2007Marketplace Cultural property and its stewardship have long been concerns of museums, archaeologists, art historians, and nations, but recently the legal and political consequences of collecting antiquities have also attracted broad media attention. This has been the result, in part, of several high-profile trials, as well as demands by various governments for the return of antiquities to their countries of origin.These circumstances call out for public discussion that moves beyond the rather clear-cut moral response to looting, to consider the implications of buying, selling, and exhibiting antiquities. To whom should they belong? What constitutes legal ownership of antiquities? What laws govern their importation into the United States, for instance? What circumstances, if any, demand the return of those antiquities to their countries of origin? Is there a consensus among archaeologists and museum directors about these issues? These and other pertinent issues are addressed in the essays and responses collected in this volume. Delivered at a 2007 symposium by eminent museum directors and curators, legal scholars, archaeologists, and historians and practitioners of art and architecture, these papers comprise a rich and nuanced reference work. 175p. illus.

1987Re-issue of book originally published by John Murray1964. A journey around Greece reflected in the words of writers, ,journalists and poets from all places and periods."Travellers, poets, artists, even scholars, still go to Greece in search of something they feel that no land quite offers them. Partly no doubt this is a by-product of the enormous prestige the world of ancient Greece acquired subsequent to the Renaissance; partly, too, it is due to the sheer physical beauty with which Greece presents one at practically every step. For Philip Sherrard the enigma of Greece was virtually a lifelong preoccupation. In this anthology he explores its various aspects through the writings of those who over the centuries have found in Greece not simply an object of study or a romantic haven but a challenge, an incitement and a reciprocity that have stirred the wellsprings of both heart and imagination".291p. plates. bibliography. index.
