This book explores the ways in which statues have been experienced
in public in different cultures and the role that has been played
by statues in defining publicness itself. The meaning of public
statues is examined through discussion of their appearance and
their spatial context and of written discourses having to do with
how they were experienced. Bringing together experts working on
statues in different cultures, the book sheds light on similarities
and differences in the role that public statues had in different
times and places throughout history. The book will also provide
insight into the diverse methods and approaches that scholars
working on these different periods use to investigate statues. The
book will appeal to historians, art historians and archaeologists
of all periods who have an interest in the display of sculpture,
the reception of public art or the significance of public
monuments.
