Visual culture was an essential part of ancient social, religious,
and political life. Appearance and experience of beings and things
was of paramount importance. In Visual Power in Ancient Greece and
Rome, Tonio Hoelscher explores the fundamental phenomena of Greek
and Roman visual culture and their enormous impact on the ancient
world, considering memory over time, personal appearance,
conceptualization and representation of reality, and significant
decoration as fundamental categories of art as well as of social
practice. With an emphasis on public spaces such as sanctuaries,
agora and forum, Hoelscher investigates the ways in which these
spaces were used, viewed, and experienced in religious rituals,
political manifestations, and social interaction.
