Bradley Mark
Colour and Meaning in Ancient Rome
8vo, hardcover in dj, 8.78 by .79 inches. (282 pages) Explores the definition and function of colour in Rome during the early Empire using a wide variety of contemporary sources.Explores how ancient Romans categorised, organised and described colours, and outlines the principal differences and similarities between ancient and modern concepts of colour. By drawing together evidence from contemporary philosophers, elegists, epic writers, historians and satirists, Bradley explores the definition and function of colour in Rome during the early Empire.Explores how ancient Romans categorised, organised and described colours, and outlines the principal differences and similarities between ancient and modern concepts of colour. By drawing together evidence from contemporary philosophers, elegists, epic writers, historians and satirists, Bradley explores the definition and function of colour in Rome during the early Empire.The study of colour has become familiar territory in recent anthropology, linguistics, art history and archaeology. Classicists, however, have traditionally subordinated the study of colour to form. By drawing together evidence from contemporary philosophers, elegists, epic writers, historians and satirists, Mark Bradley reinstates colour as an essential informative unit for the classification and evaluation of the Roman world. He also demonstrates that the questions of what colour was and how it functioned - as well as how it could be misused and misunderstood - were topics of intellectual debate in early imperial Rome. Suggesting strategies for interpreting Roman expressions of colour in Latin texts, Dr Bradley offers new approaches to understanding the relationship between perception and knowledge in Roman elite thought. In doing so, he highlights the fundamental role that colour performed in the realms of communication and information, and its intellectual contribution to contemporary discussions of society, politics and morality.Introduction, 1. The rainbow, 2. Lucretius and the philosophy of color, 3. Pliny the Elder and the unnatural history of color, 4. Color and rhetoric, 5. The natural body, 6. The unnatural body, 7. Purple, Conclusion: colours triumphant, Envoi: Aulus Gellius, Attic Nights 2.26. BiographicalNote: Mark Bradley is Lecturer in Ancient History at the University of Nottingham. He is the author of a number of articles in the field of Roman visual culture, and has also worked on aspects of ancient approaches to pollution and cleanliness, as well as the reception of classical antiquity during the British Empire.

Rome, Pollution and Propriety. Dirt, Disease and Hygiene in the Eternal City from Antiquity to Modernity.
8vo, br. ed. 1st paperback ed. XX,320p. ills.(B&W photographs and line drawings). Paperback. 'This volume aims ambitiously 'to identify the defining characteristics, functions and discourses of pollution in Rome' (XVIII) during antiquity and from the Renaissance to the twentieth century. It forms the proceedings of a conference held in 2007 at the British School at Rome, which brought together scholars with a wide range of specialisms all linked by an interest in the concept of pollution and its discourse through the lens of a singel city: Rome. Theories from Mary Douglas's 'Purity and Danger' (1966) are prominent in the majority of the papers in this volume, with a particular focus on her much-quoted statement that 'dirt is matter out of place' (.). Another theme linking this diverse collection of papers is the idea of pollution and purity as political weapons, especially wielded by religious authorities (3). Furthermore, the majority of the papers consider how pollution as metaphor interacts in multiple, and often conflicting, ways with pollution as a lived reality.' (.) This volume is as entertaining and thought-provoking as the conference itself and provides a novel way of thinking about the city of Rome, both past and present.' (ZENA KAMASH in The Journal of Romanan Studies, 2014, pp.252-53).
