"A very interesting volume, not only for the excellent quality of its chapters, but also because it shows promising perspectives in the cross-fertilization between anthropology and art history." (Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, March 2009) "This book represents an extended, timely and extremely valuable exploration of the applicability of the work of Alfred Gell." (The Classical Review, 2008)"Not a single paper presented here failed to provoke or delight this reviewer. This edited volume offers an excellent introduction to Gell’s ideas.... It will surely form an important place in the growing canon of Gell-inspired literature." (Journal of Hellenic Studies, February 2009)
