Reuse and Renovation in Roman Material Culture

Herausgeber: Ng, Diana Y; Swetnam-Burland, Molly

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book is for those interested in the Roman world. It treats the reuse of sculptural and architectural materials in new contexts, and explores the new associations that these 'out of place' materials created for their viewers. Materials were sometimes used to create new meanings, and sometimes for economic expedience.
