Christian Responses to Roman Art and Architecture: The Second-Century Church Amid the Spaces of Empire
ISBN: 9781107644991 / Angielski / Miękka / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Laura Nasrallah argues that early Christian literature addressed to Greeks and Romans is best understood when read in tandem with the archaeological remains of Roman antiquity. She examines second-century Christianity by looking at the world in which Christians lived and moved and had their being. Early Christians were not divorced from the materiality of the world, nor did they always remain distant from the Greek culture of the time or the rhetoric of Roman power. Nasrallah shows how early Christians took up themes of justice, piety, and even the question of whether humans could be gods....

ISBN: 9783110265934 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

La escuela de pintura de Sición y su fortuna crítica
ISBN: 9781407308197 / Hiszpański / Miękka / 187 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The painters of Sicyon were rulers in their artistic creation that allowed them to combine their natural talent for painting with a scientific method. The main objective of this book is to place Sicyon at the centre of an aesthetic conflict between Plato and Aristotle. The Sicyonian school of painting has always been identified as one of the main enemies of Plato for various reasons, in particular for the use of scientific disciplines that for Plato should be reserved for the study of philosophy or dialectics. By contrast, Aristotle shared many of the aesthetic ideals of the school of Sicyon:...
