Proceedings of the symposium with the same title.
"This volume derives from thirteen papers that were delivered ... at the National Gallery of Art ... The gathering was held in conjunction with the exhibition The Greek miracle: classical sculpture from the dawn of democracy, the fifth century B.C., conceived to raise questions about the relationship of politics and art in classical Greece. The symposium and subsequent publication expanded this topic to consider parallel issues in the Roman world."--Pref.
