This book analyzes the function of the Minoan "Palaces" in Late Bronze Age Crete, with some reference to the numerous "Villas" termed "palatial" using analyses that might be termed contextual.

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. No Jacket. First Edition. Paperback in tidy condition. Bumping to bottom corner. No markings or inscriptions. 267pp. "Minoan Architecture. A Contextual Approach" is concerned with establishing the social meaning and function of certain architectural features commonly found in Minoan monumental architecture, that is, in the palaces and palatial villas, in the Neopalatial period. In the introduction Hitchcock provides a discussion of her methods and aims as well as of the theoretical concepts underlying her study. The purpose of the first chapter is to analyse the discursive practices in Aegean archaeology and to show how these affect the interpretation of material culture. The main part of the book comprises a discussion of various architectural features. Courts and entranceways are discussed in Chapter Two, storage areas and workshop spaces in Chapter Three, and halls in Chapter Four. In a final chapter Hitchcock summarises her methods and conclusions. Nº de ref. del artículo: 25743
