In this lucid and intelligent study, Barringer skillfully analyzes the imagery of Greek hunting and pursues its connections with warfare, sex, and death. A fine example of the art historian's craft.

From the Publisher
The Hunt in Ancient Greece is a mature, well-argued, and well-documented study of the theme of the hunt in archaic and classical Greece, making excellent use of both literary and pictorial sources. The materials collected are exhaustive, and Barringer describes and interprets them with exemplary clarity and caution. This is an excellent contribution: learned, intelligent, informative.—David Konstan, Brown University
