Representations of women in the corinthian vase painting
Rašínová, Kateřina ; Verčík, Marek (advisor) ; Kroutilová Jamrichová, Zuzana (referee)
The aim of this thesis is analysis of representations of women on the Corinthian vase painting of the archaic period. While similar representations have been researched several times, the interest of researchers has been more focused on selected themes, such as the Trojan cycle, the so-called Frauenfest or komos vases also known as padded dancers in the case of the Corinthian black-figure vases. This work will be focused on iconographic description of women. I will characterize the development of individual motifs or scenes and compositions throughout the whole archaic period - also on proto-corinthian vases if necesarry - with regard to the shape, function and context of use of the vessels with these representations. I am going to try to identify their semantic meaning in reliation to the social and cultural context of Corinth in the 7th and 6th century BCE. I will compare the defined coventions with the depictions of women on contemporary Attic black-figure vases in cunclusion.
