Art in Athens During the Peloponnesian War Hardback - Tapa dura

'Anyone who wants to know the state of current scholarship on this topic should consult this volume.' Bryn Mawr Classical Review

'Each of these essays provides a useful, thoughtful and up-to-date analysis of different aspects of Athens during the Peloponnesian War. But it is in their interaction ... that this book is at its strongest. As a result, this book ... offers a strong insight into the multiplicity and complexity of opinion and reaction to the Peloponnesian War within Athens.' Polis: The Journal for Ancient Greek Political Thought

'Palagia's book represents some of the latest ideas in understanding art in its political and cultural context.' American Journal of Archaeology
