Marble, Memory, and Meaning in the Four Pompeian Styles of Wall Painting MARBLE, MEMORY, AND MEANING IN THE FOUR POMPEIAN STYLES OF WALL PAINTING by Lynley J. McAlpine A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Classical Art and Archaeology) in the University of Michigan 2014 Doctoral Committee: Professor Elaine K. Gazda, Chair Professor Lisa Nevett Professor David Potter Professor Nicola Terrenato Emeritus Professor Norman Yoffee The difference between false memories and true ones is the same as for jewels: it is always the false ones that look the most real, the most brilliant. Salvador Dalí, The Secret Life of Salvador Dalí © Lynley McAlpine All Rights Reserved 2013 Acknowledgements This project would have been impossible without the guidance of my advisor and dissertation chair, Elaine Gazda, who has provided unflagging support for all aspects of my work. I am grateful to have been able to work under the supervision of someone who I consider a model for the kind of scholar I hope to become: one who has a keen critical eye and who values collaboration and innovation. I have also benefited greatly from the sensible advice of Lisa Nevett, who has always helped me to recognize the possibilities and limitations of my approaches and evidence. David Potter’s perspective has been indispensable in determining how literary and historical sources could be employed responsibly in a study that focuses mainly on material culture. Nicola Terrenato has encouraged me to develop a critical and rigorous approach, and his scholarship has been an important model for my own. Finally, Norman Yoffee has been a continual source of advice and guidance, while opening my eyes to the ways my research can reach across disciplinary boundaries. I also would not have been able to write my dissertation without the financial support of the Memoria Romana Fellowship and the scholarly guidance of Karl Galinsky, whose direction and encouragement helped me to integrate memory studies into my research in a balanced and productive fashion. I have also benefited from the generous financial support of the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and from the Interdepartmental Program in Classical Art and Archaeology and Rackham Graduate School at the University of Michigan. Thank you in particular to my parents for their unquestioning and constant support as I work toward my goals. Thanks to my family and friends for their patience and understanding when I have been absorbed in my work. Special thanks to Chris Laine for his tireless help and encouragement during the final stages of this project. ii Table of Contents Acknowledgements ii List of Figures vi List of Appendices x Abstract xi CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION 1 I.

  • VESPASIAN. AD 68, Though Not a Particularly Constructive Year For
    138 VESPASIAN. AD 68, though not a particularly constructive year for Nero, was to prove fertile ground for senators lion the make". Not that they were to have the time to build anything much other than to carve out a niche for themselves in the annals of history. It was not until the dust finally settled, leaving Vespasian as the last contender standing, that any major building projects were to be initiated under Imperial auspices. However, that does not mean that there is nothing in this period that is of interest to this study. Though Galba, Otho and Vitellius may have had little opportunity to indulge in any significant building activity, and probably given the length and nature of their reigns even less opportunity to consider the possibility of building for their future glory, they did however at the very least use the existing imperial buildings to their own ends, in their own ways continuing what were by now the deeply rooted traditions of the principate. Galba installed himself in what Suetonius terms the palatium (Suet. Galba. 18), which may not necessarily have been the Golden House of Nero, but was part at least of the by now agglomerated sprawl of Imperial residences in Rome that stretched from the summit of the Palatine hill across the valley where now stands the Colosseum to the slopes of the Oppian, and included the Golden House. Vitellius too is said to have used the palatium as his base in Rome (Suet. Vito 16), 139 and is shown by Suetonius to have actively allied himself with Nero's obviously still popular memory (Suet.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION Background The present study concerns materials used for Pompeian wall paintings.1 In focus are plasters of the early period, related to the Samnite period and the so called First style. My earlier experiences the field of ancient materials were studies of Roman plasters at the Villa of Livia at Prima Porta and fragments of wall decorations from the demolished buildings underneath the church San Lorenzo in Lucina in Rome. These studies led to the hypothesis that technology reflects not only the natural (geographical) resources available but also the ambitions within a society, a moment in time, and the economic potential of the commissioner.2 Later, during two years within the Swedish archaeological project at Pompeii, it was my task to study the plasters used in one of the houses of insula V 1, an experience that led to the perception that specific characteristics are linked to plasters used over time. In the period 2003-2005, funding by the Swedish Research Council made possible to test the hypotheses. The present method was developed at insula I 9 and the Forum of Pompeii with the approval of the Soprintendenza archeological di Pompei and in collaboration with the directors of two international archaeological teams.3 It became evident that plaster’s composition changes over time, and eight groups of chronologically pertinent plasters were identified and defined A-H. Based on these results, I assume there is a connection between the typology and the relative chronology in which the plasters appear on the walls. I also believe these factors are related not only in single buildings or quarters but over the site and that, hypothetically, the variations observed are related to technology, craftsmanship and fashion.

  • The Nature of Hellenistic Domestic Sculpture in Its Cultural and Spatial Contexts
    THE NATURE OF HELLENISTIC DOMESTIC SCULPTURE IN ITS CULTURAL AND SPATIAL CONTEXTS DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Craig I. Hardiman, B.Comm., B.A., M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Dr. Mark D. Fullerton, Advisor Dr. Timothy J. McNiven _______________________________ Advisor Dr. Stephen V. Tracy Graduate Program in the History of Art Copyright by Craig I. Hardiman 2005 ABSTRACT This dissertation marks the first synthetic and contextual analysis of domestic sculpture for the whole of the Hellenistic period (323 BCE – 31 BCE). Prior to this study, Hellenistic domestic sculpture had been examined from a broadly literary perspective or had been the focus of smaller regional or site-specific studies. Rather than taking any one approach, this dissertation examines both the literary testimonia and the material record in order to develop as full a picture as possible for the location, function and meaning(s) of these pieces. The study begins with a reconsideration of the literary evidence. The testimonia deal chiefly with the residences of the Hellenistic kings and their conspicuous displays of wealth in the most public rooms in the home, namely courtyards and dining rooms. Following this, the material evidence from the Greek mainland and Asia Minor is considered. The general evidence supports the literary testimonia’s location for these sculptures. In addition, several individual examples offer insights into the sophistication of domestic decorative programs among the Greeks, something usually associated with the Romans.

  • Mount Vesuvius Is Located on the Gulf of Naples, in Italy
    Mount Vesuvius is located on the Gulf of Naples, in Italy. It is close to the coast and lies around 9km from the city of Naples. Despite being the only active volcano on mainland Europe, and one of the most dangerous volcanoes, almost 3 million people live in the immediate area. Did you know..? Mount Vesuvius last erupted in 1944. Photo courtesy of Ross Elliot(@flickr.com) - granted under creative commons licence – attribution Mount Vesuvius is one of a number of volcanoes that form the Campanian volcanic arc. This is a series of volcanoes that are active, dormant or extinct. Vesuvius Campi Flegrei Stromboli Mount Vesuvius is actually a Vulcano Panarea volcano within a volcano. Mount Etna Somma is the remain of a large Campi Flegrei del volcano, out of which Mount Mar di Sicilia Vesuvius has grown. Did you know..? Mount Vesuvius is 1,281m high. Mount Etna is another volcano in the Campanian arc. It is Europe’s most active volcano. Mount Vesuvius last erupted in 1944. This was during the Second World War and the eruption caused great problems for the newly arrived Allied forces. Aircraft were destroyed, an airbase was evacuated and 26 people died. Three villages were also destroyed. 1944 was the last recorded eruption but scientists continue to monitor activity as Mount Vesuvius is especially dangerous. Did you know..? During the 1944 eruption, the lava flow stopped at the steps of the local church in the village of San Giorgio a Cremano. The villagers call this a miracle!

    This colonnade forms part of the forum. The forum was a public square which would have been used for meetings, criminal trials, public speeches, and markets. Colonnade Many streets remain in Pompeii. Here you can see cobbled streets with pavements on each side. In the distance is Mount Vesuvius – the volcano that destroyed Pompeii. Street In ancient Pompeii, there were many types of entertainment. One popular pastime was the theatre where people went to watch plays. This theatre had space for 1,000 spectators. Odeon – small theatre The Romans worshipped many gods. This temple is dedicated to Apollo, the god of music, and was built on a high platform to make it look more impressive. Temple of Apollo The House of the Vettii was one of the most impressive and richly decorated houses in Pompeii. It was named after the owners, Aulus Vettius Conviva and Aulus Vettius Restitutus. House of the Vettii The Romans use mosaics to decorate wealthy houses and public buildings. Each mosaic used thousands of tesserae (small pieces of tile or stone) to create a picture or pattern. Mosaic Another popular way of decorating rooms was with wall paintings (frescoes). This one, in the Casa del Menandro (House of Menander) shows a hunting party. Can you see the dogs and the man with a bow and arrow? Paintings in Casa del Menandro Myths and legends were a common source of inspiration for Roman artists. This painting depicts Narcissus who was so beautiful that he fell in love with his own reflection. Painting of Narcissus Archaeologists at Pompeii have found so many artefacts, it is not possible to have them all on display at once.

  • Map 44 Latium-Campania Compiled by N
    Map 44 Latium-Campania Compiled by N. Purcell, 1997 Introduction The landscape of central Italy has not been intrinsically stable. The steep slopes of the mountains have been deforested–several times in many cases–with consequent erosion; frane or avalanches remove large tracts of regolith, and doubly obliterate the archaeological record. In the valley-bottoms active streams have deposited and eroded successive layers of fill, sealing and destroying the evidence of settlement in many relatively favored niches. The more extensive lowlands have also seen substantial depositions of alluvial and colluvial material; the coasts have been exposed to erosion, aggradation and occasional tectonic deformation, or–spectacularly in the Bay of Naples– alternating collapse and re-elevation (“bradyseism”) at a staggeringly rapid pace. Earthquakes everywhere have accelerated the rate of change; vulcanicity in Campania has several times transformed substantial tracts of landscape beyond recognition–and reconstruction (thus no attempt is made here to re-create the contours of any of the sometimes very different forerunners of today’s Mt. Vesuvius). To this instability must be added the effect of intensive and continuous intervention by humanity. Episodes of depopulation in the Italian peninsula have arguably been neither prolonged nor pronounced within the timespan of the map and beyond. Even so, over the centuries the settlement pattern has been more than usually mutable, which has tended to obscure or damage the archaeological record. More archaeological evidence has emerged as modern urbanization spreads; but even more has been destroyed. What is available to the historical cartographer varies in quality from area to area in surprising ways.

  • The Insula of the Menander at Pompeii: Interim Report
    THE INSULA OF THE MENANDER AT POMPEII: INTERIM REPORT By ROGER LING, F.S.A. INTRODUCTION THE British project in the Insula of the Menander at Pompeii was instituted in 1978 by the late Dr. J. B. Ward-Perkins in consultation with the then Superintendent of Antiquities for Campania, Professor Fausto Zevi. Funding has until now been provided by a generous grant from Imperial Tobacco Ltd., a proportion of the profits of the exhibition 'Pompeii 79' held at the Royal Academy of Arts, London, in 1976-7. To these mentors and sponsors the author is deeply indebted—to Imperial Tobacco for their enlightened patronage of archaeological research, to Professor Zevi for first suggesting a programme of recording and analysis in the Insula of the Menander, and above all to Dr. Ward-Perkins for taking up the suggestion and largely shaping the present project. This project is in a very real sense his brainchild, and it is as a tribute to his memory that we intend to continue with it and bring it to completion in the manner that he would have wished. Special thanks must also be given to Dr. Stefano De Caro, the Director of the site at Pompeii, who has been unfailingly courteous and helpful over the past five years, and to his henchmen, Dr. Federico, the assistant director, Sig. Pelli, the technical director, Sig. Cirillo, his assistant, and Sig. Sicignano, the head foreman, for their invaluable practical assistance. Finally, mention must be made of the chief members of the team. After a brief exploratory season in September 1978, full programmes of work have been conducted in August-September 1979, 1980, 1981 and 1982.
