Virgin Sacrifice in Classical Art: Women, Agency, and the Trojan War: Routledge Research in Gender and Art
Autor Anthony F. Mangierien Limba Engleză Hardback – 3 oct 2017
This book tells the stories of the sacrificial maidens in order to help the reader discover the meanings bound up in these myths for historical people. In exploring the representations of Iphigeneia and Polyxena in Greek, Etruscan, and Roman art, this book offers a broader cultural history that reveals what people in the ancient world were seeking in these stories. The result is an interdisciplinary study that offers new interpretations on the meaning of the sacrificial virgin as a cultural and ideological construction. This is the first book-length study of virgin sacrifice in ancient art and the first to provide an interpretive framework within which to understand its imagery.

Recenzii
"This refreshing, multi-faceted approach to analyzing visual representations of a most intriguing topic is a powerful argument for using myth, depicted both in art and literature, as a means for understanding how women and men in the classical Mediterranean world saw themselves and each other."
- Keely Elizabeth Heuer, State University of New York at New Paltz
