In this volume, Gabriel Zuchtriegel revisits the idea of Doric architecture as the paradigm of architectural and artistic evolutionism. Bringing together old and new archaeological data, some for the first time, he posits that Doric architecture has little to do with a wood-to-stone evolution. Rather, he argues, it originated in tandem with a disruptive shift in urbanism, land use, and colonization in Archaic Greece. Zuchtriegel presents momentous architectural change as part of a broader transformation that involved religion, politics, economics, and philosophy. As Greek elites colonized, explored, and mapped the Mediterranean, they sought a new home for the gods in the changing landscapes of the sixth-century BC Greek world. Doric architecture provided an answer to this challenge, as becomes evident from parallel developments in architecture, art, land division, urban planning, athletics, warfare, and cosmology. Building on recent developments in geography, gender, and postcolonial studies, this volume offers a radically new interpretation of architecture and society in Archaic Greece. - Häftad, Engelska, 2020

In this book, Gabriel Zuchtriegel explores and reconstructs the unwritten history of Classical Greece - the experience of nonelite colonial populations. Using postcolonial critical methods to analyze Greek settlements and their hinterlands of the fifth and fourth centuries BC, he reconstructs the social and economic structures in which exploitation, violence, and subjugation were implicit. He mines literary sources and inscriptions, as well as archaeological and data from excavations and field surveys, much of it published here for the first time, that offer new insights into the lives and status of nonelite populations in Greek colonies. Zuchtriegel demonstrates that Greece's colonial experience has far-reaching implications beyond the study of archaeology and ancient history. As reflected in foundational texts such as Plato's 'Laws' and Aristotle's 'Politics', the ideology that sustained Greek colonialism is still felt in many Western societies. - Inbunden, Engelska, 2017

Der Ausbruch des Vulkans Vesuv hat das Leben in Pompeji für immer angehalten. Doch die Ausgrabungen, die bis heute zu neuen Entdeckungen führen, fördern nur scheinbar eine ruhige Stadt am Golf von Neapel zutage. In Wirklichkeit brodelt es im Jahr 79 unter der Oberfläche gewaltig. Sklaven und Politiker, Kellnerinnen und Künstler, Gladiatoren und Straßenkinder werden zu den zentralen Figuren einer epochalen Umwälzung. Am Ende zerbricht das Römische Reich, und das Christentum wird zum neuen Bezugspunkt einer völlig veränderten Welt.Gabriel Zuchtriegel erklärt anhand alter und neuer Entdeckungen aus Pompeji, wie es zur größten spirituellen Revolution des Abendlandes kommen konnte. Er entwirft das lebendige Bild einer rohen und gewalttätigen Gesellschaft, die zugleich ihre Schönheit und Menschlichkeit offenbart – manchmal da, wo man es am wenigsten erwartet.
