O knihe
The complex subject of production and consumption in antiquity has been
attracting growing interest in Classical Archaeology for some time. Research with an
economic perspective, such as the investigation of the dynamics of the production of
objects or ornaments in Antiquity, has opened up new insights into Greco-Roman
culture. Against this background, the present volume focuses on a particular method
of production: serial production. On the basis of close-up observations of the
finds, the authors of the volume illuminate the broad spectrum of ancient serial
production in Greece and Rome in exemplary fashion; the examples deal with a range
from (late) Classical ceramics with painted decoration to mechanically reproduced
coins and relief tableware to luxurious marble urns. The aim is first describing
individual series and defining them and subsequently using this information to
interpret the respective conditions that led to the series. This process
demonstrates that the phenomenon of serial production (and seriality more generally)
consistently transcends economic aspects and seamlessly leads over into other areas
of ancient cultural history and its research.
