About "A Wonder to Behold"

Colin Delaney

I composed this "short paper" for Prof. Gregory Crane's Spring 1997 class "Olympia & Delphi"at Tufts University, Medford, MA, USA, using the Perseus online database and traditional texts. I also consulted the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World Website.

Texts consulted include:

  • Spivey, Nigel. Understanding Greek Sculpture: Ancient Readings, Modern Meanings. London: Thames and Hudson, 1996.
  • Richter, Gisela M.A.. The Sculpture and Sculptors of the Greeks. New Haven: Yale University Press, 1950.
