HELLENIC VS HELLENISTIC PERIOD
Duygu Özkan ASL1-1



VS

The Apollo Belvedere
...
Even though
they are two different periods, since Hellenistic period is adding up to Hellenic, there
are similarities
...
I chose
Historical/ Political, Geographic, Social, Ethical/ Moral and Artistic/ Aesthetic lenses
to compare and contrast
...
Also, they are geographically
isolated, which means they’re not affected much from other societies
...
Not only those arts, but their sculptures also are not
affected
...
Since their belief is based on humanism, in sculptures
(Artistic/ Aesthetic) are about showing human greatness and are samples are
humanistic ideals
...
Historically and
politically, it starts after Alexander the Great dies and they are not city- states
anymore; they’re tyranny
...
As a result, their social life arts and ethics go through some changes
...
In ethical/ moral way, cosmopolitan structure causes the God figures to be
more Godly
...
This might sound controversy, but Gods are not humanistic
...
Also, the Gods are realistic in some way too
...
That’s why, I chose Warrior for Hellenic Period,
and The Apollo Belvedere for Hellenistic period
...
Which is, they are both gigantic; The Apollo Belvedere is 224cm and the
Warrior is 198 cm
...
I especially chose those two sculptures to show this
...
As I mentioned before, its
198 cm tall, it averagely is made between 460-450 BCE and it has been found in Italy
in early 1970’s
...

This actually means so much
...
By showing a Warrior
with perfect ideals, is actually a great way to historically and politically
...
That’s why, people were lack of
patriot feelings and society union in a way the state wanted
...
Other than that, this sculpture also has
remarks of the humanism belief
...
Lastly, in
social lense, it can be said that it didn’t affect much from the outsiders
...
It had made
approximately in 120–140 CE and it is 224cm
...
He’s the God of lots
of things, but best known as of sun, light, poetry and art
...
Firstly, it has the marks of real,
realistic form
...
It is not subjective and only inside the
Greeks anymore; it has been stained with other societies’ cultures
...
However, it’s certain that Hellenistic Period lead to
something even newer, that’s why I believe it’s as important as the Hellenic Period
...
It shows that there is a quite controversy as in morality and its
reflection to the art, in Hellenic vs
...

As a result, from all the things I explained in this essay, we can see the
comparison and contrasts between Hellenic Period (510 BCE- 323 BCE )and
Hellenistic Period (323 BCE- 146 BCE)
...
