This book celebrates the career of Brian Sparkes, whose work in
Classical archaeology has covered many diverse areas such as art,
pottery, and theatre. Such interdisciplinary work is at the core of
this book, which seeks to explore the relationship between
different kinds of text and material culture and the ways in which
these can be interpreted. Chapters include studies on the
relationship between vase painting and sculpture (Karim Arafat) ,
images on wedding bowls (Sue Blundell) , and the role of pottery
workshops in the choice of iconography (Robin Osborne) . There is
also, unusually for this kind of publication, a paper by Brian
Sparkes himself, focusing on how artists and craftsmen in ancient
Greece conceived the appearances of men and women and of the move
from idealised naturalism to realistic naturalism.
