Brown University symposium
BIG: Monumentality and Meaning in the Ancient World--A Cross-
Disciplinary Symposium
Not everything big is a monument, and not all monuments are big. This
cross-disciplinary symposium seeks to address monumentality and
meaning in the ancient world, with notable scholars in the fields of
anthropology, archaeology, classics, and art history. We hope to
explore the balance between cross-cultural monumentality and
historically particular memory, and the relation between size and
commemoration in past monumental thinking. See the program here: http://proteus.brown.edu/big2011/8475

"Statue of Meleager"
Eternally youthful yet sufficiently worn to evoke an ancient past,
this fragmentary statue of a hero, probably Meleager, has been a
powerful presence in Harvard’s museum galleries ever since Edith
Forbes lent it to the Fogg in 1899. This lecture probes below the
beautiful marble surface of the sculpture to explore the Greek
fascination with the male body, the phenomenon of famous but elusive
ancient sculptors, the tastes of Roman collectors, and some aspects of
classical antiquity’s rich afterlife. This lecture is part of a
series, "In-Sight Evenings: Looking Deeper and Differently," featuring
talks by curators, after-hours viewing of the galleries, live music,
conversation, and refreshments. For more information on ticket prices

BIG: Monumentality and Meaning in the Ancient World--A Cross-

Not everything big is a monument, and not all monuments are big. This
cross-disciplinary symposium seeks to address monumentality and
meaning in the ancient world, with notable scholars in the fields of
anthropology, archaeology, classics, and art history. We hope to
explore the balance between cross-cultural monumentality and
historically particular memory, and the relation between size and
commemoration in past monumental thinking. See the program here: http://proteus.brown.edu/big2011/8475
