Bøger af Lauren E. Talalay

Talalay reports on the most important collection of figurines (24 figurines and 21 fragments) in southern Greece, recovered during excavations at Franchthi Cave and at the nearby open-air settlement along the present shoreline. She also reexamines the theoretical and methodological foundations of scholarship in the field of figurine studies. Of particular concern is a critical evaluation of the uses of evidence in addressing gender issues.Lauren E.
