Excerpt from Select Passages From Ancient Writers, Illustrative of the History of Greek Sculpture Edited With a Translation and Notes The History of Greek Sculpture, 600-323 B.C., forms one of the subjects of examination in the classical school at Oxford. The only collection of ancient authorities on this subject available for study is that of Overbeck (Die antiken Schriftquellen zur Geschichte der bildenden Künste bei den Griechen, Leipzig, 1868). Since this work aims at completeness, it contains some thousands of passages which are not necessary for such study of Greek sculpture as is required of University students, while, on the other hand, it provides neither translation nor commentary. I have, therefore, at the request of Professor Gardner, selected such passages as appeared from their intrinsic interest or difficulty to require special study by those offering the subject for examination, adding some few to which attention has been called since the publication of Overbeck's work.
