The Etruscans Hardcover Book by Mario Torelli 1st Ed. 2001 Rizzoli
Located in North Hollywood, CA
The Etruscans Hardcover First Edition Oversized Collectible Book.May 4, 2001 by Mario Torelli (Author).The Etruscans have long been a rich source of research and intellectual inquiry as the most significant ethnic group who resided in ancient Etruria, current-day Tuscany and Umbria in Italy. A well-defined polity, the Etruscans were an advanced people whose presence on the Italian peninsula from the 8th to 4th century B.C. had an enormous impact on Roman culture, whose rise of power saw the collapse of Etruscan civilization. * Publisher ‏ : ‎ Rizzoli; First Edition (May 4, 2001) * Language ‏ : ‎ English * Hardcover ‏ : ‎ 672 pages * Dimensions ‏ : ‎9 x 2 x 12.25 inches This book is extensive in its scope; it traces the rise of the Etruscans at the end of the Bronze Age; examines the economic structure of the society; explores the emergence of a powerful aristocracy in the period from 750-650 B.C.; and considers the religious and cultural life of the group. This knowledge has largely been gleaned from a wealth of monuments and material culture which the Etruscans left behind including architecture (the various forms of which indicate familial structure and socio-economic standing, not to mention the larger social structure of Etruscan society) and applied arts, such as bronze objects for both ceremonial use and everyday life, which were produced by an artisan class for a wealthy and demanding aristocracy.Etruscan contributions to the history of art are also of immense importance and are explored in depth in this volume. Etruscan wall...
