Description
The Oxford Handbook of Roman Sculpture brings together current best practices for studying this central medium of Roman art. Situated within the larger fields of Art History, Classical Archaeology, and Roman Studies, it synthesises new approaches to understanding Roman sculpture. This comprehensive volume presents technical, scientific, literary, and theoretical perspectives in one reference work. The contributors address metropolitan and provincial material from the early republican period through late antiquity, offering an engaging and fresh style. Filling the gap between introductory textbooks and highly focused professional literature, The Oxford Handbook of Roman Sculpture is an authoritative resource for years to come. With its innovative approach and up-to-date content, this handbook will be invaluable for scholars and students seeking a comprehensive understanding of Roman sculpture.
