Works. Vol. 14: The Art of Antiquity
Jacob Burckhardt
‘For passionate readers, every encounter with Burckhardt is a joy.’ - Jürgen Busche, Süddeutsche Zeitung
In his famous ‘Griechische Culturgeschichte’, Jacob Burckhardt devoted little space to ancient art, and in his ‘Cicerone’ it is just one element among many. This book, therefore, fills an important gap. In it, Burckhardt’s notes for his lectures on the ‘art of antiquity’ – written over the course of several decades – are published for the first time. It gives us access to a previously undocumented area of Burckhardt’s work and thought. This edition is edited by the Jacob Burckhardt Stiftung in Basel and published jointly by C.H.Beck, Munich, and Schwabe, Basel. Distribution is via C.H.Beck.
