Download or read book Antiquities of Athens written by James Stuart and published by Princeton Architectural Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James "Athenian" Stuart and Nicholas Revett's monumental Antiquities of Athens was the first accurate survey of ancient Greek architecture ever completed. Based on precise measured drawings done at the sites of the ancient ruins between 1751 and 1754, these books set a new standard for archaeological investigation in the eighteenth century. In doing so, they also transformed our understanding of Greek architecture and by pointing up differences between Greek and Roman examples fundamentally challenged prevailing notions about a universal classical ideal and fueled the Greek Revival movement that dominated British, European, and American architecture and design for over a century. Originally published in four volumes that appeared between 1762 and 1816, Stuart and Revett's masterwork is presented here in its entirety as part of our Classic Reprint series and features a new introduction by scholar Frank Salmon. With its many images of buildings, plans, sculpture, friezes, and decorative objects such as vases, it remains the logical starting point for anyone interested in Athens, Greece, and its influence on the history of Western architecture. Published in association with The Institute of Classical Architecture and Classical America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leading and emerging, early career scholars in Classical Reception Studies come together in this volume to explore the under-represented area of the Australasian Classical Tradition. They interrogate the interactions between Mediterranean Antiquity and the antipodean worlds of New Zealand and Australia through the lenses of literature, film, theatre and fine art. Of interest to scholars across the globe who research the influence of antiquity on modern literature, film, theatre and fine art, this volume fills a decisive gap in the literature by bringing antipodean research into the spotlight. Following a contextual introduction to the field, the six parts of the volume explore the latest research on subjects that range from the Lord of the Rings and Xena: Warrior Princess franchises to important artists such as Sidney Nolan and local authors whose work offers opportunities for cross-cultural and interdisciplinary analysis with well-known Western authors and artists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ionian Antiquities The Materials which they brought home were thought not unworthy of the Pub Iic The Society therefore directed them to give a Specimen of their Labours out of what they had found molt worthy of Obfervation in Ionia, a Country in many refpe''ts curious, and perhaps, after Attica, the molt deferving the Atte'ntion of a Claflical Tra veller. Athens, it is true, having had the good Fortune to pofiefs more original G'enius than ever was collected in fo narrow a Compafs at one Period, reaped the Fruits of lite rary Competition in a degree that never fell to the lot of any other People, and has been generally allowed to fix the [era which has done molt H-onour to Science, and to take the lead among the antient Greek Republics in matters of Tafte However, it is much to be doubted, whether, upon a fair Enquiry into the Rife and Progrefs of Letters and Arts, they do not, upon the whole, owe as much to Ionia, and the adjoining Coalt, as to any Country of Antiquity. The Knowledge of Natare was firlt taught in the Ionic School: And as Geometry, Aflronom], and other Branches of the Mathematics, were cultivated here fooner than in, other Parts of igreece, it is not extraordinary that the firft Greek Navigators, who palfed the Pillars of Hercules, and extended their Commerce to the Ocean, {hould have been Ionians. Here hmou' had its Birth, arid here it acquired a confiderable degree of Perfe'iion. The firlt Writer, who reduced the Knowledge of Medicine, or the Means of preferving Health, to an Art, was of this Neigh bourhood And here the Father of Poetry produced a Standard for Compofi tion, which no Age or Country have dared to depart from, or have been able to furpafs. But are/jitefiare belongs more particularly to' this Country than to any other; and of the t/yree Greek Order: it feems juftly entitled to the Honour of having invented the two firlt, though one of them only bears its Name for though the Temple of Juno at Argos fuggefled the general Idea of what was after called the Dorie, its Proportions were hri'c eltablilhed here. As to the other Arts which al-fo depend upon Defign, they have flourilhed no where more than in Ionia. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
