The Iliad in a Nutshell - Visualizing Epic on the Tabulae Iliacae (Hardcover)
Expected to ship within 12 - 17 working days

The Iliad in a Nutshell has two objectives: first, it advances a
new critical interpretation of the miniature Iliac tablets, or
Tabulae Iliacae; second, it signals their relevance within much
bigger issues facing the study of Graeco-Roman art and literature
in the twenty-first century. By re-assessing the visual and verbal
aesthetics of the miniature, Michael Squire shows how a group of
early Imperial Roman objects relate to grander discourses about
size, ecphrasis, and representation. The conclusions will be of
critical importance not only to students of Graeco-Roman literary
and visual culture, but to anyone interested in the cultural
history of scale, replication, and visual-verbal relations. The
volume is generously illustrated, in both black and white and
colour.
