Abstract

Myrina Kalaitzi dedicates this important new study of ancient Macedonian tombstones of the fifth through first centuries BC not to any named individual but to ‘the courageous reader.’ Most readers will not need courage to understand its familiar structure: a catalogue of surviving tombstones preceded by a chronological survey discussing major trends in the corpus. As Kalaitzi outlines in her Introduction, it is a structure determined less by a conceptual or theoretical model than by scholarly precedent – a structure that has been developed and deployed by scholars of ancient material culture on numerous occasions in order, ostensibly, to describe rather than interpret. The framework presumes that, when the corpus is addressed in comparative terms, visual patterns will emerge, ones that might tell us about cultural values shared between the people who produced or commissioned the individual monuments.

Myrina Kalaitzi。公元前5 - 1世纪马其顿的雕花墓碑。
Myrina Kalaitzi对公元前5世纪至公元前1世纪的古代马其顿墓碑进行了重要的新研究,并没有将其献给任何特定的个人,而是献给“勇敢的读者”。大多数读者不需要勇气就能理解它熟悉的结构:一个幸存的墓碑目录,前面是一个按时间顺序的调查,讨论语料库的主要趋势。正如Kalaitzi在她的引言中概述的那样,这种结构与其说是由概念或理论模型决定的,不如说是由学术先例决定的——这种结构已经被研究古代物质文化的学者们在许多场合发展和运用,表面上看,是为了描述而不是解释。该框架假定,当语料库以比较的方式处理时,将出现视觉模式,这些模式可能会告诉我们制作或委托单个纪念碑的人之间共享的文化价值观。
