BARRINGER, Judith M., The Art and Archaeology of Ancient Greece. Cambridge University Press, Cambridge (...), 2015. XXI,438p. Richly ills.(B&W as well as full colour photographs and line drawings). Paperback. Nice copy. Like new. May require extra shipping costs: weight including packing from 1 - 2 Kg. 'There is no lack of good introductions to the art and archaeology of ancient Greece, but Barringer's new book - clearly written and presented, incorporating the latest scholarship, and superbly illustrated (many images are new, unusual and uncommonly instructive in themselves) - will occupy the first rank. The narrative is made to order for undergraduate surveys, but even advanced students and scholars will benefit from the book's succinct and perceptive analyses of the themes, functions and cultural contexts of the major monuments of Greek art and architecture. It is that rare thing: a readable survey that intimates the richness, depth and complexity of its subject.' (JEFFREY M. HERWITH).
