Empirical experimentation on three types of mythological imagery--a Classical Greek pot, a frieze from Hellenistic Pergamon and a second-century CE Roman sarcophagus--enables Katharina Lorenz to demonstrate how theoretical approaches to images (specifically, iconology, semiotics, and image studies) impact the meanings we elicit from Greek and Roman art. A guide to Classical images of myth, and also a critical history of Classical archaeology's attempts to give meaning to pictures, this book establishes a dialogue with the wider field of art history and proposes a new framework for the study of ancient visual culture. It will be essential reading not just for students of classical art history and archaeology, but for anyone interested in the possibilities--and the history--of studying visual culture"-- $c Provided by publisher. 520 2 $a "Proposes a new framework for the study of (ancient) visual culture based on engagement with Greek and Roman mythological imagery, appealing to those seeking to better their understanding of Greek and Roman cultural history; relates historiography and method development in Classical archaeology and ancient art history to the art history of more modern periods, and will therefore be of interest to readers interested in the Classical world and those concerned with more recent historical periods; tracks intellectual developments in different contexts and carves out their similarities and differences, speaking to readers from different intellectual backgrounds and familiarising them with broader developments in Western European art history"--Publisher's website. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a The Experiment : Methods, Images, Objects -- [1] Iconology -- Introducing Iconology -- Iconology in Action -- Narratives of Object and Meaning -- [2] Semiotics -- Introducing Semiotics -- Semiotics in Action -- Narratives of Sign and Signification -- [3] Image Studies -- Introducing Image Studies -- Image Studies in Action -- Narratives of Space and Perspective -- The Experiment : a Summary. 650 0 $a Art, Classical $x Philosophy. 650 0 $a Art, Classical $x History. 650 0 $a Mythology, Greek, in art. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85089397 650 0 $a Mythology, Roman, in art. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh97002686 650 0 $a Visual communication $x Philosophy. 650 0 $a Visual communication $x History. 650 0 $a Image (Philosophy) $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh91002569 650 0 $a Semiotics and art. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002008752 650 0 $a Classical antiquities. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85026692 650 7 $a ART $x Ancient & Classical. $x Ancient & Classical. $2 bisacsh 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210020340.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D2A242EE065511E8AD8CF06897128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
