Beschreibung
The meaning of action in figurative imagery is conveyed through bodily posture,
placing the depicted figures ¿ humans, gods, or hybrids ¿ in relation within
coherent visual narratives. Especially for societies with few deciphered texts, the
analysis of gesture, posture, movement, and facial expression is crucial for
understanding ancient ¿webs of significance¿. With 29 papers from a conference held
in Heidelberg in 2021, this volume examines ¿body language¿ in Minoan Crete and
Mycenaean Greece and proposes new ways of interpreting non-verbal communication in
Aegean Bronze Age iconography.
