With Idols, Annie Caubet, archaeologist and Curator Emeritus of the
Louvre, takes readers on an aesthetic journey across time and
space. Caubet surveys the beginnings of human figurative imagery
from 4000-2000 BCE, as the Neolithic Era's ambiguous
three-dimensional figures developed and spread across the world,
from the Iberian peninsula to the Indus Valley, from the gates of
the Atlantic to the confines of the Far East. Caubet's book traces
an artistic revolution that would shape the rest of human history,
as the idol (from the Greek eidolon, or image) evolved to represent
and express power, myth and belief in the human form. Idols climbs
mountains, treks through steppes and deserts and braves oceans and
seas to reveal networks of connections, a commonality of perception
and contacts between remote lands at the dawn of anthropomorphic
figurative culture.
