Moving from art and thought in antiquity to the Italian Renaissance, she examines the understandings of ornament arising from the Platonic, Aristotelian and Sophistic traditions, and the tensions which emerged from these varied meanings. The book views the Renaissance as a decisive point in the story of ornament, when its subsequent identification with style and historicism are established. It asserts ornament as a fundamental, not an accessory element in art and presents its restoration to theoretical dignity as essential to historical scholarship and aesthetic reflection. 410 0$aBrill's studies in intellectual history ;$vVolume 245. 410 0$aBrill's studies in intellectual history.$pBrill's studies on art, art history, and intellectual history ;$vVolume 10. 606 $aDecoration and ornament$xPhilosophy 606 $aDecoration and ornament, Renaissance$zItaly 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aDecoration and ornament$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aDecoration and ornament, Renaissance 676 $a747.094509024 700 $aGuest$b Clare Lapraik$01052826 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910493692803321 996 $aThe understanding of ornament in the Italian Renaissance$92484309 997 $aUNINA
