And, if so, how? In this book William St Clair presents a reconstructed understanding of the Parthenon from within the classical Athenian worldview. He explores its role and meaning by weaving together a range of textual and visual sources into two innovative oratorical experiments - a speech in the style of Thucydides and a first-century CE rhetorical exercise - which are used to develop a narrative analysis of the temple structure, revealing a strange story of indigeneity, origins, and empire. The Classical Parthenon offers new answers to old questions, such as the riddle of the Parthenon frieze, and provides a framing device for the wider relationship between visual artefacts, built heritage, and layers of accumulated cultural rhetoric. This groundbreaking and pertinent work will appeal across the disciplines to readers interested in the classics, art history, and the nature of history, while also speaking to a general audience that is interrogating the role of monuments in contemporary society."--$cPublisher's website. 517 $aClassical Parthenon 606 $aParthenon (Athens, Greece) in literature 607 $aAthens (Greece)$xAntiquities 615 0$aParthenon (Athens, Greece) in literature. 676 $a726.120809385 702 $aBarnes$b Lucy$c(University of Cambridge), 702 $aSaint Clair$b David Latimer 702 $aCartledge$b Paul 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910591173103321 996 $aThe classical parthenon$93249827 997 $aUNINA
