I templi greci - le tipologie

During the Archaic Period, the various types of Greek temple plans were developed: the earthly dwellings of the gods. In pursuit of rationality, overall harmony, and mathematical proportion, the Greeks created different typologies, testifying to their strong connection with the deities (in this video, I also introduce the 12 gods of Homer's Olympus). Temple in antis, doubly in antis, prostyle, amphiprostyle, peripteral, pseudoperipteral, dipteral, pseudodipteral, tholos, or monopteral: these have difficult names but easy characteristics to identify and recognize (once and for all!). 00:00 The Archaic Period and the Formation of Colonies 03:12 The Creation of a Typology with Mathematical Proportions 05:17 The Temple: Earthly Home of the Gods 06:13 Greek Religion: The Gods of Olympus 10:48 Statues: Men, Heroes, or Gods? 12:06 The Form of Temples: Simple, Balanced, Rational 13:54 Naos and Pronaos: Religious Rituals 17:00 Vitruvius and De Architectura 18:31 Different Types of Temples in Plan 19:25 Temple in Antis 22:40 Temple in Double Antis 24:44 Prostyle Temple 26:25 Amphiprostyle Temple 27:37 Peripteral Temple 29:18 Pseudoperipteral Temple 30:06 Dipteral Temple 30:58 Pseudodipteral Temple 31:13 Tholos Temple 32:01 Monopteral Temple
