Prehistoric imagery is enigmatic and has been largely overlooked by archaeologists; it is only in the last two decades that it has garnered serious academic attention. This volume addresses this lacuna and discusses visual expression across Neolithic Europe. The papers in this volume result from a meeting of the Neolithic Studies Group on the topic of Neolithic visual culture at the British Museum in November 2010. The intention of the meeting was to assess new studies of rock art from across Britain and Ireland; and to compare these with studies of Neolithic visuality from continental Europe. Here; the scope of the original meeting is widened; and includes further papers to provide a broader context and more coherent analysis of prehistoric expressionism. The volume is organised so that the rock art and passage tomb art traditions of the Neolithic in Britain and Ireland are compared for the first time to the rock art traditions of Northern and Southern Europe; with the mortuary costumes and figurines of South-eastern Europe.

Great technique; long bookBy Tyler SeipleThe Levins have given theatre artists a great way to understand and apply Stanislavskis acting technique; most of which is completely explained in the first section. The remaining five sections are largely an in-depth analysis of "The Cherry Orchard;" which is not necessarily useful for the artist looking for a more general approach to acting. However; the sum lessons of the book are definitely worth the purchase price; and all those interested in theatre performance would benefit from perusing this book.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. First Acting bookBy CustomerThis was the first acting book I ever read. I got it when I was around 14 years old and have never forgotten it. Very useful. Was a great primer before diving into An Actor Prepares.
