Medieval Art Second Edition by Marilyn Stokstad
This beautifully produced survey of over a thousand years of Western art and architecture introduces the reader to a vast period of history ranging from ancient Rome to the age of exploration. The monumental arts and the diverse minor arts of the Middle Ages are presented here within the social, religious, and political frameworks of lands as varied as France and Denmark, Spain and Turkey. Marilyn Stokstad also teaches her reader how to look at medieval art-which aspects of architecture, sculpture, or painting are important and for what reasons. Stylistic and iconographic issues and themes are thoroughly addressed with attention paid to aesthetic and social contexts.Marilyn Stokstad is the Judith Harris Murphy Distinguished Professor of Art History at the University of Kansas, Lawrence, and the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art's consultant curator of medieval art. She is the author of the textbook Art History, which was published in 1995. A half-dozen books, several book chapters, reviews and museum publications, as well as a vast list of essays for periodicals, make up her scholarly work. She has also worked as an editorial consultant for the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art and the St. Louis Art Museum. The World Book Encyclopedia, as well as several prominent book publishers, are all located in St. Louis.
