Dies ist auch der Grund dafür, weshalb sich eine ungewöhnlich hohe Zahl von BearbeiterInnen zu diesem Projekt zusammengefunden hat: einerseits sollte der zeitliche Rahmen für die Fertigstellung in Grenzen gehalten werden, andererseits aber doch den speziellen Anforderun- gen, die die so unterschiedlichen Gattungen antiker Keramik stellen, Rechnung getragen werden. Die meisten der vorgelegten Stücke sind ganz bzw. nahezu ganz erhaltene Vasen, von denen 49 Ex- emplare bereits in einem kleinen Katalog des Jahres 1993 vorgestellt wurden1. Die Vasen sind Teil der Originalsammlung des Instituts, die aus einer Lehrsammlung hervorge- gangen ist und bereits im Jahre 1865 als „archäologisches Cabinet“ von Karl Schenkl ins Leben gerufen wurde2. Schenkl, von 1863 bis 1875 Inhaber der Lehrkanzel für Griechisch und großer Ver- fechter einer umfassenden Konzeption der Altertumswissenschaften, sah in den Objekten Hilfsmit- tel bei der Ausbildung der Studierenden der Klassischen Philologie. In diesem Zusammenhang sei ein Curiosum angemerkt: Nicht unwillkommen dürfte dem Ministerium die Ankündigung gewesen sein, dass sich das Kabinett ausschließlich durch die Abhaltung populärwissenschaftlicher Vorträge sowie durch Spenden und Schenkungen selbst zu erhalten gedachte. Wenn man den Zustand der Va- sensammlung heute betrachtet, so gewinnt man den Eindruck, das Ministerium habe sich an diesen angenehmen Zustand gewöhnt, der jedoch den heutigen Ansprüchen sowohl von ästhetischer als auch von konservatorischer Seite nicht mehr gerecht werden kann. So wurden für die Vasen zwar am Ende des letzten Jahrtausends moderne Vitrinen angeschafft, doch konnten einige neuzeitliche Übermalungen aus Kostengründen nicht mehr rechtzeitig entfernt werden (zu den vorgenommenen Restaurierungen vgl. unten). Die Stücke sind mit Beschreibung und teilweise mit Foto bzw. Zeichnung in einem älteren In- ventarbuch mit dem Registerbuchstaben G (für Originalsammlung) erfasst. Dieses ältere von zwei heute noch vorhandenen Inventarbüchern wurde von Franz Gosch unter Leitung des Institutsvor- standes Rudolf Heberdey (1911–1933) im Wintersemester 1911/12 begonnen. Gosch führte die Inventarisierung bis zu seiner Anstellung an der Universitätsbibliothek im Jahre 1914 und schloss seine Beschreibung der Objekte mit Nummer G 109. Bis zum Jahr 1944/45 wurde das Inventarbuch bis G 232 weiter fortgeführt. Nach dem 2. Weltkrieg konnten nur wenige Stücke noch angefügt werden, sodass das Inventar nunmehr mit G 255 schließt. Die Inventarisierung der Scherbensamm- lung wird in einer eigenen Liste fortgeführt. Das jüngere Inventarbuch wurde von Arnold Schober (1936–1945), dem Nachfolger Heberdeys auf dem Lehrstuhl für Klassische Archäologie, begonnen und stellt mehr oder weniger ein Duplikat dar. Neben dem älteren Inventarbuch haben sich jedoch sämtliche Erwerbungslisten der ersten Inventarisierung erhalten, die seit der Gründung des Kabi- netts bis 1875 von Schenkl geführt wurden. Zusätzlich erschließt sich aus dem älteren, 1911/12 begonnenen Inventarbuch eine weitere Inventarisierung durch Friedrich Pichler im Jahre 1875/76 (dieses Inventar fehlt spurlos). Die archivalischen Quellen geben einen nahezu lückenlosen Einblick zu den frühen Erwerbungen, aber auch zu Verlusten (siehe Verzeichnis am Ende dieses Bandes). So hat sich die allererste Erwerbung des Grazer archäologischen Kabinetts aus dem Jahr 1866 erhal- ten: die Schulterlekythos G 1, alte Inv.-Nr. II 1 (Schenkl) bzw. III 1 (Pichler), die der steiermärkische Landesarchivar Josef von Zahn dem Kabinett schenkte. Der Band beginnt mit sechs zyprischen Ganzgefäßen, die von Gabriele Koiner bearbeitet wurden. Die Stücke stammen aus der frühen bis späten Bronzezeit und repräsentieren einen breiten Quer- schnitt der bronzezeitlichen Keramikproduktion Zyperns. Die früh- bis mittelzyprische Red Po- lished Ware ist vertreten durch die Schalen G 212, einem aus dem Norden der Insel stammenden Exemplar, sowie G 2046 aus dem Süden Zyperns. Die Kugelschale G 211, die man wahrscheinlich auch der Red Polished Ware zuordnen kann, ist heute verschollen. Die Henkeltasse G 210 und die Schnabeltasse G 208 sind charakteristische Repräsentanten der mittel- bis spätzyprischen White Painted Ware und finden gute Vergleiche im Norden Zyperns. G 208 wurde gemeinsam mit einer ähnlichen Kanne im Universalmuseum Joanneum (Archäologiemuseum 4189) von Paul Åström in den Band der Swedish Cyprus Expedition über die späte Bronzezeit auf Zypern aufgenommen (SCE IV IC). Der Krug der White Slip Ware G 209 und das fragmentierte Zwillingsgefäß der Base-ring Ware G 57 sind typische Vertreter der spätbronzezeitlichen Waren, die von Zypern in die östliche Ägäis, die Levante und nach Ägypten exportiert wurden. 1 Lehner – Lorenz – Schwarz, Vasen. In diesem Katalog wurden G 42 und G 42 a getrennt behandelt. 2 Zur wechselvollen Geschichte der Originalsammlung des Instituts für Archäologie an der Karl-Franzens-Universi- tät Graz vgl. Lehner, Originalsammlung. 142095_01_Kern.indd 7 11.09.14 14:35 8 Vorwort Die Erwerbungsgeschichte und die Herkunft der meisten Gefäße sind derzeit nicht zu klären. Während das Kompositgefäß der Base-Ring Ware G 57 bereits im 19. Jahrhundert in die Sammlung gekommen war, entstammen die Gefäße G 208–209, G 210, G 212 und das verschollene Gefäß G 211 wahrscheinlich alle einem Ankauf aus dem Jahre 1940. Nur von einer erst 2010 erfolgten Schenkung, der Schale G 2046, ist zumindest bekannt, dass sie in den 1970er-Jahren

Tel: 0207 679 1525 Office hours: Tuesday, Wednesday 11am-12pm 1. Overview of course: This module is designed to develop in students the skills of careful looking, and detailed visual analysis, grounded in a strong awareness of the major theoretical issues, which are central to research in classical art history. It will take the form of a series of seminars addressing key themes in the historiography of classical art through detailed consideration of specific works of art in the British Museum and other London museums, where most classes will be held. Alongside traditional concerns with issues of style and iconography, a particular emphasis will be laid on questions of ‘facture’, ‘materiality’ and ‘agency’ which have been at the centre of recent discussions in archaeology, the anthropology of art and art history. Particular themes and classes may vary from year to year to reflect students’ own research interests, new publications and special exhibitions. Module schedule: Classes will be held in the British Museum, 2-4pm every Tuesday. We will meet in the Great Court at the Entrance to the Egyptian Galleries. 3/10/17: 1.

  • Hum 110: Geometric & Proto-Corinthian Art (8Th Century)
    Hum 110: Geometric & Proto-Corinthian Art (8th Century) Critics have argued that poetic style is related to both the poems content and the poet's cultural agenda. The purpose of this handout is to get you to think about how the style of attic art and literature reflect the same anxieties or concerns. A Breakdown of Early Greek Culture (see outline in Murray p. 310-311): 1. Geometric Age 875-750 Geometric Pottery 700+ Homer 2. Orientalizing Period 725-700 Early Proto-Corinthian Pottery 700+ Hesiod 3. Archaic Age 610-525 Attic Black Figure Pottery 530 Attic Red Figure Pottery Begins Lyric Poets Review from Lecture & Readings: What is Hesiod's political theory (according to the lecturers and Murray)? How does his style support or relate to his political theory? What was the influence of the near east on the style and content of Hesiod's Theogony? A Summary of Attic Geometric Style from Murray (chapter 6): Murray asserts that just as near east culture influenced the structure and content of Hesiod's Theogony, so did it influence the style of archaic art. First, how does Geometric Art style related to the style and values of Homer and Hesiod's day? Second, presumably, if a culture (e.g. Early Greece) adopts the cultural ways of another culture (e.g. the Phoenicians) and they are not coerced into doing so (e.g. due to colonization), they are doing it because something about the other culture appeals to them. Can you make sense of why the following aspects of near eastern style might have appealed to the Greeks and been adopted into Greek pottery? Geometric Style Stylistic Parallels in the Proto Corinthian Style Iliad, Theogony, and (Oriental Influence) Works and Days regular geometric patterns freedom of line chequer boards, swastikas, curved patterns, spirals, curls, zigzags, meanders volutes, rosettes, palmettes, lotus flowers stylized animals (usually exotic animals, emphasis on repeated into a pattern) naturalism ritualized scenes emphasis on mythology and epic stories.

  • Death, Mourning and the Expression of Sorrow on White-Ground Lêkythoi
    Portraits of Grief: Death, Mourning and the Expression of Sorrow on White-Ground Lêkythoi Molly Evangeline Allen Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2017 © 2017 Molly Evangeline Allen All rights reserved ABSTRACT Portraits of Grief: Death, Mourning and the Expression of Sorrow on White-Ground Lêkythoi Molly Evangeline Allen In Athens in the early 5th century BCE, a new genre of funerary vase, the white-ground lêkythos, appeared and quickly grew to be the most popular grave gift for nearly a century. These particular vases, along with their relatively delicate style of painting, ushered in a new funerary scene par excellence, which highlighted the sorrow of the living and the merits of the deceased by focusing on personal moments of grief in the presence of a grave. Earlier Attic funerary imagery tended to focus on crowded prothesis scenes where mourners announced their grief and honored the dead through exaggerated, violent and frenzied gestures. The scenes on white-ground lêkythoi accomplished the same ends through new means, namely by focusing on individual mourners and the emotional ways that mourners privately nourished the deceased and their memory. Such scenes combine ritual activity (i.e. dedicating gifts, decorating the grave, pouring libations) with emotional expressions of sadness, which make them more vivid and relatable. The nuances in the characteristics of the mourners indicate a new interest in adding an individual touch to the expression, which might “speak” to a particular moment or variety of sadness that might relate to a potential consumer.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ABSTRACT The thesis is an attempt to view the iconography of A ttic vase-painting of the Late Geometric II period, in re­ latio n to the previous Late Geometric I period as well as the ensuing Early P rotoattic and to establish and in te rp re t the origin and meaning of the various iconographie themes. The main body of the work begins with a detailed look at those iconographie representations which are found in both Late Geometric I and Late Geometric II . The purely dec­ orative animal representations such as goats, deer and horses are studied f i r s t , while the more complex narrative scenes such as prothesis and chariot representations follow. Chapter II deals only with the Late Geometric II inno­ vations, for example riders, man and lions, as well as animals, grazing horses, bulls,dogs and fantastic animals such as cen­ taurs, sphinxes and winged goats.
