Sculpture was at the center of theoretical debates concerning the relative merits of the different arts, the differences between ancient and modern art, and the relationship between art and nature. Rome was a major center for these theoretical debates, as well as a locus for patronage and collecting. Sculptors from all over Europe came to Rome to study the remains of the antique past and to practice their art. \u003ci\u003eCritical Perspectives on Roman Baroque Sculpture\u003c\/i\u003e stakes out a new frontier of research on seventeenth-century sculpture in Rome--a frontier that looks well beyond attributional and technical questions, instead focusing on questions of historical context and criticism including the interaction of sculptural theory and practice; the creative roles of sculptors and their patrons; the relationship of sculpture to its antique models and to contemporary painting; and problems of contextual meaning and reception.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAside from the editors, the contributors are Michael Cole, Julia K.
