Abstract:
Leisure typically has been regarded as a positive component in people's lives, and evidence points to its central rather than peripheral role in lifestyle. Further, studies of leisure suggest it is conducive to psychological well-being, to physical health, and to the stability of social groups. The extent to which people are able to reach this potential very much depends on leisure's role in lifestyle, the experience of leisure, and whether conditions in a consumption-oriented society facilitate such positive outcomes. For many, leisure in consumption-oriented lifestyles holds symbolic m

Abstract:
The subject of this thesis is the relationship between Italian Baroque sculpture of the seventeenth century - principally the work of Gianlorenzo Bernini - and Hellenistic sculpture of the third to fIrst centuries BCE. During the late-eighteenth and nineteenth centuries the art of each period faced criticism for having subverted the classical tradition - the most damning accusation of which a work of art could stand accused. Yet Bernini would have been astonished to be labelled as non-classical. He studied in the classical collections of Papal Rome and his work was acclaimed by contemporaries
