Review


"Stewart's study represents a novel continuation of the seminal work of Pual Zanker and other German scholars on the relationship between Roman art and significant social changeYet more than earlier works, Statues in Roman Society is necessarily and refreshingly interdisciplinary, drawing on fields beyond the traditional purview of the art historian, from literary analysis and philosophy to anthropology and social psychologyStewart has undoubtedly created an impetus for scholars of Roman art and society to consider Rome's 'other population' in entirely new ways."--Genevieve S. Gessert, CAA Reviews


"The range of evidence that he considers is commensurate with the scope of the subject. His analysis is informed by literary sources, inscriptions, statues themselves, mural paintings, coins and lamps. Stewart's command of these various bodies of evidence is impressive, as is his ability to squeeze interesting observations from them...its implicit presuppositions produce a number of genuinely enlightening observations."--NECJ


"[A] thoughtful and wide-ranging book."--Times Literary Supplement
