The Acropolis through its museum

Wandering among the monuments on the Sacred Rock and the
great achievements

Authors:Panos Valavanēs (Author), Alexandra Doumas (Translator)

Summary:"The Acropolis through its Museum is not simply a guidebook to the works of art exhibited at the museum. These are the stimulus for synthesizing the history of the Sacred Rock as part of the cultural and the broader historical process of ancient Athens. The book follows the visitor's tour of the museum, so that he can read about the antiquities displayed before him. However, it is written in such a way that through independent inquiry the reader is able to approach the subjects more deeply and to understand the preconditions -- political, social, economic, ideological, artistic and technological -- that led to the creation of the unique monuments on the Acropolis.
