内容简介

希腊神话是我们文化的一部分，以至于我们往往忘记了它们最初是如何进入我们的文化的。视觉资料--花瓶画、雕刻的宝石和青铜和石头雕塑--往往比文学作品中的神话更早，或者提供了另一种陌生的讲述方式。在某些情况下，视觉艺术为我们提供了的证据，因为在古希腊文学中没有关于特洛伊陷落或特修斯与弥诺陶洛斯等重要故事的现存记载。T.H.卡彭特的这本书是第一本全面、学术而又简洁的希腊艺术中出现的神话调查。该书图文并茂，是所有对古希腊艺术、戏剧、诗歌感兴趣的参考书。有了这本手册作为指导，读者将能够在古希腊和古典希腊艺术的整个范围内识别神话中的场景。

The Greek myths are so much part of our culture that we tend to forget how they entered it in the first place. Visual sources - vase paintings, engraved gems and sculpture in bronze and stone - often pre-date references to the myths in literature, or offer alternative, unfamiliar tellings. In some cases visual art provides our only evidence, as there is no surviving account in ancient Greek literature of such important stories as the Fall of Troy, or Theseus and the Minotaur. T. H. Carpenter's book is the first comprehensive, scholarly yet succinct survey of myth as it appears in Greek art. Copiously illustrated, it is an essential reference work for everybody interested in the art, drama, poetry or religion of ancient Greece. With this handbook as a guide, readers will be able to identify scenes from myth across the full breadth of archaic and classical Greek art.
