Der Grossteil antiker Statuen lasst sich anhand formaler Uberschneidungen typologisieren, d. h. in Schemata ordnen. Einzelne Statuenschemata wurden uber Jahrhunderte hinweg in immer neuen Versionen tradiert und in unterschiedliche materielle, raumliche und funktionale Kontexte integriert. Diese Rezeptions- und Transformationsprozesse konnen als kulturelle Aneignungen verstanden werden, die asthetisch, politisch und/oder religios motiviert waren. In aller Regel setzten sie Bildung voraus und besassen damit auch eine soziale Komponente. Oft fuhrten aber auch rein praktische Grunde wie die Verfugbarkeit einer bestimmten Formvorlage zur Wiedergabe anthropomorpher Figuren nach einem Schema. Dabei konnten die Bildwerke die einstigen Sinnzusammenhange ihrer Vorlagen bewahren, nur teilweise ubernehmen oder aber ignorieren und mit vollig neuen Bedeutungen ‘uberschreiben’. Der Band, der auf eine internationale Tagung in Tubingen zuruckgeht, versammelt Beitrage, welche die erwahnten Rezeptionsprozesse exemplarisch in einzelnen Zentren und Regionen des romischen Reiches diskutieren.
Johannes Lipps holds a chair of Classical Archaeology and is fellow at the Gutenberg Research College at the Johannes Gutenberg-Universität at Mainz. He studied Classical archaeology and ancient history in Marburg, Rome, Bonn and Cologne. He completed his PhD in 2008 at Cologne, which was followed by an assistant professorship at LMU Munich from 2009–2014 and a junior professorship at Tübingen from 2014–2019. His research interests concern architecture, urbanism and sculpture especially in ancient Rome and the provinces. Most recently, he published the monograph Die Stuckdecke des Oecus Tetrastylos im sog. Augustushaus im Kontext antiker Deckenverzierungen (Rahden/Westf. 2018).<br/><br/>Jochen Griesbach is director of the Collection of Ancient Art in the Martin von Wagner Museum of Würzburg University since 2014. He studied Classical Archaeology, Latin and Studies of Drama, Film and TV at the universities of Cologne, Bonn, Heidelberg and Berlin (FU). His PhD thesis completed at the University of Cologne (2006) analysed the relationship between Roman villas and tombs in the surroundings of Rome. In 2011, during his assistant professorship, followed a habilitation treatise about the topography of honorific statues in Hellenistic Greece and Asia Minor at the University of Munich (LMU). His fields of research range from ancient cities and burial customs to visual culture with a particular interest in portraits. Since 2016 he is chief organizer of a research project dedicated to the marble and limestone sculptures originating from Apollonia (Albany).<br/><br/>Martin Dorka Moreno is Assistant Professor at the Institute of Classical Archaeology at Tübingen University. He studied Classical Archaeology, Ancient History, and Italian Philology at the Universities of Mainz, Heidelberg, and Berkeley (USA). His PhD was awarded by the University of Freiburg in 2016. In his thesis he analyzed the Imitatio Alexandri in images of Gods and Heroes in Graeco-Roman antiquity. From 2012 to 2016 he was an academic member of the Collaborative Research Center 948 Heroes – Heroizations – Heroisms at the University of Freiburg. His current focus lies on the ›Zeitgesicht‹ (“period face”) in Roman private portraits from the City of Rome and the sculpture production of the Roman North-West Provinces. His research interests include ancient sculpture, Roman portraits and ancient visual culture.
