Excerpts

Students ought to enjoy their first course in art history. Only if they do will they want to experience and appreciate the visual arts--for the rest of their lives--as offering connections to the most tangible creations of the human imagination. To this end, we continue to seek ways to make each edition of Art History a more sensitive, engaging, supportive, and accessible learning resource. The characteristics that elicited such a warm welcome when Art Historywas first published in 1998 remain its hallmarks today in the revised second edition. HALLMARKS OF ART HISTORY Art Historyis contextual in its approach and object-based in its execution.Throughout the text we treat the visual arts, not in isolation, but within the essential contexts of history, geography, politics, religion, and other humanistic studies, and we carefully define the parameters--social, religious, political, and cultural--that either have constrained or have liberated individual artists. A feature called The Object Speaksexplores the role of a work of art within its context by focusing in depth on some of the many things a work of art may have to say. At the same time that we stay grounded in the works of art that make art history distinctive among other humanistic disciplines, we emphasize the significance of the work of art. Art Historyreflects the excitement and pleasures gained by studying art.In writing about art's history, we try to express our affection for the subject. Each chapter opens with a scene-setting vignettethat concentrates on a work of art from that chapter. Set-off text boxes,many illustrated, present interesting, thought-provoking material. A number of them follow the theme of women in the arts--as artists and as patrons. Others give insights into discoveries and controversies. The discipline of art history is many dimensional in its possibilities, and Art Historyinvites a positive sampling of these possibilities. Art Historyis comprehensive.We reach beyond the Western tradition to examine the arts of other regions and cultures, from their beginnings to the twenty-first century. We cover not only the world's most significant paintings and works of sculpture and architecture but also drawings and prints; photographs; works in metal, ceramic, and glass; textiles; jewelry; furniture and aspects of interior design (things that were once considered only utilitarian); such temporal arts as happenings and performance art; and new mediums such as video art, installation art, and digital art. Acknowledging that the majority of survey courses concentrate on the Western tradition, we have organized the chapters on non-Western arts and cultures so that art can be studied from a global perspective within an integrated sequence of Western and non-Western art. just as smoothly, non-Western material can be skipped over without losing the thread of the western narrative. Art Historyoffers a pedagogical advantage.When first published, Art Historywas instantly embraced for its groundbreaking use of drawings and diagrams to aid readers in mastering the terminology of art history. The Elements of Architectureand Technique boxesvisually explain how buildings are constructed and how artists use materials to do everything from creating cave paintings to decorating armor to making photographs. Mapsand timelinesguide the reader visually through the narrative. Every chapter has at least one map and a timeline, and the maps identify every site mentioned in the text. Terms specific to art history are printed in boldface type, which indicates their inclusion in the 900 word Glossary.The Bibliography,compiled for the second edition by distinguished art librarian, Susan Craig, h
