The Elgin Marbles: Should They be Returned to Greece?

The Elgin Marbles were designed to adorn the Parthenon. In 1801 Lord Elgin had pieces of the frieze removed and sent to Britain. This work recounts the history of these sculptures and makes the case for their return to Greece, drawing out the moral and political perspectives of the argument.
