A useful overview of Etruscan studies and collections in Denmark.
Approaches to Ancient Etruria covers a wide range of topics within the legacy of the Etruscans, lending valuable insight into questions of social and cultural identities, as well as new interpretations and hypotheses. In fifteen articles, scholars from Italy, Germany, Sweden, Norway, and Denmark present recent work on a broad range of Etruscan issues. Contributions include a settlement study and detailed work on architectural moldings, as they provide insights into religious practices, burial customs, funerary art, portraiture, and social relations. Several articles deal with imagery in tombs, tomb paintings, and bronze reliefs, with one presenting a new hypothesis on the scenes on the Tragliatella oinochoe, another examining the "Magistratensarkophag" from Tomba dei Sarcofagi in Cerveteri, and others exploring space in tombs or inviting the reader to imagine Etruscan music. The introduction presents a useful overview of Etruscan studies and Etruscan collections in Denmark.Author Biography
