Ars et Verba die Kunstbeschreibungen des Kallistratos : Einführung, Text, Übersetzung, Anmerkungen, archäologischer Kommentar = Ars et Verba. The Description of Art by Kallistratos - Bäbler, Balbina 1967-; Nesselrath, Heinz-Günther 1957- (De Gruyter, 2006)
Main description: In Late Antiquity the otherwise unknown rhetor Callistratus wrote a series - unique in its kind - of fourteen descriptions of works of art (mostly statues), thus enabling us to gain remarkable insights into late antique views on Classical Greek Art. The volume presented here contains a revised Greek text of the collection, its first German translation since 1833 and the first complete archaeological commentary ever on Callistratus' work
