Gottfried Gruben considered himself a historian who, through the methods of architectural history, treated the monument itself as a source, paying special attention to questions of religion and art, which are defining factors of Greek temples. Apart from thorough and detailed research and interdisciplinary discussion, Gruben always considered the communication of finds to the general public of paramount importance. This collection of shorter texts aims exactly at this readership. Topics include: the role of the architect and classical architectural history, the development of the Greek temple, aspects of ionian temples in the Greek isles, and present-day problems with ancient ruins. German text.
