excellent discussion,
By A Customer
This review is from: Neoclassicism A&I (Art and Ideas) (Paperback)
An excellent comprehensive and jargon free discussion which is very well illustrated. Probably the best introduction to Neoclassicism in the Arts.

The Allure of the Ancients, or Why We Study the Classics,
By A Customer
This review is from: Neoclassicism A&I (Art and Ideas) (Paperback)
Every time I come to get bummed out about the classics and the continuing attempt by college profs to remove it as far from everyday life as possible, I read this book, and then I'm as giddy as a school boy again, ready to tackle with enthusiasm Homer, Horace, and Lucan. This is a must for anyone, including those whose classical education consisted of only a mandatory perusal of The Odyssey in the 6th grade.
