Auf einer kunstlosen Rosettenstele des 4. Jahrhunderts v. Chr. beteuert ein in Athen ansässiger Metöke, er habe seine fromme Mutter für alle sichtbar nach göttlichem Recht fromm begraben und erwarte dafür Lob und Anerken nung (CEG II 533): JlflTI~pa E0qKa ooiwc; ooiav TOte; rramv iöf:oOm avO' wv EUAoyiac; Kat Erraivwv ä~t6c; El)ll Die holprigen Verse verbinden in naiver Weise die beiden leitenden Motive der attischen Grabkunst: das religiöse und das öffentlich-soziale. Es liegt nahe, diese Gesichtspunkte auch auf die Interpretation der attischen Grabreliefs anzuwenden, die den Verstorbenen mit seinen Angehörigen zeigen. Die Mei nungen darüber, wie dies geschehen könnte, gehen allerdings im Laufe einer meh~ als 200jährigen Deutungsgeschichte weit auseinander. Schon in Goethes Zeit stand neben der Auffassung, die Reliefs seien reine Erinnerungsbilder, die andere, derzufolge sie den verklärten Verstorbenen in seinem Heroon wiedergeben. Die zuletzt genannte Deutung aus dem Geist der christlichen Romantik konnte in der Forschung zwar nie richtig Fuß fassen. Ein religiöses Element läßt sich aber auch heute nicht leugnen, denn die Stelen sind wie die Gräber heilige, rituell gepflegte Gegenstände. Auch die Darstellungen auf den Stelen sind keine vom Tode ungetrübten Repräsentationsbilder. Vielfach fin den sich Anzeichen von Trauer und nicht selten ist der Tote in Stellung und Ausdruck von seinen Angehörigen geschieden. Auf der anderen Seite besteht kein Zweifel, daß die Grabreliefs auch einen, politischen' Aspekt haben, der Gegenstand von gesetzlichen Bestimmungen war.

Greek Art and Aesthetics in the Fourth Century B.C. analyzes the broad character of art produced during this period, providing in-depth analysis of and commentary on many of its most notable examples of sculpture and painting. Taking into consideration developments in style and subject matter, and elucidating political, religious, and intellectual context, William A. P. Childs argues that Greek art in this era was a natural outgrowth of the high classical period and focused on developing the rudiments of individual expression that became the hallmark of the classical in the fifth century. As Childs shows, in many respects the art of this period corresponds with the philosophical inquiry by Plato and his contemporaries into the nature of art and speaks to the contemporaneous sense of insecurity and renewed religious devotion. Delving into formal and iconographic developments in sculpture and painting, Childs examines how the sensitive, expressive quality of these works seamlessly links the classical and Hellenistic periods, with no appreciable rupture in the continuous exploration of the human condition. Another overarching theme concerns the nature of “style as a concept of expression,” an issue that becomes more important given the increasingly multiple styles and functions of fourth-century Greek art. Childs also shows how the color and form of works suggested the unseen and revealed the profound character of individuals and the physical world.

The ancient Greeks devoted a significant portion of their poetic and artistic energy to exploring themes of death. Vermeule examines the facts and fictions of Greek death, including burial and mourning, visions of the underworld, souls and ghosts, the value of heroic death in battle, the quest for immortality, the linked powers of death, sleep, and love, and more. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1979.

Obwohl die Insel Kreta reiches Material zur Untersuchung von Fragen bietet, die im Mittelpunkt der Forschungen zur gesellschaftlichen Organisation im frühen Griechenland stehen, liegt die Beschäftigung mit der archaischen und klassischen Periode Kretas seit jeher am Rand des altertumswissen¬schaftlichen Interesses. Die Beiträge des Tagungsbandes analysieren aus archäologischer und historischer Sicht die strukturellen Veränderungsprozesse, die sich während der archaisch-klassischen Zeit in den kretischen Bürgerstaaten vollzogen. Erstmals werden damit die unterschiedlichen Forschungsansätze der einzelnen Disziplinen zu einer einheitli¬chen Perspektive zusammengeführt. An mehreren Beispielen wird gezeigt, wie es der kretischen Aristokratie gelang, den Prozess der Poliswerdung aktiv zu gestalten und eine stabile, da institutionalisierte Adelsherrschaft zu etablieren. Deutlich wird zudem, dass die Veränderungen in der materiellen Kultur, die seit dem Ende des 7. Jahrhunderts v. Chr. durch eine zunehmende Austerität gekennzeichnet ist, Manifestationen des strukturellen Wandels der politischen und sozialen Organisation der kretischen Poleis waren.

Chersonesan Studies 1 presents the painted grave stelai of the Early Hellenistic necropolis of Chersonesos Taurike, a Greek city on the northern shore of the Black Sea. This unique collection of over one hundred objects is of major interest to students of ancient art and Greek culture. Their polychrome decoration has been extraordinarily well preserved, a rarity in the ancient world. They compose a remarkable, even unique, body of evidence of Greek funerary memorial sculpture: their shapes are gender-specific, their depicted objects are gender- and age-specific, and they can be ascribed to a handful of specific workshops. Their surprising uniformity requires an explanation, since comparable assemblages from other parts of the Greek world show substantial diversity in all these aspects. This book provides the first complete catalog and description of the stelai, together with full-color illustrations of all the significant stelai and many details. Through his painstaking recovery and reassembling of fragments, as well as the use of advanced photographic techniques, Richard Posamentir has been able to add a whole new dimension to the study of these artifacts. The volume covers the history of the stelai, analysis of the workshops, and reconstruction of the necropolis that the stelai originally graced. A comparison chapter discusses how the stelai fit into the context of Greek funerary art and provides insights into the culture and society of a city on the Black Sea.
