8940 has watched this in 2 years. Imagine a professor teaching 100 Student a year for 40 years that would make it around 4000 in a lifetime, you have already reached twice that. Congratulation and thank you for this wonderful lecture from Denmark.
just wanted to let you know that this video isn't a part of the class playlist and a few people might have missed it because of that :) great class, i learned a lot!
So I found you a while ago through a tik tok. And I’ve reacently gotten a project in art to do a presentation on classical Greece. I personally couldn’t find much info, and then I remembered you. So I just wanted to say thank you
That is so interesting about there being more than 3 orders. I did learn in my high school art history class that there were only 3 but I always felt like I saw some buildings that didn’t fit neatly into any of those 3 orders. Now I know why!
I'd argue that although in hindsight for us knowing what the Greeks achieved in the Classical period, they're already out shining the rest of the world's statue carving by the Archaic period. Even matching Egypt of the same period. Btw, love the presentations
Why is the volcanic eruption at Thesa rarely mentioned when discussing the bronze age collapse? The dark age that befell the region happened subsequently some decades or a century after the super eruption. We all know that volcanoes have been known to impact agriculture and human civilization.
Considering the griffin was a symbol used in both Minoan and Mycenaean cultures, its reintroduction during orientalization makes me wonder if they found their ancestors resettled in the east after the bronze age collapse migration period. It's a shame the Assyrians wiped out all those cultures, we have so much to learn.
Also strong Egyptian artistic influences. Strong cultural interactions within Eastern Mediterranian between Egypt (Mostly since Saite [26th dynasty]) and Greece (archaic period).
Something similar has happened with the way bronze is depicted in China. In the Bronze Age, bronze was always described as gold or at least yellowish; the word “gold” itself had meant bronze in the Bronze Age. Yet into the medieval era, bronze objects are considered antiques, and antiques are distinguished because they have verdigris. Today, almost all film depicts bronzes as black, greenish things when at the time they were made, they were actually yellowish.
1:03:38 "...conflated narrative is a lot more common than you think..." "Movie posters!" "...where you take different parts of the story and you put them all together in one big grab bag..." "MOVIE POSTERS!!!" "...ever see a movie poster?" "WOOHOO!!!" I feel smart :-)
I remember seeing the temple of Ge, the Earth Mother, under the temple of Apollo. Is there any relationship between the Pythian Oracle and the Great Goddess?

Harran, Asur, Niniveh, Thessaly and Macedonia are wrongly situated on the second and fourth maps.
I reckon that the guy laying down next to Athena is Achilles, having been shot in the "" Tendon
At 1:00:24 it kind of looks like they're using Legos to build that temple.
