Zusatztext "In this volume Kinnee offers a comprehensive account of the development of the trophy in Greek and Roman culture. Combining study of the literary and archaeological evidence with insights from anthropology and the history of religions, she offers a provocative new interpretation of the Greek trophy, radically different from the icon of power it later became." - Zahra Newby, University of Warwick, UK   "Kinnee’s dissemination of a chronological approach to the trophy and valuable coverage of the development of the Greek trophy and Roman trophy tableau is a historiographical necessity... Her essential book brings new information to light on the trophy." - Bryn Mawr Classical Review Informationen zum Autor Lauren Kinnee is the Director of Art History and Visiting Assistant Professor at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, USA.
