Kurzbeschreibung
This comprehensive survey of Etruscan civilization, from its origin in the Villanovan Iron Age in the ninth century B.C. to its absorption by Rome in the first century B.C., combines well-known aspects of the Etruscan world with new discoveries and fresh insights into the role of women in Etruscan society. In addition, the Etruscans are contrasted to the Greeks, whom they often emulated, and to the Romans, who at once admired and disdained them. The result is a compelling and complete picture of a people and a culture.
This in-depth examination of Etruria examines how differing access to mineral wealth, trade routes, and agricultural land led to distinct regional variations. Heavily illustrated with ancient Etruscan art and cultural objects, the text is organized both chronologically and thematically, interweaving archaeological evidence, analysis of social structure, descriptions of trade and burial customs, and an examination of pottery and works of art.

Insightful examination of Etruscan pottery, art, & culture
23. Januar 2001
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
In Etruscan Civilization: A Cultural History, noted educator and Etruscan scholar Sybille Haynes treats the reader to a comprehensive and superbly presented survey of Etruscan civilization from its origin in the Villanovan Iron Age (9th Century B.C.E.) to its absorption by Rome (1st Century B.C.E.). The thoroughly "reader friendly" text combines well-known aspects of the Etruscan world with new archaeological discoveries and insights into the role of women in Etruscan society. Etruscans are also contrasted to the Greeks (whom they often emulated) and to the Romans (who both admired and disdained them). Etruscan Civilization is a complete and compelling portrait of both a long-ago people and their antiquarian culture. Readers will enjoy Haynes' in-depth examination of how Etruscans access to mineral wealth, trade routes, and agricultural land were effected by distinct regional variations. The informative, insightful text is enhanced with profuse illustrations of ancient Etruscan art and cultural objects. Organized chronologically and thematically, interweaving archaeological evidence, a splendidly presented analysis of social structures, detailed descriptions of trade and burial customs, and an insightful examination of Etruscan pottery and art, Etruscan Civilization is a "must" for personal, professional, and academic library collections and Etruscan studies reading lists.

A splendid history
25. Juni 2006
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This is a splendid review of nine centuries of Etruscan cultural, economic, social and artistic history. Designed for the educated nonspecialist, it has beautiful photos in both black/white and color of art works held in museums throughout the world: the most wide-ranging collection I have ever seen in one volume. The author, an expert in her field, writes clearly and well about the latest archaelogical evidence (up to the book's publication in 2000), and its relevance to our understanding of Etruscan life. Well recommended to anyone with an interest in this field.
