The Arch of Titus: From Jerusalem to Rome—and Back

Editat de Steven Fine
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 iul 2021
The Arch of Titus: From Jerusalem to Rome—and Back explores the shifting meanings and significance of the Arch of Titus from the Jewish War of 66–74 CE to the present—for Romans, Christians and especially for Jews. Built by triumphant Romans, this triumphal monument was preserved by medieval Christians, lauded by modern visitors and dictators and imitated around the world. The Arch of Titus has special significance for the once-defeated Jews. Its menorah is now the national symbol of modern Israel.

The Arch of Titus: From Jerusalem to Rome—and Back assembles an international array of scholars to explore the Arch in all of its complexity. This volume celebrates an exhibition mounted at Yeshiva University Museum and is the final statement of the Yeshiva University Arch of Titus Project.

Recenzii

"The publication is a compelling survey of the Arch of Titus through the centuries and a worthy tribute to both Fine and this exceptional survival from the ancient world."
- Steven H. Wander, University of Connecticut, in Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2022.06.27.

"Der Sammelband wird so zu einem hochspannenden Beitrag zur Rezeptionsgeschichte des Titus-Bogens und er unterstreicht, wie sehr das Monument ein zentraler Ort globaler Kulturgeschichte ist."
- Achim Lichtenberger, Münster (Westf.), in Theologische Literaturzeitung 147 (2022) 9.
