"Late Classical and Early Hellenistic Corinth, 338-196 B.C. challenges the perception that the Macedonians' advent and continued presence in Corinth amounted to a loss of significance and autonomy. Immediately after Chaironeia, Philip II and his son Alexander III established close relations with Corinth and certain leading citizens on the basis of goodwill (eunoia). Mutual benefits and respect characterized their discourse throughout the remainder of the early Hellenistic period; this was neither a period of domination or decline, nor one in which the Macedonians deprived Corinthians of their autonomy. Instead, Corinth flourished while the Macedonians possessed the city. It was the site of a vast building program, much of which must be construed as the direct result of Macedonian patronage, evidence suggests strongly that those Corinthians who supported the Macedonians enjoyed great prosperity under them. Corinth's strategic location made it an integral part of the Macedonians' strategy to establish and maintain hegemony over the mainland Greek peninsula after Philip II's victory at Chaironeia. The Macedonian dynasts and kings who later possessed Corinth also valued its strategic position, and they regarded it as an essential component in their efforts to claim legitimacy due to its association with the Argead kings, Philip II and Alexander III the Great, and the League of Corinth they established. This study explicates the nature of the relationship between Corinthians and Macedonians that developed in the aftermath of Chaironeia, through the defeat at the battle of Kynoskephalai and the declaration of Greek Freedom at Isthmia in 196 B.C. Late Classical and Early Hellenistic Corinth is not simply the history of a single polis; it draws upon the extant literary, epigraphic, prosopographic, topographic, numismatic, architectural, and archaeological evidence to place Corinth within broader Hellenistic world. This volume, the full first treatment of the city in this period, contributes significantly to the growing body of scholarly literature focusing on the Hellenistic world and is a crucial resource for specialists in late Classical and early Hellenistic history"--

In 1900-1902 American archeologists found sculptural debris and richly decorated structural elements in the agora of Corinth, from which Richard Stillwell reconstructed on paper a two-storied facade in 1941. This volume presents a comprehensive reevaluation and dating of a significant example of imperial architecture. Thanks to stylistic and iconographic criteria and comparison, the sculptures and structural elements of the marble facade can (in distinction to previous interpretation) be recognized as homogeneous and dating to the Neronian period, whereas they were previously thought to be late 1st century B.C.E. to early 3rd century C.E. In den Jahren 1900-1902 fanden amerikanische Archäologen an der Agora von Korinth Skulpturentrümmer und reichgeschmückte Bauglieder, aus denen Richard Stillwell 1941 eine zweigeschossige Prunkfassade auf dem Papier rekonstruierte. Der Band präsentiert nun eine umfassende Neubewertung und -datierung eines wichtigen Beispiels kaiserzeitlicher Architektur. Die Skulpturen und Bauglieder der Marmorfassade können dank zahlreicher stilistischer und ikonographischer Kriterien und Vergleiche entgegen der bisherigen Auffassung als einheitlich erkannt und in neronische Zeit datiert werden. Bislang schwankte die zeitliche Festlegung zwischen dem späten 1. Jahrhundert v. Chr. und dem frühen 3. Jahrhundert n. Chr.
