Download or read book Gallo Roman Bronzes and the Process of Romanization The Cobannus Hoard written by John Pollini and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-08 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book constitutes the first comprehensive publication of a cache of eight bronzes from east-central Gaul. The types of objects and accompanying inscriptions suggest that these bronzes originally came from a sanctuary of a god named Cobannus. The first part of the book describes, analyzes, and interprets the individual objects, which are divided between the J. Paul Getty Museum and the Shelby White - Leon Levy Collection. The latter part of this work places the cache within a chronological, cultic, and cultural context. The Cobannus hoard is valuable not only from an artistic point of view but also for the information it provides on many different aspects of the religious, social, and political life of Roman Gaul. The book is lavishly illustrated, with 2 maps and 117 illustrations.

This book was released on 2016-08-30 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The "Camillus"-Type in Sculpture To the family, then, we must look for the origin of essen tial features in worship such as sacrifice and its due obser vance. With no certain knowledge of those far-off times, before a state was born, we follow the traditions of his toric Rome back to a possible beginning. In the simple agri cultural life of the early days the father of a family in the most natural way would take up the duties of a priest. Doubt less the recurring seasons suggested offerings to those gods who might, if they chose, injure crops and herds; perhaps, even, some portion of the family-meal was day by day put aside in honor of unseen but dreaded powers. So might the Roman lad who watched all this ask its purpose and, hearing of mysterious deities who demanded propitiation, might come to share in his father's belief. Likewise, the daughter, busy about the hearth, may have grown almost unconsciously into the service of the Hearth-goddess as she shared with her mother the duty of keeping the home-fire burning. Thus, in all naturalness and simplicity, the home became a training school for priestly offices and generation after generation absorbed the spirit of Roman religion and its growing ritual simultaneously with paternal teaching concerning fields and ocks or maternal instruction as to spinning and weaving.

Download or read book From Republic to Empire written by John Pollini and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2012-11-20 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Political image-making—especially from the Age of Augustus, when the Roman Republic evolved into a system capable of governing a vast, culturally diverse empire—is the focus of this masterful study of Roman culture. Distinguished art historian and classical archaeologist John Pollini explores how various artistic and ideological symbols of religion and power, based on Roman Republican values and traditions, were taken over or refashioned to convey new ideological content in the constantly changing political world of imperial Rome. Religion, civic life, and politics went hand in hand and formed the very fabric of ancient Roman society. Visual rhetoric was a most effective way to communicate and commemorate the ideals, virtues, and political programs of the leaders of the Roman State in an empire where few people could read and many different languages were spoken. Public memorialization could keep Roman leaders and their achievements before the eyes of the populace, in Rome and in cities under Roman sway. A leader’s success demonstrated that he had the favor of the gods—a form of legitimation crucial for sustaining the Roman Principate, or government by a “First Citizen.” Pollini examines works and traditions ranging from coins to statues and reliefs. He considers the realistic tradition of sculptural portraiture and the ways Roman leaders from the late Republic through the Imperial period were represented in relation to the divine. In comparing visual and verbal expression, he likens sculptural imagery to the structure, syntax, and diction of the Latin language and to ancient rhetorical figures of speech. Throughout the book, Pollini’s vast knowledge of ancient history, religion, literature, and politics extends his analysis far beyond visual culture to every aspect of ancient Roman civilization, including the empire’s ultimate conversion to Christianity. Readers will gain a thorough understanding of the relationship between artistic developments and political change in ancient Rome.
