Press Udgivelsesår: 1994 Looks at the influence of ancient Egypt on art, architecture and design in Europe from the time of the Roman Empire, through the Renaissance and up until the start of the twentieth century. Titel: Egyptomania : the Egyptian revival: a recurring theme in the history of taste Genre: Faglitteratur Sammendrag: In this beautifully illustrated book Professor Curl offers a comprehensive guide to the numerous revivals of the Egyptian style from Antiquity to the present day. This pioneering and definitive work analyses the influence of Ancient Egypt on art, architecture, design, and religion, and outlines the astonishing persistence of Egyptomania themes throughout two thousand years of the History of Taste. The author develops a lively argument throughout the book, focusing on his case that the Egyptian civilization is central, rather than peripheral, to the development of European culture. Egyptomania charts the persistence of Egyptian motifs in design from Ancient Greece and Rome, through the Medieval and Renaissance periods, and into Neo-classicism after the Napoleonic campaigns in Egypt at the end of the eighteenth century. It goes on to trace the rise of Egyptology in the nineteenth century, the twentieth-century Art Deco movement influenced by the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb, and subsequent Egyptinising tendencies, to the present day.
