The Oxford handbook of Roman sculpture: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "The Oxford handbook of Roman sculpture" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

The study of Roman sculpture has been an essential part of the disciplines of Art History and Classics since the eighteenth century. Famous works like the Laocon, the Arch of Titus, and the colossal portrait of Constantine are familiar to millions. Again and again, scholars have returned to sculpture to answer questions about Roman art, society, and history. Indeed, the field of Roman sculptural studies encompasses not only the full chronological range of the Roman world but also its expansive geography, and a variety of artistic media, formats, sizes, and functions. Exciting new theories, methods, and approaches have transformed the specialized literature on the subject in recent decades.
Rather than creating another chronological catalogue of representative examples from various periods, genres, and settings, The Oxford Handbook of Roman Sculpture synthesizes current best practices for studying this central medium of Roman art, situating it within the larger fields of Art History, Classical Archaeology, and Roman Studies. This comprehensive volume fills the gap between introductory textbooks and highly focused professional literature. The Oxford Handbook of Roman Sculpture conveniently presents new technical, scientific, literary, and theoretical approaches to the study of Roman sculpture in one reference volume while simultaneously complementing textbooks and other publications that present well-known works in the corpus. The contributors to this volume address metropolitan and provincial material from the early republican period through late antiquity in an engaging and fresh style. Authoritative, innovative, and up-to-date, The Oxford Handbook of Roman Sculpture will remain an invaluable resource for years to come.

WE would like to thank Stefan Vranka at Oxford University Press for his interest in and support of this volume, as well as Sarah Pirovitz at OUP and Eric Cline of The George Washington University for their assistance and encouragement throughout. We also thank Lea Stirling and Ellen Perry for their comments and input on the initial proposal and their continued input during the planning and editing of the volume. Peter Stewart and Elizabeth Fisher also made helpful suggestions during the planning phases. We especially thank all of the contributors for the prompt submission of their essays, images, and image permission letters; their diligence enabled the timely production of this volume. We are grateful to the many professionals at museums and other institutions who facilitated granting of permissions and publication of images. In addition, many of the authors wish to thank colleagues (for input on their contributions and various other modes of assistance) and institutions (for access to materials and financial support); however, as space did not permit individual acknowledgements following each essay, we take this opportunity to thank all those who had a hand in supporting our contributors efforts for this volume. For assisting with indexing the volume, we thank Alison Rittershaus. Finally, we would like to offer special thanks to our families for their patience and encouragement: Elise, especially to Andrew M. Smith II and Eleanor Abigail Friedland; and Melanie, to Gregg, Elizabeth, and Margaret Sobocinski.
