The work of Michaelis, _Der Parthenon_ (Leipzig, 1871), collects the material for the study of the Parthenon, and contains an excellent digest of all that had been written on the subject up to the year 1871. For later writers, see below _passim_, and Wolters. For the chronology of Pheidias, see Loeschcke, in _Untersuchungen A. Schaefer gewidmet_, p. 25; for the question as to his master, see Klein, _Arch.-Epigr. Mittheilungen aus Oesterreich_, VII., p. 64; Murray, _Greek Sculpture_, 2nd ed., p. 186. For the older temple on the site of the Parthenon, see Doerpfeld, in _Athenische Mittheilungen_, XII., p. 45; Harrison, _Mythology of Anc. Athens_, p. 467. The plan given above is taken from Michaelis. Important modifications have been proposed by Doerpfeld, _Athenische Mittheilungen_, VI., pl. 12, p. 283; Harrison, _loc. cit._, p. 464. For the mediæval history of the Parthenon, see Laborde; _Athènes aux XV^e, XVI^e, et XVII^e Siècles_ (Paris, 1854); Gregorovius, _Athen im Mittelalter_ (1889). Facsimiles of Carrey's drawings are in the British Museum, and have been partially published in the works of Laborde, _Le Parthénon_ (Paris, 1848). For photographic copies of the drawings of the pediments, see _Antike Denkmäler_, I., pls. 6, 6a. Dalton's views of the Acropolis were published in 1751, but the remains of Athens were little known till the appearance of _The Antiquities of Athens_, by James Stuart and Nicolas Revett. (London: vol. I., 1762; vol. II., 1787; vol. III., 1794; vol. IV., 1816; vol. V., 1830). A second edition, with additional matter, but having inferior illustrations, was issued in 1825-1830. The original drawings, made for this work by Pars, were presented to the British Museum by the Society of Dilettanti. The official inquiry into the proceedings of Lord Elgin is contained in the _Report from the Select Committee of the House of Commons on the Earl of Elgin's Collection of Sculptured Marbles; &c._ (London, 1816).
