Book Title: Making “Meaning”: Precolumbian Archaeology, Art History, and the Legacy of Terence Grieder

Authors: James Farmer and Rex Koontz

Book Description: The book examines the work of Terence Grieder, an early pre-Columbian art historian of wide-ranging interests and often provocative stances. His students and other intellectual descendants discuss his major ideas through examples drawn from their own work. The work of those he mentored is in the end the most important testament to his continuing influence in the field.
