Bemerkungen

Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Schutzumschlag leicht berieben, minimale Randläsuren, Fleck auf Vorderschnitt, Buchblock sauber / dust jacket lightly rubbed, minimal edgewear, stain on fore-edge, book block clean. - This volume of ten essays by classicists, art historians and archaeologists engages with the intellectual challenge that is making sense of Greek art. Chronologically, the essays cover the so-called Archaic period in Greece, from 750-500 BCE, up to the Crystal Palace at Sydenham in mid-ninetcenth- century Britain. With this vast historical panorama, the volume offers a series of discrete historical case-studies, with a surprising overlap in the recurring themes of originality and reproduction, cultural identities and desire. / Contents List of Illustrations List of Contributors Introduction 1 Contextual Iconography: The Horses of Artemis Orthia Nicki Waugh 2 Reconsidering the Meanings of Athenian Figured Vases Zosia Archibald 3 Reflections of Greek Myth in Etruria: Thetis Vedia Izzet 4 Aphrodite’s Mirror: Reflections of Greek Art in Roman Houses Shelley Hales 5 The Archaic Style in Sculpture in the Eyes of Ancient and Modern Viewers Christopher H.
