Recenzii
"Scholarly work on the Peloponnesian city-state of Elis has made significant progress in the last two decades or so, and an English introduction to this important subject has been a real desideratum for long. Graeme Bourke now provides this much-needed introduction, discussing among other things such topics as the political history – including the synoecism – of Elis, its administration of the great sanctuary at Olympia and its relations with foreign powers, Sparta in particular, in a clear and accessible style. Students of ancient Greek history, Classics, Greek archaeology and Greek religion will find much to interest them in this wide-ranging monograph."
- Thomas Heine Nielsen, The Saxo Institute at the University of Copenhagen, Denmark
"Bourke’s study usefully surveys the landmarks of Eleian history. Those readers who lamented the absence of a monograph on Elis in an earlier tradition of epichoric synthesis will find this treatment repairs the gap."
- Ben Brown, University of Sydney, Australia, Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2019
"The book is well produced and clearly written ... Bourke is successful in bringing together relevant international secondary literature and making it accessible to an English-speaking readership, and some of his most challenging conclusions (most notably his hypothesis about the Omphalionids) will certainly spur scholarly debate. For these reasons, the book will be beneficial to any scholars interested in the history of Elea and the Peloponnese."
- Matteo Barbato, University of Edinburgh, UK, Classical Review 2018
"Bourke provides a number of insights ... A must purchase for research libraries."

Descriere
Elis examines the city of Elis from its earliest history, through the Archaic, Classical and Hellenistic periods until its loss of independence under Roman rule. Through examining this prominent city state, its role in contemporary politics and the place of Olympia in its territory, Graeme Bourke allows the reader to explore broader issues, such as the relationship between the Spartans and their various allies, often collectively referred to as ‘the Peloponnesian League’, the connection between political structures and Panhellenic sanctuaries, and the network of relationships between various ancient sanctuaries throughout the Greek-speaking world. The volume, which makes available in English for the first time much of the debate about the city, provides a valuable resource for students and academics studying the city of Elis, the Peloponnese and the relationships within it, and pre-Roman Greece as a whole.
