Making sense of Greek art

"This volume of ten essays by classicists, art historians and archaeologists engages with the intellectual challenge that is making sense of Greek art. Chronologically, the essays cover the so-called Archaic period in Greece, from 750-500 BCE, up to the Crystal Palace at Sydenham in mid-nineteenth-century Britain. With this vast historical panorama, the volume offers a series of discrete historical case-studies, with a surprising overlap in the recurring themes of originality and reproduction, cultural identities and desire."--Jacket.
