Die Betrachtung von Ruinen und das Begehen archäologischer Orte haben seit der Frührenaissance die Entstehung von literarischen und künstlerischen Darstellungen bewirkt und zu historischen Werken, ästhetisch-philosophischen Meditationen inspiriert. Ruinen berichten von verfallener Herrschaft und Repräsentation, sie sind Allegorien des modernen Denkens geworden. Ihre Verfallenheit öffnet das Auge für die Tiefenstrukturen der Geschichte. Die Autoren dieses Bandes untersuchen Texte und Bilder aus Kunst, Literatur und Wissenschaft vom 19. bis zum 20. Jahrhundert, die im Dialog mit der klassischen Archäologie dem Fortwirken der Antike nachgehen.

This influential work of 1818 by dilettante and critic Richard Payne Knight (1751-1824) has stood the test of time. The study investigates the sexual symbolism of the art of different religions, providing a key to the mythology of the ancients and fostering a clear understanding of the canons and principles of art. An eminent art historian, collector and textual critic, Knight led the way in convincing British taste that Roman art was inferior to Greek, arguing that Greek art was the more authentic and original. Here, he calls for more correct versions of Homer, Plato and other Hellenic writers, to obtain accurate perceptions of Grecian ideas. Demonstrating his in-depth knowledge of classical architecture and literature, and drawing upon his considerable resources as a collector, Knight analyses the genetic character of symbols, and the patterns of their occurrence in different cultures.
