Roman Art by Nancy H Ramage
For freshman/senior-level courses in Roman Art, Etruscan and Roman Art, Greek and Roman Art, The Roman World, Roman Civilization, Roman History. Ideal for students who are studying Roman art for the first time, this exceptionally well-illustrated text explores Roman art in the traditional historical manner—with a focus on painting, sculpture, architecture, and minor arts. It assumes no prior acquaintance with the classical world, and explains the necessary linguistic, historical, religious, social, and political background needed to fully understand Roman art.NANCY H. RAMAGE is the Charles A. Dana Professor in the Humanities and the Arts at Ithaca College and recently received the Excellence in Teaching award at her institution. She has been a trustee of the Archaeological Institute of America and on the advisory board of Etruscan Studies, the American Journal of Archaeology, and Dig Magazine, and a member of the Royal Society of Arts in the U.K. She received her doctorate from Harvard University and has wide experience as a lecturer, writer, and museum consultant. She co-authored two books on material from the excavations at Sardis, one on Greek and Roman sculpture and one on Athenian pottery, and has written many articles on antiquity and its reception in the 18th century.
