New Publication - A Culture of Translation: British and Irish Scholarship in the Gennadius Library 1740-1840

This publication is a study of British and Irish scholarship in the collection of the Gennadius Library, Athens. The volume arises out of two seperate symposia that took place organised by the School of Art History and Cultural Policy, UCD. The first symposium was in Athens in the Irish Institute of Hellenic Studies Athens in June 2010 and the Gennadius Library of the Amerian School of Classical Studies, Athens. The symposium was concluded with an exhibition of these precious holdings in the Gennadius library, Athens. The second symposium was held in the Humanities Institute, UCD in June 2011.  Various themes explored are in this book which relate to material culture and art and architecture as encountered, recorded and published by British and Irish scholars during 1740-1840 as a result of travels in Greece, Asia Minor and the Levant. 

 

The Fusion of Neo-Classical Principles, (Wordwell)

Edited by Lynda Mulvin this book of essays makes a wide-ranging and stimulating contribution to current scholarly debates about the nature of Neo-Classicism, that critical cultural development that signals the arrival both of recognisable modernity and of internationalism in the western tradition.  Written by some of the leading experts on the subject this book considers the manner in which Neo-Classical principles and knowledge were translated into practice and adopted by the artists, designers, builders and decorative artists of the Neo-Classical period.  This publication is the result of a conference held in May 2009, organised by the School of Art History & Cultural Policy in association with the Irish Architectural Archive and National Gallery of Ireland.
