enjeux de leur dextérité, et ses caractéristiques. La première partie porte sur la littérature de la furūsiyya. Après un bilan historiographique, plusieurs ouvrages de furūsiyya sont analysés et comparés, afin de mieux appréhender les héritages et les apports proprement mamlûks. Un traité anonyme de maniement de dabbūs et de lutte à cheval, contenant également une partie sur les feux de guerre, est édité et traduit. La deuxième partie de cette thèse porte sur la suprématie militaire des Mamlûks. Leur formation très poussée y est décrite, mais la lumière a aussi été mise sur leurs chevaux : leurs races ; leur dressage ; leur nombre ; leur entretien. Un large échantillon d'armes mamlûkes est présenté. Enfin, un chapitre est consacré au problème des procédés de combat, encore très mal connus, qui tend à nuancer la vision d'archers montés que l'on a généralement des Mamlûks. Enfin, la dernière partie relève de l'histoire sociale. Elle a pour ambition de démontrer que la maîtrise de la furūsiyya était perçue par les Mamlûks comme la détention d'un art complexe, un « attribut de distinction » qui les distinguait du vulgum pecus. Ce sont alors les diverses manifestations de cette appartenance sociale qui sont analysées : les « sports » équestres, les lieux de jeu et d'entraînement militaire et les palais-écuries, enfin les institutions et les spectacles.Les annexes contiennent un tableau détaillé des manuscrits de furūsiyya et un glossaire, en plus de quelques planches. / The Mamluks are renowned for bringing the arts of furūsiyya to their highest expression. This thesis aims to identify both the issues of their dexterity, and characteristics.The first part focuses on the literature of furūsiyya. After a historiographical balance, several treatises of furūsiyya are analyzed and compared in order to better understand the legacy and contributions properly Mamluk. An anonymous treatise of handling dabbūs and fight on horseback, also containing some of the fires of war, is edited and translated.The second part of this thesis is on their military supremacy.Their extensive training is described, but the light was also put on their horses : races, training, numbers and maintenance. A wide selection of Mamluk weapons is presented. Finally, a chapter is devoted to the problem of combat methods, very little known, which tends to moderate vision of mounted archers that is generally widespread.The last part focus on social history. It aims to demonstrate that furūsiyya mastery was seen by the Mamluks as the knowledge of a complex art, an "attribute of distinction", which distinguished them from the hoi polloi. Then, the various manifestations of belonging to this social class are analyzed: "sports" riding, gambling venues and military training, and palace-stables, and finally the institutions and the shows.The appendices contain a detailed table of manuscripts of furūsiyya, a glossary and a few plates.

Este estiado oferece subsídios para o entendimento do problema que envolve a preservação das instalações do Hipódromo do Cristal, obra prima da arquitetura moderna em solo porto alegrense, de autoria do arquiteto uruguaio Román. Fresnedo Siri, e da área que abriga o conjunto, parte vital do sistema de espaços abertos verdes da orla do lago Guaíba. A deteriáração do Jockey Club do Rio Grande do Sul tanto em suas estruturas físicas quanto financeiras favorece a simples dissolução do patrimônio construído e do bolsão de espaço verde no interior da cidade. São apresentados de forma concisa alguns conceitos básicos para o entendimento do.equipamento hipódromo como feito urbano e cultural da humanidade. A seguir são indicadas as razões para a decadência do conjunto de Porto Alegre, analisadas as legislações incidentes e as propostas elaboradas para a área, as perspectivas de transformação do espaço e casos semelhantes em outras entidades da mesma natureza no Brasil e no mundo, tendo por objetivo embasar futuras iniciativas promovam uma revitalização da região. / This work has as the theme the case study of Jockey Club in Rio.

It provides insights to understand the problem that involves preservation Hipódromo do Cristal facilities, a masterpiece of modern architecture in Porto Alegre city, authored by the Uruguayan architect Roman Fresnedo Siri, and the area that shelters the hippic set, a vital part of green open spaces system that borders Guaiba lake. Deterioration of Jockey Club do Rio Grande do Sul, both in its physical and financial struçtures, promotes the simple dissolution of built heritage and green hollow space inside the city.

8	Jízdárna / Hippodrome Václavíková, Veronika January 2013 (has links) The theme of this Master´s thesis is to design and assess the load Bering steel structure of the hippodrome in Napajedla. The hippodrome is solved as a hall object in two alternatives. Both alternatives are elliptical in shape with dimensions of 40 and 80 m. Load bearing structure of the chosen alternative is formed by transversely oriented column binding with the axial spacing of 6,0 m. Transversely oriented binding is formed from spatial lattice truss supported by fixed solid columns. The spatial rigidity of the structure is ensured by fixing columns in the transverse direction and by using transverse braces in the longitudinal direction. The longitudinal braces help to ensure the spatial rigidity. The work consists of the design and assessment of the main load bearing components, the solution of chosen details of joints and columns´ anchoring, solution of construction component and the elaboration of statement of material and drawings´ documentation.
