Wiederverwendung Von Antike Im Mittelalter Die Sicht Des Archaologen Und Die Sicht Des

In the Middle Ages, imaginative re-use was made of architectural components from classical antiquity such as columns, capitals, cornices, and even statues, sarcophagi, reliefs and inscriptions; the motives ranged from simple utilisation of materials through interpretatio christiana to political legitimation. The author demonstrates how this re-use has been assessed by archaeologists, historians and art historians and what insights they have gained.Esch, Arnold is the author of 'Wiederverwendung Von Antike Im Mittelalter Die Sicht Des Archaologen Und Die Sicht Des', published 2005 under ISBN 9783110184266 and ISBN 3110184265.
