The Parallel Worlds of Classical Art and Text considers the relationship between artists and texts throughout classical antiquity. Systematically applying new and objective criteria judging the fidelity between picture and text, she argues artists illustrated stories, not texts, and that artistic transmissions follow the model of oral, not textual, transmission.
