But how else can we measure monumentality? Bringing together researchers from various fields such as archaeology, museology, history, sociology, Mesoamerican studies, and art history, this book discusses terminological and methodological approaches in both theoretical contributions and various case studies. While focusing on architectural aspects, this volume also discusses the social meaning of monuments, the role of forced and free labour, as well as textual monumentality. The result is a modern interdisciplinary take on an important concept which is notoriously difficult to define. 146 1 09 23 2019 07 30 2019 978-3-8376-4538-5 978-3-8394-4538-9 transcript Verlag Bielefeld, Germany https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ 10.14361/9783839445389 https://www.transcript-open.de/isbn/4538 https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.14361/9783839445389/pdf https://transcript.degruyter.com/view/title/547742 Sebastian Hageneuer Sylva van der Heyden 09 23 2019 07 30 2019 65 90 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ 10.14361/9783839445389-005 https://www.transcript-open.de/doi/10.14361/9783839445389-005 https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.14361/9783839445389-005/pdf https://transcript.degruyter.com/view/book/9783839445389/10.14361/9783839445389-005.xml https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.14361/9783839445389-005/xml
