In this book scholars from ancient studies as well as early modern studies, art history, literary criticism, philosophy, and the history of science, explore that interplay in several influential ancient texts and their reception in the Renaissance. The Natural History of Pliny, De Architectura of Vitruvius, De Rerum Natura of Lucretius, Automata of Hero, and Timaios of Plato among other texts reveal how fields of inquiry now considered distinct were originally understood as closely interrelated. In our choice of texts, we focus on materialistic theories of nature, knowledge, and art that remain underappreciated in ancient and early modern studies even today"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aNIKI Studies in Netherlandish-Italian Art History 606 $aMaterial culture$xHistory$zEurope$vCongresses 606 $aMaterial culture in art$vCongresses 606 $aMaterial culture in literature$vCongresses 615 0$aMaterial culture$xHistory 615 0$aMaterial culture in art 615 0$aMaterial culture in literature 676 $a306 702 $aHedreen$b Guy Michael$f1958- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910826401703321 996 $aMaterial world$92820992 997 $aUNINA
