In Down from Olympus, Suzanne Marchand attempts to come to grips with German Graecophilia, not as a private passion but as an institutionally generated and preserved cultural trope. The book argues that nineteenth-century philhellenes inherited both an elitist, normative aesthetics and an ascetic, scholarly ethos from their Romantic predecessors; German "neohumanists" promised to reconcile these intellectual commitments, and by so doing, to revitalize education and the arts. Focusing on the history of classical archaeology, Marchand shows how the injunction to imitate Greek art was made the basis for new, state-funded cultural institutions. Tracing interactions between scholars and policymakers that made possible grand-scale cultural feats like the acquisition of the Pergamum Altar, she underscores both the gains in specialized knowledge and the failures in social responsibility that were the distinctive products of German neohumanism.This book discusses intellectual and institutional aspects of archaeology and philhellenism, giving extensive treatment to the history of prehistorical archaeology and German "orientalism." Marchand traces the history of the study, excavation, and exhibition of Greek art as a means to confront the social, cultural, and political consequences of the specialization of scholarship in the last two centuries. 410 0$aACLS Fellows? publications. 410 0$aACLS Humanities E-Book. 606 $aNeoclassicism (Art)$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01035771 606 $aIntellectual life$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00975769 606 $aEnlightenment$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00912527 606 $aCivilization, Classical$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00862996 606 $aArt, Greek$xInfluence$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00816349 606 $aArchaeology$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00812938 606 $aCivilisation ancienne 606 $aNeoclassicisme (Art) 606 $aSiecle des lumieres 606 $aArcheologie 606 $aCivilization, Classical 606 $aNeoclassicism (Art)$zGermany 606 $aArt, Greek$xInfluence 606 $aEnlightenment$zGermany 606 $aArchaeology$zGermany$xHistory 607 $aGermany$2fast 607 $aAllemagne$xVie intellectuelle$y20e siecle 607 $aAllemagne$xVie intellectuelle$y19e siecle 607 $aAllemagne$xVie intellectuelle$y18e siecle 607 $aGermany$xIntellectual life$y20th century 607 $aGermany$xIntellectual life$y19th century 607 $aGermany$xIntellectual life$y18th century 608 $aLivres numeriques. 608 $aHistory. 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aAlthoff, Friedrich. 610 $aAristotle. 610 $aBersu, Gerhard. 610 $aBildung. 610 $aBrunn, Heinrich. 610 $aCatholicism. 610 $aDelbriick, Richard. 610 $aDjemal Pasha. 610 $aDorpfeld, Wilhelm. 610 $aEgyptology. 610 $aFreytag, Hermann. 610 $aGeorge, Stefan. 610 $aGerhard, Eduard. 610 $aGymnasium. 610 $aHamdi Edhem. 610 $aHerder, J.
