But how else can we measure monumentality? Bringing together researchers from various fields such as archaeology, museology, history, sociology, Mesoamerican studies, and art history, this book discusses terminological and methodological approaches in both theoretical contributions and various case studies. While focusing on architectural aspects, this volume also discusses the social meaning of monuments, the role of forced and free labour, as well as textual monumentality. The result is a modern interdisciplinary take on an important concept which is notoriously difficult to define. 410 0$aHistoire 606 $aMonuments$xSocial aspects$vCongresses 606 $aMonuments$xHistory$vCongresses 606 $aHistoric sites$vCongresses 608 $aConference papers and proceedings.$2fast 608 $aHistory.$2fast 610 $aMonumentality 610 $aArchitecture 610 $aEnergetics 610 $aIdentity 610 $aLabour 610 $aMonument 610 $aPerception 610 $aReception 610 $aCultural History 610 $aAncient History 610 $aHistory 615 0$aMonuments$xSocial aspects 615 0$aMonuments$xHistory 615 0$aHistoric sites 676 $a722 700 $aBuccellati$b Federico$4edt$01372281 702 $aBuccellati$b Federico 712 02$aCluster of Excellence 264 TOPOI$4fnd$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fnd 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996309071903316 996 $aSize matters$93402492 997 $aUNISA
