Download or read book Images of Myths in Classical Antiquity written by Susan Woodford and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-12-02 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stories take time to tell; Greek and Roman artists had to convey them in static images. How did they go about it? How could they ensure that their scenes would be recognized? What problems did they have? How did they solve them? This generously illustrated book explores the ways classical artists portrayed a variety of myths. It explains how formulas were devised for certain stories; how these inventions could be adapted, developed and even transferred to other myths; how one myth could be distinguished from another; what links there were with daily life and historical propaganda; the influence of changing tastes, and problems still outstanding. Examples are drawn from a wide range of media--vases, murals, mosaics, sarcophagi, sculpture--used by the ancient Greeks and Romans. The myths are mostly those that are also easily recognized in later works of art. No previous knowledge of the subject is assumed, all examples are illustrated and all names, terms and concepts are fully explained. Susan Woodford teaches Greek and Roman art at the University of London and is engaged in research for the Department of Greek and Roman Antiquities at the British Museum. A former Fullbright Scholar and Woodrow Wilson Fellow, she and is author of The Parthenon (Cambridge, 1981), The Art of Greece (Cornell, 1993), An Introduction to Greek Art (Cornell, 1986) and The Trojan War in Ancient Art (Cornell, 1993).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Roman Antiquities, and Ancient Mythology: For Classical Schools Rome was founded by Romulus and a colony from Alba Longa, 753 years, as is commonly thought, before the birth of Christ. The people were divided into three tribes, and each tribe into ten curiæ. The number of tribes was afterwards increased to thirty-five. The people were at first only separated into two ranks; the Patrician and Plebian, but afterwards the Equites or Knights were added, and at a later period, Slavery was introduced - making in all, four classes: Patricians, Knights, plebeians, and Slaves. The Patrician order consisted of those families whose ancestors had been members of the Senate. Those among them who had filled any superior office, were considered noble, and possessed the right of making images of themselves, which were transmitted to their descendants, and formed part of their domestic worship. The Plebeian order was composed of the lowest class of freeman. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Household Gods written by Alexandra Sofroniew and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2016-02-15 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Daily religious devotion in the Greek and Roman worlds centered on the family and the home. Besides official worship in rural sacred areas and at temples in towns, the ancients kept household shrines with statuettes of different deities that could have a deep personal and spiritual meaning. Roman houses were often filled with images of gods. Gods and goddesses were represented in mythological paintings on walls and in decorative mosaics on floors, in bronze and marble sculptures, on ornate silver dining vessels, and on lowly clay oil lamps that lit dark rooms. Even many modest homes had one or more religious objects that were privately venerated. Ranging from the humble to the magnificent, these small objects could be fashioned in any medium from terracotta to precious metal or stone. Showcasing the collections in the Getty Villa, this book’s emphasis on the spiritual beliefs and practices of individuals promises to make the works of Greek and Roman art more accessible to readers. Compelling representations of private religious devotion, these small objects express personal ways of worshiping that are still familiar to us today. A chapter on contemporary domestic worship further enhances the relevance of these miniature sculptures for modern viewers.
