Description

A History of Roman Art by Steven L. Tuck offers a comprehensive exploration of Roman artistic achievements, spanning from the city’s inception to the reign of Emperor Constantine. This 1st edition, published by Wiley-Blackwell on December 16, 2014, delves into the creation, function, and significance of art within the Roman world, drawing upon the latest scholarly insights. The textbook is richly illustrated with 375 color photographs and line drawings, presenting a broad definition of Roman art that acknowledges the contributions of diverse cultures. Key themes of Roman cultural inclusivity and art’s role in disseminating Roman values are central to the narrative. Readers will find in-depth discussions of Roman painting, mosaic, sculpture, decorative arts, and architecture, all examined within their historical and cultural contexts. Designed for students, the book includes pedagogical aids such as timelines, defined key terms, a glossary, and sidebars detailing artistic techniques, relevant stories, and ancient authors. Textboxes explore the intersections of art and literature, art from the provinces, and diverse scholarly viewpoints, alongside primary sources in translation. A companion website at www.wiley.com/go/romanart provides additional resources including PowerPoint slides, a glossary, and a timeline.
