Interpreting the Images of Greek Myths Junker Klaus
From the age of Homer until late antiquity the culture of ancient Greece and Rome was permeated by images of Greek myths. This 2011 book provides a concise introduction to the interpretation of the images of Greek myths. Gods and heroes were represented as statues, on vase and wall paintings, on temples, on sarcophagi as well as in other media.
Ancient artists were well aware of the potential - but also the limitations - of these 'silent' images and of the strategies that made them 'speak' to the audience/viewer. Its main aim is to make the pictorial versions of the myths comprehensible on their own terms. The book explains the theoretical and methodological issues at stake and discusses in detail a number of case studies.
It will be useful and stimulating for all undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in classical mythology and ancient art.
