Jacob Spon (1647-1685) was son of a Lyonese doctor and scholar of Greek. Spon himself was a doctor with a keen interest in archaeology, as well as a fervent protestant. With his two journeys to the East (1674 and 1676), Spon was the first traveller to tour and explore territories in a scientific manner.
In 1662, Spon travelled to Strasburg to study Greek and Latin, languages necessary for the study of medicine at the time. In Strasburg, Spon met Charles Patin, a man passionate about numismatics, who transmitted his interest in epigraphy and coins to the young Spon. Spon continued his studies in Paris and Montpellier, where he became doctor in medicine in 1667. In 1671, Spon started practicing medicine in Lyon. At the age of twenty-eight, he published a book on the uses of coffee, tea and chocolate, and in 1673 a study on the monuments of Lyon. Spon also kept a lively correspondence with several erudite clergymen.
By 1674, Spon had published a commentary on the “Description of Athens” by Jesuit Père Babin, and later became involved in a scholarly debate with A. G. Guillet, on the same subject. In 1674, he was going to escort the French king's antiquarian in his journey to Greece, but was delayed. Eventually, he sailed from Marseilles to Rome and stayed in that city for five months, studying antiquities and inscriptions. It was there that he met British naturalist George Wheler. The two travelled to Florence, Bologna and Ferrara; in June of 1675 they sailed from Venice to Istanbul, with two more British noblemen.
After sailing along the Dalmatian coast and the Ionian islands, they set anchor at Zakynthos and later Cythera, visited Delos and eventually reached Istanbul. They also visited Bursa and Thyateira in Asia Minor, and stayed in Izmir for some time. In their second journey, they crossed over to Patras from Zakynthos, visited Delphi, travelled to Athens and toured the region of Attica. Spon and Wheler together collected approximately fifty manuscripts and more than six hundred coins.
The three-volume account of Spon's voyage was first published in Lyon in 1678. It constituted a major literary event, and became a landmark in travel literature. It is the product of first-hand investigation, free of plagiarism and also touches on contemporary issues in the Greek territories which he visited. The second volume includes an important glossary of modern Greek words, for travellers' use, while the third volume is dedicated exclusively to the inscriptions and coins collected by Spon during his journey. Spon's travel account was republished in French and was translated into English. Four years later, George Wheler published his own account of their journey, which is in fact but a mediocre copy of Spon's work. In 1680, Spon published his “History of Geneva” and in 1685 an catalogue of ancient Greek inscriptions.
Spon was an erudite traveller, and an insightful reader of classical texts; at the same time, he was the first to combine his theoretical knowledge with field observation, and is thus considered to have inaugurated the archaeology of Athens. Jacob Spon died in utter poverty in Geneva, at the age of thirty-eight years old (1685).

Doktor ve yunan kültürü uzmanı bir babadan Lyon şehrinde dünyaya gelen Fransız asıllı Jacob Spon'ın (1647-1685) kendisi de doktor ve koyu protestandı. Ayrıca arkeoloji için büyük ilgisi vardı. 1674 ve 1676 yıllarında yaptığı Doğu gezisiyle, Spon, bilimsel gezi türünü ilk başlatan olur; nitekim bu gezi türü günümüze kadar uygulanmaktadır. 1662 yılında, Spon, tıp bilimi için kesinlikle gerekli olan eski yunanca ve latince dilleri üzerine eğitim almak üzere Strasbourg'a gider. Oradayken, numizmatik bilimiyle tutku derecesinde uğraşan Charles Patin ile tanışır. Çok genç yaşta olan Spon Patin'den etkilenip sikke ve yazıtlar için ilgi duymaya başlar. Öğrenimini Paris ve Montpelier'de sürdürür ve 1667 yılında tıp doktorası alır. 1671'den itibaren Lyon şehrinde doktorluk yapar, 28 yaşındayken kahve çay ve çikolatanın kullanımı üzerinde bir kitap yayımlar; 1673'te ise doğum yeri olan şehrin tarihsel anıtlarına ilişkin bir inceleme yayımlar. Spon'ın kilise ortamına mensup entelektüel kişilerle yazışmasından oluşan mektuplar da ilginçtir.
Spon 1674 yılında cizvit rahip Père Babin'in "Atina tasviri" başlıklı eseri için bir eleştiri yazar. Bu konu etrafında, daha sonra, Spon ve A.G. Guillet arasında tartışmalar açılır. Gine aynı yılda (1674) Spon, Fransa kralı adına arkeolojik eser koleksiyonu yapan Jean Vaillant'a Yunanistan gezisinde refakat etmeyi planlar, ancak geç kalması nedeniyle sonuçta Marsilya'dan Roma'ya hareket ederek Roma'da beş ay kalır ve burada arkeolojik eser ve yazıt incelemeleri yapar. Bu sırada tanıdığı İngiliz doğa bilimcisi George Wheler ile Floransa, Bologna, Ferrara şehirlerini gezer ve 1675 yılının Haziran ayında ikisi Venedik'e varır. Venedik'te, kendilerinden başka iki İngiliz soylu kişiyle birlikte İstanbul'a gidecek olan bir vapura binerler.
Dalmaçya kıyıları ve İyon denizi adalarından geçtikten sonra Zakinthos, Kithira adalarında demir atarlar. Dilos'a da uğradıktan sonra nihayet İstanbul'a varırlar. Yolculuklarının devamında Bursa ve Akhisar (Thyateira)'dan geçerek İzmir'e varıp bir süre burada kalırlar. Yaptıkları ikinci yolculukta ise Zakinthos'dan Patras'a geçip Delfi'ye gelirler, oradan Atina'ya geçip Atina ve tüm Attika'yı gezerler.Spon Wheler ile birlikte 50'ye ulaşan el yazması kitap ve 600'den fazla sikke biriktirir.
İlk baskısı 1678 yılında Lyon'da gerçekleşen üç ciltlik eseri büyük bir edebiyat olayı ve seyahatname türünün gelişiminde bir kilometre taşı olarak karşılanır. Yerinde inceleme sonucu olup hiçbir söz hırsızlığı içermeyen bu eser çağdaş yunan gerçekliğine de atıfta bulunur. Eserin ikinci cildinde gezginlere yararlı olmak amacıyla çağdaş yunanca dilinin bir sözcük dizini yer almaktadır. Üçüncü cildin tamamıysa Spon'ın seyahati boyunca biriktirmiş olduğu sikke ve yazıtları içerir. Bu eser birçok yeni baskı yapar ve ingilizceye çevrilir; Spon'dan 4 yıl sonra Wheler de aynı gezinin vakayınamesini yayınlarsa da yazdığı kitap Spon'ın eserinin vasat bir kopyasından başka bir şey değildir. Spon ayrıca 1680 yılında "Genevre Tarihi" kitabını ve 1685'te eski yazıtlardan oluşan bir katalog yayınlar.
Spon, 1685 yılında, 38 yaşındayken ve tamamen yoksul olarak Genevre kentinde ölür.

Jacob Spon (1647-1685) was son of a Lyonese doctor and scholar of Greek. Spon himself was a doctor with a keen interest in archaeology, as well as a fervent protestant. With his two journeys to the East (1674 and 1676), Spon was the first traveller to tour and explore territories in a scientific manner.
In 1662, Spon travelled to Strasburg to study Greek and Latin, languages necessary for the study of medicine at the time. In Strasburg, Spon met Charles Patin, a man passionate about numismatics, who transmitted his interest in epigraphy and coins to the young Spon. Spon continued his studies in Paris and Montpellier, where he became doctor in medicine in 1667. In 1671, Spon started practicing medicine in Lyon. At the age of twenty-eight, he published a book on the uses of coffee, tea and chocolate, and in 1673 a study on the monuments of Lyon. Spon also kept a lively correspondence with several erudite clergymen.
By 1674, Spon had published a commentary on the “Description of Athens” by Jesuit Père Babin, and later became involved in a scholarly debate with A. G. Guillet, on the same subject. In 1674, he was going to escort the French king's antiquarian in his journey to Greece, but was delayed. Eventually, he sailed from Marseilles to Rome and stayed in that city for five months, studying antiquities and inscriptions. It was there that he met British naturalist George Wheler. The two travelled to Florence, Bologna and Ferrara; in June of 1675 they sailed from Venice to Istanbul, with two more British noblemen.
After sailing along the Dalmatian coast and the Ionian islands, they set anchor at Zakynthos and later Cythera, visited Delos and eventually reached Istanbul. They also visited Bursa and Thyateira in Asia Minor, and stayed in Izmir for some time. In their second journey, they crossed over to Patras from Zakynthos, visited Delphi, travelled to Athens and toured the region of Attica. Spon and Wheler together collected approximately fifty manuscripts and more than six hundred coins.
The three-volume account of Spon's voyage was first published in Lyon in 1678. It constituted a major literary event, and became a landmark in travel literature. It is the product of first-hand investigation, free of plagiarism and also touches on contemporary issues in the Greek territories which he visited. The second volume includes an important glossary of modern Greek words, for travellers' use, while the third volume is dedicated exclusively to the inscriptions and coins collected by Spon during his journey. Spon's travel account was republished in French and was translated into English. Four years later, George Wheler published his own account of their journey, which is in fact but a mediocre copy of Spon's work. In 1680, Spon published his “History of Geneva” and in 1685 an catalogue of ancient Greek inscriptions.
Spon was an erudite traveller, and an insightful reader of classical texts; at the same time, he was the first to combine his theoretical knowledge with field observation, and is thus considered to have inaugurated the archaeology of Athens. Jacob Spon died in utter poverty in Geneva, at the age of thirty-eight years old (1685).

Doktor ve yunan kültürü uzmanı bir babadan Lyon şehrinde dünyaya gelen Fransız asıllı Jacob Spon'ın (1647-1685) kendisi de doktor ve koyu protestandı. Ayrıca arkeoloji için büyük ilgisi vardı. 1674 ve 1676 yıllarında yaptığı Doğu gezisiyle, Spon, bilimsel gezi türünü ilk başlatan olur; nitekim bu gezi türü günümüze kadar uygulanmaktadır. 1662 yılında, Spon, tıp bilimi için kesinlikle gerekli olan eski yunanca ve latince dilleri üzerine eğitim almak üzere Strasbourg'a gider. Oradayken, numizmatik bilimiyle tutku derecesinde uğraşan Charles Patin ile tanışır. Çok genç yaşta olan Spon Patin'den etkilenip sikke ve yazıtlar için ilgi duymaya başlar. Öğrenimini Paris ve Montpelier'de sürdürür ve 1667 yılında tıp doktorası alır. 1671'den itibaren Lyon şehrinde doktorluk yapar, 28 yaşındayken kahve çay ve çikolatanın kullanımı üzerinde bir kitap yayımlar; 1673'te ise doğum yeri olan şehrin tarihsel anıtlarına ilişkin bir inceleme yayımlar. Spon'ın kilise ortamına mensup entelektüel kişilerle yazışmasından oluşan mektuplar da ilginçtir.
Spon 1674 yılında cizvit rahip Père Babin'in "Atina tasviri" başlıklı eseri için bir eleştiri yazar. Bu konu etrafında, daha sonra, Spon ve A.G. Guillet arasında tartışmalar açılır. Gine aynı yılda (1674) Spon, Fransa kralı adına arkeolojik eser koleksiyonu yapan Jean Vaillant'a Yunanistan gezisinde refakat etmeyi planlar, ancak geç kalması nedeniyle sonuçta Marsilya'dan Roma'ya hareket ederek Roma'da beş ay kalır ve burada arkeolojik eser ve yazıt incelemeleri yapar. Bu sırada tanıdığı İngiliz doğa bilimcisi George Wheler ile Floransa, Bologna, Ferrara şehirlerini gezer ve 1675 yılının Haziran ayında ikisi Venedik'e varır. Venedik'te, kendilerinden başka iki İngiliz soylu kişiyle birlikte İstanbul'a gidecek olan bir vapura binerler.
Dalmaçya kıyıları ve İyon denizi adalarından geçtikten sonra Zakinthos, Kithira adalarında demir atarlar. Dilos'a da uğradıktan sonra nihayet İstanbul'a varırlar. Yolculuklarının devamında Bursa ve Akhisar (Thyateira)'dan geçerek İzmir'e varıp bir süre burada kalırlar. Yaptıkları ikinci yolculukta ise Zakinthos'dan Patras'a geçip Delfi'ye gelirler, oradan Atina'ya geçip Atina ve tüm Attika'yı gezerler.Spon Wheler ile birlikte 50'ye ulaşan el yazması kitap ve 600'den fazla sikke biriktirir.
İlk baskısı 1678 yılında Lyon'da gerçekleşen üç ciltlik eseri büyük bir edebiyat olayı ve seyahatname türünün gelişiminde bir kilometre taşı olarak karşılanır. Yerinde inceleme sonucu olup hiçbir söz hırsızlığı içermeyen bu eser çağdaş yunan gerçekliğine de atıfta bulunur. Eserin ikinci cildinde gezginlere yararlı olmak amacıyla çağdaş yunanca dilinin bir sözcük dizini yer almaktadır. Üçüncü cildin tamamıysa Spon'ın seyahati boyunca biriktirmiş olduğu sikke ve yazıtları içerir. Bu eser birçok yeni baskı yapar ve ingilizceye çevrilir; Spon'dan 4 yıl sonra Wheler de aynı gezinin vakayınamesini yayınlarsa da yazdığı kitap Spon'ın eserinin vasat bir kopyasından başka bir şey değildir. Spon ayrıca 1680 yılında "Genevre Tarihi" kitabını ve 1685'te eski yazıtlardan oluşan bir katalog yayınlar.
Spon, 1685 yılında, 38 yaşındayken ve tamamen yoksul olarak Genevre kentinde ölür.

The two travelled to Florence, Bologna and Ferrara; in June of 1675 they sailed from Venice to Istanbul, with two more British noblemen.
After sailing along the Dalmatian coast and the Ionian islands, they set anchor at Zakynthos and later Cythera, visited Delos and eventually reached Istanbul. They also visited Bursa and Thyateira in Asia Minor, and stayed in Izmir for some time. In their second journey, they crossed over to Patras from Zakynthos, visited Delphi, travelled to Athens and toured the region of Attica. Spon and Wheler together collected approximately fifty manuscripts and more than six hundred coins.
The three-volume account of Spon's voyage was first published in Lyon in 1678. It constituted a major literary event, and became a landmark in travel literature. It is the product of first-hand investigation, free of plagiarism and also touches on contemporary issues in the Greek territories which he visited. The second volume includes an important glossary of modern Greek words, for travellers' use, while the third volume is dedicated exclusively to the inscriptions and coins collected by Spon during his journey. Spon's travel account was republished in French and was translated into English. Four years later, George Wheler published his own account of their journey, which is in fact but a mediocre copy of Spon's work. In 1680, Spon published his “History of Geneva” and in 1685 an catalogue of ancient Greek inscriptions.
Spon was an erudite traveller, and an insightful reader of classical texts; at the same time, he was the first to combine his theoretical knowledge with field observation, and is thus considered to have inaugurated the archaeology of Athens. Jacob Spon died in utter poverty in Geneva, at the age of thirty-eight years old (1685).

Doktor ve yunan kültürü uzmanı bir babadan Lyon şehrinde dünyaya gelen Fransız asıllı Jacob Spon'ın (1647-1685) kendisi de doktor ve koyu protestandı. Ayrıca arkeoloji için büyük ilgisi vardı. 1674 ve 1676 yıllarında yaptığı Doğu gezisiyle, Spon, bilimsel gezi türünü ilk başlatan olur; nitekim bu gezi türü günümüze kadar uygulanmaktadır. 1662 yılında, Spon, tıp bilimi için kesinlikle gerekli olan eski yunanca ve latince dilleri üzerine eğitim almak üzere Strasbourg'a gider. Oradayken, numizmatik bilimiyle tutku derecesinde uğraşan Charles Patin ile tanışır. Çok genç yaşta olan Spon Patin'den etkilenip sikke ve yazıtlar için ilgi duymaya başlar. Öğrenimini Paris ve Montpelier'de sürdürür ve 1667 yılında tıp doktorası alır. 1671'den itibaren Lyon şehrinde doktorluk yapar, 28 yaşındayken kahve çay ve çikolatanın kullanımı üzerinde bir kitap yayımlar; 1673'te ise doğum yeri olan şehrin tarihsel anıtlarına ilişkin bir inceleme yayımlar. Spon'ın kilise ortamına mensup entelektüel kişilerle yazışmasından oluşan mektuplar da ilginçtir.
Spon 1674 yılında cizvit rahip Père Babin'in "Atina tasviri" başlıklı eseri için bir eleştiri yazar. Bu konu etrafında, daha sonra, Spon ve A.G. Guillet arasında tartışmalar açılır. Gine aynı yılda (1674) Spon, Fransa kralı adına arkeolojik eser koleksiyonu yapan Jean Vaillant'a Yunanistan gezisinde refakat etmeyi planlar, ancak geç kalması nedeniyle sonuçta Marsilya'dan Roma'ya hareket ederek Roma'da beş ay kalır ve burada arkeolojik eser ve yazıt incelemeleri yapar. Bu sırada tanıdığı İngiliz doğa bilimcisi George Wheler ile Floransa, Bologna, Ferrara şehirlerini gezer ve 1675 yılının Haziran ayında ikisi Venedik'e varır. Venedik'te, kendilerinden başka iki İngiliz soylu kişiyle birlikte İstanbul'a gidecek olan bir vapura binerler.
Dalmaçya kıyıları ve İyon denizi adalarından geçtikten sonra Zakinthos, Kithira adalarında demir atarlar. Dilos'a da uğradıktan sonra nihayet İstanbul'a varırlar. Yolculuklarının devamında Bursa ve Akhisar (Thyateira)'dan geçerek İzmir'e varıp bir süre burada kalırlar. Yaptıkları ikinci yolculukta ise Zakinthos'dan Patras'a geçip Delfi'ye gelirler, oradan Atina'ya geçip Atina ve tüm Attika'yı gezerler.Spon Wheler ile birlikte 50'ye ulaşan el yazması kitap ve 600'den fazla sikke biriktirir.
İlk baskısı 1678 yılında Lyon'da gerçekleşen üç ciltlik eseri büyük bir edebiyat olayı ve seyahatname türünün gelişiminde bir kilometre taşı olarak karşılanır. Yerinde inceleme sonucu olup hiçbir söz hırsızlığı içermeyen bu eser çağdaş yunan gerçekliğine de atıfta bulunur. Eserin ikinci cildinde gezginlere yararlı olmak amacıyla çağdaş yunanca dilinin bir sözcük dizini yer almaktadır. Üçüncü cildin tamamıysa Spon'ın seyahati boyunca biriktirmiş olduğu sikke ve yazıtları içerir. Bu eser birçok yeni baskı yapar ve ingilizceye çevrilir; Spon'dan 4 yıl sonra Wheler de aynı gezinin vakayınamesini yayınlarsa da yazdığı kitap Spon'ın eserinin vasat bir kopyasından başka bir şey değildir. Spon ayrıca 1680 yılında "Genevre Tarihi" kitabını ve 1685'te eski yazıtlardan oluşan bir katalog yayınlar.
Spon, 1685 yılında, 38 yaşındayken ve tamamen yoksul olarak Genevre kentinde ölür.

Jacob Spon (1647-1685) was son of a Lyonese doctor and scholar of Greek. Spon himself was a doctor with a keen interest in archaeology, as well as a fervent protestant. With his two journeys to the East (1674 and 1676), Spon was the first traveller to tour and explore territories in a scientific manner.
In 1662, Spon travelled to Strasburg to study Greek and Latin, languages necessary for the study of medicine at the time. In Strasburg, Spon met Charles Patin, a man passionate about numismatics, who transmitted his interest in epigraphy and coins to the young Spon. Spon continued his studies in Paris and Montpellier, where he became doctor in medicine in 1667. In 1671, Spon started practicing medicine in Lyon. At the age of twenty-eight, he published a book on the uses of coffee, tea and chocolate, and in 1673 a study on the monuments of Lyon. Spon also kept a lively correspondence with several erudite clergymen.
By 1674, Spon had published a commentary on the “Description of Athens” by Jesuit Père Babin, and later became involved in a scholarly debate with A. G. Guillet, on the same subject. In 1674, he was going to escort the French king's antiquarian in his journey to Greece, but was delayed.

Peace (17), is a school student from the Volta Region of Ghana. Like all Ghanaian students, ICT is one of her core subjects, but her school has neither electricity nor computers, so she and her fellow students must rely entirely on theoretical knowledge to pass their examinations. A hand-drawn poster of a keyboard, the old motherboard, hard drive and CD drive are the school's only ICT resources.

Jacob Spon (1647-1685) was son of a Lyonese doctor and scholar of Greek. Spon himself was a doctor with a keen interest in archaeology, as well as a fervent protestant. With his two journeys to the East (1674 and 1676), Spon was the first traveller to tour and explore territories in a scientific manner.
In 1662, Spon travelled to Strasburg to study Greek and Latin, languages necessary for the study of medicine at the time. In Strasburg, Spon met Charles Patin, a man passionate about numismatics, who transmitted his interest in epigraphy and coins to the young Spon. Spon continued his studies in Paris and Montpellier, where he became doctor in medicine in 1667. In 1671, Spon started practicing medicine in Lyon. At the age of twenty-eight, he published a book on the uses of coffee, tea and chocolate, and in 1673 a study on the monuments of Lyon. Spon also kept a lively correspondence with several erudite clergymen.
By 1674, Spon had published a commentary on the “Description of Athens” by Jesuit Père Babin, and later became involved in a scholarly debate with A. G. Guillet, on the same subject. In 1674, he was going to escort the French king's antiquarian in his journey to Greece, but was delayed. Eventually, he sailed from Marseilles to Rome and stayed in that city for five months, studying antiquities and inscriptions. It was there that he met British naturalist George Wheler. The two travelled to Florence, Bologna and Ferrara; in June of 1675 they sailed from Venice to Istanbul, with two more British noblemen.
After sailing along the Dalmatian coast and the Ionian islands, they set anchor at Zakynthos and later Cythera, visited Delos and eventually reached Istanbul. They also visited Bursa and Thyateira in Asia Minor, and stayed in Izmir for some time. In their second journey, they crossed over to Patras from Zakynthos, visited Delphi, travelled to Athens and toured the region of Attica. Spon and Wheler together collected approximately fifty manuscripts and more than six hundred coins.
The three-volume account of Spon's voyage was first published in Lyon in 1678. It constituted a major literary event, and became a landmark in travel literature. It is the product of first-hand investigation, free of plagiarism and also touches on contemporary issues in the Greek territories which he visited. The second volume includes an important glossary of modern Greek words, for travellers' use, while the third volume is dedicated exclusively to the inscriptions and coins collected by Spon during his journey. Spon's travel account was republished in French and was translated into English. Four years later, George Wheler published his own account of their journey, which is in fact but a mediocre copy of Spon's work. In 1680, Spon published his “History of Geneva” and in 1685 an catalogue of ancient Greek inscriptions.
Spon was an erudite traveller, and an insightful reader of classical texts; at the same time, he was the first to combine his theoretical knowledge with field observation, and is thus considered to have inaugurated the archaeology of Athens. Jacob Spon died in utter poverty in Geneva, at the age of thirty-eight years old (1685).

Doktor ve yunan kültürü uzmanı bir babadan Lyon şehrinde dünyaya gelen Fransız asıllı Jacob Spon'ın (1647-1685) kendisi de doktor ve koyu protestandı. Ayrıca arkeoloji için büyük ilgisi vardı. 1674 ve 1676 yıllarında yaptığı Doğu gezisiyle, Spon, bilimsel gezi türünü ilk başlatan olur; nitekim bu gezi türü günümüze kadar uygulanmaktadır. 1662 yılında, Spon, tıp bilimi için kesinlikle gerekli olan eski yunanca ve latince dilleri üzerine eğitim almak üzere Strasbourg'a gider. Oradayken, numizmatik bilimiyle tutku derecesinde uğraşan Charles Patin ile tanışır. Çok genç yaşta olan Spon Patin'den etkilenip sikke ve yazıtlar için ilgi duymaya başlar. Öğrenimini Paris ve Montpelier'de sürdürür ve 1667 yılında tıp doktorası alır. 1671'den itibaren Lyon şehrinde doktorluk yapar, 28 yaşındayken kahve çay ve çikolatanın kullanımı üzerinde bir kitap yayımlar; 1673'te ise doğum yeri olan şehrin tarihsel anıtlarına ilişkin bir inceleme yayımlar. Spon'ın kilise ortamına mensup entelektüel kişilerle yazışmasından oluşan mektuplar da ilginçtir.

The two travelled to Florence, Bologna and Ferrara; in June of 1675 they sailed from Venice to Istanbul, with two more British noblemen.
After sailing along the Dalmatian coast and the Ionian islands, they set anchor at Zakynthos and later Cythera, visited Delos and eventually reached Istanbul. They also visited Bursa and Thyateira in Asia Minor, and stayed in Izmir for some time. In their second journey, they crossed over to Patras from Zakynthos, visited Delphi, travelled to Athens and toured the region of Attica. Spon and Wheler together collected approximately fifty manuscripts and more than six hundred coins.
The three-volume account of Spon's voyage was first published in Lyon in 1678. It constituted a major literary event, and became a landmark in travel literature. It is the product of first-hand investigation, free of plagiarism and also touches on contemporary issues in the Greek territories which he visited. The second volume includes an important glossary of modern Greek words, for travellers' use, while the third volume is dedicated exclusively to the inscriptions and coins collected by Spon during his journey. Spon's travel account was republished in French and was translated into English. Four years later, George Wheler published his own account of their journey, which is in fact but a mediocre copy of Spon's work. In 1680, Spon published his “History of Geneva” and in 1685 an catalogue of ancient Greek inscriptions.
Spon was an erudite traveller, and an insightful reader of classical texts; at the same time, he was the first to combine his theoretical knowledge with field observation, and is thus considered to have inaugurated the archaeology of Athens. Jacob Spon died in utter poverty in Geneva, at the age of thirty-eight years old (1685).

Doktor ve yunan kültürü uzmanı bir babadan Lyon şehrinde dünyaya gelen Fransız asıllı Jacob Spon'ın (1647-1685) kendisi de doktor ve koyu protestandı. Ayrıca arkeoloji için büyük ilgisi vardı. 1674 ve 1676 yıllarında yaptığı Doğu gezisiyle, Spon, bilimsel gezi türünü ilk başlatan olur; nitekim bu gezi türü günümüze kadar uygulanmaktadır. 1662 yılında, Spon, tıp bilimi için kesinlikle gerekli olan eski yunanca ve latince dilleri üzerine eğitim almak üzere Strasbourg'a gider. Oradayken, numizmatik bilimiyle tutku derecesinde uğraşan Charles Patin ile tanışır. Çok genç yaşta olan Spon Patin'den etkilenip sikke ve yazıtlar için ilgi duymaya başlar. Öğrenimini Paris ve Montpelier'de sürdürür ve 1667 yılında tıp doktorası alır. 1671'den itibaren Lyon şehrinde doktorluk yapar, 28 yaşındayken kahve çay ve çikolatanın kullanımı üzerinde bir kitap yayımlar; 1673'te ise doğum yeri olan şehrin tarihsel anıtlarına ilişkin bir inceleme yayımlar. Spon'ın kilise ortamına mensup entelektüel kişilerle yazışmasından oluşan mektuplar da ilginçtir.
Spon 1674 yılında cizvit rahip Père Babin'in "Atina tasviri" başlıklı eseri için bir eleştiri yazar. Bu konu etrafında, daha sonra, Spon ve A.G. Guillet arasında tartışmalar açılır. Gine aynı yılda (1674) Spon, Fransa kralı adına arkeolojik eser koleksiyonu yapan Jean Vaillant'a Yunanistan gezisinde refakat etmeyi planlar, ancak geç kalması nedeniyle sonuçta Marsilya'dan Roma'ya hareket ederek Roma'da beş ay kalır ve burada arkeolojik eser ve yazıt incelemeleri yapar. Bu sırada tanıdığı İngiliz doğa bilimcisi George Wheler ile Floransa, Bologna, Ferrara şehirlerini gezer ve 1675 yılının Haziran ayında ikisi Venedik'e varır. Venedik'te, kendilerinden başka iki İngiliz soylu kişiyle birlikte İstanbul'a gidecek olan bir vapura binerler.
Dalmaçya kıyıları ve İyon denizi adalarından geçtikten sonra Zakinthos, Kithira adalarında demir atarlar. Dilos'a da uğradıktan sonra nihayet İstanbul'a varırlar. Yolculuklarının devamında Bursa ve Akhisar (Thyateira)'dan geçerek İzmir'e varıp bir süre burada kalırlar. Yaptıkları ikinci yolculukta ise Zakinthos'dan Patras'a geçip Delfi'ye gelirler, oradan Atina'ya geçip Atina ve tüm Attika'yı gezerler.Spon Wheler ile birlikte 50'ye ulaşan el yazması kitap ve 600'den fazla sikke biriktirir.
İlk baskısı 1678 yılında Lyon'da gerçekleşen üç ciltlik eseri büyük bir edebiyat olayı ve seyahatname türünün gelişiminde bir kilometre taşı olarak karşılanır. Yerinde inceleme sonucu olup hiçbir söz hırsızlığı içermeyen bu eser çağdaş yunan gerçekliğine de atıfta bulunur. Eserin ikinci cildinde gezginlere yararlı olmak amacıyla çağdaş yunanca dilinin bir sözcük dizini yer almaktadır. Üçüncü cildin tamamıysa Spon'ın seyahati boyunca biriktirmiş olduğu sikke ve yazıtları içerir. Bu eser birçok yeni baskı yapar ve ingilizceye çevrilir; Spon'dan 4 yıl sonra Wheler de aynı gezinin vakayınamesini yayınlarsa da yazdığı kitap Spon'ın eserinin vasat bir kopyasından başka bir şey değildir. Spon ayrıca 1680 yılında "Genevre Tarihi" kitabını ve 1685'te eski yazıtlardan oluşan bir katalog yayınlar.
Spon, 1685 yılında, 38 yaşındayken ve tamamen yoksul olarak Genevre kentinde ölür.

Jacob Spon (1647-1685) was son of a Lyonese doctor and scholar of Greek. Spon himself was a doctor with a keen interest in archaeology, as well as a fervent protestant. With his two journeys to the East (1674 and 1676), Spon was the first traveller to tour and explore territories in a scientific manner.
In 1662, Spon travelled to Strasburg to study Greek and Latin, languages necessary for the study of medicine at the time. In Strasburg, Spon met Charles Patin, a man passionate about numismatics, who transmitted his interest in epigraphy and coins to the young Spon. Spon continued his studies in Paris and Montpellier, where he became doctor in medicine in 1667. In 1671, Spon started practicing medicine in Lyon. At the age of twenty-eight, he published a book on the uses of coffee, tea and chocolate, and in 1673 a study on the monuments of Lyon. Spon also kept a lively correspondence with several erudite clergymen.
By 1674, Spon had published a commentary on the “Description of Athens” by Jesuit Père Babin, and later became involved in a scholarly debate with A. G. Guillet, on the same subject. In 1674, he was going to escort the French king's antiquarian in his journey to Greece, but was delayed. Eventually, he sailed from Marseilles to Rome and stayed in that city for five months, studying antiquities and inscriptions. It was there that he met British naturalist George Wheler.

The intention of this course series seeks to provide an insight into classical Aristotelian logic in order to strengthen critical reasoning/rhetoric skills amongst the activist community. This course allowed for individuals to better represent themselves and the struggles they support in interviews, and will better allow for participants to hold-their-own in media interviews and in conversation amongst detractors from causes actively supported by Peace House/Affiliates.
Each course will be structured into a two-hour block containing two parts: theory and application. The first hour will contain teachings from varying works of antiquity, from Aristotle's Logic to the Socratic dialogues and orations from Cicero & other distinguished rhetoricians. From here, theoretical knowledge will be applied in addressing/critiquing potent arguments through the history of philosophy, from Descartes Cogito Ergo Sum to Immanuel Kant's metaphysical theory. The second one-hour block will deal with the application of technique acquired in the aforementioned block. Through consensus, we will decide which topic those in attendance would like to address, and will allow for a demonstration of informal logic and constructive criticism relative to the presentation of said argument (Note: if it is felt that there should be scheduled topics by course attendees, methodology for topic selection is subject to change).
-Presentation One: Introduction to Logic/Rhetoric: Presentation One will address one-third of Aristotle's triangle-of-rhetoric: Logos
1) Layman's Logic vs. Logic as a Math/theoretical science (If everyone has opinions and they're all equally valid, why does debate exist?) -This section will cover the distinction between logic and Logic, as well as an introduction to the syllogistic form/ overview of the structure of argument. The distinction between Formal and Informal Logic will be made.
2) Logic in Practice; a reading of Plato's Euthyphro.
-A group reading of Euthyphro will demonstrate how to address an opponent's argument on an opponent's terms. This will further explain the structure of argument and how many disputes remain unresolved due to axiomatic non-concessions.
-Follow-Up to Presentation One; Debate using per-determined axioms

Today has been pretty bad, here's my personal statement - If I don't get accepted by Henley or BNU, I'm screwed. Kingston is so clearly out of the window.
Creativity allows the mind to work and process ideas, and ideas are there to inspire; inspiration motivates you to make your mark and stand out from everyone else around you – how you chose to do this, is what sets you apart from everyone else and once you have done this, you know you’re an artist.
I wish to do the Art Foundation course so it can help me grow as an artist. I want the experience and the opportunity to be able to explore the different types of art, so that I can express my ideas and creative thoughts in the best possible way. I am always thinking of amazing ideas and visualising how I would like them appear in reality but sometimes find it difficult to construct these; I am hoping the Art Foundation course will help me to overcome this problem and improve my way of processing the fore-mentioned ideas using different mediums.
At secondary school, I was given the opportunity to try art, graphics and design technology for a few years; which I enjoyed thoroughly and produced some great pieces of work. Unfortunately, when it came to picking my GCSEs, I chose the academic subjects. I later discovered I was not interested them and longed to do something creative. At the same time, I knew that now I had made the decision and I had to stick with it. Three months before the end of the school year, I took up the full course Graphics GCSE and produced an amazing piece of coursework, in a quarter of the time that the rest of the class had. This was awarded an A*, but unfortunately when it came to the exam, my theoretical knowledge was weak, as I had missed the whole first year, and this brought my grade down to a C.
This experience has taught me, that I should be using my strength, creativity, to further myself in life, and despite the high levels of competition in the art and design industry; I know that if I try, I have the potential to be the best at whatever I do. One day, I hope become a successful designer. I think this line of work is almost perfect for me, as the design industry is constantly changing and new solutions are always needed. Creative minds need stimulation, and only changes can allow that – without these changes work can become boring and eventually you lose interest and it’s no longer exciting; it becomes a duty. I want to be in place where I am learning new things, developing what I already know, and always improving; I think life becomes pointless when you stop doing these. The art and design industry has so many options and different things to try, it’s challenging and stimulating – and I know that I would be making a huge mistake, even if I was to consider working in a different field.
I am inspired by people who aren’t scared to do something different and change the norm. David LaChapelle is one of a kind and you just need to see his photographs to know that. His unique style is what makes him stand out from all the other photographers. If you were to compare celebrity portraits; you would see several similar poses, lighting and tones in order to show that particular person in the “best way” and then there would be one distinctive portrait, outlandish and absolutely insane – that portrait that will stand out and imprint itself in your brain and that portrait will most probably have been taking by David LaChapelle.
I would love to be able to produce outrageous but amazing pieces of work, that are both loved and loathed. I want to know I made it by working hard, and that I used my talents to do something worth while and possibly make a difference. I want my work to inspire others, that look for inspiration; like David LaChapelle or Banksy inspire me. I know what I want most, and I know how to get there but first I need to improve my skills and learn to explore and experiment. I have to turn my dreams into reality; no one else will – when I do, I know it will be the best feeling in the world. That alone is inspiration and motivation.
Baria (18), is a school student from the Volta Region of Ghana. Like all Ghanaian students, ICT is one of her core subjects, but her school has neither electricity nor computers, so she and her fellow students must rely entirely on theoretical knowledge to pass their examinations. A hand-drawn poster of a keyboard, the old motherboard, hard drive and CD drive are the school's only ICT resources.
